„For our dear Lila! And her future! I love you so much sweetie!" - My dad yelled while giving toast. I wished that Felix was with us too.

„Should I call Felix on FaceTime? I didn't tell him yet." - I asked even though I already know the answer.

„I'm pretty sure that it's late in Australia now. You will tell him tomorrow." - My mom responds with a bit harsh voice.

The end of the day was filled with laughter and happiness.

„I'm going to celebrate with Carrie and Alex. I will be late if I don't leave soon." - With saying that I rushed to my room.

„Watch yourself, Lila! Okay? I will drop you off."

„Okay, dad. I need five minutes." - I'm yelling while I try on the first thing that came under my hand.

I don't think that I will be out for too long. Since I stopped going out on college, every night out is harder for me to handle. Girls got drunk way more before me so I usually go home before the club closes.

„I'm so glad that you got out of that black hole Lil'! I hope you know that. I'm not saying that you can't go out anymore... but I'm just glad that you decided to finish college on time. I am so proud of you. I love you, my little girl." - As he was saying that, a tear streamed down my face.

Carrie and Alex were already in front of the club, nervously waiting for me.

„Congrats Lila! Our smarty-pants!" - Alex yelled at me and hugged me even before I got to say anything.

Carrie was a waitress in a local Caffe while Alex worked in a supermarket. We've known each other since we were little girls. We all lived in the same neighbourhood but after some years, Alex's mom divorced her father so she had to move to the other side of London. Carrie is two streets from me but we didn't get to see each other so often as we wish for because of all the work and my college commitments.

But still, we were inseparable. Every one of us is different but we get along so well. Opposites do attract.

„Today we are staying 'till the dawn! Okay?! You don't graduate every day. This is so worth it! - Carrie was trying to convince me while dancing with loud beats in the full club.

„Only because you're asking me so nicely. We're going to dance our asses off!"

DJ of the Club began to play songs that are all of a sudden my suit. The rhythm did not allow me to stop, and small shots of Tequila were just coming. Carrie found her victim five minutes after arrival to the Club while Alex never approved of her boys for one night.

Alex was calm. A quiet girl until she drank her eighth shot of tequila. Then comes "Alex who has no rules". I love both versions of her. I admire her for surviving through her parents' divorce better than they did. Ever since I've known her, she's been so independent and fearless.

"I'm so hot girls! I don't know if it's from that hot, curly-looking guy, or I've had too much to drink. "- loudly yells Carrie even though we don't hear her because of the loud music.

"Let's do one for Instagram!" - Alex tells us as she unsuccessfully attempts to set up a mobile phone for a selfie.

"Since when do you put anything on Instagram that are not depressing lyrics from the Eighties Alex?" - I ask her with a smile even though I know that this is Alex - no Rules.

"Please shut up L! There's a first time for everything! Here, I'll dedicate a description to you! "- Says no Rules.

She adds some harmless effects and drunkenly writes under the image:
