"You sure you graduating already?"
"Dad I'm positive I'm walking the stage." I said, as I placed my Green graduation cap on my head. My golden tassels dangled in my face, only making a bigger smile form on my face.
"Awee baby you look so good." I heard Crystal say from behind me. I turned around to see her eyes glossy.
"Awww Crystal don't cry." I giggled, as I felt the tears at the brim of my eyes.
"Awww Tiana if you cry you going to mess yup your pretty make up." She whined and fanned my face with her hand.
I giggled, attempting to hold the tears back.
"Alright Tiana go make us proud and cross that stage." My father said, patting my back.
I smiled and walked off into the room where they was holding all the seniors. We weren't allowed to leave this area until graduation officially started.
"Ahhh Look my bestie!!" Destiny squealed, she ran over to me and pulled me into a hug. I hugged her back making sure not to hug her too tight.
"Look we all graduating and that's on period." I heard Kentrell say.
"They having a after party after this, y'all tryna go?" Zaria asked.
We all scrunched our faces up as we looked at her.
"Girl can we cross the stage and grab the fucking diploma first?" Kevin said.
"Kevin shut up I was just asking." Zaria rolled her eyes, waving him off.
"Did Trey bring Antonio?" I said lowly so that only destiny can hear me.
"Yeah and his sister and niece."
"Can the class of 2020 please report to the stage."
A huge smile formed on my face hearing that.
"We finna be out this bitch!" Kentrell screamed, as he walked out the door way.
We walked down a long hallway, Two in a row. Destiny walked next to me mumbling sweet things while she rubbed her stomach.
As soon as we walked out the door way into the big dome, people began cheering and clapping making a smile form on my face.
Ahead of me I seen Kentrell jigging with Kevin on his side making me bust out into laughter.
"They always doing something stupid I swear." I said, to destiny.
"Agreed."
We walked in-front of a row of chairs and sat down on the ones with our names on them. Kentrell and Kevin where on the right side of me while destiny was on the left. Zaria and Kourtny sadly where a row behind us.
The principal walked up and grabbed the microphone making the butterfly's swim in my stomach.
I was beyond excited.
"Class of 2020 you have been remarkable to teach and I wish you the best for the rest of your lives, We ask that you hold you your clapping and yelling tell after every name is called, since this is a small school we asked each staff member who knew each student to write something about that student. Alright First up Maria-" after she said the girls name I zoned out.
I saw destiny in the corner of my eyes whipping off her sweaty hands on her gown.
"Destiny it's ok." I grabbed one of her hands and intertwined it with mine. I felt her relax for a little while then get nervous all over again.
"What if I fall?" She mumbled.
"They you get back up and walk it off like the bad bitch you are."
"What if I throw up?"
"Destiny-."
"Alright my bad."
"Kentrell Noel Brock, Is a heat student he makes others smile and is the class clown in all his classes, He usually sleeps or is making a "YouTube video." Come get your diploma." The principal said.
"THATS MY NAPPY HEAD BABY!!" I heard someone hollar from the stands making everyone bust out into laughter.
Kentrell walked up the stairs, then across the stage shaking everyone's hand. He grabbed his diploma and went strait for the microphone.
"Sir-"
"Mam, Anyways Im Kentrell and I just wanna you know." Kentrell said, cutting off the principal.
He took his phone out and turned it towards us.
"Say class of 2020!!" He hollered.
"Class of 2020!" We all Hollered back.
"Kevin Dares parfait."
Kevin got up and skipped onto the stage, instead of doing what everyone did he didn't shake none of the teachers hand and instead just grabbed his diploma.
"Y'all teachers ain't teach me shit! And miss hunter bitch you nosy as fuck!" He hollered as he walked off the stage.
The dome was filled with laughter and claps.
"Well alright then, Christiana Nicole Michaud, one of our top students she played baseball and volleyball for our school, she's always gave a A effort in all of her class, and was nominated as the best student of the year. Please come up and get your diploma."
Everyone began to clap making my stomach curl and turn. I was so nervous, life if I was gonna fall or trip over my own two feet.
I walked slowly out of the row and walked up the stairs, making sure to go one foot at a time.
As soon I got onto the stage is when I heard the cheering and clapping from everyone.
"that's my best friend and that's on period!!" I heard destiny holler.
"My baby all grown up!" I Heard Zaria say.
"that's my Princess right there forever a daddy's girl!"
"Ayee bae get that diploma!"
I smiled and grabbed the diploma out of Our principals hand, as soon as I grabbed it the principal waved me off.
Bitch better be lucky I ain't gotta see her no more...
I walked down the other side of the stage getting back in the seat with my name on it.
College here I come....
—— Part two tomorrow...
