-Jason, we need to go! – Jason's mother called him from the car.
-Joanna, you must wait for me! – He hugged her one more time.
-You have to come back, or I will marry another guy 15 years later! – Joanna said with teardrops falling down on her cheeks.
-I will! – He raised his hand to clean her teardrops.
-I will be strong and wait for you!
-Everything will be okay! – He kissed on her forehead.
-Jason, we will miss the flight! – Jason's father called out from inside the car.
He gave her a medal.
-This is my "promise" to you! Please keep it by your side as I am always with you. It will help me to protect you and take care of you.
He jumped on the car and got his head out of the window before the car moved.
-I will come back! – He shouted as the wheels started to spin.
-I will wait! – Joanna ran after the car.
She ran for a while and stopped when the car was nowhere to find. She held the medal tightly in her hands and believed that they would meet again in the future and he would keep his words, giving her a happy family. She believed...
-Joanna, are you okay? – Jennifer put a glass of milk on her study table.
-Oh, I am okay. Thank you, mother! – She started.
-I know that feeling, my girl! – Jennifer took a chair and sat down next to Joanna.
-Will he come back as he promised?
-I have no idea, but you can believe in him, I can see that Jason is a good guy. However, I must say that, there are many things in this large world, and everything changes day by day, so do people. A promise will be kept until the end or will be easily broken, it depends.
-I strongly believe that he will come back to marry me.
-Marry? – Jennifer rubbed Joanna's back. – Is that too early for you two to mention about that? You should focus on your studies and build a good base for yourself.
-I understand, I will study well and try my best to keep him only in my heart.
-My sweet, first loves are always the sweetest things in the world. Therefore, you should understand which one is more important to you in this period.
-Thank you so much, I know what I should do!
-So get your milk and study well, I will cook our dinner!
Jennifer closed the door and left. Joanna brought out the medal and looked at it for a while, then she nodded her head for getting motivation.
-What do we have for our dinner, mother? – Jessie came back from school.
-Wash your face and your hands, then call your sister to get into the dining room. – Jennifer replied. – We have mushroom, chicken and banana for today.
-Yup, mom! Is she studying?
-Yes, she is in a hard time moving up.
-I know, we will be right by her side every time.
The time passed very fast, 10 years had gone. Joanna had won a scholarship to the Foreign Languages University and graduated with an excellent certificate. At 22, she had been in a hard decision between choosing to study abroad by a scholarship of her university or applying to work for a company or a school. She brought out the medal and looked at it for a while.
-If I study abroad, when you come back, you will not see me here. – She said to herself. – But I also want to prove that I am a strong lady by getting a Master's Degree.
After getting advice from her mother, her sister, and some friends, Joanna decided to get the scholarship. She thought that if Jason had been waiting for her near ten years, he could wait some more for her to get a new level of her life.

Joanna went to England for studying Society Research and Languages Application. In the university, she met Katrina, another Chinese researcher. Katrina was a kind lady, helping Joanna much both in her researches and her life in a foreign country. After finishing her Master's Degree, Katrina stayed in England for some more years to get a Ph.D. Degree of Society and People Research. However, people did not know that, one of the main reasons she chose to stay was Joanna. She could see that Joanna was a good lady, but innocent and easy to be bullied. She wanted to protect her younger "sister".
Three years passed, Joanna got her degree, she also wanted to stay with Katrina for getting another degree. However, the medal reminded her of the time of her, and Jason's promise was very close. She got a decision to stop her studies there and returned to China.
After returning to China, Joanna applied to be a teacher in a primary school in her province. With her certificates, she easily got the job and started her works very early. Just some weeks later, Joanna became a famous teacher in the province, with the high-tech and easy-understood way of teaching. She had many invitations to tutor for children of many rich families. However, with the heart of bringing the knowledge to all people, she rejected the invitations and continued her works in primary school.
Joanna's 27th birthday comes. She is greeted and celebrated by her family and her friends. Deeply in her heart, she still wants to have a greeting from a very special person, her first love. She could not accept anyone showing their love to her, both in China and England, because the first love always stood still in her mind and heart.
