It’s my graduation day today and I am excited because after all the hardships that I’ve been through in College this will be the best reward, before I got emotional my best friends Maddie and Pauline came running to me with their parents

“OMO! This is it! We are finally leaving this school!” Maddie said screaming

“YES! FINALLY! THIS IS IT GIRLS! I WILL MISS OUR EVERYDAY BONDING AT SCHOOL BUT I WILL LOOK FORWARD TO OUR TRAVELS IN THE FUTURE” Pauline said with excitement

They did a group hug, and went into the line were the graduating students must be, their parents looking so dashing and proud has smiles in their faces.

The ceremony has started, as usual the formal ceremony is pretty boring that Pauline almost fell asleep, and then it was time for them to receive their diplomas the three were all smiles, in their mind, finally they will be able to achieve their dreams, Amber somehow she dreams to be a lawyer someday but she’ll manage their business first, Maddie is still deciding whether it’s JYP or BigHit but she’s excited to start her career, and Pauline she has the biggest dreams among them and she is very excited to just see them unfold and come true

For them this is the beginning, they considered themselves adults with responsibilities that they must handle very well
The ceremony ended and their families decided to have dinner together, the three looks inseparable, they were too busy laughing until Amber’s phone rang

It’s her uncle calling

“Amber! Congratulations! I’m so proud of you my beautiful Amber” her uncle said a bit exaggerated with his feelings

“Uncle! I had put you on loudspeaker, mom and dad can hear you and my friends’ parents can hear you, don’t over react” Amber said their table was filled with laughter

“ Oh I’m sorry, I’m sorry, you rascal! Here, Kim wants to talk to you” her uncle said

“Amber!! Congratulations! Emily and I can’t wait to see you!” her cousin said

“Can’t wait to see you too! And thank you!” she said and when she was about to say something

“Hey!” that voice is enough to make her heart skip

Amber turned off the speaker of her phone and excused herself, its Mark; she’s been waiting for his call since this morning

“Hey” she said

“Congratulations love!” Mark said
Her parents don’t know about them, that they have feelings for each other, they don’t know about the kiss that happened while Amber was in Korea, they have a lot of explaining to do; they are waiting for the perfect time to say that their feelings kept on growing every day.

“Thank you, have you eaten yet?” Amber said while smiling, she looked back at their table and she found her two best buds eyeing her, she just smiled and signaled them to wait

“I haven’t, can you feed me?” he said and that sent shivers to her whole body

“You have hands, feed yourself” she replied not letting Mark know that she is very affected on his every actions

“Aish! What about our babies in the future? Will you not feed them?” she got shocked when Mark mentioned about babies

“Yah!! Babies? Why so advance Mark Yi-En Tuan? Are you sure that I’ll end up with you?” that was enough for Mark to say

“Listen to this, I am sure you’ll end up with me, because you are mine from the night that I kissed you, and nobody can take you away from me, arraseo? You better get here fast because I’ll be waiting for you”

That words of Mark made Amber blush, she returned to their table, she’s still talking to Mark but then the other members got the phone and started talking to her. And when it’s Jackson’s turn

“Amber! Congratulations! I’m so proud of you; I almost said it on our live broadcast earlier” Amber started laughing

“Thank you Jackson! By the way I have a friend here who wants to see you but she’s shy, can you talk to her?” Amber said and she gave the phone to Maddie

“H-hi” Maddie said

“Hey! What’s your name?” Jackson asked

“Uhm, I’m Maddie” Amber and Pauline were laughing, they knew that their friend is speechless, Maddie is a talkative and sweet person, sometimes she likes to harass her friends but right now, she can’t even form a long sentence

“What a nice name, I bet you are beautiful too” Maddie blushed and she looked at her parents, she saw her dad giving her dagger looks

“Hey, I have to go, nice talking to you” she immediately gave the phone back to Amber

“Jackson, I need to end this call, see you in a week! Bye!!”
