There will come a day by which you will look back at it all and see that what broke you only made you stronger

Third Person's POV

"You can do it" Azad says to the girl who was pacing back and forth

"No i can't" Amal states

"Well you did not just make me take a long ass trip to come here, just for you to bail" Azad says while trying to make the child in her feel comfortable while Amal rolled her eyed

"Well i didn't force you to come but you wanted to" Amal states making her sister roll her eyes so sometimes Azad dislikes that her sister is a smartass but she wouldn't change her for anything in the world to be honest.

"Because it is your big day,go, you're graduating and seat back down dummy" Azad states while trying to hold up her son who was making grabby hands at his aunt...her little nephew loves her way too much even though he barely sees her due to them leaving in an entirely different location and country.

"Give him to me" Amal says wanting to use this as an excuse to not attend her own graduation

"No!,go we will be cheering for you" Azad states making Amal frown

"We?,who are this we that you are speaking about?" Amal asks with wide eyes

"Oh you know, just a couple of aunts and uncles and their kids" Azad states making her sisters eyes to widen in shock, of course they are all here having a large family is one thing, but having Asian relatives is another thing, they tend to make everything more dramatic than it is and honestly she doesn't know whether to label it as. A good or bad or maybe even both!.

"Oh my God, why would they all come it's not like I am getting married" Amal states in disbelief making her sister smile.

"If you think yours is bad, well you should have seen my graduation" Azad states with a fond smile as she remembers the memory.

"What happened during your graduation?" Amal asks with wide eyes sadly she couldn't attend it due to her uncles death Amal and her mom had to go and visit her aunt.

"Does it matter?, we are all here for you, now go before they notice that their very own valedictorian is missing" Azad states sternly making her sister roll her eyes before leaning in to kiss her nephew on the cheek, he let's out a giggle at the gesture,making her smile before she embraces both of them making her sister let out a surprised sound.

"Thank you" Amal mutters

"I"m proud of you sister" Azad states before Amal her sister spun around running down the hallways

"Your aunt is crazy, but please be like her" Azad says to her child who doesn't understand a word his mother was saying.

Azad started to make her way back towards where the graduation ceremony was holding, she apologizes as she steps on some peoples foots before she finally reached where she was previously seated.

"Where did you go?" Abtal asks as his wife finally turns her attention to him

"Amal" Azad says making him frown

"Oh di-

"I mean Amal" Azad states pointing towards her sister who had gotten up and started to make her way towards the stage making her big family to go wild at the news.

Amal's cheeks reddens at the attention her family was dragging to her but she wasn't embarrassed,she was happy that she had people to cheer her on, the only person who did that was......nevermind about that, she smiles collecting her own certificate shaking the woman who presented it to her everything turned into a blur for her.
