At one table we saw my old friends seating. Teena, Gerald, and Shawn. Troy and I walked towards them.
"Good eveing. Thank you for coming." I smiled with genuine happiness.
Teena stood up. "Oh Jill congratulations." She hugged me.
"Thank you." I answered.
"Congratulations Troy." Gerald also stood up and shook Troy's hand.
"Thank you for coming." Troy answered.
Shawn stood as well. He was looking at me, still with affection.
"Congratulations Jill. You look so beautiful." Shawn said to me.
"Thank you Shawn." I look at him and smiled. I gave him a hug. "I'm so happy you're here. You know how much this means to me."
"I know." Shawn hugged me back.
"Ahem." I hear Troy cough. I ended the hug and smiled at Troy.
"Congratulations Troy." Shawn said extending his hand.
Troy took it and shake it. "Thank you."
"You still remember what I said, right?" Shawn said. They were not letting go of each other's hands yet.
