 EMERSON

So, my days are passing by so quickly that my graduation day has finally arrived. I was eagerly waiting for this day, and now I find myself in the auditorium, adorned with balloons. Everyone is happy; my friends are busy taking selfies. Later tonight, we have a graduation party at a nightclub.

I miss Jules; I wish she could be here. There's a sense of melancholy about this place as I carry both good and challenging memories with me. However, I have something to look forward to: my job in Italy. I've secured a great job there, and though I told my parents I'd meet them after graduation, I feel that going there will lighten my spirits. I'll meet new people.

Lost in my thoughts, I realize Alina is looking at me suspiciously. "What are you thinking about?" she asks. "Nothing," I reply. "So, you're coming to the nightclub?" she inquires. "Yup, I also want some fun," I say. She raises an eyebrow, and I clarify, "Just regular fun."

Alina gives me a creepy look, which I dislike. I decide to text Jules,curious why she hasn't congratulated me since my graduation. Maybe she's busy, but two weeks without a message seems odd. I brush off the thought, reminding myself of work.

Back home, Emily catches me searching my wardrobe. "What are you looking for?" she asks. "Sharks in my wardrobe?" I joke. "No, just clothes," I reply. She suggests a glittery black gown, beautiful and sexy,for the nightclub. "Well, I don't think I have to wear this. You have to wear it; it suits you," she said. "But don't you think it's gonna be a bit awkward or something?""No, it's not. It seems like it is made for you," she reassured. I thanked her, grabbing the dress from her. I decided to wear it right away. After choosing the dress, I already had a pair of black heels that were perfect for it. I really wanted to forget everything that happened between me and Gary. I wanted to be happy. I put on some makeup, and Emily helped me with my hairstyle. I ordered a cab and went to the club.

The club looked amazing. The first time I came to a club in Germany was fascinating. Girls were chattering, wearing some glittery gowns that looked amazing. I felt proud of Emily's choice. The atmosphere was fantastic, with boys and girls dancing on the dance floor. Alina saw me from beneath the table and waved at me. She was holding hands with Gabriel, her latest boyfriend.

Before Gary, in third grade, my boyfriend and I broke up because he put chewed gum in my hair – the worst type of love I ever experienced.

After that, I never fell in love with someone because I love my hair. But now, I realized the heart is more important than hair.Suddenly, I saw Evan, as always, standing in a group of boys. I never see him with a girl, and I'm so sad about what happen to his mother . Now if he brings the justices he also gonna lose his father but I admire how strong he is facing alot with a smile on his face he told me he will continue this field just to bring justice otherwise he left this place right after then .I was thinking of him, and I didn't realize that I was actually staring at him. So, he starts coming towards me.

"Hi!" he said. "Hello," I replied. "Congratulations," he said. "You too.Finally, our hard days are completed," I replied. "Yup, what's your plan?"he asked. "I didn't get you," I asked. "I mean future plans, jobs, etc.," hereplited. "Yup, I got a job in Italy. So, even if I want to continue my studies, it should be there."

"Well, nice. You've come so far; you are an intelligent student," he complimented. I had heard praise from teachers, but when Evan praised me, it felt so good. I remembered he praised my painting, but I think I need to stop myself because I have to start a new journey."
