"Congrats Lily!"
Neo's ecstatic voice rose above the loud clapping noise that filled the large room as he climbed the podium. He was called upon as the winner of third place in the test but he was more concerned with hugging his best friend who came first place.
"Congrats too Neo!"
Lily's equally joyous voice cut through the noise, hugging him so tightly with her arms around his neck. She clung onto him so firmly, not only out of happiness but for physical support. Her entire body shook, vibrated, threatening to land her on her ass. She wanted to scream, frantically run her fingers through her hair like a mad woman and jump repeatedly, but for the sake of her image, she held onto Neo to provide her with some calm.
"That's enough."
