Chapter 8 - Chapter 8

Congratulations to all the senior students in Roselyn international highschool.

Your results will be out in two weeks the principal announced.

Okay ma'am we all chorused. Okay you all can go congratulations once again.

Uhm Lily? I won't be going home with you guys I have something important to do Damien said and left.

Something's definitely wrong with him but I asked him so many times now and he always says nothing is wrong.

Kelly and i went home together

So what now? What do you mean what now? we'll wait for our acceptance letter to college.

Few weeks later…..

Lily? Lily were gonna be late let's go.

We can't be late Kelly please let me have breakfast in peace.

What if our result gets distributed to someone else? It won't it'll have our name on it stop being paranoid.

But… jeez okay let's go. We arrived at school to see others already collected their result.

We went to the principal's office and was surprised to see Damien mom there.

Oh Lily I was just about to head to your house she said with a weird look on her face.

Is something wrong ma'am? and where is Damien? I'll explain everything later, I'll wait for you outside.

Miss parker and miss William this is your result the principal said handing Kelly and I a sheet of paper.

I'm not gonna check it here I'll check it when I get home home Kelly said looking nervous.

I checked mine and almost screamed. I have B+ on everything!!

Congrats bestie. Kelly should check yours too I urged.

She reluctantly did and her expression was priceless. Mine is B and C I only have a d in maths. Congrats girl.

Amelia? Damien mom waved at us and I went to her

How is your result girls? Its good ma'am, and where is Damien?

Suddenly her expression changed.

Damien went back to Italy yesterday. My heart dropped at the news.

Okay when will he be back?

Actually not anytime soon. He went there for college.

He he…isn't coming back? He told me not to tell you but I couldn't bear to.

Lily are you okay? Are you crying? No I'm not I just…. let's get out of here Kelly said dragging me home.

I didn't take the news well and cried for several days locking myself in my room. Mom and Kelly tried everything to cheer me up but nothing did.

You have to learn to move on Amelia he's gone and gone for good, you have to move on with your life Kelly said.

She was right but it was easier said than done. I did different kind of things to distract myself but I always found myself thinking about him.

One day mom came in holding a letter and smiling like she won the lottery. What's going on mom why are you so happy? Look what I found in the mail honey.

She handed me the letter and I gasped. I was accepted to the university of my dreams.

Congratulations honey.

Thanks mom i….. Lily? Lily! Kelly barged in also holding the same letter.

You're accepted too? Congratulations to us bestie.

Now all that's left is to go shopping and buy the necessary things youll be needing.

Can I come along? I have my moms credit card with me

You shop for hours Kelly I don't wanna go with you.

That's because you have awful taste in things.

You'll need my help in buying things she said with a proud smile

Okay girls let's go.

We shopped for hours trying on different outfits and by the time we were done it was six

"Gosh this is so heavy" Kelly whined carrying four shopping bags and I carried three

I can't wait to get home and check this stuffs out

New York city here I come!!
