A few months of hardwork and studying, it was finally the day before graduation, and Hyagura was more than thrilled, she couldn't wait to tell her parents everything. She smiled happily in front of the mirror as she fixed her hair and smoothened down her shirt. She grabbed her bag from the counter, bid her roommate goodbye before setting of to see her parents.

"Ma, Pa, I'm graduating tomorrow." She smiled as she lit the candles she brought for them. Setting the bouquet of white roses down, she wiped the tears forming at the rim of her eyes. "I'm sorry I couldn't visit you as often as before. I mean, I tried. But I was too busy, I fe— I feel horrible. I'm so sorry..." She sobbed, tears flowing like a river down her flushed cheeks, her nose was already red and runny. She laughed as she fanned herself to stop herself from crying, yet she couldn't help but pour everything out.

Hyagura was ruined but she was impressed that she kept a smile on for the past few years of mourning. Her family was wrecked, she had no siblings, her mother didn't have siblings as well and her father's brother didn't know about her nor did they know about how her father was. Her grandparents were gone and no one could support her, that's why she was studying hard. Her roommate was nice enough to lend her money monthly and pay her share of the bills. That's why she wanted to get a scholarship, so that she wouldn't burden her roommate anymore. She wanted to repay the people who helped her big time. So, she wanted to work hard and move abroad. But something changed her mind, not something, someone. As Hyagura wiped her tears, she smiled and laughed again.

"You know the boy I talked about two months ago? His name is Yuta. He makes my heart beat a thousand times faster, makes my stomach spawn hundreds of butterflies within a second, makes my face flush as red as your lipstick Ma, he also makes me go crazy and stutter horribly." She chuckled, and grinned. "I think I like him, but I don't think the feelings are mutual." Her smile faltered as it was replaced with frown. She truly was oblivious, and if her father was there he would probably tell her to stay away from Yuta as a joke. But he wouldn't, and she wouldn't as well.

Hyagura shook her negative thoughts off as she told more stories to her parents, knowing they were listening.
