"REMY SANTANA!"
i walked across the stage smiling to myself as i heard people screaming for me. i was handed my diploma and i shook some people's hands and walked off the stage.

"you did it baby! i'm so proud of you" my mom gushed hugging me for the millionth time today. "i know ma.." i trailed off as she slowly let go. "i'm just so proud of you that's all, alright i'm sorry let's go back outside" she said heading to the backyard. my family decided to have a graduation party for me and my bestfriend, valentina. both of our families attended so my backyard was kind of packed.
going into the backyard i spotted valentina. she was talking to my friend raven . raven graduated from my school when i was a sophomore but we created my bond before she left. she's currently married with a child and they're such a beautiful family. i was about to walk over to them until my arm was grabbed and i was pulled backwards so hard that i almost fell. when i regained my balance i looked to see my boyfriend, cameron standing infront of me .
"where were you for the past ten minutes ?" he said sternly. i rolled my eyes knowing he couldn't do anything infront of everyone, "i was upstairs with my mom"
"remy-"
"we not doing this right now, you can check with my mom to see if i'm lying if you want i dont care nigga" i said walking away and going over to valentina and raven. "bitchhhhh you look goooood" raven gushes smacking my ass making it jiggle .
before i could even respond i heard my mom calling me over . i looked over and next to her was her old friend from alabama, fatima . i haven't seen her since we moved from alabama to new york when i was 12. i walked over to them, "yeah ma, hi fatima"
"hi baby" fatima smiled at me and looked to her right and grabbed a boy that had his back to her, "boy if you don't get ya ass!" she pulled him next to her . he was lightskin with dreads hanging infront of his face. "remy i don't know if you remember nick but you two used to hang out when you were younger"
i nodded my head, "yeah i remember , hey nick". he licked his lips and looked me up and down, "wassup". "well i'm sure you two have so much to catch up on so we'll leave you two to it" my mom said and her and fatima walked away.
first of all, i haven't seen this boy in about 6 years, what do we have to catch up on ? nothing important or relevant.
"how you been?" i heard nick ask me. "good.. you?" i said clearly bored with this conversation. "i'm valid. so you got pretty smart since i last saw you huh?" he joked. "what?"
"ucla is legit school, you was kinda dumb when we were friends". i rolled my eyes playfully, "i was still smarter than ya ass, i was in regular classes while you and manny was in the slow classes" i laughed. "get the fuck out only manny was in those classes"
we laughed until i decided to ask, "where is manny anyway?". nick sighed, "locked up". i gasped, "for ?"
"i don't remember, some dumb shit" he replied. i nodded looking away . there wasn't much to talk about so we just sat in there in an uncomfortable silence until he spoke again, "so ya arm okay?". i looked at him confused, "yeah.. why wouldn't it be ?"
"i don't know, i saw ole dude pull ya arm and you almost fell so". "oh nah i'm good, thats just my boyfriend cameron, he was just worried because i had left with my mom for a bit without saying anything" i reassured him and he nodded.
"nick! i gotta sthow you sthomething" some brown skin boy called out to nick. nick chuckled, "i'm coming". he then turned to me, "uh ill talk to you later ight?"
"yeah ight" i said and he walked over to his friends. they was cute, except that nigga with the lisp, he was ugly as hell. i looked at nick smiling softly, he got cuter since we were 12 . before i stared for too long i left and went over to my own friends.
