Graduation Night

Walk into gym and you don't say anything about the fact her hair is straight and not curly, even though you notice. But why should you notice. Really. You should've complimented her, you jackass. You tried to find her following the ceramony and you saw her, once, but then lost track of her in the crowd again. Maybe you shouldn't be trying this hard...Maybe it's just not worth it all to drive yourself crazy like this. You should've said something about her hair. You moron. ... At least they liked the speech. Everyone said so. Even a few people you didn't know said so. You only stumbled through it once and you right leg started to shake in the middle of it, but it was good, everyone thought so. But, to, of course, make matter more complicated for yourself, you coughed into your hand just as before your name was announced as the winner of the Faculty Cup. You're scrambling to wipe it on the robe. You go the wrong way down the asile, you actually do this twice, the second time after you get the diploma, you git. At least the speech went well..And you got a major compliment from Jackson. That's something, and he has a really tight grip. But you didn't say anything about her hair. Too bad your mother and sister didn't have this problem, about not speaking. You're glad that they were isolated from each other today, because it was your last break from it, not true, you still have Chris's party this evening and Zach's tomorrow, his dad shook your hand, to get away from it all. Of course though, they have to get into it, politely, in the car. Taiwan wants to go to Coldstone, China still has her grounded from going out it would appear, but tells Taiwan to be back by 11. Silence for a few moments as Taiwan checks the time and says "Okay." As Taiwan is getting out of the car to run to the vehicle which is taking her, China says, "A thank you would be nice." Taiwan offers it up, fleetingly, and dashes out of the car. China then mutters, "Ass." Whether this was directed at the a driver or at Taiwan, you're not sure. But, the entire time you're thinking: Why the hell didn't you say anything, ANYTHING, about her hair?
