Many decades quickly passes by... "Good morning, everyone! Are you ready for high school, Darlene?"Darlene cringed in return while looking at her father. Her Dad, Dorian Esquivel is so excited about her going to high school, and he's overreacting."Dad, going to school is no big deal.

"Well, you need to say that to your daughter, not me." Lily Rose replied."---Well, if you can't have the same interest with Aston when it comes to music, maybe you can find something else, like playing basketball, perhaps?" Francine told her husband."Teenagers are really so different nowadays. They look and behave like they came from another planet."

Aston and Darlene will be University students soon and they'll be moving away once they can become official adults."
