Max and red decided to get some ice cream, and I decided to go home, but Felix insisted that he'd walk me home.
"Okay, that sounds great," I said, feeling a bit nervous but also excited at the same time. Felix and I walked home together.
"I guess max will have a great time with Red. He has been known for being like that, a good friend, " Felix said while we were walking.
"Yeah, he's a great friend. I'm sure he'll help cheer Max up," I said, nodding. It's always great to have friends like Red, who are always there to support you.
"by the way, iris. We will be busy in the coming weeks. We have some gigs at the end of the month, and we have to practice so we can deliver a great performance," Felix says
"Oh, that's great! I'm sure you guys will do great," I replied. "Do you want me to come and support you?""I think it's fine, Iris. Finals are coming too. You need to get ready for that." he replied
"Yeah, you're right, Felix.I went to school early to catch up with lance because I needed to talk to him. I need to clarify some things. Good thing I found him at the university gym"What's up, Iris?" Lance asked when he saw me approaching him at the gym."I need to talk to you," I said, trying to sound calm despite the mix of emotions inside me."Sure, what is it?" he asked, setting down the weights he was holding, and giving me his full attention."I saw you at the mall with another girl yesterday. Who is she?" I asked directly, not wanting to beat around the bush.Lance looked a bit surprised, but then he sighed and ran his hand through his hair. "Iris, that's my cousin. We bumped into each other at the mall, and I was helping her pick out some clothes for an event she was attending.""Good thing max didn't see you because she might misunderstand it too. She's fragile at the moment. why did you break up with her?" I ask him directly. He let out a deep sigh and leans
finals week starts today. I kept familiarizing and memorizing because of our exams today. i kept studying til 2am. I am so early at school, so I can borrow some notes to max. Max arrived a little later and gave me her notes. "what time did you sleep?" i ask her, "12am" she said looking so bored, "are you okay?" i ask her again, she fix herself in her sit and faced me, "i felt like i studied lance instead of this damn notes," i laughed at her but i felt concerned too,"max, don't forget about your grades, this is our future," i remind her.Max nodded and we both started reviewing our notes. The exam was tough but we managed to answer everything. After the exams, we went to the school garden to take a break. As we were walking, we saw Lance sitting on one of the benches. Max looked at me and I knew what she was thinking. We approached him and said hi. "How did your exams go?" he asked. "It was okay, but tough," Max replied. We chatted for a while, but didn't bring up the p
As I walked into the school gymnasium, I was greeted by the sight of my fellow graduating seniors milling about, chatting and laughing with one another. We were all dressed in our school uniform, eagerly anticipating the start of our graduation practice.I saw Max standing near the stage, talking animatedly with some of our classmates. I joined them, and we chatted for a while until our teacher announced that we would begin practice.We took our seats, and our teacher began giving us instructions on how to properly walk across the stage and receive our diploma. As she spoke, my mind drifted off, thinking about all the memories I had made in this school, and how bittersweet it was to be leaving.Suddenly, my thoughts were interrupted by a loud crash. I turned to see what had happened and saw that one of my classmates had tripped and fallen on stage. I held my breath as the whole gymnasium fell silent, wondering if she was okay.Thankfully, she got up, laughing and
As we marched along with the rest of our classmates in our graduation gowns, I couldn't help but feel a sense of bittersweetness. It was our last practice before the real graduation ceremony, and while I was excited about the future, I knew I would miss my friends.Max and Isla were walking beside me, both of them wearing big smiles on their faces. I knew why - we had all gone to Xefora's gig the night before, and it had been amazing. Isla had been in her element, dancing the night away and singing along to every song. Max had been just as enthusiastic, and the three of us had cheered wildly when Felix had asked me to be his girlfriend in front of the whole crowd.Thinking about Felix made me feel warm all over, and I couldn't help but smile too. It felt so good to finally be honest about our feelings for each other, and I was grateful for Isla and Max's support."So, how are you feeling about being official with Felix?" Max asked me, breaking into my thoughts.
As Felix and I walked hand in hand, I felt a nagging sense of worry at the back of my mind. I had heard rumors about Xefora's disbandment, and I couldn't help but ask Felix about it."Felix, I heard about the rumors," I said, my voice tinged with concern. "Is it true that Xefora is going to disband?"Felix let out a heavy sigh. "I'm afraid it is, Iris," he said, his voice laced with sadness. "My parents want me to focus on my studies and pursue medicine, and I just can't do both."I felt a lump forming in my throat. Xefora had been such a big part of Felix's life, and I knew how much he loved being a part of the band. It broke my heart to see him so torn."I'm so sorry, Felix," I said softly, giving his hand a gentle squeeze. "Is there anything I can do to help?"Felix shook his head. "No, it's okay, Iris. I'll figure something out," he said, forcing a smile on his face. "Maybe I'll start a new band someday, who knows?"I could see the sadness in his ey
I was bursting with happiness as I sat on Isla's bed, telling her about how Felix and I had kissed. Isla was beaming with joy for me, her excitement contagious. It was so nice to have her as a friend, someone who always supported me in my decisions."I'm so happy for you, Iris!" Isla said, giving me a big hug. "Felix is such a great guy, and you deserve to be happy."I hugged her back, feeling so grateful for her friendship. "I know, right? He's so sweet, and we have so much fun together. I feel like I can be myself around him."As we talked, I couldn't help but feel a sense of contentment wash over me. Everything just felt right at that moment, and I knew that I was exactly where I was supposed to be.____________________________________________________________I was sitting across from Isla at the kitchen table, taking small bites of my toast while she excitedly chattered away about her plans for the summer.But as she was in the middle of tel
As I woke up on our graduation day, a surge of excitement and anticipation flowed through me. It was the day we have been waiting for, the culmination of four long years of hard work and perseverance. I could not believe that it was finally here.I stood in front of my closet, contemplating what to wear. After a few minutes, I decided on a white summer dress with matching sandals. I wanted to look my best for this special day.As I made my way to the venue, I was filled with a mix of emotions. I felt happy, proud, and excited to receive my diploma, but at the same time, I also felt a bit sad. I knew that this was the end of an era, and I would miss my friends and the memories we created together.We were all wearing our graduation robes and beaming with pride. It was a sight to behold, and I was happy to share this moment with them.During the ceremony, I felt a sense of nostalgia as I listened to our valedictorian delivers her speech. I couldn't help but look
As I got into Felix's car, I felt my body relax. The graduation ceremony was tiring, and I just wanted to rest. Felix must have noticed because he held my hand and asked if I was okay. I smiled at him, feeling grateful that he was there with me.We drove in silence for a while, but it was comfortable. I watched the city pass us by, the buildings and people disappearing into the background. It was a beautiful day, the sun shining bright, and the air crisp and cool. I couldn't help but think about how lucky I was to have Felix in my life."Are you excited about your graduation, Felix?" I asked him, breaking the silence.He smiled, "I am. But I'm more excited to have you there with me."I blushed, feeling my heart skip a beat. "Of course, I'll be there. I wouldn't miss it for the world."As we continued driving, I leaned my head on Felix's shoulder, feeling his warmth and the rhythm of his breathing...As Felix drove the car through the city streets, I g
As Felix and I walked along the sandy beach, I couldn't help but feel a sense of peace wash over me. The sound of the waves crashing against the shore was soothing, and the warm sun on my skin felt invigorating.Felix and I had come to the beach for a much-needed break from our busy lives, and I was grateful for this moment of respite.We strolled along the shoreline, our feet sinking into the sand with every step. Felix reached over and took my hand, his fingers lacing with mine."Isn't this amazing?" he said, his voice filled with wonder.I nodded, smiling. "It's so peaceful here. I feel like I could stay here forever."We walked in comfortable silence for a while, watching as the seagulls flew overhead and the waves rolled in. I could feel my mind clearing, my worries and stress melting away with every passing moment.Felix suddenly let go of my hand and ran towards the water, laughing. I followed him, the cool water washing over my feet as I splashed in the waves.We played like k
As we arrived at the concert venue, I could feel the excitement building inside of me. It was a huge event, and I knew that Red was going to be amazing on stage. We made our way to the backstage area, where Red and the other performers were getting ready.It was a chaotic scene, with people rushing around and getting into their costumes. I could hear the sounds of instruments being tuned and microphones being tested, and I could feel the energy in the air.Red spotted us as we entered the backstage area, and his face lit up with a smile. "Hey, guys!" he said, coming over to greet us. "You made it!"I hugged him tightly, feeling a sense of pride and admiration for my talented friend. "We wouldn't miss this for the world," I said.Felix shook Red's hand, grinning. "We're excited to see you perform, man," he said.Red gave us a quick tour of the backstage area, showing us where the performers would be getting ready and where the instruments were being stored. I could feel my heart beatin
As I sat in the small studio watching Red and Felix practice the song they had created for Red's upcoming concert, I couldn't help but feel a sense of awe. Both of them were so talented and watching them work together was like witnessing magic in action.Red's voice was powerful and soulful, and it blended perfectly with Felix's guitar playing. They were both completely immersed in the music, with their eyes closed and their bodies swaying to the rhythm.I sat there quietly, not wanting to disturb them as they worked on perfecting the song. It was clear that they were both passionate about the music and dedicated to making it sound just right.As they finished playing the song, Red opened his eyes and looked over at me, a small smile on his face. "What do you think, Iris?" he asked."It's amazing," I replied, my voice filled with admiration. "You guys sound incredible together."Felix turned towards me, his eyes shining with excitement. "We've been working on it for weeks," he said. "
I felt a mixture of excitement and nerves as I and Felix arrived at his parent's house with their two children in tow. It had been a while since we had last visited, and she couldn't help but wonder if things would be awkward between them after all that had happened.But as soon as we walked through the door, any fears I had quickly dissipated. Felix's parents, who were waiting eagerly at the entrance, embraced them both warmly and were quick to fuss over their grandchildren. The kids, in turn, were thrilled to see their grandparents again and immediately launched into telling them about all the things they had been up to since their last visit.Watching Felix's parents dote on the children brought a smile to my face. It was clear how much they adored their grandchildren and how happy they were to have them around. It was heartwarming to see the bond between them, and it made me feel grateful to be a part of such a loving family.As we all sat down to catch up over a meal, I found mys
I sat on the edge of the bed, my fingers tapping nervously against my thigh. I looked up at Felix, who was sitting across from me, his expression serious. He had just asked me if I was ready to try for another child, and I had agreed, but she couldn't shake the feeling of unease that had settled in my stomach.It wasn't that I didn't want another child. In fact, I had been hoping for one for a long time. I loved our daughter so much, and I longed to give her a sibling. But the process of trying to conceive had been difficult the first time around, and I was afraid of being disappointed if we failed to make another child.Felix reached across the bed and took my hand. "I know you're worried, love," he said softly. "But we've done this before. We know what we're doing."I nodded, but my mind was still racing. I couldn't help but remember the months of disappointment we had faced the first time around. We had tried everything, from tracking my ovulation to taking fertility supplements, b
It was a bright and sunny Saturday afternoon when I received a text from Max inviting me to Leo's first birthday party. I was excited to be a part of this special celebration. I quickly responded with an enthusiastic "Yes", picked up Lily and dress her nicely, and made my way to the party venue, eager to join in on the festivities.As I arrived at the party venue, I was greeted by a cheerful atmosphere. The room was filled with colorful decorations, bright balloons, and a beautiful cake at the center of the table. The children were running around the room, playing with their toys, and waiting for the guest of honor to arrive.Max and Red greeted me warmly as I walked in, and they introduced me to their friends and family. They had put a lot of effort into making this a memorable day, and the preparations were impressive. The theme of the party was a jungle safari, and the room was decorated with green and brown paper vines and animal cutouts. There were also some animal-shaped balloon
MAX POINT OF VIEWI sat in the doctor's office, my heart pounding in my chest. My mind was racing with thoughts of what could be wrong with me. The doctor's words echoed in my head: "There's something in your stomach, Max."My stomach churned as I waited for the doctor to explain further. Was it cancer? A tumor? I had heard so many horror stories about people being diagnosed with serious illnesses, and I couldn't shake the fear that I might be one of them.The doctor's voice brought me back to reality. "We need to run some tests to determine what it is," she said. "It could be something minor, but we need to be sure."I nodded, barely able to speak. Fear had taken hold of me, and I felt completely out of control. I couldn't bear the thought of being sick, of having to go through treatments and surgeries.As I left the doctor's office, I felt like I was in a daze. Everything around me seemed hazy and distorted, and I couldn't focus on anything except my fear. I tried to call my partner

The morning of the wedding had finally arrived, and I couldn't believe that the day was finally here. Felix and I had been planning for months, and now it was time for our vision to come to life.As I sat in the makeup chair, surrounded by my bridesmaids, I felt a sense of excitement building inside of me. I had always dreamed of this day, and now it was finally happening.As the makeup artist applied the finishing touches, I caught a glimpse of myself in the mirror. I couldn't believe how beautiful I looked. My hair was styled perfectly, my makeup was flawless, and my dress fit like a glove.But as I looked at my reflection, I couldn't help but feel nervous.
