Love Sky
Chapter 24
Half a year later, the gang had their end years exams and were waiting for their results.
Charlene: Oooh... I’m so nervous. Wonder how is my results?
Gillian: Me too. My hands are shaking now.
Edison: Chill down, man.
Alex: Why did we come here so early? This waiting business is driving me crazy.
Edison: It was supposed to be out at nine. It's now 9.05 already.
Cindy: Who's the one nervous now? (nudging Edison)
Edison: What? Me? Nervous? Never in my life!
Alex: Really?
Edison: Can the both of you stop ganging up on me?
Charlene: You guys still have the mood to quarrel?
Gillian: Yeah! This is serious business.
Roy: Hey!
Charlene: Roy?
Roy: The results are not out yet? Here, i bought some breakfast for all of us.
Alex: Thanks Roy. The girls were pushing me the whole morning until i don't even have time for breakfast.
Roy: You guys are sure early. I came right after Charlene's call.
Cindy: Gillian was the one doing the pushing. I told her that we should come at 9.30.(munching her sandwich)
Gillian: The early bird gets the worm.
Cindy: I don't want worms.
Edison: (passing Gillian a bun) Lame joke.
Cindy: None of your business!
Charlene: It's here! (saw some people putting up some papers on the notice board)
Roy: Yeah.
Gillian: Let's go see.(tugging Edison who was busy drinking)
Edison: (almost spilled his drink) Wait! Don't pull!
Alex: (looking at the not moving Cindy) Aren’t you going?
Cindy: Don't worry. Charlene will check for all of us. By the way, it's so crowded now, i rather not squeeze.
Alex: Oh. (caught a glimpse on someone) Shawn's here.
Shawn: Hi! I'm not late, am i?
Cindy: What do you think?
Shawn: Where's the others?
Alex: Where's Yumiko?
Shawn: She'll join us for lunch. She told me to check her results for her.
Cindy: I see.
Shawn: You guys are not going to check?
Cindy: My results will come to me.
Shawn: Huh?
Cindy: It's coming already.
Charlene: Cindy, you'd got all A's and Alex, you got a B, the rest are A's.
Alex: I see. Thanks Charlene.
Cindy: See. Understand now?
Shawn: Yes. I'll go check mine now.
Gillian: Wow! it was such a crowd.
Edison: (panting) Yeah. I was just like a sardine just now, being squeezed here and there. And i didn't even get to see my results.
Cindy: Not to worry. Charlene, did you check Ed's results?
Charlene: Yup! 2B's, same as mine.
Edison: Oh thanks. If i had known that you will check it for me, i wouldn't have to go squeeze with the crowd.
Alex: Ok now. Everyone is back in the gang? Where's Roy?
Charlene: In the washroom.
Alex: Oh.
Shawn: Hey! i got 2B's.
Edison: Shawn? When were you here?
Shawn: Just now.
Gillian: Where's Yumiko?
Shawn: She had something on. She said she'll join us for lunch and it's her treat.
Cindy: that's great!
Lunchtime,
Shawn: Hey! Over here! (waving to the group)
Edison: Shawn and Yumiko are over there. (pointing towards them)
Alex: Hi!
Gillian: It's the first time you're not late, Shawn.
Shawn: No way.
Cindy: Yes way. Tell me when are you early when we call you out? Or just not late because you're never early.
Shawn: There are. Just give me some time to think.
Gillian: I'll give you tomorrow and i bet you still won't have an answer.
Yumiko: Ok now. What do you guys like to have for lunch?
Alex: (whispers to Cindy) You'll just have to stop picking on Shawn already. Yumiko is shielding him.
Cindy: (whispers back) Oh, i see.
Charlene: Yumiko, why weren't you with us when the results are out?
Yumiko: Oh, i have to accompany my grandmother to the hospital for her check up. You know old folks need to do their check ups frequently.
Charlene: Oh. That's so nice of you.
Roy: Oh ya. What are you guys' plans after this? College?
Gillian: Should be. What else then?
Edison: All of us, going college?
Roy: At least i am.
Charlene: Me too.
Cindy: I think so too.
Shawn: Count me in.
Yumiko: I should be too.
Alex: Wow! All of us are going to college. Let's go to the same one. Then we'll still have our gang.
Edison: I agree.
Shawn: Yeah! Next stop, college!
