Understanding is only the beginning .. [Sequel to YTYU]

::Graduation!::

“Go on,” Shanelle said pushing her on stage.

Deja smiled and walked down to Principal Brooks and everyone cheered.

“DEJAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAA!” Chres screamed.

Deja put her hand over her mouth to stop herself from laughing, then removed her hand and got her pictures snapped before turning back to Principal Brooks.

“Congrats,”

“Thank you.”

I watched as Deja made her way off stage and jump into Chres’ arms.

“Shantalle Brooks.”

“SHANTALE!!” Ray shouted.

There was more laughter as Shantalle smiled and made her way on stage,

“You girls seem to be quite known,” Principal Brooks smiled as she shook Shantalle’s hand and handed her the certificate.

Everyone in the crowd chuckled.

“I guess,” Shantalle smiled.

Shantalle had her pictures taken before making her way off stage.

“La’Shanelle Brown.”

“WOO!” Craig screamed, “La’Shanelle!”

Shanelle looked back at Craig and smiled and blew him a kiss before making her way on stage.

“Congrats,” Principal Brooks smiled.

“Thank you,”

They turned and had their picture taken, then La’shanelle walked up in front the stage and took a bow before the auditorium began clapping hysterically.

She made her way off stage and the names continued.

“Craig Crippen,”

“CRAIG!” A bunch of us shouted.

Craig bounced onto the stage and walked over to Principal Brooks,

“Congrats,” She smiled.

“Thank you,” He smiled.

They shook hands and he had his pictures taken before he moonwalked off stage.

Everyone laughed and clapped for him, then the names continued.

The line began getting shorter and shorter as more and more people were accepting their certificates.

“Jacob Perez.”

“WOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO!” I screamed, “JACOOOOOOOOOOOB!”

There was an uproar of applause as Jacob walked onto the stage.

“Jacob, Jacob, Jacob, Jacob!” We all went.

He had a million dollar smile on his face that nothing could remove.

“I see you’re another popular one Mr. Perez,” Principal Brooks smiled.

All Jacob did was smile and nod, then turn to have some pictures taken.

“Congrats.”

“Thank you,” He smiled running his hands through his hair.

Screams filled the hall as he did that, I was one of the people who screamed.

“JACOOOOOOOOOOOOB!!!!!” A bunch of girls screamed out.

I pushed back the curtain and searched the crowd to see who was calling my baby’s name out like that.
