Inside the grand event hall, loads of people gathered around, students were seated wearing their caps and robes. Finally, their journey was about to end as students and the road ahead for them widens for the future.
On top of the stage, a beautiful girl was speaking her hearts out to everyone.
“So remember, life might bring you down but do not let it bully you. Your life is yours and takes control of it. Fight for what is right and see to it that justice is served… Remember you are not alone, look forward, behind you and beside you. There are endless people willing to help you.”
“Our Journey as students end her but our journey is just about to begin. Once you're out there, don’t just take the easy road to life. Make sure to see that beauty of it, experience the ups and downs but don’t let it take control of you. For you to take control of your life.”
As she continued to finish her speech everyone was already up on their feet agreeing to what she was saying and applauding her. They were all moved and even the teacher got up on their seats as well.
"I am proud to be standing right in front of you all. As I end this speech, I want to thank the school, instructor, professors and especially to our parents and guardians again for their undying support..."
As the ceremony ended...
Outside the beautiful bright spring feeling. Parents, students, and teacher were all gathered as they greeted each other farewell. They took pictures and captured their last moments together.
“Excuse me…” Elizabeth said after taking a group picture with the council members and school staff.
“Jackie…”
“Liz”
The two girls run and embrace each other. Jackie could not help it and burst out into tears as Elizabeth comforted her.
“Come on now, don’t cry it's not as if we won't see each other again…”
“Liz, I’m really gonna miss you… Promise me you’ll visit, okay?”
“Of course I will…”
“By the way, when are you leaving?”
“Monday…”
"Liz, we may be miles apart and it may be daylight and nightfall where I am at. Don't hesitate to call me whenever you are lonely, I'm always here for you no matter what."
Elizabeth could not control her emotions in the end as a single drop of tear rolled down her face, "I shall..."
Heathrow Airport
“Calling all passenger…”
The girl got up her seat as she walked towards the gate. Suddenly her phone rung...
“Hello, Papa”
“Darling are you boarding your plane now?” a soft gentle voice asked.
“I am, I’ll see you soon Papa.”
“Alright… Take care.”
As she was about to put her phone back into her bag, someone suddenly bumps into her causing her to drop her phone. She was about to pick it up when the person that bumps into her suddenly steps on her phone as well.
“Excuse me, Sir, you just step on my phone…”
The Chinese man who was in his early 30s looked at the girl and kicked the phone aside instead of apologizing.
“Sir, do you know by doing that I have the right to sue you…”
The man acted as if he did not understand what the girl was saying. He then answered her back in Mandarin “Go ahead…”
The girl was shocked by hearing what the man said, the man must have expected that she does not understand him. In her frustration, she responded to him in his own language as well, “Since you wish, I will make sure you do not broad this plan right now…”
When the man heard what just came out of the girl's mouth, his jaw drops and he started to tremble. Due to his frustration, he shouted in English “You b*tch who do you think you are?”
Everyone started gathering around them as they watch how the scene will unfold.
“Sir, First of all, I would not have minded if you have bumped into me or step on my phone. Since that was an accident. Second, even after you have kick my phone I wouldn’t mind as long as you apologize. However, for you to even act high and might after what you have done is totally inappropriate.”
Everyone then started whispering to each other.
“How could the man act so rude after doing that…”
“Gosh, I feel sorry for the girl.”
“We should call the police so they can settle this.”
The man was at his limit, as he watches the girl picked up her phone and gave him a cold look. His body moved on it own.
But before he could lay his hand on the girl, a man stepped in out of nowhere and stop his hand before hitting the girl.
The man was shaken when he saw the man that stop him. He had a very strong intimidating presence. Despite it was late spring already it felt like winter when the man appeared. He was tall and handsome, with dark black hair and eyes that felt like the devil is staring at you.
“Mr. Yun…”
A man in his 50s said accompanied by his secretary and bodyguards.
When the crowd saw who it was, they were all surprised.
“Isn’t that old man the CEO of Mozilla?”
“That right, it President Wayne…”
As the group of people approached them, the old man looked and notice what was happening and asked, “What happened here?”
The Chinese man that was acting high and mighty earlier drop to his knees as he trembles in fear. “President Wayne, it's all a misunderstanding.”
“Is what he's saying true?” the old man looked at Elizabeth
Elizabeth noticed that the man was already trembling in fear, as he pleads for forgiveness towards the President and to the man that saved him, “Yes, everything was all a misunderstand…”
The man who was on his knees turned around to the girl, “Miss, I’m sorry, thank you…”
However, the people who witness everything were clearly surprised to see how things ended. They expected the girl would use this opportunity to her advantage.
At the same time, the man that saved him was dumbfounded as well. He did not say a word and just looked at the calm girl in front of him with a lifeless expression.
Elizabeth approached them and said, “President Wayne, I apologize for the commotion. Sir, thank you for your help as well. If you excuse me, I must board the plane now.”
She then bowed to them and grab her staff as she walked to the gate. The man also got up on his knees and followed the girl.
“Why does the girl look familiar?” President Wayne said as he asked his secretary asking if whether he has met the girl before. But since her eyes were covered it was hard to tell.
While the others tried to remember the familiar girl. Mr. Yun continued to gaze at the girl running towards the boarding gate. As her silhouette vanished, he smiled thinking back to how she defended herself earlier.
