Flashback for Years

I’m driving on my way to school. I pull into the parking lot and I see my boyfriend. I get out of my car and walk over to him. We are in the court yard by the main office building. He is holding me close to his body, to where I can feel his heartbeat on my chest. We both look at each other, he is leaning in and his lips touch mine. After we shared our first kiss we start holding each other tighter and tighter.

Today is a warm, cool day. I am on my way to see my cousin Deondrai graduate today. Today I get to see  my cousin do something that I will be doing in three years and that is walking down the stage getting a diploma. Here I am watching my big cousin graduate. My cousin is getting called and he is walking across the stage, as he grabs his diploma, tears start to roll down like a waterfall.

Here I am seven years old and I am getting the chance to hold my niece for the very first time. She is in my arms; she starts to smile at me. As I am looking at her toothless smile, I began to smile and cry my heart out. As I try to lay her down she starts to cry, so I pick her back up, and she is slowly going to sleep in my arms.
