Chapter 30

“Guys, were going to be late” Taeyeon announced

“Wait, let me put on my hat” Yoona rushed inside the car

Today was the day these girls would graduate from university

They got out of the car and all ran to the building

“Are we late?” Yuri whispered to a girl she was standing next to

“You’re just in time”

One by one, they heard their names were called down

“Im Yoona”

Yoona walked down the aisle

“Wooooo!!!! Go Yoona!!!” Yuri shouted

Yoona was blushing red has a tomato in embarrassment

“That’s my girlfriend,” Yuri told random people around her

“Can you shut up, it’s humiliating standing next to you” Taeyeon said

Yuri pouted

“Tiffany Hwang”

Tiffany was walking until she tripped on her heels

There was an awkward silence

Tiffany could feel the spotlight was on her

Yuri and Taeyeon just normally clapped like nothing happened and then eventually everyone did too

“Are you ok?” Yoona whispered

Tiffany nodded

She was embarrassed inside but was still strong enough to give out a big warming smile

After the assembly ended, the girls were being congratulated by their families

“Tiffany-ah are you hurt anywhere?” Her mom asked worriedly

“No Umma”

“I’m so proud of you” Both of her parents hugged her

“Taeyeon!” A little girl’s voice called

Taeyeon turned around witnessing her little sister was running towards her

Her sister leaped into her arms

“I miss you so much Unnie” The little girl squeezed her tightly

“I miss you too” Taeyeon picked her up and kissed her forehead

“Where Umma?”

The girl pointed over in the crowd

“Yuri-ah” Her mom hugged her while crying

“Umma, why are you crying” She wiped her mom’s tears away

“I’m just so happy for you. You were once a baby and now you’re all grown up” She started to cry again

Hearing her mom’s words made Yuri tear up a little

Everyone was being reunited with their families

But then there was Yoona who was just watching them

She sadly walked away until she heard a familiar voice called her name

“Yoona..”

She turned around in shock who was her dad

“Appa..”

He ran towards her with a hug

“What are you doing..?”

“I’m sorry..”

Yoona didn’t respond

“I’m sorry Yoona.. I was hypnotized before but now I realize how important you are in my life. You are the only daughter I have but I treated you wrong. I know I’m a terrible father..”

Tears started to fall down on both of them

He broke the hug and gave her the bouquet of flowers that was in his hand

“I’m proud of you.. my daughter” He was sad but he forced himself to smile

Teardrops were falling endlessly off Yoona face

It was the first time in forever has she heard that phrase from her dad

Yoona was going to say something until she saw Yuri protectively shield her with her arms out

“Stay away from Yoona, you already hurt her, no need to hurt her again” Yuri said coldly

“Yuri..It’s not what you th..”

“Yoona, I can’t stand seeing you hurt by him again” She cut her words with a serious expression

Yoona stayed quiet

“Please leave Yoona alone if you truly love her” She said firmly

He sadly nodded and walked away

“Wait, Dad” Yoona was going to chase after him but Yuri stopped her

“Don’t Yoona”

Yoona started to cry again

Yuri hugged her and wiped her tears away

“It’s ok”

In the car

“Let’s go out clubbing tonight” Tiffany suggested

“Sounds great since we're finally out of school” Taeyeon excitedly said

All night Yoona was just quiet

“Yoona” Yuri sat closer to her

“Hm?”

“Are you still thinking about him?”

Yoona sadly nod

“I’m just worried..”

“He’ll be fine. Let’s go dance” She dragged Yoona to the dancefloor

Yuri tried to her best to cheer the depressed girl but it hasn’t seemed to work

“Yul, I’m tired..”

“Go sit down for a bit, I’ll be there soon”

Yoona nodded and went back to her table

She was drinking like there was no tomorrow

There were people who wanted to dance with Yuri but she rejected them

“You dance really well, you wanna have a drink with me?” A guy asked

“Sorry, I’m taken” Yuri proudly said

“By who?”

Yuri pointed to Yoona noticing she was drunk on the counter while a girl was flirting with her

“Gotta go, bye” She angrily stomped there

“How can a beautiful person like you be drinking her alone?” A girl said while scanning Yoona’s body

“You want to drink with me or something” She asked annoyingly

“I would love to”

“No you wouldn’t” Yuri interrupted

“Who are you?”

“Her girlfriend, now get lost”

The girl walked away to another person and started to flirt with them instead

Yuri was in disbelief

“Baby, you’re all drunk”

“Leave me alone” She tried shooing Yuri away

“Aish, let’s go home”

Tiffany and Taeyeon were happily dancing together

Tiffany accidentally slipped again

“Omo, are you ok?” Taeyeon bent down

Tiffany embarrassedly nodded

“These heels are really a bother” She threw the heels somewhere in the crowd

“Tiffany, they’re going to hit someone”

“Who cares”

Both of them started to dance again

“Look these people trying to dance” A girl whispered to her friends

They all started to laugh
