"Pfft... Haha!”
The crowd fell into a sea of laughter whilst Sage was rendered completely speechless, she smiled asthe teen turned his head to look at her.
That moment was captured in frame forever by the camera.
Sage was in a pretty breezy mood upon leaving the sports academy, perhaps it was influenced bythe group of youthful teenagers. The graduation ceremony was held in the school hall, the Principalwas giving his speech and best wishes for his beloved students.
“Today, you're a proud student. Tomorrow, we're your proud teachers,” Concluded the Principal ashe ended the speech on a high note. The thick layer of the Bachelor's Gown had rendered thestudents sweaty from the heat and everyone just wanted the ceremony to end quickly. Except forSage, who fully concentrated on the speech at the designated parents area. The students queuedand one by one, they received their certificates from the Principal on the stage. Students wereconsidered to be officially graduated once they take the certificates and had their tassels turned bythe Principal. When it was Leah's turn, Sage took as many photos as she could; not forgetting toclap and show a big thumbs up of course.
Leah stood under the spotlight, looking directly at her big sister. In that very moment, Leah felt thather heart that had been wandering around for twelve years, had finally found its way back home. Allthis why she had been like a fallen leaf, directionless. Now, however, that very leaf has finallyreturned to its roots.
Leah smiled sweetly. There was only one thing in her mind... “I must not let Sages effort go towaste, I promise to bring Norah Jewel's brilliance back it's honor!
After the graduation ceremony, Leah officially moved into the Rosa Garden. She now lived with Sagewhilst Yeva moved out of the residence the same day.
Yeva called for a moving truck by herself. All of her belongings were packed into a whole load ofbags and boxes in different sizes. She stood by the stairs, ordering the movers to move herbelongings without lifting her hands. Oddly enough, she seemed somehow exhausted fromseemingly not doing anything. “Moving is so tiring. Leah, are you done moving all your stuff?” Leahwas sweating as she had just carried a few boxes up the stairs with the maids. She took a few sips ofwater and said as she nodded her head, “Yeah, it's a quick process. I don't really have that manybelongings with me.”
“That's true, you're a broke university student, you won't own much belonging. Unlike me, there areplenty of things that I'd rather toss out but I can’t because they're either precious
gold or silver. I can't just let them go to waste now, can I?” Said Yeva. Leah smiled without saying aword. “Hey, you. Be gentle, those are all valuables, you better not break any of them!” Yeva fussedloudly, fanning herself with a floral-pattern folding fan. She uttered again,” When I'm done movingout, you can just move into my room. It's much bigger than yours anyway.”
Leah shook her head and said, “The walls are thin in this house. Sage is a light sleeper, she'd wakeup with the slightest of noise. Your room is too close to Sage’s, it's better if we just leave it vacant.I'll move back into my old room, it's pretty decent as it is. Sage offered to renovate the room but Ideclined it."
Yeva was annoyed as she sped up her fanning movement. “What an absolute bootlicker! Trying toget on Sage’s good side and all!" Yeva cursed inaudibly.
Yeva smiled in disdain and said, “Leah, this is where you're better than me I suppose. You knowwhen and where to say the right things. I, on the other hand, have always been stubborn with ahuge ego, I'll never be as good of a sweet-talker like you.” Leah was unaffected by her sarcasm. Sheresponded patiently, “That's not true, Yeva. Sage has always been good to me, and I truly respecther from the bottom of my heart. There was no sweet-talking at all.” Yeva scoffed as she took a stepforward and uttered, “There's no outsiders around anymore, you can drop the act. Aren't youexhausted? Do you really think Sage will truly care for you like a sister? Even if she does, aren't youafraid that she might replace out about what yours and my father did? Do you really think she'd bekind and forgiving then?” Yeva's words were as sharp as a blade, stabbing her heart and sendingchills down Leah's spine as she froze in fear.
