Recognition.

The school year's almost over. Time for the quarterly examinations. Katelyn together with her other classmates took an earlier test. After taking the tests, they practiced the recognition day. Left their classmates and probably won't see them.

Katelyn would go to school at the given time. She would stay at the gym lobby and line up with Ana, Halley, Teri and other students. Katelyn would start talking with Ana and they would talk about games. Kingdom Hearts, Final Fantasy. They would talk about how cute the characters are. How Sora looks cool.

The students were asked by the teacher to line up. Katelyn sat in between Sarah Babbit. and Mason Lawrence.

Eat with Halley, Ana or her other friends during breaks. During the practices, they would stand for a long time. They weren't allowed to chit chat.

It was fine, except when they practice at the chapel. Standing for a long time doesn't feel good at all partnered with a hot venue.

It was fun staying at the gym though. While waiting for their turn in the procession, they would play games. Have fun. Even though teachers might scold them. They still did fine.

During the Recognition day itself. Katelyn went to school in the afternoon. Make up applied on her face, new hair style, she was wearing her uniform and to top it all up. Her mother was there. Something as memorable as this in her life, surprisingly her mother was there.

The procession started. Katelyn reached her seat. She behaved well. It was time for them to get their medals. They stood up and walked to the side of the stage. One by one went up the stairs and took their medals from the directress.

Katelyn took hers, her mother beside her. It felt so nice, for at least one time seeing her mother present. For almost 8 years that Katelyn never saw her. She stood beside her and smiled as the cameras flashed.
