Familia

A wave of nostalgia hit her.

  She remembered her graduation 5 years back. It had been 5 years she thought to herself. How fast the night had changed. She remembered when she came out of the graduation hall and her parents were standing there under the bright morning sky on the green lush grass of garden. There was a glimmer of profoundness for their daughter in their eyes. She had given them a bone crushing hug. She had danced around them showing off her degree in hand. She had placed the graduation cap on her dad's head and made her mother wear the gown. She still remembers the photograph they took. She stood in the middle of her parents holding the certificate while her mother wore the gown and her father the cap. The memory was still so close. She had embraced that feeling within her and enjoyed every moment of it knowing she won't feel the same ever again. She chuckled at the bitter sweet memory of her parents. She missed them.
