Chapter 103 Plan To Listen To Their Conversation.

They began serving all the parents round giving each of them cups. Then they dropped bottles of non-alcoholic drinks on each table. The men didn't have plans of drinking non-alcoholic drinks. And the women didn't have plans of drinking alcoholic drinks.

They opened the bottles of drink and began pouring them into their cups as they sipped. They were sharing them well, and the kids that came along with them were just glancing at them...they'll get theirs soon.

As they were sipping their drinks, the head teacher continued speaking, they weren't done with the program.

"Each graduating student would come out now and give us their departing speeches".

And after making that utterance, the head teacher strolled back to his seat and sat on it. And the students began coming out one after the other and giving their speeches, and they were all nice.

They were doing it in order, and while Hazel was giving her departing speech, Ethan, Emma, and Aiden had smiles on their faces. And by now, every single one of them had given their speeches as they were all sitting in their seats.

Then the head teacher strolled out once again and uttered,

"And it's about time now for the certificates to be handed to each of the graduating students".

..One of the teachers had already handed all the certificates to the head teacher.

He was gonna stand right on that spot while calling out their names and each of them would be coming out to take their certificates from him.

The certificates weren't like modern-day ones, they were different. Everything written on the papers of the certificates was written with reed pen.

He was calling out their names and they kept walking toward him and collecting their certificates from him. And by now, he had handed all the certificates to the graduating students.

Then his voice resounded again, "It's about time for the kids and graduating students to receive their drinks, non-alcoholic ones. Their parents have been drinking for some time now, it's time for them to drink theirs as well".

About two teachers strolled off, and the moment they came back, they began handing bottles of drinks to the graduating students and the kids that followed their parents to the ceremony...and Aiden received his as well.

After the bottles of drinks had been handed to them, the teachers then handed cups to each of them. Now, the bottles of drinks handed to the kids and graduating students were mini in size. The bottles weren't as big as the ones handed to their parents.

..But Aiden didn't care about that, he gave no f**k about it. He had already opened his bottle of drink and was pouring its content into the cup and gulping.

Note, he wasn't sipping, he was gulping. He had no time to sip, he began craving a drink so badly after his mum and dad began drinking theirs from their cups. And now that he's been handed his, he wasn't in the mood to sip it at all.

Seeing that some of the students were already gulping their drinks, the head teacher voiced out once again,

"And now that drinks have been served round to all the kids and graduating students, it's about time for foods to be served round as well. It's about time for everyone to eat".

The program for the graduation ceremony was over, it was time for full-time refreshments.

'This is just nice, it hasn't been long since we were served drinks, now, foods are about to be served. I wonder if the food would be delicious'. Aiden thought to himself.

Cooks had been in the cafeteria all this while preparing something for everyone at the graduation ceremony. While the ceremony was taking place, they were busy cooking. And when they were done cooking, they began dishing them into plates.

So now that it was time for everyone in the ceremony to eat, they were fully prepared to serve them all. There were about three cooks, and they began serving everyone in the ceremony one plate of food each.

..The teachers and the head teacher were included, they were gonna enjoy every single thing the students, kids, and their parents were enjoying.

And 'cause the food was being prepared while the ceremony was taking place, they were still hot...and really delicious. The cooks serving them were part of the cooks that do prepare food for everyone in this academy. In Hazel's soon-to-become former academy.

They were the ones that do prepare food for both teachers and students in this academy just as it was in Aiden's academy. As Hazel and the other graduating students were looking at the cooks, they knew they were gonna miss them...

..They were gonna miss their cooking.

Aiden's food landed on the table in front of him, and due to the nice aroma that entered his nose, he began eating immediately. And the food was really delicious.

'This is enjoyment'. Aiden thought to himself.

"You're enjoying yourself, right?". Ethan inquired of Aiden glancing at him.

Aiden nodded his head chewing the food in his mouth. Ethan was eating as well, he was chewing food in his mouth when he asked Aiden that question.

Everyone just kept eating and enjoying themselves. From the parents, to the teachers, to the graduating students, and the kids that came along with their parents.

The teachers also drank, the female teachers drank non-alcoholic drinks, and the male teachers drank alcoholic drinks. They kept on enjoying themselves as some people were already done eating and drinking by now...all adults.

None of the graduating students and kids had finished eating. As Aiden was still enjoying his food as he had almost emptied his plate by now. A thought struck his head, something he had forgotten about...they had tests to write once school resumes in the next two days.

..That wasn't what was even bothering him, what was bothering him was that history was among the tests.

Well, he'll find chance to study a little once he gets home.

By now, everyone had already finished eating and drinking. The graduation ceremony had begun and ended successfully. It was about time for everyone to go home.

But before they began heading home, the head teacher and the two teachers of the graduating students greeted them all. They said their last goodbyes to them since today was the last time they'll be seeing them.

Hazel took her last glance at the school for she wouldn't be stepping foot into it for a very long time. She might just come to be visiting sometimes. And as for Aiden, he got to take a better look at Hazel's academy, he spent a long time in it.

..Currently, all the Dankworth family were strolling toward the horse they brought along that had a carriage attached to its back.

People that brought horses as well were walking toward them, while the ones that didn't bring anyone were just walking out of the school compound...they were gonna trek home.

Reaching the horse, Emma, Hazel, and Aiden entered the carriage, while Ethan mounted the horse and rode it out of the compound.

******

A day passed after Hazel's graduation ceremony had taken place, her parents were proud of her. Ethan made sure to keep her certificate in a safe place. They were on a day when school hadn't still resumed, the two days break wasn't over, it was gonna resume tomorrow.

So Aiden didn't go to his academy, he was at home. It was afternoon currently, Hazel had graduated from school, she had gathered lots of knowledge, but there were things her parents wanted to discuss with her...especially her dad.

Now that she was done with school, what next does she want to do with her life? Emma and Ethan had summoned Hazel to the living room as the three of them were sitting on chairs in the living room currently.

Alora and Lydia were in their room, and Aiden that was supposed to be in his room had already come out of it. His parents didn't summon him, they summoned Hazel. But he wanted to hear their discussion with Hazel.

..And he was sure of one thing, he was gonna make sure they don't notice him.

He was taking a peek at them currently, he was gonna hear their conversation properly. And from the way he stood, he was sure they wouldn't notice him...his body was hidden properly.

As known, Ethan, Emma, and Hazel were sitting comfortably on chairs currently. And Ethan began speaking,

"Hazel, you're done with school. Now, it's about time for us to discuss what you want to do next with your life. What is your next agenda?".
