It took almost two hours to finish the graduation ceremony at each faculty. Now, all the graduates headed to the auditorium for the main event, including Rose and her friends.
Somehow walking beside Evan towards the hall made Rose feel tense. But, this tension was not because of the rumors about her dating Evan, but she was nervous because this was the first time her friends would see her father.
Since Rose was in junior high school, she rarely talked about her personal matters with others. This habit continued until she went to college. So not many people know that she doesn't have a father. Only her close friends know.
Her childhood trauma, when she was often ridiculed for not having a father, made her utterly selective and challenging in making friends. This habit continued until she went to college.
