Sure of Uncertainty

Hi Guys.

So I've been reading a lot of books these days. And it reminded me how much I enjoyed writing fan-fics. Its been a while since I've written one. So much has changed here, all the writers and stories are so new. I dont know how long this story will be, or how short. I'm just writng until I get tired or bored.

So here goes nothing.

Sure of Uncertainty

I still remember that day like it was yesterday. Partly because it was the happiest day of my life, but mostly because I've been wishing that day away for the past twelve years. I remember every detail of that day; what I wore, what the room smelled like, the cheers, and the diploma. That's the day it all changed. Not only do I remember the day, but I can pinpoint the exact second, that single moment when the stars went black. Destiny had decided to turn against me.

Mrs. Meyers was at the mike giving her speech. I was sitting in the front row of the auditorium with the rest of my graduating class. I was; excited, nervous, scared, happy…proud. One by one we all went up on stage to collect of coveted diploma. We'd been waiting for this day for so long. I remember how much a hated the fact that my last name was Gupta and not something like Andrews. I hated waiting. Finally my name was called, and then it came. Destiny.

From that day on, all I have heard was that I had to keep my grades up. I had to join all the extra curricular activities that counted. I had to concentrate. I had to get into Harvard. I had to be perfect. There had been no question about it, it was certain, it was destined. And anything that got in the way of that needed to be disposed of.
