Kodes dragged her feet into the great hall, glancing around, knowing it would be the last time she ever laid eyes on the room. It was the room she'd ate all her meals in for the past few months, and it would feel...WEIRD eating elsewhere now. BECAUSE SHE WAS GRADUATED! AND OLD!
The thought in itself was bone chilling and made her want to just sit down and SOB.
And speaking of sobbing, Kody could see a girl sitting and doing such at the huffie table, and her heart went out to the girl. She knew how she felt, this really was a terrible evening. At least for her...excitment for going home just didn't compare to the desolate feeling of LEAVING. And on THAT note, Kody realized she knew the crying girl. And recognizing the bent head made her go into her own sob fest.
"Snell!" Kodes threw herself onto the bench next to her 'little sister' and wrapped an arm around the girl's shoulder, letting out her own sounds. "I-I-I'm really gonna m-m-miss you."
Her eyes stung from the deep sobs, and she wiped her eyes while the tears still came flowing down. Once she calmed down a bit, she felt someone wrap their arms around her and looked up to see-KODES!
"KODES!" she yelled as she sobbed harder.
"I-I'm-gonna m-miss you m-more! Are you s-still gonna adopt m-me? she managed to say through her tears, causing a huge scene. She hugged her tighter and felt like the world was crashing down around her. Kodes completely turned around her life and she got so little time with her.
