The sleek black sedan glided smoothly along the wide, tree-lined avenue leading toward Blackwood University.
Alex sat in the backseat with Sarah and Danny, while Mike gripped the steering wheel, guiding them with focused excitement.
The air inside the car was thick with a mix of excitement and nostalgia.
"Man, I can't believe it's actually here," Mike said, grinning as he adjusted his graduation cap on his lap. "Four years of grinding, and today we finally get the damn degree."
Sarah laughed, her voice thick with emotion.
"Feels like just yesterday we were freshers sneaking into lectures. Now look at us… about to walk out as official Blackwood alumni."
Alex looked at each of them, a genuine smile softening his features.
