I got to the restaurant at about 6:10. I didn't have time to go home and change so I just went to Andy's after I got off a work. When I got there they weren't there yet so I grabbed a table and waited. About ten minutes later they came in. My heart stopped. I can't remember ever being so scared in my entire life.

"There she is," Kyla says pointing to me. They walk over and sit down. No one is making eye contact.

We ordered and then just sat there silently.

"So….." I say

"So…." Aiden says

They finally look up at me…..except for Ashley. She still won't make eye contact.

"Well we came here to talk to you so I guess we better talk," Glen said

"Like first…..where did you go after you left?" Clay said.

"I went to college……just like I wanted to."

"Harvard?"

"Yeah. Harvard"

"Well when did you move here?"

"A few years ago"

"You're like 25 now right?"

"Yep"

"How long have you been a doctor?"

"I got offered a job here and that's when I became one"

"Are you…….are you happy?"

I sighed. I knew the answer but for some reason I didn't want to. "Yeah……yeah I am,"

"Okay"

It went silent for a few minutes until I piped up.

"So what have all of you been doing with your lives?"

"Well I'm a malpractice lawyer." Aiden said

"So you do medical cases?"

"That's right"

"Are you married? Sorry if I'm being to forward."

"No it's okay. I am actually. Her name is Jayce. She's really great."

"Where is she now?"

"She's at home in LA. I wanted to take a trip with my friends and she was going to come but she had to work. She's a nurse."

"Oh that's really cool. I'm happy for you" He smiled the same smile I remember when he was 18. "What about you Clay?"

"I'm a radiologist and I'm married to Chelsea," He says smiling and taking her hand. They look so happy together.

"That's great! What about you Chelsea?"

"Well I'm an artist. Some of my paintings are in art shows around the US and there are more than 50 art museums with my work in them."

"Wow that's amazing. I always knew you would be an artist. Glen?"

"I'm an engineer. And married to Madison"

"Madison? As in Madison Duarte?"

"Yeah her,"

"That's great. Kyla?"

"I'm a chef actually. I work at this restaurant called Elliot's. I know it's a weird name but it has good food. And I'm not married. I'm dating this guy named Kyle. We've been together for about 1 year and a half."

"Ha Kyla and Kyle. That's funny. What about you Ashley?"

She finally looked up at me. "I'm a cop. And I'm single"

My heart leapt as soon as she said that. I don't know why I was so excited that she was single.

"That's cool,"

There was a silence until our food came. We ate and then sat and waited for the check. They said it was their treat.

"There's something I've been wanting to ask you since I saw you."

"Okay what is it?" Glen asked.

"Why?"

"Why what?"

"Why didn't you support me? Why did you tell me I would never make it in college or as a doctor? You always supported me in everything I did……why not this?"

They all sighed. Clay spoke up.

"Spencer…..we thought it would be best for you to take over Dad's business. I knew you were smart but I didn't think you would be able to handle all of this. None of us did"

"So you couldn't at least support me when I tried to make it as a doctor?"

"I honestly don't know what I was thinking." Ashley said. "I was your girlfriend and I should have supported you but I didn't and I don't know why. I ask myself everyday why I didn't support you. I don't know why. It was stupid to not support you. But I wanted what was best for you and I thought taking over your dad's business was best. But I was totally wrong. And I really am sorry Spencer." She said it so sincerely I believed her.

"We're all sorry Spencer," Kyla spoke up. I walked over and hugged each of them. Maybe everything will turn out okay.

"I forgive you. All of you," I said with a smile.

"I'm so glad," Aiden said. The check came and we walked outside.

"So how long are you guys going to be here?"

"Well only about 3 more days because we only booked the hotel for a week."

"Okay, do you guys maybe want to get together tomorrow? To hang out like old times?"

"I'd love to. You guys?" They all said yes and I gave them my address and they said they would come over tomorrow at 8. I can't wait.
