Chapter 14 Part 3: Conrad's Past
Conrad’s POV
I woke up feeling excited since today is the day where I’ll be graduating from high school. But I’m also feeling sad, knowing that my friends and I will be moving on and will be separated for a long time. Since all of us will be attending different colleges. Some of us will be attending college here in Philadelphia, while others will move out and stay in a different state. But even if we’re separated, we promised each other to meet up in Philadelphia during the holidays.
As I was preparing for my special day, my parents suddenly walked into my room and surprised me with a party popper.
“Geez!” I startled. “You guys know that I don’t like surprises with a party popper.” I said to them. “I get easily startled, remember?”
“We know that’s why we wanted to do it for the last time before our son moves out.” My mother said sadly.

The City of Dreams and Love Chapter 14 Part 4: Conrad's Past
Conrad’s POV Things were going great so far. I was surprised by my new car since I didn’t expect them to buy a car that I like so much, which is a Honda Civic Type-R. And what’s better is that they got it in my favorite color, which is blue. I loved it so much that I ended up hugging them tightly and crying in their arms, knowing that they paid attention to me as I was growing up. Dad reminds me that I’ll be driving so that we can test out my new car. I agreed and got excited to drive it. Mom lets dad sit in front while she stays at the back since she needs to work some on things for her upcoming event. While we’re on our way to my school, we talked about my plans for the future. “After culinary school, what’s your plan?” Dad asked. “Well, I’m planning to continue to live in New York after culinary school, find a stable job there in the culinary industry, of course, and work my way up until I’m famous like Chef Gordon Ramsay.” I answe

Conrad’s POVIt was quarter to six, and I was getting ready for the celebratory dinner. I decided to wear my white shirt, brown pants, and the denim jacket that Jaiden had given to me as a gift for my eighteenth birthday. I washed my face, fixed my hair, and wore the watch that my dad gave me earlier. I was about to wear my white sneakers when mom suddenly came into my room.“You ready to leave?” Mom asked.“Almost, just wearing my shoes.” I answered.“Is that the silver watch that your father gave to you?” She asked as she noticed the watch I was wearing.“Yeah, it is.” I answered. “Why did you ask?” I asked.“Nothing, it just looks great on you.” She answered. “Just between you and me, you look more handsome than your father.” She said.“Thanks,” I replied. “Did dad texted or called you about later?” I a

Conrad’s POVHours have passed and our celebratory dinner has been great. Our tummies were filled with delicious food, probably got tipsy from all the champagne I drank, and had fun with our time together as best friends. This night has been special for the three of us but sadly, we won’t be seeing each other for a long time since all of us will be moving out from Philadelphia.By the time our celebratory dinner ended, we group-hugged for the last time and went on with our lives. But when Connor left first, Jaiden held my hand unexpectedly and told me that we should go to a nearby park. I told my mom and she agreed immediately. She also told me that she will be waiting back in the open bar. We left and walked to a nearby park.Minutes later, we arrived at Rittenhouse Square and walked around there. The park looks beautiful as it was lighted by the post lights and the light from the city itself. While we’re walking there, I noti

Chapter 15: Conrad’s Feelings Toward His Dad Three days have passed since Conrad’s incident. He was hospitalized during that time and was about to be discharged today. He sits miserably on the hospital bed, even if his mother and Mike visited him every day to keep him company. Elizabeth approaches him and sits with him.“Hey, you okay?” Elizabeth asks Conrad.“Yeah…” Conrad answered.“Are you sure?” She asked. “It doesn’t seem like you’re okay.” She said.“It’s just that, I don’t know…” Conrad said as he was having a hard time.“Go on, you can tell me.” She said trying to get Conrad to open up.“I’m sorry for making you guys worry.” He said sadly. “I know I shouldn’t do it, but I did it anyway. He added. &ld
The City of Dreams and Love Chapter 16: Back in the Apartment
Moments later, they arrived back at Conrad’s apartment. As they went inside, Conrad was welcomed with a warm hug by Alfred.“Well, this is new…” Conrad said surprisingly.“Too much… Sorry…” Alfred said embarrassingly. “I’m just relieved you’re okay.” He said.“It’s fine, I guess I’m just not used to being hugged by my friends anymore.” Conrad said. “Hey, I’m sorry if I made you worry.” He added. “I guess I didn’t listen to your advice…”“No worries,” Alfred replied. “By the way, I took the liberty in cleaning your room, since you know…” He said trying to be sensitive about what happened.“Thanks…” Conrad thanked. “Also, it’s great to be back at my apartment and I missed my bed, so I’ll go there and rest.” He said.“Do you g

Elizabeth takes a deep breath and opens the door. Scott was surprised to see Elizabeth in Conrad’s apartment. He never expected for her to be in New York.“Elizabeth surprised to see you here,” Scott said surprisingly. “Can I talk to Conrad?” He asked.“Before that, what are you doing here?” Elizabeth questioned.“I just want to talk Conrad, that’s all,” Scott answered."I heard what happened. Just tell me why you're here," Elizabeth replied.“I already told you!” Scott shouted. “I just want to talk to Conrad.” He said.“Conrad can’t talk to you,” Elizabeth said.“How come?” Scot asked. “Is it because you told him to.” He assumed.“No…” Elizabeth declined.“Then why?” Scott interrupted.“Because he’s scared,” Elizabeth answered. “He&rsq
The City of Dreams and Love Chapter 18 Part 1: First Day of Culinary School
As the sun rises in New York, it was another typical day for every person living there. But for Conrad, this is the start of something exciting. He wakes up by the sound of his alarm clock and the sun shining through his window. He sits down on the side of his bed, checks his phone, and realized that today is the start of something new. He starts to feel excited and goes out of his room to have breakfast before taking a shower. He directly goes to the kitchen and makes a cup of coffee for him. But, as soon he was about to put some water in the coffee maker, he notices that there’s still water in there. Then he thinks that Alfred already woke up and probably went somewhere. By the time he made his morning cup of coffee, he sits down by the dining table, takes a sip of his coffee, and opens his mental health journal. He starts to list out everything he’s grateful for and his plans for today and writes his entry for the day. While he writes his entry, Alfred com
The City of Dreams and Love Chapter 18 Part 2: First Day of Culinary School
Conrad finished preparing for his first day of culinary school. He went out of his room, wearing his uniform, and using his brand new leather book bag that his Aunt Christy gave him. As Alfred saw him, he was amazed by Conrad’s readiness and matured look.“Tell me, are you really going to culinary school or are you starting working?” Alfred asked. “Because you look ready as ever.” He continued.“Thanks, I guess it’s in my genes to look ready as ever…” Conrad said. “By the way, how come your uniform looks… you know…”“A bit big…” Alfred replied. “Yeah, I noticed,” He said. “They didn’t have my size, and the next smallest size was too small for me, and this was my only choice.” He continued. “But the pants are a perfect fit though.” He continued.“Have you thought of altering it?” Conrad asked.&ldq
