It was Jenny who seemed to have matured so much. I think because she was raised by a single Dad (parent). The separation from her Mother at an early age made her stronger and independent unlike Joan, Janice and Jeaneth.
After that Comoxial visit the 3 girls went back to the AppleGate and resumed their normal life.
Several years passed by Janice had a visit with Joan who finally made up her mind in choosing the best course for her. Instead of having Bachelor of Science in Biology she opted to take Environmental Science and Meteorology > degree in Turner University. She's hoping to be the next Tamara Taggart on TV broadcasting about the weather.
Janice was happy to see her at the University. A newly built institution close to the sports arena. Joan was sitting on one of the benches under the cherry tree with vibrant fuschia and white blossoms that seems to be the main attraction at that point of time. It is almost compared to Washington DC monument park except...that there is no phallic symbol on the ground. The absence of obelisk in other words. We can have a statue in it instead. Joan laughed at the idea.
Joan was happy to have seen Janice. What more she was ecstatic that Janice will move back to the community where she was born and would like to graduate in Turner University instead just like Joan.
Janice could only be thankful that there are affluent and wealthy people who have contributed and granted donations to have this one of a kind University for the gifted and for the "special programs and project." To them spreading knowledge as the ways and means to empower judgment and wisdom that every individual deserved in this lifetime. That no one is rejected unless of course she or he would like rejections.
The two girls or ladies had a long conversation once again. Janice found out that Jenny got married.
Janice: What?! Really? How come I was not informed? Why she didn't invite me?
Joan: It was a hush-hush wedding! it was all of a sudden. I myself was surprised. I think Jenny was already pregnant that's why.
Janice: Oh ?!!! And who is the guy? I mean whom did she married?
Joan: Who else? It was Arnel!
Janice: Oh my God! It's soooo0 unbelievable!! (chuckled hysterically) Are you kidding me?
Joan: No I'm not!
Their conversation has gotten more interesting by the hour. Being with friends, good friends really has no bounds. No time can stop them from being chatty or gabby for words. they can go and on until some passers by watched them with curious eyes. There was a time that those two girls could'nt help hugging and hold hands. So they sometimes quipped and hollored them, "We're not gays!" Then laughed again just like school girls do.

Memoirs of Friendship - Chapter 7
At Jenny Garfield's Residence: Jenny's house has three bedroom with sunken living room and an extra family room big enough for the party. The adequate space can occupy the whole class. It wont be a problem. The kids were delighted to start the party.
Jenny introduced her Dad to her classmates and to Miss Kraft. Her dad and Miss Kraft get along well together. Jenny's Dad and Miss Kraft had this common denominator to say the least. Both showed maturity having cool conversation. They have a good chemistry between them that the girls have noticed. Joan told the special attention that Jenny's father had shown their adviser. Jenny could only think it's about time. Her dad's been divorced for more than 10 years.
Joan,Janice and Jeaneth helped their friend in entertaining their classmates. Girls offered some snack: Chips, peanuts, pop, punch (pineapple-orange juice with gin tonic -mild) Disco songs were played by the designated DJ (disc jockey). The music of the Village People, songs from Michael Jackson's Thriller and Billy Jean, Stayin' Alive by the Bee Gees were played.
Later the DJ played the song "Stairway to Heaven." When Jenny's father danced with Miss Kraft, the rest of the students wont budge to participate the slow moving song. Joan asked Jenny to dance with Leopold or to Arnel.
"Why should I?" Jenny replied to Joan and blurted out, "Why don't you?"
Joan responded," They're not my type!"" Besides this is your home it's for you to keep your visitors to feel at home." Joan left and sit beside Jeaneth and Janice. The girls had fun watching their classmates as they danced on the dance floor.
Joan: Wow! It's nice seeing Miss Kraft back to being a human again.
Janice: Hey, don't be boastful and sarcastic girls. She deserved to have a little romance don't you think?
Jenny: (laughing) Funny! Good that my dad is divorced and Miss Kraft is still single then matching the two is just fair. I mean I don't mind if my dad marries again. I like Miss Kraft I think she is very smart.
Jeaneth: I think it's about time for your dad to be happy and so as Miss Kraft. Besides your mom is not here in Canada. Is she still in Brazil?
Jenny: Yes she's till in Brazil together with my brother and sister. I might visit them someday. But not this year ...no I'm not ready (Jenny feeling sad for a moment left the girls and attend to her other chores at the kitchen)
Years passed by as the leaves have turned from its natural color green to yellow, orange to red and then brown so as the days of their lives. Nothing much important happened in their second year being Sophies or Sophomore except that the girls have continued their transformation and updating of data. Major subjects of study surely catapulted from simple math of Algebra to Geometry.
Second Year of study in High School requires them to take extra curricular activities. The four girls favored being a member of the school choir and dance troupe.
Then on third year in High School their mathematics has been upgraded to Trigonometry and statistics. Their Science subject has uplifted to Chemistry which required them to attend their class in the laboratory where they can have their chemical experiments.
Experiments were done through the help of their teacher, 2 instructors and guide. They have hamsters, mice, and frogs to dissect. Blood, oh real blood to study and testing done with the help of the Bio-chemist.
When it comes to their English 3 it's all about Literature. Reading and Writing. theme writing, Poetry and Essays. The students were asked to memorized a poem in 12 stanzas and they were asked to recite them in front of the class. Memorization from what they discovered is way too easy when you're young and less than twenty years of age.
All of these activities inside the classroom were then emphasize in a strictly manner. Just like robots following the order of the School teachers. Only the four girls were able to reach to the point of superiority. Other students were not able to reach the goal and back out and asked that they'll be replace or move to other sections. From 25 students there were only 15 students fighting to survive and struggle for more hardship. For the four studious girls its another game played with much ease and precision. Studying and research is just a mere GAME for these four girls but nobody can understand or comprehend their sole purpose.
