A/N: This one’s a drabble and a half.
It constantly amazed Ryo just how quickly Bikky was growing, and now they’d reached another milestone, the boy’s graduation from junior high. He’d be fourteen in just a few weeks and a freshman at high school come fall.
“Why’re you lookin’ at me like that?” Bikky asked. “Do I have something on my face?”
“No, you look fine, Biks. I was just thinking about how much you’ve grown over the past three years. I can’t believe how fast the time has flown.”
“You’re not going to get all mushy are you?” Bikky eyed his foster father suspiciously.
“Probably, but I’ll try to keep it to a minimum,” Ryo promised. “Come on, we should get going, you don’t want to be late.”
“I feel like an idiot wearing this.” Bikky tugged at his tie.
“It’s only for a few hours; you’ll live,” Ryo laughed. “Be thankful you don’t wear a uniform.”
The End
(no subject)
Date: 2016-08-07 04:51 pm (UTC)We had exams at the end of ever year in every subject, so O and A-levels were more of the same, but more important. The grades you got in those would be taken into account when applying for a job or a university place. We didn't have SATs when I was a school, though schools here do seem to have them now. They're not well-liked.
