Grad is over.. was ex-h there?
My gut feeling said yes when D18 received a bursary and instead of turning toward me for a picture, she looked to the left.
D15' s reaction was to look for him. She did not see him.

I was still at ease. After the ceremony, D15 went to the bathroom and i went to the car to bring gifts.. when i walked back in, there he was with the girls.
I started shaking but fortunately for me, other parents and grand-parents were stopping to talk to me which kept me separated from him in a way.
I received her pictures from her teacher in the hall. Ex-h took this opportunity to adress me:

Ex-h: "Beautiful pictures. How much did this cost?"

Me: "$191.00". I like both so i purchased 2 packages."

I gave him an 8x10 of each picture and made my way inside the cafeteria.

I tried to stay away. D18 was shaking, D15 was uncomfortable and i felt like leaving. After a short while,Ex-h decided to leave. He could see the ackwardness in all of us.
Ince he was gone, everybody was talkative and mingleing!

I made it through smile
