Chapter 7: All Grown Up

Of course naturally, Yuta and Asami were not excited about having their significant others meet their parents. Asami was so scared that her parents wouldn't like Kathryn, that she decided to call the relationship off. Yuta, on the other hand, decided to be brave and boldly introduced Magdalena to his parents. Kagura and Chin-Han approved, and Yuta was free to come and go as he please with Magdalena. Although disappointed in her own fear, Asami was content with being single now. She began to focus more on school than on Kathryn, and she believe her newfound adjustment was for the better. While Asami was studying hard in school to keep up with her siblings, Azula met a new student named Lawrence Lum. Lawrence and his family had just moved into Pleasentville only a few days prior to Lawrence's first day of school. Azula learned all she could about this interesting student and even followed him home after school to help finish unpacking. The two started spending more and more time together, doing homework, watching movies, and eating out. As expected, something began to spark between them and soon they were found close together looking up at the stars. In the midst of all her sighs, Azula found the courage to ask
Lawrence if he wanted to go steady. At first Lawrence seemed hesitant and then simply replied no, but to her surprise, when she asked again, he said yes. Unfortunately, prom had passed and her prom date was far too late to attend. Even so, Azula and Lawrence had a prom night of their own. They went to the movies, then went out for dinner, and finally returned to Azula's house for a full night of dancing. With Kagura and Chin-Han's permission, Lawerence was allowed to spend the night. Their evening was magical, and they wished even more they could have gone to prom together. The school year went on and the expectations of a teen continued. Kagura and Chin-Han were finding it difficult to teach Azula, Asami, and Yuta how to drive all at once. The once exciting experience quickly became tiresome and irritating for both the teacher and the student. In due time, they all received their permits, and were off on the road almost everyday. As the teens were coming into their own and getting ready for adulthood, Hitomi, Hinako, and Makoto were getting ready for high school. The young ones finally graduated
from middle school and headed on to bigger and better things in high school. Graduation for the teens wasn't too far around the corner either and grades would soon be ready to be finalized. To reward their children for their hard work in school, Kagura took the all of the teens out for a long night out on the town. Chin-Han stayed behind to catch up on some lost sleep as well as taking the extra time to do some chores around the house. Not believing that Kagura still had the party animal spirit in her old age, the teens thought they could hang out all night long. It was only after a few hours did everyone complain about how tired they were. To her surprise, Kagura could keep up with her old self, but of course, old age wasn't too far behind her, and she was exhausted.
Feeling Makoto has gotten the most out of school since his early years, Chin-Han and Kagura decided to send him off to a boarding school named Smuggdworth Prep School. To better their own education, his twin sisters, Hinako and Hitomi, signed up for after school programs. Kagura and Chin-Han were proud of all of their children's efforts to improve themselves. Graduation had finally come for Yuta, Asami, and Azula but unfortunately, Makoto could not attend since he was off to boarding school that same morning. Yuta graduated with honors and was named "Most Likely to Become a Rock Star" by his peers. Azula graduated with honors as well and received an award for "Most Likely to Take Over the World" by her peers. Asami graduated as valedictorian and was voted "Most Likely to Get Married". Kagura and Chin-Han were very proud of their children and believed their
time had come to let them choose their own lives. They left the house to their children, believing their eldest children could care for their younger siblings. In celebration of graduation, Yuta mustered up the nerve to propose to Magdalena. Unfortunately, she wasn't ready for that kind of commitment, so Yuta went home with a sad look upon his face. Azula chose to celebrate on her own and treated herself to a nice dinner out. Asami was the most excited of them all and didn't hesitate to share her excitement with Kathryn. Although, the two had some time apart, it seemed the feelings had never changed. Kathryn and Asami went to the Huynh Hotel to spend some time alone. That decision brought on more than either of the two were expecting. Asami had proposed, married, and lost her virginity to Kathryn all in one night, but their life changing moments didn't stop there. Kathryn moved in and found herself a new job. Asami found a new job and adopted a baby boy named Taro. Desperate to begin a life together on their own, Asami, Kathryn, and Taro moved out of the Huynh Mansion. So much had happened to Asami in one day that her family couldn't keep up. She had started a new family in only a matter of hours. The only member of the family that could even congratulate them was Yuta, but his visit was short since it was very early in the morning when all of Asami's plans had finished. It was only few days later that something else change in the family tree. Chin-Han had reached the end of his days and was buried at the Huynh cemetery. It was a sad day for all.
