Lily woke up extremely early on that morning and put on clothes which was selected last night. She dressed in a casual way and wore no makeup, but she looked clean and pure. Lily was a detail-oriented girl and she liked to read the New Financial Magazine on the subway because she was major in finance at college and this was the requirement from her professor. Ally was a Stylish girl and she dressed in black and punk rock style. Ally took a photo while Lily was reading even though the train was so busy. Because Ally was very interested in taking photos, she always went anywhere with her camera.

Ally and Lily walked into a coffee shop in the Grand Central Station. Their other friend Vicky usually worked as a part-time job in this coffee shop. This was a lovely café, and a combination of the beige floor and brown wood wall make the environment very peaceful. They found a corner to sit and they were looking for Vicky.

In the other side of cafe, Vicky as a part time waitress was standing in an operation area of this café and she wore the uniform and tried to read the menu once again. Eventually, Vicky found her friends who sit in the corner of the coffee. They smiled and looked at each other at this moment.

Eighth Scene

The appointed four years was coming on time. The cafe was busy as usual, and four girls met again in this cafe which they met four years ago. Brown wood wall had not been decorated at all comparing to four years ago as well as the beige marble flood was only added with some cracks.

Cindy could not wait to start talking to her three old friends before they even sat tightly yet, “I have my dance recital which will be showed on television in the next month!” Lily was surprised, “Really? Congrats, and I am so happy for you!” Everyone else cheered as well.

“You look thinner than before. How did you do that? After I gave my new birth, and I gained so much weight. I had to take care of my kid every day. I have been so tired to be a house wife.” Vicky curiously asked.

“But your baby was so cute, and I wanted to get married as well soon. I went to gym for approximately an hour per day regardless the changes of the weather. I have kept this habit, because I have always wanted to stay fit. I prepared a dance choreography recently, and I was so exhausted.” a sparkle shining in Ally’s eye, and we all knew that was confidence.

“the predictions are accurate. I just got the offer from my dream financial company in the last week. I realized my dream exactly like what the light said.” Lily said excitedly.

Ally drank a mouthful of coffee then said, “I am a full-time photographer right now who no longer has so much free time to travel. But I insist going to gym and dancing when I am free, and it is great stress relief for me. Oh, I have other stuff almost forgot to share with you girls: I will hold my first solo photography show in New York City soon.”

Vicky nodded her head firmly and said, “congratulation to you too! I believe we are all going to have a great time. We change a lot comparing to what we had four year ago. The prediction has pushed us to be far enough as well convinced us to be better people, and we should thank the light has given us this wonderful experience.”

Therefore, we have learnt that the future can be predictable. Besides, the grand central star power was somehow accurate in predicting something the future. The four girls realized that even though life and future was predictable and expected, they have more power hold their own destiny and the future will be determined. They all have the nature of power to accomplish their goals.
