(Night)
I closed the door after coming home from the minimarket in front of the house to buy some snacks.
I was looking around for my cousin's whereabouts, but. I followed him in his room. Uhm.., it seems my efforts were in vain. Where's she?
"Ah done. At most he went out." I walked into the kitchen, opened the fridge and put some food in it.
I walked into the room with a snack in my hand and a box of yougurt.
KreKKkkk.
I opened the door and entered. I sat at the study table opening a novel and then read it while enjoying the snacks.
GLAKES!
Yougurt drops spilled on the pages of the novels I read. Immediately, I took a tissue and wiped it.
I went back to the next page. Read slowly. Again, again, and on to the next page.
DUAR!!!!!!
An explosion, I don't know what it was, shocked me. The sound was loud and close. I walked closer to the window. Checking what happened.
I didn't see anything. Where did that sound come from?
"Most complex kids are nosy." I'm back at the table.
THE DUAR!!!
I heard another very loud sound. Now not only once, but many times to make me very upset and had to curse.
I walked towards the window. Hut the window and then raise your head outside. I looked up. There's absolutely nothing.
PRAK PRAK!!
I immediately turned to the origin of the voice. The fireworks that were seen in the sky, made me amazed to see how beautiful the fireworks were.
My former annoyance turned to joy. A smile on my lips.
Suddenly a cheer came from under the room, in the front yard of the house.
How shocked I was, surprised at all. People gathered there. With very beautiful lights and decorations.
"HAPPY BIRTHDAY TO YOU..." They sang happy birthday songs.
I just realized that today is my 21st birthday. How stupid I was to forget my birthday.
PROK PROK PROK PROK PROK PROK PROK PROK PROK PROK.
They applauded to welcome me. I was completely moved and my eyes began to tear full of a very deep day.
How not, some people who no longer seem to consider me a friend, they are there, including my cousin who I was looking for from earlier.
Angel, my best friend held a birthday cake and put it on the table. People stand up to make a circle.
I was about to blow out a candle, but suddenly....
"Wait!!!" The circle slowly opened the way. Giving way to someone who exclaimed outside the circle earlier.
The atmosphere became very quiet and tense.
Slowly the man approached entering the circle.
I looked towards that guy.
"Are you celebrating without your mama?"
I was so shocked and totally unexpected.
Mama was there. My mother walked over to me. I immediately hugged my mother tightly with eyes that began to emit water droplets.
"Blow the candle, blow the candle...." People started singing asking me to blow out the candles.
I made a wish. Then blow out the candles.
"HUH!!!" The fire on the candle went out.
People applauded and cheered.
(A few days later)
I was standing next to my mom. My hand holds my mother's hand. I was really happy that night.
Then, while enjoying the evening meal, Jobes and the rest of my friends came up to me, gave a speech, embraced me and apologized for everything that had happened. In fact, all this time, they were just pretending to be mad at me.
It was an unforgettable night for me. Everyone looked so happy that night.
