Happy easter day!🥳🎉🐇🥚🐣
Young (colonies)America POV
"Alright kids, line up behind the white line." My mommy hums, clapping her hands joyfully.
China grabs my hand, "come on, let's go to this end. There aren't that much people and I see a lot of Easter eggs!"
I smile widely, "okay China!"
We skip to the end of the white line. While waiting, I map out the path we should take to maximize our eggs. There's a blue egg right in front of use so one of us should get that. Then there's a purple egg that's a little farther. "China, I'll run to the back to get eggs while you take the front. That way we can win!" I exclaim.
China nods, "okay 美国!" We look at the other children that are starting to fight for a better spot on the line where there are numerous eggs. China holds my hand tightly, "they're stupid."
"I agree." I giggle. I look towards our empty baskets, wondering something. "Why do you call me 美国?"
China stays silent for a while which worries me. I look at him and he seems to be covering his face with his other hand. "Because you're beautiful." He mumbles shyly.
"Thanks," I stutter, looking away from him. My best friend thinks I'm beautiful! I feel so warm inside. "I think you're very handsome," I say, adding to the awkwardness.
"谢谢," he mutters. It doesn't help that we're holding hands because I know my palms are sweaty, and his is too. But we don't let go. It's as if we want to stay like this.
The tapping of a microphone is heard. An empire, probably R.E., stands on the stage with a wide grin on his face. "On the 'go', you guys can start collecting your eggs. The top three with the most eggs will get a surprise gift!"
"Папа, what kind of surprises?" I see a kid ask. He looks to be around our age. Maybe China's age since he looks older. He's also wearing a weird fluffy hat. It's not even cold, why is he wearing it?
The empire chuckles, "that's for you to find out when you win. Now kids, are you ready?"
"Yeah!" Everyone screams as loudly as they can. China and I look at each other, ready to win this prize. I hope it's something that I like. Or maybe, McDonald's! Daddy hasn't bought me any happy meals since forever!
"Ready,
Set,
Go!"
We take off. I run to the back where the majority of eggs are. All I could think about is to collect eggs. Red, white, blue, green, yellow—collect them all! I try taking a purple egg, but someone else snatches it away from me. It's the same person who asked about the surprises. "Give it back!" I glare.
The guy in the weird hat glares back, "I got it first. Go find another egg."
Being the stubborn person I am, I take the egg out of his basket and make a run for it. "That's not nice!" He shouts, chasing after me.
"You're not nice!" I scream back, collecting a few more eggs on the way. He clearly stole the egg I got so it's only fair I'm taking it back!
I accidentally trip on the bumpy ground, holding my basket tightly as I do. Unfortunately, he lands on top of me. "Get off!" I shriek, not wanting my dress to get even more dirty or else daddy will get mad.
"Not until you give me the egg you stole from me!" He huffs, turning me onto my back so that I'm facing him.
I try pushing him off of me while screaming, "I touched that egg first! You're the one who stole it." He glares at me, unable to admit that he's in the wrong.
