𝐎𝐍𝐋𝐘 𝐅𝐎𝐑 𝐘𝐎𝐔

The start of the camping was so beautiful: the music, new people and group talks but suddenly didn't know what happened, everyone ate something junk and said they were tired and went to sleep. I thought we would sit around the campfire and talk but no, these lazy people.

Sleep is nowhere to be found in my eyes. I just keep on changing my sleeping position under my comforter. Being frustrated, I woke up in a jerk. Today I will not let them sleep. I looked around in frustration but I found no one. In the whole big tent I was sleeping alone. Don't say that they are enjoying being outside all alone. I looked at my phone and found it's 11:50 at night. In ten minutes, the day is going to change.

And yeah in ten minutes, even my birthday is going to come. I guess they had planned something for me. That's why they told me to sleep.

I facepalmed myself and hit my forehead with a soft chuckle.

“It's a plan to wish me at 12 o'clock.”

I waited for someone to send me a msg like ‘come outside’. But there was none. Slowly time changed to 11:55 and finally 12. But no one came and surprised me.

What!!? Did they forget to wish me?

“Aisa toh kabhi nahi hota.” I said with a sad pout.
(“ It never happens like this.”)

I opened my phone to check messages from my parents and sister but ‘NO’. They didn't even message me.

Being frustrated and angry, I lay down again covering myself with the comforter but then I started to think what are they doing then?

Removing once again the comforter and throwing it away, I peeped my head out of the tent and started to search with suspicious eyes.

The cold breeze of the mountains hit my face, making me fall for this nature once more. It was all dark outside, only the dim fire was light in the middle of the both tents, but there was something which captured my eyes. There was a white cloth hanging on the rope and in front of the white cloth was a projector. I got confused because I didn't see any of the things before with us then from where did they come?

I was just thinking of these things when suddenly something like a figure formed on the white cloth and I guess, it was projected through the projector. But wait! Are they?..... My parents?

I took a step closer and slowly it was clearly visible. They were my parents, smiling wide and looking at me. I thought it's just a picture of them but when my father waved his hand at me. I was left shocked. Is this for real?

“HAPPY BIRTHDAY.” They all shouted, making me flinch but I was not able to digest what happened.

I was standing all frozen when suddenly I felt a light pat on my shoulder. I turned only to find my friends standing there, smiling wide. I once again turned to see if it was for real or my dream but when I did it was real. They were looking at me with lots of love. Tears formed in my eyes and it didn't take more time to fall from the eyes.
