Prologue

I happily walk down the stairs of our house wearing my emerald princess gown that my dad had bought me. As I walk towards the door where my dad is waiting for me with my princess tiara and my matching wand I kept my smile on my face indicating that I was overjoyed.

As he locked our door, I just keep twirling around while admiring the little shiny beads attached to the end of my gown. My dad walks towards me while smiling and began to hold my hand.

"Daddy, Do we go to McDonald's now?!" I happily exclaim as we walk towards the cab.

"Of course, I promised you we would buy 20 nuggets for you, right?" My dad answers as he put the tiara on my head and fix it.

Today is my 8th birthday and I'm sure I'm already old enough for my age. My dad would be the best dad ever, he doesn't break any promises and he is like an angel sent by Jesus. I looked at the window, lips slightly parted as we passed a new sculpture built in front of the west museum

"Daddy, I would make sculpture someday!" I shout making my dad laugh and nod his head in agreement.

We past many buildings after that we made a turn and I can see a lot of plants and big trees. I was more than confused because this is too far to my house and I remember once, Mcdonalds would just be just around a corner maybe 2 blocks away. I lock my two eyebrows together and  my hands crossed on my chest,we're not going to McDonald's I knew it. My dad saw my sudden move and sigh.

"We're near McDonald's sweetheart." Dad said and started smiling contagiously that his eyes begin to crinkle to cheer me up.

I immediately shook my head.

"There are no trees near McDonald's" I heard my dad sigh before he handed me his phone.

My dad stays silent as I play on my his phone. He knows how to keep me quiet and behave just by letting me  borrow his phone and play random games on it. It was a 30 minute drive and my dad keeps on wiping my forehead because I am sweating and I blame my gown because it was to thick and huge but I don't really care because it was glamorous.

We stopped at the middle of the road and dad paid the cab driver. We walk towards the deserted rocky area and I can't help but whine so my dad was forced to carry me. After 5 minutes of walking he told me to close my eyes so I wouldn't catch any particles inside my eyes because it was windy..

"Open your eyes princess" Daddy states and I slowly opened my eyes to see a surprise princess themed Birthday party.

"SURPRISE ALLY!" They all shouted and I put my hands over  my mouth while gasping. Daddy throw me a party, and the best is it's a princess party, matching with my princess emerald gown.

I realize something causing me too frown and cross my tiny hands over my chest.

"What's wrong LiLi?" Aroan asks, he's my big brother. He usually call me LiLi a nickname for my nickname Ally which is a nickname for my full name Alliyah. Calling nicknames  was a special thing for us brothers and sisters.

"Daddy did not bought me my nuggets" I said and point to daddy who was busy talking on his phone.

"Oh That reminds me little kid, I have a surprise for you"

"I was already surprise when you called me little but we're just at the same height" I said then pout making my 10 years old brother laugh.

He run towards the gift table which was consumed with five big gifts.Then run towards me hands on his back.

"Close your eyes first"

"No! I already closed my eyes earlier" I whine

"Then no big surprise for you"
