It's finally my birthday! I've been waiting forever to turn 18. I'm a legal adult now, so exciting and nerve racking too. As I was putting makeup on, my parents barged in. I scream and smear my makeup.
"Happy birthday!" They shout while holding cake
"Oh, thank you, but you scared me and ruined my makeup." I laughed
They laughed along as they sing the birthday song. I may be an adult now but I still love this song. Once they finished, I thought about a wish and blew out the candles.
"What did you wish for?" my mom asked
To meet him
"Can't tell." I said instead
She smiled and they walked downstairs chatting happily. I sigh to myself happily and fix my makeup. Ding. I glance at my phone.
Jack Daniels: Hey, Happy Birthday!
Mary Stevens: How'd you know it was my birthday?
Jack Daniels: Facebook notification..?
Mary Stevens: Oh.. right lol
Jack Daniels: Yeah XD good birthday so far? Make any wishes?
Mary Stevens: Yeah actually, and yes
Jack Daniels: What did you wish for?
To meet you
Mary Stevens: Can't tell lol
Jack Daniels: Dang lol, well I'm sure you have a busy day today so I'll ttyl
Mary Stevens: Okay ttyl
I put my phone in my pocket and race downstairs to eat breakfast. I reach for the cake, but my mom hits my hand.
"Ah, ah, after school, honey." she shakes her head
I groan and make eggs instead. Ding Dong. My dad strides to the door and looks through the peephole.
"It's Amber!" he shouts
"Open it then!" I shout back
He opens the door and I can barely hear anything, just hushed whispers. They finally came into the kitchen and I prepare our breakfast.
"Happy birthday!" Amber squeals and pulls me in for a hug
"Thank you!" I laugh and hug her
She pulls out a small box and hands it to me, "It's one of the gifts I got for you."
I thanked her and opened it; it's a beautiful friendship necklace. I gasp softly and put it on right away. She pulls out her half and puts it on and smiles.
"Oh you gotta go!" my mom exclaimed
Amber and I rushed to eat and get to school. We just made it in time, so we ran to our lockers, then to class. As soon as I sat down, I sighed happily. Today is going to be a good day.
