Chapter 21: Happy Anniversary Day

<8pm>

Dinner was ready! Gosh, I've never been so hungry before I swear.

Yeah duh all you ate was cereal, and it wasn't that much.

As per normal, I would always be the last person to join the family before dinner starts. Guess what people, Serene's actually cooking spaghetti! To be honest, I've been craving to eat this thing from like last month. I know I can actually buy it anywhere but I gotta admit though, Serene's kinda spaghetti is so different, it's way more delicious, especially the sauce oh my god.

Perhaps she have some secret ingredients hmmm~~

"Hey Diana! Come join us!" Aunt Serene was serving the plate now and she seems happy. That's weird. Weird because the smile isn't the fake ones, it's like her smile really makes her face brighten for the first time. I've never seen her happy like that before. Even Dad was smiling too. I came to the dining table and saw Ana looking at the spaghetti, trying to control her hunger. All I did was to sit there and think... Hmm is there something that I don't know? I tried to think hard if there's any special event held today or maybe.... Woah.

Hold up. I remember what day is it now!

I suddenly gasp out loud remembering this special day. My eyes bulged out and I cover my mouth that was hanging.

"Diana you drowning or what it seems like you need more oxygen! What's wrong with you?" Ana asked sarcastically but wondering if I'm okay or not. Dad and Aunt Serene looked at me too, wondering the same thing.

"Ana, you don't know?" I looked at her, surprise that she didn't know a thing before turning my head towards the couple "It's their anniversary day! Happy Anniversary day!!" I put my hands together and grin. I'm so happy for Dad.. and yeah, of course Aunt Serene. Okay I know I'm not close with Aunt Serene and I don't really like her much, but having her makes Dad happy, then I don't mind.

"Oh my God you knew it? I thought.." Serene hold her chest and look at me, glad that there's still someone remember their anniversary. I thought she might be acting or something in front of dad but her eyes told me the opposite ; It's really glittery with happiness, like you know, she's touch.

"Of course I do!" I smirked proudly, "I used to sneak around Dad's office and look at his calendar and BOOSH! The date stuck in my head!" I saw dad squinting his eyes on me, "No wonder my snacks in my cupboard there are getting lesser each day! So it was you huh!" It makes everyone laugh including him.

I turned around to see Ana, "Yo Ana, wanna say something to your parents or give a speech or whatever? Come on stand up and give some speech man!" I nudged her arms and wink. She was hesitant to do it maybe for some reason it's ridiculous but I forced her to. I mean come on she's the only daughter & she's supposed to know her parents anniversary anyway yet she's like so blur, bruh. Nevermind, let's not make a fuss out of anything, I don't wanna spoil the day since everyone's in a good mood and I want to eat as soon as this thing ends. Slowly as a snail, she stood up and smile hesitantly even though she felt reluctant to do so.

"Erm.. Mum, dad. Happy Anniversary?" she was holding her hem of the skirt, not knowing what to say much. "Just hope you guys have fun okay! Love you mum, dad." she sat down and huffed in relieve, but not too loud.

"Now it's my turn.." I smirked and stood up, adjusting my A7X shirt and clear my throat before starting my speech. Dad's arms were sling on Aunt Serene's shoulder while her head rested on his chest.

"I would like to wish both of you a Happy Anniversary Day! I don't know for how long you've been together but I believe there were ups and downs you guys have gone together and succeed in overcoming it," suddenly I recalled what happened during English lesson about the topic Love. I smiled to myself and continued "You both hurt each other; Aunt might go all dragon on Dad and blow fire on his butt for being foolish or vice versa," that makes them chuckled slightly, "But in the end you still protect each other when one's in need. In the heat of the fight, you guys probably said 'get lost I don't wanna see you anymore' when actually you don't want them to go and want them to come to you, saying 'I'm sorry and I love you'. On the phone call you guys said bye to each other when actually you guys don't wanna hung up the phone because you gonna miss the voice the second they leave. Basically you guys need each other because you're like a precious little gem and you guys love each other." Dad kissed her forehead, making her eyes watery and her lips trembling even when she smiled "Everything seems to be more wonderful when you're in love. So always remember this date where you guys actually married together legally. Love and embrace every moment with each other while you guys still alive. I hope you guys last long. Once again, Happy Anniversary Day." I bowed and sat down. Like previously in English lesson, I get a thunderous clap from them. Aunt Serene wipe her tears away and gave me that motherly smiled
