The Story
The mirror showed my reflection; my eyes flickered with excitement and impatience of a teenager. I took a last glance at my own reflection before walking out of the restroom. I walked over to the table, where my guests are seated. They were busy chatting with one another before i caught their attention. A few pair of their eyes followed my every move, until i settled down on my assigned seat. Then, the next few minutes felt..weird.
A cake. Laid in front of me. Two lit big candles. Each representing 10 years of age. A long-winded HBD song filled my ears. I look around. A band stood not far from my right. Oh, the song came from them. Too bad though. No ponchos. No Mexicano Dance. =S Then, the song stopped. A waitress came up to me. With a beaming face and pearl-white smile, she squealed out three words I expected to hear:
"Happy 20th Birthday!!!!"
I feel embarrassed, hoping no one heard that. I smile a norm one back, grateful to her greeting. "Thank you."
Then I hear my guests calling me. "Make a wish, Nisa.""Blow the candles, Nisa. Blow it."
And i did.
The HBD song resumed but i ignored them. Sorry, i was listening to my iPod.
I turned toward my guests, all seated not far from me. Their faces with joy and glee, each eager for the cake. I blow the candles out and thought to myself:
'@#$%@#$%!!!!!! I was 16 yesterday and now I'm 20?? Amaze me, O Time, AMAZE me mann!!!'
Hesitantly, I sliced the cake with unnecessary force. I was then officially a year older, oh wait, 4 YEARS OLDER. =.=)"
