I woke up as the sunrays hit my face I came out of the bed and walked to the bathroom to wash my face. I went down
and saw my parents Mom was busy cooking breakfast and Dad was reading newspaper sitting on the couch in the hall.
I felt something uneasy but I ignored it and jumped beside him happily "Good Morning Sam" he said looking at the newspaper "Good Morning" I said back I expected him to say something else but it he didn't said "today is my birthday and why he's not wishing me and he used to be the first person to wish me happy birthday."
"Did he forgot my birthday!? No No sam he won't" I said to myself and was busy in my thoughts until I heard my mom's voice "Sam go and fresh up the breakfast is almost ready" she said shouting from the kitchen I walked upstairs to fresh up.
I came down wearing a oversized hoodie and shorts. I sat on the dining table and saw my sister giving me a weird look "What!?" I asked "Why you wearing this!?" she asked "What's wrong with this?" I said "It's not looking good on you, you should've wear something else" she said making a weird face "Ohh reallyy!?Fine I don't care" I said totally ignoring her which made her angry and she was mumbling something looking at me.
I was walking towards my room thinking deep "Why they are not wishing me!? Did they really forgot my birthday or they're just acting to surprise me?" "No No they won't because they know I don't like surprises and they won't surprise mee but still why they didn't they wish!?" All this thoughts were running in my mind. "Ohhh sam stop stop it!!" I stomped my foot totally being irritated with my thoughts. I decided to take some rest so I slept which is the only thing I'm good at.
I came out having a nice shower I felt relieved. I opened my cupboard and took out the purple kurta I got ready and saw the time and it was almost 6 in the evening. I left the house and within 15 minutes I reached the place I parked my scooty and stood infront of the temple. I always come to this temple on my birthday and I really like this place. I went inside and saw Lord Shiva the one whom I trust the most and gives me the strength to fight back. "Shivji today is one of the good day in my life. Today all that I'm, or hope to be, I owe you. Bless mee. I prayed and took the darshan (vision of god) and came out and sat on the bench. Sitting here alone feels so relaxed and good it feels very peaceful after sitting for some minutes I headed towards home.
I reached and entered inside and what I saw next literally surprised me. My precious person was standing infront of me helding her arms out and smiling widely at me. It had been 2 years since I last met her. She still looks young and beautiful and her charming smile made her more beautiful and kind women she is. In my eyes she's truly an angel for me. I ran to her and hugged her tightly "HAPPY BIRTHDAY SAM!!" she said patting my back "Thank you soo much grandma" I said and she broked the hug "I missed youu soo much grandma!!" I said "I missed youu too Samm" she said wiping my tears.
It was time to cut the cake. I saw my favorite KitKat flavor cake. I cut the cake and everyone was singing the birthday song I took the piece of cake and feed it to my lovely grandma and one by one to everyone. The celebration was over and it went smoothly. Though I didn't like surprises this was the best surprise for me. We played games and danced and we all enjoyed the party.
I was sitting on the couch listening to my cousins gossips. We heard a voice calling us to have a dinner. We sat on the chair and I saw all my favorite food items had made. I stared at the food and it made my mouth watering the moment the food was served I took a spoonful of biryani and ate it the food was so tasty "Uhmmm" I said chewing my food and feeling the taste of it. I was eating like I didn't have from years.
The dinner was over and now everyone was busy in seeing the photo albums and making fun of each other and most of the times they were teasing me after looking at my childhood photos. I was really happy seeing my whole family after years. The only member here missing was my Grandfather he passed out 2 years ago I really miss him everyday. I saw my grandma looking at me I smiled at her.
