Evening came quicker than usual but I was happy, I was finally going to meet my dad after a long time.
"Annie!
You done little sis? I get that it's your birthday but we can't be late or dad....."
My brother's jaw dropped as his words got stuck in his throat.
What you've not seen a sixteen year old before? I asked pushing my hair back and walked right passed him.
"Annie wait , you look beautiful tonight." My brother said as he put a diamond bracelet on my wrist.
My first gift of the day and it wasn't from my best friend this time.
Thanks Chase, I love it. I said smiling and he was pleased with himself.
We walked to the car and he opened the door for me to get in before getting in.
I glanced at the driver in the mirror and my face lit up with thousand rays of emotions.
Good evening miss Annie, I'm sorry I couldn't wish you a happy birthday earlier and here's your gift.
Gordon has been our driver since childhood, he'd drive us everywhere anytime even when it was not allowed. I'd forgotten what it was like seeing him on occasions like this, he'd always show up formally dressed and he always says the right things.
We arrived at the mansion and for some strange reason I tensed anxious about something but I couldn't tell what.
Gordon helped me out of the car and I thanked him.
He patted my back slightly and assured me everything will be fine.
The mansion was decorated grand style and I knew my father was up to something.
He stood at the door looking dashing as he always does on occasions like this.
Dad?
Ann honey happy birthday. He said with a smile.
