I woke up that morning with a sigh. No Mother and Father. No friends. No family. I was sad. 4 birthdays spent without anyone I loved. I forced myself out of bed and as soon as my feet touched the cold concreet floor, I dove back into the bed. Wow this was going to be hard! When I finally did get out of bed I thought I heard voices from the lobby. But it was probably my imagination. My imagination had been playing terrible tricks on me lately. I would see my parents then they would say bad things about me and walk away. I realized from my watch it was 10: 17. Well so much for following orders. As soon as you got out of bed you were supposed to have gotten up, gotten dressed, eat, then go to fight outside. But I didn't feel like doing anything today. So I thew on a tshirt and started down stairs. I was just walking normaly when I tripped on a wrinkle in the rug and landed flat on my face. I stood up and brushed my shirt off. I could tell this was going to be a bad day. On my way down the stairs, my foot slipped and I tumbled down the last 8 steps. I wanted to scream. ON MY BIRTHDAY TOO! I closed my eyes and smiled. Well I was still going to enjoy the day with my mother and father. Suddenly my eyes shot open. No I wouldn't. They were dead. I had nothing to look forward to. I opened the doors to the lobby and was greeted by a 'SURPRISE!!!!!!!!!!!' I screamed. I mean who does this sort of thing? Screaming surprise? That is just not cool! Wait how did they know about my birthday? Stalkers! 'Happy Birthday!' A voice cried. Hey I know that voice! I thought. And thats when my best friend I had known from pre- k stepped up. And I knew I had something to look forward to.
