Chương 89: A Forgotten Birthday

"My birthday," I said with wide eyes, I was so consumed by my dreams and everything that I forgot my birthday was a day away, have it drawn close so soon? How could I have forgotten? Mother must have known because she holds my records.

"You silly girl," Mother scolds. "Birthdays are not something to be forgotten for they happen once a year"

"Forgive me, Mother, for it really crossed my mind"

She sighed. "It's alright... So tell me how big do you want it? How should we celebrate, the Ballroom is at your disposal"

I gulped. "Forgive me, Mother, I have never celebrated my birthday before for it doesn't bring joy to me, it's also the anniversary of my Mother's death"
