It is my best friend’s 18th birthday tomorrow and we decided to give her a surprise debut party today. We have planned this for a week. We even invited her schoolmates to join us. Despite the short preparation time, we still managed to prepare and buy decorations and food. We were also able to prepare sound system and lights for the celebration.
My best friend thought that we will just have a simple ‘movie marathon’ at April’s house, but little did she know that she would be going to her own party! At first, we thought she wouldn’t be able to come, because she had other things to do, but she arrived shortly before 8PM.
While she paid the tricycle driver, I signaled my friends to get into their positions with balloons in hand and get ready for the surprise. I turned off the lights and went outside to usher her in. When she got in, the lights turned on and everybody greeted her, “Happy birthday!”
She cried a river.
She was so overwhelmed with everything and she did not expect to debut with her friends.
She was escorted by her close friend, Kobe, to her chair and the program started. We were all satisfied and happy with the result, because we saw in her eyes how happy she was.
