Birthday Gift

In the morning:

I got up early due to phone calls and messages. All of my relatives wished me and gave me blessings. I got ready for the class and all of us went together to attend the class.

At lunchtime, after attending the lectures, we were going back to the hostel. Suddenly someone called my name. I turned back to see it, It was Nyan's friend, Nyan was also with him.

They approached us.

"Happy Birthday, Myra", Nyan's friend said.

"Thank you", I said.

"Happy Birthday", Nyan said.

"This is from us", Nyan's friend said and gave me a gift. It was a Chocolate pack.

"Thanks, but I can't take this", I replied.

"No, you have to take it, this is just a small gift from us", Nyan's friend said.

"No, I mean there is no need of it", I said.

"Myra, it's a gift for you. Please take it", Nyan's friend said.

"Yes, please take it", Nyan said.

"umm, Okay, thank you", I said.

"let's meet in the cafeteria after the classes", I said to Nyan and his friend.

"Okay", They said.

My eyes were full of tears when I received that gift. I was quite emotional at that time. "He didn't even wish me nicely, then what is the need of giving this gift", I thought.

In the evening, we all gathered in the cafeteria, Nyan and his friend also joined us. I ordered the snacks for us. Suddenly, My NGO team came over there and wished me. They brought a chocolate cake with them and asked me to cut the cake. I never thought that they will come to wish me. I cut the cake and all of them pasted it on my face. I went to clean my face in the washroom. Andy and Nitika accompanied me. When I came out, I ordered some snacks for them too. After that, I went to the table where Perry and Nyan were sitting. The snacks came and we started to eat them. I went to accompany the NGO Team too. I was roaming between these too.

Suddenly I heard some people wishing me Happy Birthday from behind. When I look back, It was the cultural committee of our college. I joined that 4 months ago. We organize cultural events in college from time to time. I have a good bonding with the NGO and the cultural committee. But I never thought that they would surprise me like this.

They also bring a cake for me, It was a pineapple cake. I was wearing a yellow top at the time. And the cake was matching with my dress. So, It was the third cake for me. I cut the cake and they all wished me happily. I ordered some snacks for them too. Now I was roaming to three tables. Although It was quite tough, I was enjoying this. These surprises made my day.

The party was over and we went back to the hostel. I was too happy today. I told Deera everything. I already gave the treat to Deera and her friends at lunchtime. Deera was happy for me too.

She asked, "Did Nyan said something today?"

"No, Nothing", I replied.

"Oh, Okay", She replied.

"But I have decided to end this. I mean I don't have any feelings for him since that day. ( the day when Perry told about his messages ) So I don't want to continue this anymore.", I replied.

"Ok, Good for you', She said.

If I ignore Nyan's part, the whole day was a very special day for me. It was my 18th birthday and it was the best birthday ever. I was too happy, I thought about the day whole night and happily went back to sleep.

The next day, I received a message from Nyan, "Hi". I ignored the message at the moment and didn't reply. After 1 or 2 hours, I reverted him "Hello".

After that, no message came. I think he also understood that I don't want to continue this anymore.

So we didn't chat after that day for months. The second semester was over and we went back to our hometown for the vacations.
