Troy will be turning 15 tomorrow. He is pretty excited about it but at the same time quite anxious. You see, Troy is pretty worried that his family have forgotten all about his birthday. Usually when someone in the family’s birthday is coming up, they will be talking about it at least a month before. They will plan about the celebration including who to invite and what food to serve. But this year, nobody mentioned Troy’s birthday even once.
Troy tried hinting to his mom that tomorrow will be a special day. He even tried to suggested cake decorating ideas to his mom. He only got disappointed when his mom said that everyday should be treated as a special day. Troy talked about this with his best friends, Claire and Will. But they, too, seem to have forgotten his birthday as well.
The following day, Troy woke up to a very quiet house. It seems that his whole family was out. When he entered the kitchen, he found a note stuck on the refrigerator. It read “We are at Grandma’s. Be there by lunch.”
Troy grudgingly walked towards his Grandma’s house by lunchtime. As he opened the door, he was greeted by series of flashes and shouts from his family and friends. They have remembered his birthday after all.
