The Unexpected Party

The Unexpected Party

In third grade, we were preparing for our friend's surprise birthday party in school. We planned to decorate our classroom with balloons and thought of bringing a cake. On the following day, we went to school thirty minutes early for the decorations. The work was complete and after ten minutes, we saw our birthday girl coming. But sadly, she was followed by our class teacher who was shocked to see the decorations. She got very angry; our minds went completely blank. Then suddenly Fahim, a friend, stammered, “It's f-for you m-miss…” We all looked at each other with shocked faces. Miss stood still for a while and gradually a smile spread across her face. Her eyes were almost teary as she said that her birthday was actually the next day and she was very happy that we did this for her. Thus, an unexpected birthday party was celebrated!
