HAPPY BIRTHDAY; YOU FAILED ME AGAIN WITH YOUR GIFT
It is on this day, years ago, that we first met outside our mother's womb. It was this day that we saw each other laugh for the first time. It was this day that we celebrated the most for having born for each other. It was this day that we savoured our favorite pastries with watery mouths. It was this day that we went to school together, for the first time.
It is that day today, OUR BIRTHDAY, the first of June. Everyone who ever saw us together couldn't help but say "You two are indeed made for each other." Oh!Do you know him by the way ? More than my twin brother, he was my best pal, no definition of words could define him.
Today, I was eagerly waiting for him to be out of the washroom, to wish him first hand, as is the custom between us since the past twenty five years. He took much long than usual to be out, despite my continuous calls, all in vain. He knew very well the reason behind my pestering him to come out and I was pretty sure that he was playing on me, that nut-head!
After waiting for such a long time, even for hours, he did come out, a few others did carry him out, to be precise. He couldn't walk towards me, he couldn't talk to me, he didn't laugh or tease at me for being the pathetic victim of his ploy, and I stood there like a halfwit.
See, I have filled his wardrobe with all brands of T's and Shirts. I have no qualms that he will not love them. Also, I could prove that I too could afford expensive birthday gifts for him. No matter what, he did have me stupefied by his surprise for me, in which he had never failed these many years. Oh! lost track of time meanwhile. He is waiting for me in his coffin wearing the way more charming white suit, adorning him as more handsome.
"Hey nut-head, you out-performed me with your surprise, even this year too. But you failed to make me dumbfounded as opposed to what is a scene so often. Moreover, it seems that I have become much more talkative right now, for then, who else will speak loud to the world of your twenty five years long life of accomplishments ?! "
