You left a black mark on my heart

A Special Moment With My Family

We celebrated my cousin's birthday last week ! It was a happy event. Initially, my cousin had planned for nothing but a simple celebration at home, but my mother insisted on bringing her for a big day out. Let me tell you more about my immediate family's relationship with my cousin. She has always been very close to our family. When she was 21, she became an air stewardess. As she lived in Woodlands, which is very far away from the airport, she moved to our place to stay. Ever since then, she has been living with us.

That Sunday morning, we went out for the movie, "Invictus" and it was really enjoyable. The storyline was good and inspiring. After the movie, we went for some dessert at an ice cream shop beside the cinema. My cousin and I had green tea ice cream while my father and mother had chocolate and vanilla ice cream respectively. After a minor discussion, we decided to go for bowling.

It was expected that my cousin had won the game. She was a very good bowler, and the only one among us who could rival her was my father. He won the first round, but the other three rounds were taken by my cousin. I, on the other hand, was constantly competing with my mother for third or fourth position.

After we had played 3 rounds, we went to a chinese restaurant and sang the birthday song to my beloved cousin. I could have sworn I saw a tear drip from her eye as she made her wish. We all congratulated her on turning a year older and enjoyed our dinner. All in all, it was a really special day for us.
