Today, I, Sarah Walter turned twenty.
My day started with a pineapple bottom, red velvet cake on the bed, and lily petals showering from the ceiling.
It was magical. Mary did a very good job than before.
The moment I opened my bedroom door, I was greeted by mom and dad with their arms wide open. It was very unusual to see a smile on daddy's face.
I could not believe my eyes either at first. But then they pulled me in for the big teddy bear hug. It was something new that I think I m going to cherish for the rest of my life.
I have so many things to update on but I really have no time for right now.
Daddy has thrown a big party downstairs with all the famous people invited. And there will be Dan too.

"Sarah are you ready??"
I dropped my pen the moment I heard my mother's voice. And even before I could hide my diary, she burst through inside.
"Sarah ??? What are you doing??"
Her quacky voice made me drop my diary but it was my least concern to pick it up and hide it for she would see it.
"You are not even half ready...Sarah ?? Dan's family would be here any moment from now.."
She walked inside, and I finally decided to grace her with my front. Thanks to God, my makeup was done already.
"I m almost ready mom."
"No, you are not. Your hair is still not done and..."
"..only because I decided to keep it open."
I interrupted her right away so that she would not panic anymore. She was always like this.
"Dan likes it when I keep it that way."
I gave her a reason so that she could believe it because I did not like to keep my hairs open.
Her face softened and strode forward where I stood, leaning on the dressing table.
"I m so happy to see you two are finally getting along, Sarah ."
Mom said, brushing her palm lovingly on my cheeks. I gave her a quick nod, returning her smile.
"Oh and wear this."
