Teresa went to her window to see if anyone was there, and she was so surprised to see Harry on his bike waiting outside her house for her. She quickly went out to see him. As she was about to open the door, a lot of ideas past through her mind. She thought,"Is he crazy? Now is already midnight! Oh my G.o.d, how can he come to my house in the middle of the night to wish me Happy Birthday. It"s so dark now is it really safe to travel out in midnight? He is really insane... Wait... How do I face him? Should I scold him or thank him?"
Although she was thinking so much, but she could not deny that she felt really happy and grateful to have such a good friend and a good "big sister" as that was what Harry was like to her.
When she went out, the first thing that Harry said to her was,
"Oh gosh, why were you so slow! My legs are super itchy, there are so many mosquitoes outside your house! Ah! It"s killing me!"
Teresa was speechless. She then replied,
"Who ask you to come so here at such a time? Are you crazy? It"s so dangerous to ride a bike in the middle of the night?"
"Okay, okay, stop with the lecture and come get your presents."
Harry handed to her two gifts and said "This one is from me, and the other one is from Zac and the boys from our cla.s.s."
"Wow, Thank you so much. I really don"t know what else to say." said Teresa.
"No worries, okay, my job here is done. I"m gonna go back first. Good night, and Happy Birthday. See you tomorrow at school."
"Okay, drive safe and let me know when you reach home. Thank you again."
After that, Harry left and Teresa went back into her house, she left her gifts in the corner of her room as she wanted to open it the next day. She also sent a few text messages thanking her friends that wished her and thanked Harry again. Only after Harry replied her messages and told her he had already reached home, then only she decided to sleep as it was already very late and it was way past her bedtime. She was so happy until it was hard to get sleep. When she closed her eyes, the images of her friends wis.h.i.+ng her happy birthday came to her mind. The warm fuzzy feeling filled her heart. And slowly she fell asleep.
...
One the next day, when Teresa was in school, Jane gave her a small packet of presents, it was 2 pairs of earrings. As both Jane and Teresa had the same taste, Teresa liked the gift very much.
"Finally, you are the same age as me. So you can no longer call me OLD, you heard me?" said Jane.
"Yes, we are at the same age already, but you are still older than me by 6 months, this means that I can still call you OLD hahaha." Teresa replied cheekily.
"Arg, why do I have such a "bad" friend."
"You should feel proud to have me as your friend cause only good friends will act "bad" towards you, hahahaha."
The both of them continued with their conversation as the goofed around.
When they were talking, they heard someone called out "Teresa."
Just as she turned her head to look who was that, she was surprised...
