"Svetlana"
(Again no answer)
"SVETLANA"
"Yes, yes, I'm in here."
"Are you daydreaming again?"
"Er...well..um...I guess so."
"I knew it."said Amber silently under her breath.
"Heard that!"
"Forget about it and get yourself downstairs immediately. How in the world are we suppose to have a birthday party without the birthday girl?"sighed Amber.
"I'm coming. I'm coming"said Svetlana as she quickly jumped off her bed.
*******************
Amber is Svetlana's babysitter or should I say "was" her babysitter. Currently, she is her cook @driver @ gardener @ house maintainer as she calls herself. Let's say Amber is like Svetlana's second mom, maybe a sister or even her best friend. In a nutshell, she's everything to her. Imagine Amber started cradling her in her arms when she was only 3 years old. After 2 years working with the Hayes , they grew fond of her and put a great deal of trust towards the 18 year old girl. Since Mr. and Mrs Hayes were constantly busy and the matter of fact that they were often out of town,they decided to let Amber stay with them. Besides, it would even make things more convenient to babysit Svetlana. Amber agreed entirely as she had fall in love with the cute little girl not mentioning that Amber was an orphan and had to move out of the orphanage after 17. As Svetlana grew older and was able to take care of herself, Amber thought that it was time for her to leave but it came to a stop after Svetlana begged her endlessly to stay. In the end, the pale, bronze coloured hair girl became one of the Hayes till this very day.
*************************
All eyes were on Svetlana as she gracefully made her way downstairs. She was indeed a pretty girl which anyone would fall in love with at first sight. Dressed in a crimson knee length evening gown which hung loosely on her slender body, she looked miraculously gorgeous. Her waist length jet black hair was tied neatly into a pony tail as usual. Mostly, Svetlana resembles her mother's face especially her hazel eyes and her fair complextion. Having rosy cheeks, naturally pink lips and a dimple on her right cheek, you would totally agree if I say that she looks like an angel. Well, that is her nickname anyway. "Hi everyone!" said Svetlana cheerfully as she stepped on the last footstep.
"Hi angel"said her mom as she kissed her lightly on her forehead. "OK everyone, its time to cut the cake".
Svetlana thought of what she would wish for while her father lit the sixteen candles on her cake. "Brilliant!"said Svetlana to herself as a wide grin spread across her face. After singing the birthday song, the sound of clapping and cheering filled the dining room. Meanwhile, Svetlana was deeply in her thoughts as she whispered her wish silently and blew the candles. Svetlana entertained her guests and had an idle talk with them. She opened her presents and soon after that, all her guests went home.
"Mom,Dad,Amber thanks for the convertible Merz! I can barely believe my eyes."said Svetlana excitedly as she hugged each of them tightly .
"Well, there it is whether you believe it or not. Its yours. You deserve it, angel!"said her father as he handed her the keys to her pink convertible
"Its a dream its a dream. Tell me its a dream!!"said Svetlana as she closed her eyes and opened it again. "Its still there. OMG!!!"
Mom put on her serious face."Calm down, Angel. For the 10th time, its not a dream.
A sudden knock made everyone jump and pause for a second. They heard it again and this time it was slightly louder. Dad ordered everyone to stay where they were as walked to the door to check who was it visiting at a time like this. He walked out of the living room and only his heavy treads could be heard as the knocking became louder and louder....
