Life as a Birthday Card


Author's Note: This is a creative piece on the live of a birthday card.

When I was created, I was the best card ever. On the front it said, "Party…….." and on the inside it says, "…Like there is no tomorrow." I knew I would sell super quick, but I was wrong. When I was first put on the shelf I sat and talked to the birthday cards next to me. At first I was super excited, but as the days past, I slowly started to lose hope. It fell like forever, until one day a boy come into the isle. He starts looking at all the cards. I had to choose me, he has to. Until finally he picks me up and takes me to the check-out. Yes! Oh, I am so excited, the day has finally come. Once I got home, they put me into the envelop. It pitch-black in here and I can't see anything.

I the darkness I wait. Until I feeling I am moving. Yes, he is open the envelop. The birthday boy pulls me out, but wait. Dang, we have to wait, his mother has to find a camera. The boy starts reading me. "Party……..Like there is no tomorrow, from your friend." But he doesn't put me down to open his present he keeps reading me over again. In the same boring tone. "Party……..Like there is no tomorrow, from your friend." "Party……..Like there is no tomorrow, from your friend." "Party……..Like there is no tomorrow, from your friend." If his mother doesn't find that camera I might go crazy! "Party……..Like there is no tomorrow, from your friend." "Party……..Like there is no tomorrow, from your friend." "Party……..Like there is no tomorrow, from your friend." AHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHH!!!!!!!!!!! I am going to explode pretty soon! "Party……..Lik…" Finally she found the camera, now he can continue. After I am placed on a shelf, for all to see. That is my life as a birthday card.
