似水年华 II —— birthday party

妹妹刚上学那会儿,一天我去接她,发现她嘴边有巧克力蛋糕的渣渣,便问:妹妹,今天有 birthday party 啦? 妹妹说yeah, 我又问:是谁的 birthday party 呀?妹妹略带羞涩的说:妹妹的,我说:哦,妹妹的 party 呀,妹妹略带腼腆地幸福地笑了。我想这倒不错,别人家的妈妈买蛋糕张罗,我们家的妹妹过party.
后来,妹妹又过了两三次这样的 birthday party.

直到有一天,去邻居家小妹妹的 birthday party, 小朋友都带上了silly hat,切蛋糕时,妹妹坐在桌前两眼专注的看着蛋糕切成一块块,回过头小声问我:妈妈,it's Melody's birthday? 眼中露出不是很 sure 的眼神,但是还是很期盼,我小声地在她耳边回道:是呀,是妹妹的。妹妹笑了,但以前十足的憨气只剩七八成了。

后来又一次参加这样的 party,切蛋糕时,妹妹自顾自的说:不是妹妹的 birthday party. 妈妈一旁听了,只觉得回天乏力无可奈何花落去。

再次证明世界其实是主观的。---妹妹这么可爱的小姑娘很deserve自己的cake.

她两岁时办过爬梯的,三岁时似乎也吃过蛋糕的。现在提到birthday party, 妹妹就说:only October.

This is how it sounds to me when I take out the Chinese words and use only the English words in this Blog: Birthday party, yeah, birthday party, party, party, birthday party, birthday party, silly hat, it's Melody's birthday, sure, party, birthday party.
If Melody thinks other people's party are hers, then she will think her REAL birth day is someone else's.
