The Birthday..

1 month ago

I was excited, it was my birthday. I had to be happy, friends, family, everyone was here. It was a grand party.

"Honey! Are you ready? Everyone is waiting." My mom asked entering the room in a straight peach dress. She looked like a beautiful woman in her 30s.

Well! Depends on your definition of ready. Where is Andrea? I have been calling her for so long. She was supposed to get me my dress.

Honey! Ryan has brought your dress already, Andrea had some last-minute work so she'll be joining us in some time, and since you have ordered Tyler to get you your favorite cake so he and Kol are on cake duty. Pretty sure these all are the only people you care are here or not.

Seriously mom? I had told her like a hundred times I don't need a posh party. I just wanted close family and a handful of friends. I just wanted attention from those who actually cared. All these people and I don't know a majority of them and now she is complaining that I don't care about the guests.

Mom, for the hundredth time, I don't care about Andrea or Tyler or any of them. Why don't you people believe me? They are all annoying and I just bear them for the sake of bearing.

Yea sure honey! You don't care for them, why does this remind me of some incidents? Maybe around 10 years ago. Oh, yea. I remember. Weren't you the one who..

Please, mom! I was just a bit out of my mind at that time. You can't really blame me and for the hundred and one times, I just can't even stand the sight of them. They are annoying.

Fine, your choice. I am gonna go downstairs, get ready, and join us.

So basically, I need to get ready, attend the party have all the fun and it's over. Not a big deal, sure I can ignore the unwanted guests. Sounds easy.

The party was finally over, I was so sick of anonymous faces starting that same old short talk but Andrea managed to save me every time my nerves almost started to pop. She was my literal knight in shining armor today. Tyler was late for the first time in his life, apparently, he met someone who had a terrible accident, the car was burned to ash but God knows how the hell did that person survive. Ryan and Tyler brought him home. I have a really strong feeling that there's something wrong with him. He made Tyler his friend, Tyler is the last person in the world who would make friends this easily. Like I said, a typical introvert. Everyone is downstairs showing hospitality to that guy and I think I pass. I am definitely in no mood to meet any new face today. I am gonna forget my own family's face if I see any new person today

Victoria's POV

Victoria! Your brothers are calling you downstairs. You haven't even met them yet.

Well! Dad, why don't you ask them to come upstairs. I am too tired to stand on my feet anymore and wait, since when have you been here because I clearly didn't see you entering.

How could you? You were so busy in your own world. Tired or not, be a good girl and come meet them. They have a present for you.

Oh yea, please, that trick is just a few centuries old to use. No way I am falling for your bait.

You are a smart one. You have inherited smart genes.

Obviously, mom has always been smart.

Well! Sure I can't argue anymore. My life is much more important than my pride.

My father wasn't ready to take no for an answer and I didn't feel like arguing anymore was worth it. All they asked was to come to meet them, not like going on a trip with them. Pretty sure I wouldn't have survived if it was a trip. Kol is surely gonna chew my head off, Tyler being his usual boring self, well Ryan being Ryan I can't actually really find some problem but I still won't be able to bear him, it's just Andrea I might not have any problem with but she can sometimes be annoying too. Well! Why exactly am I thinking about it, that day of doom when I actually go out with them isn't gonna come.
