My Best Birthday Present
“I hope you like the present,” Aunt Julie told me with a twinkle in her eye. I nodded and thanked her for the gift. From the size of the box, I thought I would be getting a new pencil case.
I shrieked in delight when I opened my present that night. My aunt had given me the latest Play station Portable game console. I was in seventh heaven. I had been longing for it for the past month but my parents refused to buy it for me. They said that it was too expensive. I opened the box and took out the shiny new console. Aunt Julie had also bought me my favourite racing game. I could not believe it. I pinched myself just to make sure that I was not dreaming. I immediately charged the battery so that I would be able to use it the next day. I slept very late that night as I read through the manual from cover to cover. I was amazed by the different features. I could even download my favourite songs.
That night, I slept with the manual under my pillow. I dreamed that I was playing with my new game console. It was a dream comes true. It was the best present that I had ever received.
