Celebrations?






We were at this fancy restaurant,

which was a full house, bustling with kids.

We managed to get a table and 

a cute boy aged around 12,

walked up-to me and asked

"Shall I clean the table??"

I nodded in affirmation and asked "Why the big rush, today?"

"Today's November 14th"

he said, remorsefully!!!
