My birthday came off on last Monday. I invited a number of my friends to a feast which my father had arranged. The time of the function was six in the evening. We were all busy in making arrangements the whole day. A special canopy was erected in the big compound of the house. It was tastefully decorated with colorful buntings and balloons. Tables were laid and covered with white sheets. A big birthday cake was placed on the central table. By 4 P.M. everything was ready.
