Chapter 2
A Happy Birthday
Clove POV
The next day was my 8th birthday. I woke up in the morning to my sister Evie jumping on my bed and yelling "Clove, Clove? CLOVE! wake up now! You have to come downstairs now, I want you to open the present I got you, HURRY UP!"
I rolled my eyes and threw on my favourite clothes as quickly as I could but my other sister Emmy came up before I was finished, grabbed me by the arm as I tried to get my jacket on and pulled me downstairs to open my presents.
Now, I'm not from the best part of Two, but I have always had quite a few presents, you know, about ten, but this year there were only two, a very big one and a small, flat one.
Evie and Emmy picked up the massive present and gave it to me, telling me that it was from them. I opened this present and discovered it was a large box full of nice things such as shower gel, bath bombs, a new pair of PJs and a lavender scented pillow! I said "Thanks Evie, Emmy, This is really nice! I love these vanilla scented bath bombs." I was amazed by the sheer amount of stuff they had managed to fit into this box, and the biggest surprise of this box was at the bottom where I found a massive suitcase (Black, with CLOVE written on it in big gold letters). I gave them both big hugs to say thank you for all of my presents and then my Mom said "Clovy, we are going to go on a drive in the hovercraft so you can open your other present on the way" I thought that was a bit strange but I had more pressing questions to ask, "Mom" I said "Did Hana and Emi not get me a present this year?" I was slightly disappointed because I had really hoped that they had got me that table size water fountain that I had been hinting about for months (Before you think that I was bigheaded for thinking that they would get me that, Hana had been hinting about getting it for me as well)
Then Mom said "Clovy, they did get you a present but Hana wants to give it to you in person" "OK" I said feeling very happy again. "By the way Mom, can you please stop calling me Clovy?" Mom looked slightly disappointed but sighed "Ok Clovy - sorry Clove, you know I might take me a while to stop, old habits die hard" I nodded "OK Mom, I understand"
Evie tugged on Mom's sleeve and said "Mommy, can Emmy and me come in the hovercraft with you?" Mom considered it for a while and then said "Ok Evie-Bee, you and Emily-Pemily can come on the hovercraft" I was amused by Mom's nicknames for my sisters.
Then Mom said "Clove, Emily, Evie, get in the hovercraft - oh and Clove, don't forget your second present." I grabbed my present from the sofa and jumped in the hovercraft with Evie and Emmy who were squeaking excitedly as Mom got in the driving seat and pressed start. The hovercraft rumbled like a big bear and I was afraid it had broken down but then it roared into life and we hovered off. After a while of staring out the window Mom said "Clove, don't look out the window any more because you will see where we are going" I said "Ok Mom, why don't I open my present then I won't be tempted to look out the window" Mom agreed with me so I opened the envelope slowly and felt a sheet of paper inside, I held it by the edge and gently tugged, two things fell out, a wrapped package and a sheet of paper.
Mom said "Clove, look at the paper first" I turned over the sheet and I was so amazed my eyes nearly fell out of my skull!
AN: What is it? Come on Clove, Tell us?
