Happy Birthday Athena Persuasive Speech

Refusing to be cheated out of my seventeen wishes I counted the candles exactly thirty-seven times to make sure the bakery had gotten it right. Seventeen ruby candles were mounted atop a round red velvet cake with vanilla icing covering it. 'Happy Birthday Athena ' was written in a scarlet colour with the finest attached writing I had ever seen on a cake. Red velvet had always been my favourite despite it only being chocolate cake with food colouring. My brother Jamal told me that red velvet cake was the second biggest food scam of the world, right after astronaut ice cream.

A minuscule life changing knowledge: Astronauts do not eat space ice cream and never have, however they have space pudding.

My living room was transformed like a special

Dad actually gave this to me when I was about fifteen, I 'm pretty upset they never got to continue the series, actually there 's only comic, it 's kind of silly I 've been holding onto it all these years when I 've been meaning to give it to you, you should definitely give it a read, it 's a true collector 's item and it 's an extraordinary story that I don 't think has ended yet, " After Jamal 's array of stutters and awkward pauses he passed me a comic book sealed in a fresh plastic wrap.

My dad died a few weeks after Bianca was born, I remember very little about him. Aphrodite got his records, he left me all his books and Jamal inherited his comic book collection. Every year Jamal would give me newly bought comics for my birthday, I didn 't even read all of them but I kept them but this felt a lot different.

"Thank you, Jamal, it means a lot" I smiled up at him.

"No problem, I 'll uh leave you to it then, good night," He scratched the back of his head and left my room carefully closing the door.

In the plastic seal along with the comic, a blue crystal necklace glistened and it was nothing like I had seen before. I took off the tape the silver chain was hanging from and placed it around my neck and held the crystal between my fingers, admiring every millimetre of its beauty

I ran my fingers over the title of the comic, it was written in a thick marker font in light blue. Zedorah
