The Surprise Birthday That No One Expected
All I wanted for my 80th birthday was to see my daughter, so I decided to drive over to her house and surprise her. When she opened the door, she looked uneasy. “Dad, why are you here?” she asked, clearly caught off guard. “I just wanted to spend my birthday with you,” I said, smiling. But her response wasn’t what I expected. “Dad, you can’t stay,” she replied. “I’m really busy right now.” Feeling a bit hurt, I offered to just sit on the couch until she had some time.
