18. I had a difficult choice to make. I really DIDNʹT KNOW what I should do in a situation like that.
19. The thing was that I HAD BEEN INVITED to two birthday parties on the same day.
20. One birthday girl was my cousin Laura. She was turning eighteen that day and it was a very important event for HER.
21. «It only HAPPENS once in your life,» Laura told me. «You must be at my party.
22. I WONʹT ACCEPT any excuse for your missing it.»
23. The day was very special for my close friend, Monica, too. It was her TWENTIETH birthday which was quite a day as well.
24. «IʹVE ORDERED a huge birthday cake!» she informed me on the phone. «I remember that you donʹt like chocolate cream, so thereʹs only vanilla and fruit filling in it.» The worst thing about the situation was that the girls knew each other quite well. My preference would not remain a secret.
25. I didnʹt want to hurt any of the girls so I worked out a plan. Right before the parties I called both, Laura and Monica. I wished each of them a happy birthday and explained that I WAS FEELING too sick to come to the party.
26. I invented a story about bad flu, coughed and sneezed terribly till I was sure they believed me. It was a pity to miss two wonderful parties in one day but it was the BEST way to avoid a quarrel, wasnʹt it?
