Once it was time for gifts, everyone gave Beth their gifts one after another. There were more than enough gifts flying from one corner of the room to another. But Elizabeth wasn't satisfied with anything she had received. Just like her previous birthdays every year, she always anticipated Noah's gifts the most because her big brother always knows what she wants.
But even she could tell this year was different. Noah has been different and distant since she arrived. He hasn't spoken to her or argued with her. Elizabeth felt like a lost child at some point.
Everything she's done till this very moment was to seek attention. She loved the attention of everyone on her and now, she has lost everything. One stupid decision has made her lose everything she thought she had.
