Today was Hellen's sixteenth birthday and she was feeling sorry for herself because everyone seemed to have forgotten! There were no presents, and not one single person had said 'happy birthday' to her, not even her parents!
She stood in front of the mirror, brushing out her dark brown hair until it shined before pulling it back in a pony tail.
"Hurry up, Hellen! They really need our help today!" Her mother had hollard up the stairs.
The 'they' her mother was talking about was her aunt, uncle and cousin. They owned the campground affectionately named Beneath the Stars. Hellen loved being outdoors and she would volunteer to help out at the campground during summer vacation -though her aunt and uncle would often insist on paying her something.
"Alright, alright!" she hallored back. She wasn't in a very good mood, having everyone forget your birthday would do that. Today she would much rather stay home and wallow in self pity, but her parents had insisted.
She was wearing a yellow 2-piece swim suit beneath her blue jean skort and yellow halter top. Skort. What an odd name that was for an article of clothing, but it was shorts that when worn looked like a mini skirt so she suposed the name for it fit.
Her mother hallored up again for her to hurry up. "Okay!"
Hellen quickly slipped on her sandals and snapped the 'fanny pack' around her waist -having her money stolen out of her purse one year at the campground had taught her it was best to bring her fanny pack instead. She had what she needed stored inside, money, keys, license, etc and of course a hair brush and her favorite strawberry flavored lipgloss.
Dark blue eyes examined her reflection for any signs that she was a year older. Turning sixteen was suppose to be a monumental event so that she had just assumed it would 'show'. But it didn't. To her sad eyes she didn't look any different than she had last year. It was the beginning of summer vacation but Hellen already had a tan. She was 5' 7", taller than most of her female friends. She had long sexy legs, flat tummy, her hips were wide though and though no one else complained about her butt, she always thought it was too big. Her breasts were not large enough for a d-cup, but they were big enough to catch immediate male attention, especially when she was wearing a bathing suit. At the moment she was wearing her yellow 2-piece beneath her blue jean shorts and yellow halter top. She was hoping that she'd be able to go for a swim on her break.
Hellen was very quiet in the car. She didn't say not one word during the entire ride (which wasn't that long) to the campground. Until she saw the large banner at the entrance way of the campground which in huge colorful letters said HAPPY SWEET 16 HELLEN!!
She actually squealed in surprise and delight, and she hated that girly sound! But she'd done it! Hellen got out of the car as soon as her mother placed it in park, and literally ran towards the crowd of familiar faces. Her father, friends, aunts, uncles and cousins.. they were all there smiling at her. They'd hallored "Surprise" as she ran up, and she couldn't stop herself from hugging each one of them! There was even music. And a cake with candles, and presents.. they hadn't forgotten her birthday after all!
Standing next to her favorite cousin, who at 17 was only a year older than her, she smiled and said "I thought everyone forgot." Her cousin went to the same high school, lived in the same neighborhood, his parents house was on the same block, just a few houses down from hers.
