THE ONE THING THAT MAKE ME FEEL HAPPY ( MY HAPPIEST DAY)
It was almost five years ago when my parents divorced . The day before they divorced was the happiest I had known since then .
Back then , we were living in the vietnam . Our parents worked very hard day in and day out to feed the whole family . Even though my mother was working all the time but she still kept time to bring us out for dinner . My father , he never seemed to enjoy life . He was always working . Even when he was at home from work , he would always make himself busy doing the mowing. One day however , I noticed a change . Our father had taken leave from work for a month to bring us went for holidays . It was a Friday , just a day before Chinese New Year . The weather was fine . Birds sang and leaves fluttered about in the air . Our mother had cooked an interesting deep fried shrimp that thrilled my father . '' We shall have some of that while singing my favourite song tonight , okay ?'' We were happy to see our father so cheerful and actually talking to all of us . He seldom did that and this was the first time he did that .
Night came. Happily , my father helped himself to the fragrant deep fried shrimp . His family scattered about him in the living room as he ate his dinner . Even then , the smiles and happiness had not disappeared or wane a bit . But by then I had to prepare for my lessons the next day and so i left the merry atmosphere of the living room half heartedly .
It had been a very happiest day for me . It had been the first time I had seen my father and my family relax , laugh and enjoy together happily . Although it turn out to be the first time and also the last time family could be together so happily , still , I will never forget that day when I was happiest .
