"Guys, can you believe that's it has been a whole year since we decided to take care of Fire Gleamer?" I asked in a cheerful tone.
"The lil' fellas grow so fast," Applejack replied as she wiped away what I think was a teardrop. Today was technically Fire Gleamer's birthday because this was the day I discovered her.
"I still can't believe Princess Celestia allowed us to adopt her!" Rainbow Dash exclaimed.
"Um-m, me too," Fluttershy said quietly.
"Auntie Rarity, how old am I today?" Fire Gleamer asked in her usual innocent voice.
"Well, the doctor said that you were most probably two last year so I guess you're now three," she replied. Fire Gleamer looked very proud of herself for becoming older.
"Hey, cousin Sweetie Belle, do you want to play with me?"Fire Gleamer asked.
"You know that I'm not you're actual cousin right? Anyway, I can't. I promised Rarity I would help with decorating. The strange thing though, it's almost like she doesn't wan't me to help. Sorry," Sweetie Belle apologetically said.
I sighed. It was my birthday and today of all days, no one would play with me.Not even Sweetie Belle! But I was so bored, I decided to play outside. It was still sunny even though it was almost dinnertime. Then I saw Diamond Tiara and her friend, Silver Spoon. I learned from experience to steer clear from those two so I ran. Fortunately, I don't think they saw me. Unfortunately, I ran deep into town where I also avoided, unless I was with at least one of my aunties. I avoided town because people just stared only, today they weren't just staring. Today, they were laughing and pointing at me.
I wanted to cry and hide. I never understood why they would treat me so unfairly. Holding my head high I walked as quickly as I could to the safety of Sugarcube Corner. When I went inside, the place was dark and had a sort of eerie feeling. I was about to walk away when......
"Surprise!" everyone shouted. I just stood shocked and in awe.
"Happy Birthday!" Sweetie Belle exclaimed. I don't know why but I suddenly broke down into tears.
"What's the matter?" everyone asked all at once. When I told them that some Ponyville folk looked at me funny there was a lot of awkward silence.
