My Brother’s 18th Birthday Party
This was the reason we dropped most of our tasks and came back to my hometown — my brother turned 18!
In Bulgaria, that means he is officially an adult. Time flies so fast — he and my sister (almost 15) are growing up so quickly.
The birthday celebration turned into a lovely family gathering at a restaurant. Part of his mother’s side of the family (we don’t share the same biological parents) was there as well, including relatives from Germany.
We had an absolute blast.
There were drinks, lots of laughter — it was a truly beautiful experience.
I honestly can’t remember the last time I had so much fun. My glass was almost always full of wine — and I loved it! It was a bit noisy, but I still managed to talk with my brother, my sister, my family, and even some of my brother’s friends — who thought I was 10 years younger, which, of course, made me like them even more.
It was such a great night.
At first, some people were a bit surprised that Veni and I left our little boy at home. But since he usually goes to bed around 8:00–8:30 p.m., and the celebration started at 7 p.m., we decided to enjoy the evening as a couple — with good company, drinks, and a bit of freedom.
My sister and I even had a mini photo session in the restaurant bathroom, which turned into a 10-minute laughing session. We don’t see each other very often, so when we do, we just can’t stop talking.
As teenagers, they both have so much going on in their lives — emotions running high — and sometimes they just need someone to help ground them a little.
After the restaurant closed, we went to my brother’s apartment and had a few more drinks. From what I saw and heard, Veni had a great night too — even when we weren’t next to each other, I could hear him laughing.
I’m so happy and grateful we got to share this moment together.
I know this will stay with us as one of those memories we’ll always look back on with a smile.
