Oct. 3rd, 2021 06:14 pm“Did I hear you right?” Daria Morgendorffer asked her friend Jane Lane as they arrived at school. “You're having a party?”
“That's right.”
“Why?”
“Sweet Sixteen, Daria! I can't believe you don't know when my birthday is.”
“I know when your birthday is. I didn't think you'd be celebrating it with a party.”
“That's because I never had one before.”
“Never had one?”
“My parents were either never home when I had my birthday, or when they were, didn't come up with the idea for the party.”
“I see.”
“So, are you coming?”
Daria resigned herself to the inevitable. “Yes,” she said in her usual tone.
“Cool,” Jane said.
( As the day progressed... )
“That's right.”
