"It was supposed to be a secret, but it seemed like everyone knew it." I told my mom as she put the dinner plates on the table. She had just arrived from work and I was already complaining because the surprise party I was preparing for my sisters had been a fiasco, since it seemed that information had leaked and my sisters already knew everything. My mother was the main suspect and having betrayed my secret, since I basically just told my plans to her and my school friends.
I was very upset, because I had tried so hard to surprise my sisters and I was very sad about the situation. My mom said she hadn't told them anything, which made me sad and confused.
I didn't know if I should continue with the preparations for the party, but I decided to continue, because my sisters deserve it, even if this is no longer a surprise.
After several days of being upset, I found out that my sisters had heard me on the phone inviting my friends to the party and that's how they found out.
Although the surprise was a failure, the party was a success and my sisters were very happy and so was I. In the end that's what matters to me.
