The Blank Tape

                Excited and Happy, this was the emotion that Bryan felt when he knew that he together with his family, will be attending the birthday party of one of his cousin. The party will be on Sunday but Bryan and his family went to the house of his cousin one day before the party, that’s why his cousins were very happy to see Bryan.

            One Saturday afternoon, Bryan and his cousins went to their favourite place to play and to pick some small stones. Because of tiredness, they decided to go back to the house and to take a rest. While they were walking, Bryan remembered something, “hey guys! Do you still remember the blank cassette tape that we hide long time ago? “Yes!” his cousins replied. “Hmmn, I have an idea, what if we will use that cassette tape and record the sounds that the cassette recorder will hear while we are all sleeps? What do you think?” then his cousins agree with him.

            8 o’clock in the evening, when everyone is busy preparing for the foods, Bryan and his cousins were busy also looking for the blank cassette tape, since it’s been 4 months ago since they hid that tape, they find it too difficult to look for that tape, so they ask help to one of their uncle. One hour later, Bryan’s aunt, called already their names to have their dinner, and because it is already a tradition to them that whenever they have their dinner, someone, among the group should lead for the prayer. And fortunately, it’s Bryan turn.

            After the dinner, Bryan and his cousins continued to look for the blank cassette tape, and finally, Bryan already found the tape. So, they clean it and they borrowed the cassette recorder to their aunt. Before they sleep, because it’s been a long time for them to see each other again, Bryan and his five cousins were still chatting and sharing their experiences while they are away from each other. “It’s already 12 in the midnight, I think we should take our rest because we will be busy helping our parents for the birthday party tomorrow” said Jasmine, one of the cousin of Bryan. “Yeah, you’re right” Bryan replied. Before they sleep, Bryan almost forgot to put the tape in the cassette recorder and he press the play and record button, then he sleep.
