Chapter 39 Part 4 *Cloud 9*
~Sophia
“Happy birthday to you.”
What?
“Happy birthday to you.”
Where are they?
“Happy birthday happy birthday."
Oh my God.
"Happy birthday Sophia.”
They continue to sing while I stand, my feet planted on the ground, as something moves from my peripheral vision.
A surprise sound comes out of my mouth when Driana walks to where I am.
“Happy birthday Sophia," she says, giving me a hug.
“T-th-thanks," I stutter.
"You really thought I forgot your birthday?" she asks incredulously. "I'm not a horrible best friend!"
I smile sheepishly because that possibility came to my mind. "What is happening?"
She playfully zips her lips and throws the key away.
“Driana," I say.
The hidden people continue to sing a happy birthday while I pressure Driana to tell me what’s going on.
She shakes her head and bites her lip to stop the smile forming on her mouth.
Andre comes next. “Happy birthday Sophia," he says, giving me a hug as well.
“Andre?” I say, hugging him back.
He grins. “I wish you a happy birthday!”
“Thank you," I murmur.
Like Driana, I know Andre won’t tell me so I just wait and keep my mouth shut. I’m not the type of person that will just stand while the people around her moves. The suspense is killing me! I’m so curious, I want to know everything!
The next person to come out of the shadow is Aunt V. I’m surprised to see her because I thought it’s just Driana, Andre, and Draky. I can’t imagine Aunt V agreed to do this.
“Happy birthday Sophia," she says, kissing me on the cheek.
“Thanks Auntie," I say gratefully.
I’m about to just go to where they’re coming from when Andre grabs my arm and shakes his head at me.
“A little impatient, are we?” he asks.
I frown and give him a pleading look. "Please?"
“Sorry, you have to wait here.” I can see that he is enjoying this.
The next people to walk towards me are unexpected. Very unexpected.
"Parker?" I ask, surprised. "Chloe? What are you doing here?"
He grins, liking my facial expression. "I'm here to greet you a happy birthday!"
"I-"
"Since I didn't send you a message earlier," he says amusedly.
They walk to where I am and then Parker puts his arms around me. "I'm not stupid to forget your birthday," he says.
I put my arms around him as well, and say, "Thank you," many times.
