Plan's P.O.V

I was awakened by the loud knock of my door.

What day is it?

Ah.



My birthday.



I stretched out my limbs before sauntering towards the door. Yawning, I sluggishly open the door.

What do they want?

"You know what it's too ear--"

"P'Plan!! Help me! Mom just passed out and I literally don't know what to do! I just saw some ..b-blood and..a-and .."

Oh shoot.

No.


Not my mom.

Please.

"Can you please calm down for a bit? Breathe in and out. Remember you're a medical student and being rattled will only worsen the situation. P...prim p-please."

Prim managed to loosen up and immediately grabbed my hand as we head towards the kitchen.

Hair ruffled, messy shirt, morning gound, bare feet.

But who cares?

My family is at stake.


"Prim did you call Pa already? An ambulance? What are you---"

I was cut off when the sound of poppers  echoed throughout the house.

They remembered.

I was perplexed.

To think that stupefied is an understatement.

"Happy birthday to our dearest son!"

"We're sorry for causing you distress and sadness."

"Eh~ cat got you tongue P? Hehe. Happiest birthday brother! Sorry for ignoring you. It's a surprise! Hehe. Please don't get mad, na?"

Tears starts welling up.

"Oh my goodness. We're sorry son."

"Never knew that P'Plan is such a crybaby."

"Silly. I'm not crying.."

"Then what do you call that?"

"My eyes are perspiring."


I heaved a happy sigh as my parents enclosed me into a tight hug.

Best birthday ever.


Mean's P.O.V

I'm freaking late.

Well..


Not that I care actually.

As I've head towards our building, I was met by an eye-blinding smile of Plan.

"belle." (Beautiful)

It was the first time that I've saw that bright and carefree smile.

Too..


enchanting..

"Yo Plan. I...I'm sorry f-for ignoring y..you."

"Nah, it's okay Best. Twas my fault too."

"Today's your b-birthday right? I'll com..compensate you with free lunch."

"I mean you don't have--"

"I insist."

He flashed another eye-blinding smile as they've headed towards their own room.

Wait.



It's his birthday.

What should I give him?

I was cut off in my trance when I felt my cellphone vibrated.

"Oh, fuck."

Did I just..
