Love Unfolding 58 Birthday

After a day, Mei has bid her farewell to Erika for the reason of her father summoning her as an alibi. She did not anymore gave face to the girls either.

And with Andy, she just sent a farewell text message. She can't bear to say it personally and she already decided to quench the fire in her heart. Seeing Andy would surely not help.

"Hey Donna, when will Andy be coming back?" Rina asked one afternoon after their cla.s.ses.

Andy has been absent for three days. Her family went for a trip out of the country.

"I think she's back now. I'm not sure though."

"She sure is reckless going on a vacation when exam is right in the corner." Rina said.

"Yeah, but her G.o.dfather summoned her though." Donna explained.

"He's the one who planned to celebrate Andy's birthday in his place."

"What birthday?" Rina curiously asked.

Donna suddenly realized something and bit her lip.

"You didn't know?"

"Yesterday was Andy's birthday."

Rina shook her head. Then both turned their look at Erika.

'Shoot'

Erika didn't say a word but was showing a really grimaced expression.

Andy got out from the shower, put on her oversized tee and dried her hair. She checked her phone and found a message from Erika.

'Where are you now?'

She smilingly replied immediately. She then went to the kitchen and brewed some coffee.

After awhile the doorbell rung. She checked it and found Erika. She rashly opened the door and was surprised to see the girl carrying a mini chocolate cake and some canned beers.

And she was more than curious seeing the grimaced, angry, disappointed expression written all over the the girl's face.

Without invitation, Erika let herself in.

"Why you didn't tell me your birthday?"

"Sorry, you didn't ask." Andy answered apologetically.

Erika inhaled then exhaled as though exhaling her wrath.

"I'm here to celebrate it with you…even if it's late."

Andy smiled. She wanted to hug Erika right there but refrain herself.

"Thank you."

Erika sneered. "Do you have something to lit up the candle?"

Andy nodded then went to the kitchen to get it. Erika by then, dimmed the lights around the house.

"You hold the cake." Erika commanded as she light up the candle.

Smiling, Andy did so.

"Won't you sing me a birthday song?"

Erika shot her a glare. "Can't you wait?" Then she sat by the piano tapping the chair gesturing Andy to sit with her.

The brushing of their arms brought shiver down their spine.

Erika smiled as she started pressing the keys.

[Happy birthday to you

Happy birthday to you

Happy birthday

Happy birthday

Happy birthday to you]

She sung it with a slower tempo complimenting the mood around.

It gave Andy joy listening as her heartbeat thump.

"Make a wish." Erika commanded.

Andy did and smiled as soon as she opened her eyes.

'Be mine.'

"Blow it already." Erika commanded again and Andy did so.

"Thank you." She smiled.

And looking directly into Erika's eyes reflected by the lights, oh just how much she wanted to kiss the girl right there as everything seemed to feel right. Like it was the moment she'd been talking about with Donna; the right and perfect one.
