" We can decorate her room but while we do that we need someone to distract her and perhaps make her stay away from this house." Adrien said already excited for Lucy's birthday.
"I can take her for a small treat and we can go to the park. This can keep her well distracted!" Maria exclaimed.
"Good idea Maria but make sure you keep her distracted for at least an hour or to but don't speak a word about her or anyone else's birthday and don't forget about what I said earlier." Tracy said and whispered the last part to Maria in her ears sending shivers down her spine.
Time Skip to the next day:-Adrien and Oliver along with both the girls discussed about Lucy's birthday and they both sneakily went home while Maria slept on the couch groaning and tossing around. It was already 5 in the morning and Maria was squinting her eyes and tossing around on the couch. After some time of tossing and being uncomfortably sleeping, she opened her eyes and immediately had a feeling of something bad happening to her. She was too tired to even react so she fell and groaned loudly when her restless body hit the rock-hard and cold floor. "Ughhhh! Why am I the unluckiest one?!"Maria said and groaned while rubbing her now swollen butt.
"You are unlucky because of your own deeds" Tracy said coming out of the blue yawning.
"Geez you just gave me a mini- no a huge heart attack!" Maria said panting with wide eyes."Hmmm.......Admit it, Karma sure hits. Anyways we have to prepare for her birthday too and also can you please wake her up and you also freshen up and then come for breakfast." Tracy said and wore her apron.
"Good morning Tracy and Maria!" Lucy chirped
"Good morning to you both too." Tracy said."What is for breakfast today?" Tracy and Maria asked in a choir.
"I made some Bulgogi Bibimbap! I know you both like it." Tracy chirped. While Lucy started eating with her face down, Tracy's eye signaled Maria to follow the plan. Lucy was a careless person and she would never remember her birthday but there was also a very sad story behind it. She was not always like that and used to eagerly wait for her birthday but now, every year when her birthday came, she would try to ignore it deliberately. Every time her friends knew that she was giving excuses and wanted to know the truth but today Lucy decided to open up about her little childhood trauma."Why do you look upset Lucy?" Tracy asked noticing her sad face. Maria jolted her head upwards with a carrot hanging from her mouth. Lucy's mood lightened as she giggled seeing her friend's silly behaviour.
"Yuh, Luly whe aye ye sud" Maria asked innocently with the carrot still hanging from her mouth.
"Maria....ahhhhahahah............pls.......eat the ....ca...rrot-ahhah-a" Tracy said while Lucy laughed.
Time skip to when Maria and Lucy are in the park:-"It's been such a long time since I visited this place." Lucy said and Maria nodded in agreement as she smiled.
"Lucy! Oliver and you dear boyfie are joining us." Maria said wiggling her eyebrows weirdly at the last sentence.
"I know who is my boyfriend but yours is also coming" Lucy said. That is, it was a backfire. Maria started blushing which was visible because of her pale skin.
" We are here!" Jayson shouted and waved his hands while running towards them with a smile decorated on their faces.Time skip to after 2-3 hours:-
"Ugh I am so tired but it was fun today" Lucy said as she threw herself on the bench.
"Let's go home......." Maria said with a tired face.
"Ok guys then I am calling a cab" Oliver said.
Time skip to after half an hour when they reached home:-"Why are the lights off?" Lucy asked being a little scared. Others acted to be scared and Oliver and Maria went inside.
"Help!" Maria and Oliver shouted. There was a wicked laugh in the background. Now Lucy became more scared and started shivering in fear. Next, Jayson went inside and after 2 minutes nothing was heard so Lucy gathered some courage and started walking inside. She called out their names but no response came and only negative thoughts did. Suddenly all the lights turned on and everyone shouted "Happy birthday to you. Happy birthday to you. Happy birthday to our dear Lucy, Happy birthday to you!" Tracy lit a candle which was in the shape of 21 and brought it closer to her mouth.
"Make a wish and blow the candle dear!" Tracy said. All along Lucy had tears in her eyes, the happy tears.
"Thank you everyone!" Lucy said. me skip to after the celebration:-"Everyone, I wanted to say something..........."
