The week passed by very quickly and it was Saturday. It was 8 o' clock in the morning and Becky was still sleeping. Linda barged into Becky's room with panic all over her face. Linda ran to the curtains and opened them.

Becky felt the the sun shine on her face. She groaned turning to the other side. Seeing this,Linda rolled her eyes and knocked on the door to make noise. Becky groaned again covering her head with the blanket.

Linda became annoyed and pulled the blanket away from Becky making Becky groan for the 3rd time. It felt like the 1735383636th time for Linda.

"Rebecca Anne Lynch! Wake up this freaking instant!" Linda yelled with so much anger that it made Becky stand up in one second.

What did i do? I didn't do anything! Or did I? Wait! No! I didn't do anything! Becky's thoughts were all over the place.

"On Friday, it is your father's birthday. We need to plan his birthday party this year without him knowing!" Linda spat.

Becky's face was filled with confusion. "You woke me up just to tell me about Dad's birthday?"

Linda rolled her eyes.

Becky chuckled. "I know it's gonna be Dad's birthday soon. Why didn't you just tell me when-"

"We cannot risk him finding out again! We are going to make this year his best birthday ever!"

Last year,Becky and Linda planned Mark's birthday party and everything was going smoothly- until he found out of course. Becky really didn't care and she was just happy to see that her father was happy.

But Linda on the other hand was upset.  She started overthinking things and she made a vow to herself that this year, he wouldn't find out again.

Growing up,Linda had 3 other siblings and was the middle child. She was- and still is very competitive. Whatever her siblings did, she wanted to do better to impress her parents. And of course she always did.

"Dad said that he didn't mind. Even if he finds out, it will be fi-"

Becky couldn't finish speaking because Linda glared at her with a glare that could kill. And if it could really kill,she woudl be dead already now.

"Bex, we are planning his birthday party right here right now."

Becky nodded. "Wait. Where is Dad by the way?"

Linda grinned with a proud look on her face. "I payed his friends to take him out the whole day. That gives us enough time to plan the party."

"Okay. But first, can I brush my teeth? It feels weird talking knowing I haven't brushed my teeth yet."

"One minute and 50 seconds." Linda said simply but deadly.

Becky ran to the bathroom and started brushing her teeth. Once she was done, she returned to her room to see Linda sitiing on the bed.

"Okay." Becky said grabbing Linda's attention. "Let's do this."

Linda loved Mark with all her heart. And she knew that he loved her as much. She wanted this birthday party to be special for the man she loves of course.

In the middle of them talking, Linda paused.

"But wait." Becky looked at her. "We obviously are going to need help if we want this party to work."

Becky smirked. "I think I know some people who can help us."
