The next day was Ishan's birthday, and after he refreshed, he made his way outside his room to find Veera already in his kitchen, preparing breakfast with a mischievous grin on her face. He slowly made his way to the kitchen before wrapping his arms around her waist from behind startling her.  

"Happy birthday, sleepyhead!" she muttered, before turning to face him as she wrapped her hands around his neck making him smile.

"Thank you, Veera," He answered softly before placing a soft kiss on her lips. She then handed him a plate piled high with pancakes adorned with a single candle flickering atop.

"Wow, pancakes for breakfast? You really went all out," he chuckled, blowing out the candle before digging into the delicious breakfast she had prepared. 

Veera leaned against the kitchen counter, watching him eat with a contented expression. "Well, it's not every day your boyfriend turns another year older," she teased lightly, earning a playful eye roll from Ishan.

After breakfast, Veera led Ishan on a birthday adventure around the city, taking him to all his favorite spots and surprising him with little gifts and treats along the way. They wandered through the bustling streets, hand in hand, sharing stories and laughter as they enjoyed each other's company.

As Veera and Ishan made their way back to his house after their adventurous day in the city, they were both still buzzing with excitement from their first official date. Ishan couldn't stop smiling, feeling grateful for Veera's thoughtfulness and the wonderful day they had shared together.

As they approached Ishan's doorstep, he noticed something unusual through the window. The lights were on, and he could see shadows moving inside. Veera caught his puzzled expression and squeezed his hand reassuringly.

"What's going on?" Ishan asked, curiosity piqued. Veera just grinned mischievously, giving nothing away. "Guess we'll have to find out."

Opening the door, they were greeted with cheers and shouts of "Surprise!" from inside. Ishan's jaw dropped in shock as he took in the sight before him. Shubman, Virat, Hardik, Shreyas, Siraj, and several others from the cricket team were all there, gathered in his living room, decked out with balloons, streamers, and a big banner that read, "Happy Birthday, Ishan!"

Ishan was speechless, overwhelmed by the unexpected gesture. Veera squeezed his hand again, her eyes twinkling with excitement. "Happy Birthday, Ishan!" she exclaimed, her voice bubbling with joy.

The room erupted into laughter and applause as Ishan stepped inside, still trying to process everything. Shubman stepped forward, a wide grin on his face. "We wanted to surprise you, mate! Happy birthday!" he said, clapping Ishan on the back.

Ishan grinned from ear to ear, feeling incredibly touched by the effort his friends had put into organizing the surprise party. "I can't believe you guys did all this," he said, his voice choked with emotion. Virat stepped forward, holding out a wrapped present. "Well, you deserve it, Ishan. You're an important part of this team, and we wanted to make sure you had a birthday to remember," he said warmly.

Ishan accepted the gift, feeling a lump form in his throat. He couldn't believe how lucky he was to have such amazing friends and teammates. Turning to Veera, he pulled her into a tight hug, feeling overwhelmed with gratitude.
