I saw how Sanji fought with the guys who insulted me. He fought bravely but for every punch he threw six returned. His face is now pretty beat up. But he is still standing. I was screaming! Stop! Then I felt someone shaking me. I opened my eyes and it was just my mother.

"Wake up! You will be late for work, she said.

It has been 3 months since I first met Sanji, I felt a tear drop from my left eye. Thank God it was just a dream.
The cold southern monsoon has affected everyone. Everyday everywhere I looked I see people wearing jackets and sweat shirts against the cold weather. I didn't really feel like going to work, but I have to because I volunteered to take the restday overtime.

I slowly wormed myself out of bed to get up. My nephew is already sleeping and his mother, my elder sister has already gone off to work. I went out of my room only to see my younger sister doing her homework on the center table at our living room, I looked at the kitchen table and I saw my packed lunch. I looked at my phone and saw twelve unread messages.

I lazily went to take a sit and ate my dinner. I sliced and ate a piece of cake just to satisfy my craving. I am not sure if I am going to enjoy this day or not, it has always been this way for years, November 1st, All Souls Day a day to remember the dead, my father. The same day I was born.

Happy Birthday Perv, smile up dummy it's your birthday! Sanji texted I couldn't help but blush.

I shook my head to change my mood, maybe a cold bath will change my mood. So I grabbed a towel and went to the bathroom to take a bath. I thought about work, yes going to work should make a bit of difference from the past.

I wore a black bra, a black midrib, a white tanktop and my white hoodie jacket. I wore my skinny jeans., two socks on each foot and my pink Adidas shoes which Louie gave me as a birthday gift. I wore my silver necklace with my name "Violet" carved on it. which Drey gave me

Today I received a lot of gifts a Converse jacket from my uncle, the pair of Adidas shoes from Louie, the bastard who broke my heart. A necklace from Drey. A backpack from Louie. And a box of chocolates from no one else but Louie. Who does he think he is after all he did. The nerve!

I came to work and I saw a piece of paper on my notebook. Its a sketch of a girl wearing dark shades.

Happy Birthday Perv! Check out who's waiting for you at the back of your CPU... Says the short message

I checked and I swear my entire face turned pink. It was a bubble head figure of my favorite cartoon character. It was no other than "Monkey D. Luffy"!

Then I heard a voice whispered at the back of my ear.

"I hope you take good care of him." It was Sanji

"Thank you so much!' I almost hugged him, oh how I wanted to kiss him.

"Let's have breakfast later guys!" He announced

"We have a birthday girl in the house!" He winked at me making me blush.
