*Your pov.*

It's early Wednesday morning. The smell of freshly baked pancakes fills my nostrils as the alarm clock goes off. Tiresome I stretch my arm and switch off the buzzer. Shortly after I let out an exhausted sigh and lay back on the bed as all of a sudden someone slams the door open.

»Good morning, sunshine!«, I hear the surprisingly good-tempered voice of my mom greet me.

Instantly I pull the pillow over my ears and turn my body to the other side facing the wall. I'm not a morning person as you can tell.

»Com'on sweetie, you have to go to school«, she says while pulling away the warm blanket from my body.

Unwillingly I sit up on the bed. Still very tired and unenthusiastically I look at my mom. I catch sight of a full plate with pancakes in her hands. On top of the delicious looking breakfast are some candles which make me frown and think hard. Oh my god...

»Happy birthday, Y/N!«, my mom shouts happily.

...I almost forgot my birthday. Totally overwhelmed I stare at her for a second. She hands me the plate and kisses my forehead. Speechless I look at the pancakes.

»Th-thanks, mom«, I stutter slowly accepting the fact that I didn't remember my birthday.

»Are you okay, honey?«, she wonders worried.

I raise my head to be at eye level with her and smile. Then I wrap my arms around her body and hug her very tight.

»I love you, mom«, I whisper joyfully.

»I love you too, sweetie«, she replies while freeing herself from my grip,»But now you really have to get ready! I have another surprise for you.«

Excited I climb out of my bed and make my way to my closet. My mom leaves the room and I start to pick out some casual clothes for today. I try them on and take a look in the mirror.

»Today is your day, Y/N«, I tell myself grinning.

Quickly I walk to the bathroom and wash my face. Only seconds later I'm finished and ready to go.

»Wait, honey!«, my mom stops me from leaving the house,»I have to show you something.«

Confused I follow her outside. We walk down the porch to a brand-new bike standing in the middle of our lawn.

»Surprise!«, my mom shouts cheerfully.

I examine the bike for a moment and furrow my eyebrows. Then I realize that this is supposed to be my special gift.

»Wow, I..I don't know what to say«, I stutter nervously and try to sound very happy.

»I'm glad you like it! Your dad and I thought you could need one. I mean you'd be able to drive around the city and go to school with it«, she explains and I nod agreeing.

She's right and the bike seems very modern and new. But I didn't expect that kind of present. However, I'm just grateful to have such amazing parents who truly care about me.

»It's pretty cool!«, I tell her sitting on the bicycle saddle,»I have to go now. Thanks again!«

My mom gives me one more kiss on the forehead before I drive away. She waves her hand and only minutes later I turn right into a corner heading straight to school. But just a few minutes later I want to drive past a crossbreed as all of a sudden a big black SUV hits me. I fall off the bike onto the cold hard ground and without any furthermore darkness surrounds me.

»Hey...hey...«, I hear someone say, »Hey! Can you hear me?«

Lost I listen to the sound of the voice and try to understand what's happening. As I want to open my eyes my eyelids feel very heavy.
