I almost forgot about this, but today's Soda's birthday!

HAPPY BIRTHDAY, SODA!!!

Soda's birthday was on October 8, 1948 making him 70 today. (Woah) And here's a short story in honor of his birthday.

(Soda's POV)
I walked home with Steve from work, I was kind of sad. My best friends seemed to have forgotten it was my birthday today. "What's wrong, buddy?" Steve asked, nudging me.

"Nothing," I put my head down and we kept walking.

We walked a few minutes longer and we reached my house. Steve decided we should walk today for some strange reason. "Head in without me, I'll be there in a minute." I nodded and headed to the door, just as I was about to open it I realized Darry was home early, his truck was in the driveway.

I open the door and step inside, it was almost completely dark, and then the lights flipped on and all the gang popped out yelling: "Surprise!" or "Happy birthday!"

Then Steve came in behind me, "Did you think we forgot your birthday?" He handed me a gift and I opened it. Inside was one of the cars that we use to play with all the time when we were in grade school. It was an little beat up truck that was Steve's favorite car.

"Thanks, buddy!" I gave him a huge hug, remembering the days spent sitting on the porch of this house playing with it.
