"Hurry up, O, bring the candles!"

It was 11.30 PM, and Shivaay had just returned home after a long day of work. He was surprised to find the youngsters of the mansion- Rudra, Om, Prinku and Saumya- huddled around the coffee table of their hall room, carrying a few paper bags and what looked like a large box of cake.

"What's up, guys?" Shivaay asked, walking towards them.

"It's Annika didi's birthday tomorrow and we're going to her house to surprise her," Rudra replied nonchalantly as he focused on counting the number of candles before putting them in a bag. Shivaay frowned.

"It's her birthday?" He asked, trying not to show too much interest in his wedding planner's life but failing miserably. "Why didn't you guys tell me?"

"We were supposed to?" Om asked, amused. "Didn't think you would care, actually. Koi fadak nahi padta, remember?"

Shivaay rolled his eyes. He had indeed said that but...it was her birthday, Goddamit!

"Anyway, we should get going," Rudra said, and the four were off, Saumya and Prinku giggling at the look of disappointment on Shivaay's face. He sighed as they left, and made a move to walk towards his room, before stopping. Taking out his car keys, he made a u-turn and walked out of the mansion.

It was her birthday, Goddamit!
