"Good morning guys. Today is July 28th, aka my birthday. Also, today is the day I have to go buy a new car." I rolled my eyes and stood up off the edge of my bed.
"But as we've done for the past three birthdays on this channel, we're going to go and try and guess how many surprises I've already caught on to. I know my mom and brother are coming into town, because my sister is really loud when she's on the phone. I don't know if dad is coming or not."
"I also know that when I open this door and walk downstairs, Emma and the twins are going to be down there because I heard them come in and they aren't the quietest bunch."
I opened the door and the tiny amount of voices coming from downstairs started to shush each other and I couldn't help but laugh.
"Happy birthday!" The group of people yelled as soon as I made an appearance at the bottom of the stairs. My mom, Myles, Emma, Grayson, Ethan, and dad all came up individually and gave me a hug.
"Told you." I said winking at the camera.
"Damn it." Myles said. "She knew we were here."
"You've been trying your entire life to surprise me, it's not going to work. The gesture is appreciated though."
I turned the camera off and laid it on the counter.
"So you really already knew we were coming?" Myles asked, ruffling my hair. I'm the oldest but also somehow managed to be the shortest.
"I told you guys, you're not going to be able to surprise me. I have an eye for these kinds of things."
"Well Miss I have an eye for these things, what do you have planned for today?" Dad asked.
"Well I assume that when you were making plans that Mel told you that I had to go buy a car today, which should take a couple of hours. Which means, I'm guessing a birthday dinner?" I asked raising my eyebrow. They all exchanged glances and I smirked.
"And then you'll send Myles and Melody back in an Uber and well go to some trendy 18+ karaoke or dance club or something along that nature. You'll pay them a odd sum of money at the door to have them bring out a cake and sing happy birthday to me?" They all exchanged glances again.
"I'm telling you, you can't get me." I shrugged and walked back upstairs to get my shoes.
