[ Three days later ]

[ Nara's POV ]

"Hello?.. Yes is the cake ready?" "Yes ma'am it'll be delivered in about two hours." The man on the phone replied.

"Well then try to make it quick.. thanks bye." And I ended the call.

It was Minseo's birthday today and I had to give her something. I mean she is my best friend. I wasn't planning on apologizing about the mall incident any soon. I could do it after the birthday maybe. 

She''ll definitely understand. 

Minseo hated surprises, but I wanted to do at least something to see a smile on her face. Finishing my final make up touch, I sighed satisfied with my look and walked out of the room to take care of the arrangements.

[ Minseo's POV ]

The water flowed, birds sang, clouds floated, the sound of swings caught my ear. I snapped my head to the source of the noise and saw two kids on a swing, with a single mother pushing both of them. 

They giggled innocently, I smiled internally. They looked so happy, the admiring smile on the mother's face as she watched her sons play. 

Damn. Childhood days really were innocent and happy, including no overthinking, no worries, just the happiness in everything. Everything. 

My phone rang right in time. Feeling bored anyway, I pulled my phone out of the pocket and checked the caller ID. It was dad. 

I growled in annoyance, as quietly as possible to not scare the kids rolling balls within each other next to me. I swiped the call button and placed the phone in my ear.

"What?"

"Minseo! How are you doing, honey? We've missed you so much!" My dad said and I could feel his smile widening. "We want to see you so badly, dear." I heard a faint giggle in the call when my dad said that, and realized they were playing with me. 

"Well, I don't want to-" 

"We heard some boy called Jun Myeon is your roommate. I heard his parents took you in." They said, to which I was rather not very surprised.

"Wow! You found out finally after so many years! Here's a trophy!" They were about to say something after that, but I hung up in both anger and irritation. 

"I heard his parents took you in," I mocked their tiresome tone, ", Nonsense people." 

Sighing hard, I locked my phone screen and got up, dusting myself and walked away from the park I was in for the past three hours.

My stomach grumbled loudly and I could feel the way it twisted in a way of showing hunger. I frowned and headed back home. Feeling tired, my eyes turned blurry and I sighed. Why am I tearing up? I hit my head playfully and giggled to myself when a random thought flew into my mind.

It was my birthday today.

Who knows why I imagined that so sadly but I didn't have any energy in my body to smile or think about all the gifts I would get. I knew Nara was somewhere now probably setting up another birthday surprise. I hated surprises. Especially when it came to birthday parties, those friends who pop out of nowhere and say happy birthday.. I didn't like those stuff.

I didn't know why but I was sure my mood was pretty spoiled right now.

When I reached back home, I exhaled a sigh and smiled before stepping into my house. Nothing. There were nobody and no decorations. I turned suspicious.
