"Shut up! Stop ringing!" I groaned as my phone rang and vibrated on my bedside table.

I tried to use the pillow and cover my ears but my phone was ringing really loud so that didn't help.

After rolling my eyes I grabbed the phone, ready to answer it and tell the person on the other end off for waking me up so early.

But when I checked the caller ID the annoyed feeling I had disappeared completely.

"Goodmorning beautiful, Happy birthday." Yoongi said from the other end.

I sat up on my bed and smiled. I looked a mess since I'd just woken up but I had a reason to smile.

"Thank you!" I blushed.

"Did I wake you? You sound sleepy."

"Actually you did but it's fine. You're so sweet."

"Your welcome. I'm sorry I called so early but I'll be busy later in the day. I'll call you tonight though."

"Okay no problem. Thanks again Yoongi. Have a great day and please eat something.

I heard him exhale heavily as if smiling widely.

"I will. Take care of yourself for me."

"I will."

I hung up and tossed my phone on my rug and went back to sleep. It was exactly twelve am. I went to bed three hours earlier and I needed my sleep because the day ahead would be a busy one.

I woke up at 5am yawning like a hungry lion. My hair a mess and my arms ached from my bad sleeping positions.

I slowly sat up and slid from my bed. I felt really lazy. I was still half asleep and just collapsed on the soft silky rug. I just laid there running my hands through it.

I was about to fall asleep again when my phone began ringing loudly again. I slowly opened my eyes and reached for it.

My mom was calling so I answered.

"Happy birthday!" She shouted.

"Thanks mom!" I replied as I rolled over on the mat.

"Are you working today?"

"Yeah. Unfortunately I am. I work six and a half days. Today is no exception." I told her.

"I see." She sighed.

"Don't work too much. If you were here I'd bake you a cake and we go out to celebrate."

"I know mom. Don't worry too much. I'll enjoy myself for us both." I smiled.

"Yes do that."

"I have to go now customers are flooding in. Mom love you. Have fun."

"Love you too mom." I replied ending the call.

It was already 9AM. Knowing I would be late if I didn't hurry to get ready for work.

  I read and replied to my birthday wishes one at a time on my way to work. As I walked pass Yoongi's studio I couldn't help but smile. I felt excitement. I didn't have plans for my birthday since I would be working all day but I did expect gifts. I loved gifts and enjoyed receiving them. Since childhood I'd enjoyed the thrill of unwrapping gifts to see what was for me.

  The day at work was the usual until lunch time. I spotted Daeun eating Korean BBQ Chicken Wings (Tong Dak)  by the window in the lunchroom. She had her earbuds in and was nodding to the music she was listening to as she ate.
