Serene's POV

Today is my Birthday and I'm very excited because it's my day duh

Anyway Highway papasok na kami ni Steve after they greeted me a happy birthday and our mini celebration

*school*

I walk towards Laurence happily and excitedly

"Hi Rence Good morning!"

"Hmm morning Valiant"
Yun na yon? Hindi man lang bumati?
Nakalimutan kaya nya? Pero sinabi ko na last week pa na birthday ko na ngayon

"Rence What is the date today?"

"Huh? May 14 why?

"You don't remember something? "

"Nothing bakit ano bang meron?" he confusedly asked
What the!

"W-wala naman hehe Tara pasok na tayo"

"Sorry Valiant hindi kita mahahatid sa room nyo may gagawin pa kasi ako eh"

"Oh it's okay Rence, I'll just see you later" tss nakakainis sya
How dare him forget my special day? Now my excitement vanished

In our room everyone greeted me a happy birthday, buti pa sila haysst

NANG mag uwian na pumunta na ako sa parking lot then nakasalubong ko pa yung guard and he even greeted me too
See? Everyone knows my birthday but he forgot it?

Walang Laurence akong nadatnan don at sakto namang tumunog ang cellphone ko

*Rence: Valiant I'm sorry nauna na akong umuwi may gagawin pa kasi ako eh

Haysst yeah right what a HAPPY birthday to me
Imbes na special day ko naging worst day naman

When I arrived at our house parang wala na akong kagana gana pa

"Princess why are you sad? It's your birthday so you should be happy"
How can I be happy mom? When my favorite person forgot ny special day

"I'm happy mom I'm just exhausted, I'm going to rest na po"

"Sure, rest well ija"

Nang makapasok ako sa kwarto deretso higa na agad at tumulala sa kawalan
Come on Serene Valiant cheer up atleast nakasama ko sya kanina kahit saglit lang okay na yon
After how many hours sa pagtulala I heard my mom shouting

"Serene someone is calling you outside puntahan mo"

Huh? Sino naman kaya yon eh wala naman akong inaasahan na bisita
Bumaba nalang ako para malaman kung sino

Pagkalabas ko sa gate madilim na pala nasaan na yung naghahanap sakin?
I heard someone is singing behind me kaya humarap ako only to find out that Laurence is the one who is singing a birthday song while holding a gift

Omyholly golly he knows? Akala ko hindi na huhu naiiyak ako not because I'm sad but because I'm so overwhelmed

He handed me the gift that he's holding as he stop singing
"Open it later My Valiant"

" Huh? But I want to open it now "

"Please just open it later pag mag isa ka nalang " nahihiya sya bakit kaya? What's inside this?

"Fine I'll just put this in my room wait me here" patakbo akong pumunta sa kwarto at nilagay sa kama yong regalo nya at nagbihis na din ako ng damit

"Let's go Rence" I said when I got near him

"Where are we going?" takang tanong nya

"We'll just walk and explain to me what you did "

Naglakad lakad lang kami dito sa village namin ng tahimik

" Rence explain it to me now I thought you're busy"

"This is my plan Valiant I'll pretend that I don't know and I'm busy then I will just greet you tonight "

"You know I'm so sad a while ago I thought that you forgot it"

"I'm sorry, I just want to surprise you"

"It's okay nakabawi kana man na"
Bawing bawi na talaga kasi may gift pa sya it's okay to me if he doesn't have a gift naman I am contented to his greeting

Nag kwentuhan lang kami after he explained and then we seat in our favorite spot
Nagulat ako ng bigla nya akong niyakap mula sa likod, I can feel his heartbeat na sumasabay sakin. Our heartbeat becomes our music in this peaceful night with the beautiful moon and stars watching us from above

"I love you Valiant, My Baby"
Babawiin ko na yung sinabi ko kaninang this is the worst day because now, this is the best night and best birthday of my life and I will never forget this

"I love you too Laurence" malambing kong sabi

"I promise to you that I will never leave you and I won't hurt you intentionally. You are the one I only want Valiant so I'll promise that you can only have me"

Hinatid na nya ako sa bahay pagkatapos at nang makapasok ako sa kwarto kinuha ko na ang regalo nya at binuksan

Ang laman ng regalo nya ay pillow na may nakasulat na I love you and there's more may bracelet pa na may initials nya which is E.L.L

Kung ako si Serene noon sigurado akong macocornihan ako but now naiiyak nako sa sobrang tuwa at kilig, this is the best gift I've ever had
