It's my birthday &I'll cry if I want to.
Happy belated birthday to me.
9/12 is the mark of the author.
Three days till my birthday.
I can't wait.
"Three days? Happy early birthday then. What do you want?"
What do I want?
"Nothing. I have all I need."
&the girl smiles.
"Okay then."
Two days till my birthday.
It's all so close.
"Come on Kairi, you have to want something!"
I smile.
He cares.
"All I want is your happiness &some money."
His face fell.
"Come on Kairiiiiiii… What do you want?"
I smile wider.
"All I need &could ever need is your happiness."
One day till my birthday.
I'm so excited.
"Hey Kairi, are you having a party?"
I laugh.
"Just a small one at my house."
Riku laughs too.
"How can you have a small party at your huge house?"
&it's here.
-giggle, giggle.-
"Oh Em Gee! I can't believe Tidus asked me out!"
Okay, so maybe I'm a little disappointed at Selphie.
"Yuna was all over him too &she talks a lot to get his attention all the time!"
Selphie couldn't have forgotten my birthday.
"Well Kairi, I gotta go! See you at your party!"
&later.
-UGH-
"I can't believe I failed that test!"
I can't believe Sora forgot too…
"&i studied so hard too!"
Usually he would glomp me &sing in my ear.
"Gah, I hope I can still go to your party, Kairi."
&later still.
I think I might cry soon.
"…"
Wish me happy birthday!
"Well I gotta go now."
There must be something going on.
"See you at your party."
I sigh.
"okay."
&it's party time.
There is a campfire.
There is a trampoline.
&there are people.
"Here'ya go Kairi."
A card.
I was expecting some more from Sora.
Well, oh well.
It was better then Selphie who is –at the moment- too busy talking to her boyfriend on the phone.
"-giggle, giggle- You're so sweet Tidus!"
&with Riku I got the same.
A card.
&the same from everyone else.
But I'm happy.
Most all contained money.
(Minus sora's.)
So I sat alone by the campfire.
&they all leave.
I think I might cry soon.
"Bye Kairi, fun party!"
"Bye Selphie."
"Bye Kairi! See you tomorrow!"
"Bye Sora."
"See you later."
"Bye Riku."
Eventually everyone left but Orette.
&for some reason…
I didn't want to cry.
"You know what Kairi?"
"what?"
"Happy birthday."
&I smiled.
