Hey everyone this is a super short story with Alseya yay. Just meant to be short and sweet, with a dark tone at the end oops :D Please feel free to review.
As Alseya entered the bunker she was greeted with silence and a brown sign that was hung with white string between two archways. She gasped as she read the message that had been carefully drawn with pink gel, the glitter twinkled resembling the sparkle in her own, now seven year old eyes.
"Happy seventh Alseya," everyone jumped up from behind the couch.
Alseya rushed over and began to hastily hug everyone.
"You guys are the best," she announced as she bounced on the spot.
"Sorry we couldn't afford more decorations Alseya. The sign is homemade as you can tell,' Celeste sighed thinking how sexist the pink colour was but she knew that is was actually Alseya's favourite colour, so it was cool.
"I understand why though. Credit card scams are too risky and we need them for important stuff,' Alseya reassured Celeste with a maturity that surpassed her seven years of living.
"Exactly. Like your presents," Gabriel grinned as he scooped Alseya up and carried her through to the kitchen were fairy cakes were waiting for her.
"This is going to be the best birthday ever," Alseya giggled as she started to devour a cake, licking the thick, creamy pink icing.
The room burst into joyous laughter as some of the icing stuck to her nose. They all knew these rare moments had to be cherished, tomorrow it would be back to business. But for today they were going to celebrate that not only was one of their family members a whole year older. But also to celebrate that she was still alive to enjoy this momentous occasion…Because in this line of work the road that appeared so long could be quickly cut short.
