Another chapter up. More coming as I type this.
Rommie found Beka wrapping Trance's gift in the Maru. "Beka, how did you know that it was Trance's birthday?" she asked her, as she continued wrapping the many, small colorful boxes.

"She told me once," Beka said, with a smile as she looked over at the avatar. "Once when she was really drunk, she told me one tiny secret. And that was when her birthday was."

"And you didn't tell me because?" Rommie looked around the Maru, as if she was looking for something.

"Dylan told me not to tell you. He said the lest people who knew, the better it would be."

"Oh, did he?"

"Have you got your gift wrapped yet?"

"No, I have not." Rommie crossed her arms as she looked over at Beka. "I don't know Trance as well as you do so it'll take me a bit longer." Rommie then turned to go. "I actually haven't thought of a gift yet."

"Rommie, the party's in a few hours. I suggest you get going." As the avatar left, Beka smiled as she looked at the pile of gifts. "This is gonna be a great party."

"You all ready know about my party?" Trance asked Beka, as she came up to her side.

"You're throwing a party?" Beka asked her, as she covered the boxes with a drop cloth. "When?"

"Tomorrow," Trance answered, as she looked around. "I thought you knew that all ready."

"Nope, I didn't. What have you heard?"

"That there's going to be a party."

"Really?"

"I think the others are talking about my party." Trance then shot her a smile. "I need to go invite the rest of the crew. I'll talk to you later." Then she was gone.

"She knows." Beka said to herself, as she looked around the Maru. "Oh, course she knows."
