Chapter 19-Mirage's Birthday.
Mirage sat on her couch, reading a book when Dash came in after a nap.
"Good morning, Dash." Mirage said with a smile.
"Morning, Aunt Mirage. What's for breakfast?" Dash asked before Mirage led him into the kitchen and pointed him to a huge plate of blueberry pancakes, which Dash dove into.
Later on, Dash looked at the calendar and, when he noticed Mirage had circled Violet's birthday, he got curious about something.
He walked into the living room, where Mirage was still reading and said, "Aunt Mirage, when is your birthday?"
Mirage looked at him with a surprised face before she said, "Well, the note my parents left with me told my foster family my birthday was on June 24th. But, they never really celebrated it." with a sad face.
Dash felt sorry for her before he got an idea.
On the 24th, Mirage was waking up when her phone rang. She yawned and picked up the phone and said, "Hello?"
"Aunt Mirage, you have to come over to our house right now! There's something big happening here!" Dash said.
"I'm on my way!" Mirage said as she hopped off her bed.
Later, Mirage's car skidded to a stop in front of the Parr House. She walked up to the door and opened it.
The second she did, the lights cut on and the Parrs, Wannabes, Edna, Rick, and Winston popped out from different spots, everyone holding presents while Helen held a cake.
"SURPRISE! HAPPY BIRTHDAY, MIRAGE!" everyone shouted.
Mirage was wide-eyed and literally speechless. Everyone knew about her birthday?!
She stared before she smiled and said, "For me? Aw, you shouldn't have."
"Don't be silly, Mirage. It was the least we could do." Bob said with a smile before he gave her a party hat.
Mirage smiled as she put it on before she asked, "But, how did you all know today was my-?" she cut herself off when she realized the answer.
As if on cue, Dash walked to the front of the pack, "Happy Birthday, Aunt Mirage." he said.
Mirage stared at him before she smiled and teared up a bit, realizing what he had done.
Afterwards, everyone ate some food, played some party games, and at the end of it all, everyone gathered as Mirage sat with her birthday cake at the table.
(Everyone) Happy Birthday To You!
Happy Birthday To You!
Happy Birthday, Dear Mirage!
Happy Birthday To You!
Mirage smiled as she made a wish and blew out her candles. After cake and ice cream, Mirage opened gifts, and the party went on for some time before everyone else went home.
Just before Mirage was about to leave, Dash walked up to her. He was the only one who hadn't given her a gift.
"Sorry, Aunt Mirage. I had to wrap mine." Dash said as he handed it to her. She unwrapped it and gasped at seeing a clay statue that he had made in school. It was her in her usual attire and she was smiling as she had her arms crossed. She could tell it had been heated as the paint on it looked glassy.
Mirage smiled at it before she bent down and gave Dash a tight hug.
"Thank you, Dash. It may not have been on my birthday, but a nephew like you was the greatest gift I could ever ask for." Mirage said as Dash hugged her back, a smile on his face.
"You're welcome, Aunt Mirage." Dash said.
