Wala akong pakialam pero si Aira gusto niyang iparamdam sayo kung gaano ka kahalaga sa kanya. How thankful she is na isinilang ka at dumating sa buhay niya. You are so lucky to have her alam mo ba yun? At lahat sinasayang mo!" Wala akong masabi. Tama siya. Mali ako.

Poppy continued, her voice filled with warmth, “Ayokong palagpasin ang pagkakataon. Nag-alarm ako dahil gusto kong ako ang unang babati sa ‘yo. Wala kasi ako diyan, eh. Kaya kahit man lang sa pagbati, makabawi ako sa ‘yo.” My heart swelled with emotion. Ginantihan ko ang ngiti niya, though the sadness was still evident in my eyes. “Thank you, Poppy. Nawala na sa isip ko na birthday ko ngayon. Pero salamat hindi mo nakalimutan. Happy na ‘ko. Sobra.” Poppy's expression softened, understanding the depth of my feelings. “Hayaan mo, sa susunod na birthday mo, mas magiging happy ka pa dahil magkasama na tayong mag-c-celebrate.”

"Mommy, why do I receive a lot of gifts when my birthday is coming?" She curiously asked while scratching the tip of her nose. "Because every time you age it's a gift, a gift from god." Nangunot ang noo ni Sierah.

bulong ko, hindi alam kung paano pakakalmahin ang damdaming unti-unti nang bumibigat sa dibdib ko. “Most people think birthdays are just about celebration,” sabi niya, habang hinahaplos ang likod ng kamay ko. “But for me, it’s always been a reminder. Of who I’ve lost. Of what I no longer have. But tonight, with you…” Tumingin siya diretso sa mga mata ko. “You gave me something I thought I’d never feel again. Warmth. Belonging. Real happiness.” Hindi ko napigilan. Lumapit ako sa kaniya at niyakap ko siya ng mahigpit.

Nakalagay din sa letter na may extra cash doon to celebrate my 18th birthday. Natulala ako. Malapit na naman ang birthday ko. At kapag malapit na ang birthday ko, muli kong naaalala ang nangyari walong taon na ang nakakalipas sa mismong kaarawan ko. My birthday will forever remind me how long my parents passed away. They have died on the day when I was born. Kaya tuwing birthday ko, instead of celebrating the day, I mourn.

Isang paglalakbay patungo sa pagkilala at pagtanggap sa sarili — isang pag-asa na kahit gaano man kahirap ang daan, may bukas na mas maliwanag at puno ng pagkakataon. It's her 24th birthday — well, actually nila ni Apollo ‘yang plano. Nagkasundo silang i-celebrate lang nang simple sa Sweet Buds pag-uwi nila galing sa kani-kanilang trabaho. Wala masyadong gala, gusto lang nila ng tahimik pero espesyal na araw.

Binuntunan niya pa ito ng isang matipunong tikhim. "Did I say I want to celebrate with you, it means, I want to celebrate my birthday with you. Sorry for not telling you directly like you didn't gets what I mean by that," Sambit niya sa mahinahong boses ngunit bakas ang lamig nito. "Iyan tuloy wala akong regalo sayo, pwede bang ihabol ko na lang? Hmm, ano bang gustong gift ng boyfriend ko?" Malambing kong tanong sa kaniya.

Bulong niya sa akin at niyakap niya ulit ako at hinalikan sa noo. "Happy birthday I want you to celebrate many more birthday with us... I love you too!" Matamis kong sabi sa kaniya at ginawaran ko siya ng halik sa labi na kaagad niya rin namang tinugon at mas idinikit niya ang katawan ko sa katawan niya para mas palalimin ang halik. "Thank you..." He whispered to me and he hug me even more. If it's he's the best birthday ever, for me this is the blessed day for our family, there birhday become our engagement party.

Your old life. Your relationship with your parents and most of all with your brother. That's the gift that my father wanted to give you before. But since he died, it got delayed. But I still managed to give it to you after all these years. Happy Birthday, Uncle Wilbert…”

Napangiti ako nang sa wakas ay mabasa ang laman no'n. Dear bish, You probably know by now that I'm not fond of writing long messages (even simply writing, lol), so I apologize if this was too short (and I'm tryna makin' it long this way). Happy partnership anniversary, and I couldn't thank you enough for giving me our beautiful twins and a special family. I'm not exactly very good to you all the time, but please stay and bear with me. I don't mind growing old with you because I know I will still be cute by then. Thank you so much for supporting me and for always being there for me.
