Happy Birthday Susan Cake Novels & Stories

Even a simple ‘thanks’ was not heard from the Detective’s mouth. “What was that about, Dr. Marquez?” I asked. She sighed and walked towards me. “Miss Cake couldn’t accept the fact that her younger brother is just her half-sibling. I decided to drop the bomb today since this was the first time I got to interact with her and probably my only chance. I am the biological mother of Jonathan Rover Cake. She deserved to know it.” “So, you’re saying that… Mr. Front Page, the consulting detective, Arthur Cake cheated on Detective Chief Superintendent Zekinah White?”

"Angus, Susan had too much to drink and insisted on dancing with me. I couldn't stop her, so please don't hold it against me!" In the video, Susan wrapped her arms around his neck, her gaze dreamy as she looked up at him. Her whole body was pressing tightly against Charles while the people around them were chanting, "Kiss! Kiss!" The next second, Susan leaned in to kiss him, and the video cut off, but that was enough for me. "Got it," I replied passively. Maybe it was the lack of resistance from me, but Charles became even more brazen after that. "Angus Baker, you're the most gutless man I've ever seen. Susan had too much to drink tonight, so she's staying over at my place. Don't worry, I'll

"Leslie is like my brother. His parents passed away early—who else would spend his birthday with him if not me? Don't be so petty. If you keep acting like this, I'll get mad!" "You're right. It's only natural for you to be there for him. I'm not mad." Unable to sleep anymore, I got up and went to the bathroom. Katherine grabbed my hand and, with obvious reluctance, pulled out a red string bracelet from her pocket. "Here. Don't sulk anymore. It's your birthday gift. I chose something red to bring you good luck." I looked at the cheap red string and the dangling metal charm swaying with her movement. It felt perfunctory.

"Jessica, you haven't been here in ages. She's the new college student who works at our shop—Lucy Lacher. Your husband recommended her." Then she turned toward the girl. "This is your sponsor's wife. Hurry and say hello." Lucy kept her eyes lowered, her voice barely louder than a whisper. "H-Hello." I couldn't help laughing. Wasn't she just flaunting herself moments ago, bragging about how someone pampered and spoiled her? Why was she shrinking into an ostrich now? Only then did I finally take the egg tarts she'd been holding out the entire time. I glanced down and frowned.

hung from the canopy's center, flapping lazily in the wind. Inside the canopy, a long table was laden with an assortment of colorful cupcakes, a towering ice cream sundae, and a magnificent birthday cake adorned with fondant shapes of cars and planes. The cake's base was surrounded by seven candles, each one bearing a small, shiny numeral. Kael, resplendent in a bright blue shirt and matching party hat, beamed with excitement as he greeted his friends. There were only five of them, but Kael didn't seem to mind. It was his first birthday party to be celebrated, and this was the first time ever that he'd been permitted to have friends over from school.

I defended. "He is too!" Susie deadpanned. "He is not." "Oh come on, don't be a child about this. You and I knew this was going to happen. It's Xavier we're talking about." Susie chastened. My lips formed a pout and I shoved more cake into my mouth. It was a vanilla sponge cake that simply melted on my tongue. Best comfort food ever if you ask me. "Come on Hailey," Susie mumbled, her voice dropping the playful edge it had before. Her eyes stared into mine and I sighed knowing she was right. "You had to have known things with Xavier wouldn't work out."

Tolu said, Okay, bro, I promised to be there” Susan said, and she smiles, “am grateful to hear you say that,” Zack said, “what are you going to base your celebration on?“ Susan asked, “our mother's surprised birthday,” Tolu said, “will that be appropriate?“ he asked, “that will be great" Susan replied, "In that case, I will invite all my friends and colleagues,” she says, “don't tell mom about the surprising birthday, and you will come to my house to discuss and organize it in my house, and the meeting should be every Sunday," Tolu said,

I got so emotional, that I didn't know when tears began rushing out, it was happy tears, I hugged Sophie tightly thanking her repeatedly. She introduced me to some members, since I was the celebrant I couldn't hide from them, some were nice to me while some were not. Everywhere was decorated with black and gold including the cake. The cake is beautiful. That explains why she made me dress in this. Then it's dawn on me that the special person she was talking about is me. The cake is a black and gold two tier with caramel popcorn, macarons, chocolate drip, and a custom cake topper with Happy twentieth birthday boldly on it. What more can I ask for?

Susan questioned. I turned to Bianca, who was staring at me, yet I couldn't read her expression. "Why are you asking me that?" I chuckled nervously, sensing that something was wrong. Why did this sound like a trick question? "Shouldn't there be a celebration today?" Susan was giving me a clue, but I wasn't getting it. "Aren't we, uhm, already cele—" "Today is Susan's birthday," Bianca chimed in, and my eyes widened in shock. Fuck me!

Zack said, nudging her while the cake sat in front of her. As she gazed upon the cake, her eyes widened in wonder; a gentle chuckle escaped her lips while steepling her fingers together, partly closing her eyes. After what seemed like a brief second, her eyes peeled open, lingering on the cake's designs. Delicate daffodils crafted from sugar and icing swayed around the edges, their bright yellow petals shining like miniature suns. Cursive script—'HAPPY BIRTHDAY WIFEY'—spread out on the smooth surface. "Seriously, Zack, this..." She was lost for words as her eyes were still pinned on the cake, unwilling to look away. A pleased sigh spilled over from her lips, mesmerized by the baker's craftsm
