Novel & Cerita Johnny Cade Birthday

I reach for my phone to check the actual date when Nate precedes me, saying, “It’s the 24th of January. We should celebrate.” I take a deep breath. The 24th of January. I repeat it in my head again and again—my birth date. I never could’ve guessed. And I’ve been guessing all my life. “I don’t know. This feels weird,” I answer, brows still creased in confusion. I always knew that my birthday was almost certainly not in November, but it was nice that we chose the first snow day. “Well, I already told Jenny and Eleanor. Your friends are coming to your place after work,” he replies, face scrunching up.

Romi smacked the back of his head lightly. “Is that how you thank us?” “You don’t hit a man in front of his woman,” Chanel teased. We all laughed. Jesse the loudest. “You know,” he said, still grinning, “I’m going to remember this date forever. It’s an auspicious one.” Something about that word made me pull out my phone. I checked the calendar. And then, it hit me. The smile dropped from my face. It was today. Cade’s parents’ death anniversary.

Turning back to his computer, he slowly said, "My grandfather's birthday is on the 17th next month." "Yes, he's already sent out all his invitations too," Randy replied respectfully. "Do you have any special instructions, sir?" "Not particularly." John shook his head. Randy said nothing and watched as his boss hesitated before drafting a text and sending it as if it took him great courage. Meanwhile, Cordy was frowning—believing that it was Kyle again, she was going to put her phone on silent when she saw the sender. [Will you be free on the 17th next month?]

"Sweetie, that guy over there shamelessly said that he's the one who resolved the incident!" "Heh, him?" Wayne laughed contemptuously. "Sweetie, I've got good news for you!" Tina continued. "What is it?" Wayne was startled. "Mr. Jart wants to have another birthday party for me at Caesar Hotel tomorrow. He'll even come to send his wishes to me with Koda! Sweetie, it's all thanks to you!" Tina said excitedly. Wayne was stunned at this news. He hadn't expected a phone call from his dad to be so useful!

I answered with a laugh when I saw the two of them blushing. "Che. Stop right there. Kuya Jay oh." She complained to her older brother. The former Alpha team is complete as well as the young royalties are here. "Anyways, congrats Cia! You're 23." Zephyra said as she hugged her boyfriend, Adrian. Yes, they stayed to the end. "Ha? 23? What date is it today?" I asked and looked at the calendar. "Baby it's October 20. Did you forget? It's your birthday." Drake said trying to hold his laugh.

“Good. Now you can move on. And congratulations on the baby. I don’t think I ever told you that.” I leaned back in my chair and crossed my legs under my desk. “Thank you. We weren’t ready to start a family just yet, but I’m glad that it happened.” “Hades will be a good father. He’s the best guy I know.” Listening to the pain in his voice made me so sad. “He’ll come around.” He sighed loudly, like he didn’t agree with that statement at all. “It’s his birthday on Thursday. That’s why I’m calling, just so you know. He’s not big on celebrating his birthday, so I know he would never tell you.”

“About time.” He playfully nips at the finger I run over his bottom lip. “I know it’s technically past your birthday, but I still want you to make a wish.” Cade reaches between us, his knuckles brushing against my inner thigh as he reaches into his pocket. He brings out the same lighter from a few years ago. “It’s not a proper birthday unless you make a wish and blow out the candles.” “I made a wish earlier. You were there. The cupcakes, remember?”

There is no tongue involved, but it affects me just the same. A throat clears, “Do you mind releasing my girl?” Jace chuckles as he pulls me away from his friend and straight into his arms. “My bad.,” Jude says as he wipes the corner of his mouth and winks at me, “See you in a few months.” “Oh, wait! My birthday is the very end of August. I would love it if you guys are able to make it back, even if it’s just for the weekend. I’ll understand if you can’t though, I just wanted to let you know.”

Especially knowing that at that time she hadn't brainwashed me yet. Anyways, I need to know when is this. How much time do I still have before my birthday? Turning to meet Kate's pinkish eyes, I voiced my doubt, "Kate, what's today's date?" "Oh… It's July 3rd of the year 279 in the Caspien Calendar¹!" My birthday is on the 3rd of December. That gives me, exactly, 5 months until my 14th anniversary. I can do a lot of things in that amount of time.

In their conversation Livius mentioned there the upcoming birthday of Sage. I want to interfere and ask the date but I bit my tongue to stop myself. Jonas looked at me with a raised eyebrow. He seemed to notice my restraint. "August 19 is Sage's birthday. You don't know, Kaia?" Jonas asked casually, grinning. "For sure Tita Valerina will organize a big celebration for him. I'm sure he will invite you." I'm almost dizzy. Jonas was so tactless! I haven't even told Mama about Sage and me but this one doesn't know how to feel.
