Novel & Cerita Rainy Birthday

Craig was a vampire and knowing the chances of being with him were slim, my heart ached with longing and also raced with envy for whoever he'd end up with. "Any plans for your birthday?" I cleared my throat to disperse my thoughts."Nope, I never really celebrated my birthday alone because my stepmom and I share the same date. It's a yearly ritual for her family and friends to visit. Not worth anticipating." "Well, in that case, you could sneak out with me," he suggested playfully. "I know you'll refuse but don't worry your pretty head. I'll keep you busy all day texting nonstop until you get tired of me."

he said "I'll pass" "I insist" "You can make me listen to it but you can't make me develop interest in it" he asserted. I felt my strength draining away from the not-so-long conversation and didn't want to argue further so I threw my hands up in surrender. Let's save the argument for another day, I thought, then I caught myself in mid-thought. Another day? Was I subconsciously wishing to see this Tim again? I scoffed at my thoughts. The rain had stopped then and the perfect curvature of the rainbow cast over the evening sky.

The event I don't want to go to. "Ma'am, Mr. Russo is waiting for you downstairs." My birthday has never been much of a big deal, seeing as I didn’t have much to throw a fancy party for myself. At the orphanage, birthdays are celebrated once a year for all the kids, on Christmas. So my birthday was always celebrated on December 25th rather than January 24th. It wasn't much of an event, but just a cake big enough to give everyone a bite and some drinks. Either way, we were all still excited.

The rain, the snow, wet floors. Ugh. But I am always compensated by the joy and happiness that envelopes me on my birthday, as it always fall on the early stage of winter. I make a mental note to visit Jude’s room tonight and look at the calendar there. I have lost track of time and days in my stay here. But I know I was born on the month of June. And I had gotten married to Jude on August. Right? I guess. The thought of my birthday brings a smile on my face. A smile that instantly disappears when I remember that Jude might not be here on that day.

As I approach, she reaches up to straighten my hair and pat my cheek. “Fine.” It’s not a lie. While it did take me a while to fall asleep, once I did, I slept like a baby. “Good, good. I’ve just been standing here for a few moments… looking at the sky. Do you think it will rain today?” I look at the sky in question and see a hazy gray color that tells me it’s a possibility, but then, the sun’s not all the way up. No bright patches of pink and orange light the horizon today. Whether it rains or not, it’s bound to be gloomy. Happy birthday to me.

"Alright, get to school. We don't want you to be late on your birthday." I kiss him on the cheek and get into the car. The universe must be on my team today because the first person I see when I park is Eva, getting out of her own car. She looks surprised but happy to see me come out of the car. "Girl, when did this happen?" She asks. "Just this morning. I'm so happy. My father gave it to me as a birthday present." "Today is your birthday?" I nod and she gives me a hug. "You should have said something. Happy birthday Rain."

Morrow City, November 21. When Angela left home, the weather was still clear. By the time she reached the cemetery, rain began to fall. Despite being someone who rarely ever carried an umbrella, she had been unusually prepared today and brought one with her. Because today was her mother’s birthday. There was a strange pattern—every year on her mother’s birthday, it rained. When her father was alive, he liked to joke with her mother. “Your lifespan must be longer than a turtle’s.”

“It’s my honor! I am very fortunate to be blessed by your magical elixir, I hope that I can repay your favor by doing all that I can to assist you!” Then, Lord Moore quickly added, “Oh yes, by the way, the password for this card is Jasmine’s birthday, 5951201.” Charlie glanced curiously at Jasmine. “Oh? Your birthday is on December 1st?” Jasmine bowed lightly and replied, “Yes, Master Wade, my birthday is on December 1st.” “Your birthday is less than a month away, then.” “Yes.” Jasmine nodded nervously, then asked in a tentative tone, “Master Wade, I may hold a simple birthday dinner on my birthday, I wonder if you are available to attend?”

It was raining heavily and it was unadvisable to drive in such weather. Damon noticed my change in mood and wrapped his hands around my waist. “What is it, baby? Is anything wrong?” I pouted, unable to resist telling him. “I made plans for us to go out, but the weather fucked that up,” I explained, looking out the window at how the rain continued pouring down heavily. “What’s the occasion?” I twisted in his arms to look at him, unimpressed. “I know you know I know it’s your birthday today.”

“One burger and fries please.” “With one milkshake.” I looked at the menu like I didn’t already know what I wanted. “Make that for two.” I rolled my eyes on recognising the voice. “What do you want?” I scowled at Jack. Since I’d placed my order, I found a very comfortable spot to sit in. The rain outside had just started and it didn’t look like it was letting up soon. Sometimes, it got very hot and other times, it got very cold. We were supposed to be in summer. My birthday was approaching very soon and dreaded everyday that led up to it.
