Amy took a taxi and arrived at a luxurious hotel.
After getting out of the car and checking the address, she went towards a private room in the hotel specified on the note. Although Amy found the client's request was weird, she did not think too much. She believed that Erin would not lie to her.
There was no waiter outside the private room. Amy knocked on the door, but no one answered.
Amy tried to push and was surprised that the door was opened. Then she could see how big the room was. However, it was empty. There was no one inside. She wondered if she went to the wrong place.
Amy took out the note again, but she was suddenly pushed inside at that moment. And just as she entered the private room, the lights inside instantly went out.
"Who are you?" as Amy spoke, she heard somebody open the door of the inner room. And then, she saw the glow of fire there. The fire was slowly moving towards her. She then heard people singing a song.
"Happy birthday to you, happy birthday..." A group of people walked out from the inner room. They were all singing and clapping their hands. It turned out that the glow came from candles. In the candlelight, there was a big cake.
Someone pushed the cake towards Amy. Now she saw clearly that Andy was holding the cake followed by Hannah, Kevin, and Hilary.
After singing the song, Hannah approached Amy and said to her, "Amy, make a wish. Make a wish before you blow the candle."
At that moment, Amy was so moved that she was lost for words. She covered her mouth with her hands.
She tried her best not to cry and took a deep breath.
"Yeah, Amy, make a wish." Hilary also urged her.
Both of them came up to Amy and stood beside her. They were all waiting for Amy to make a wish.
In the candlelight, Amy made a wish with great joy and they blew out the candles together.
"Oh! Wonderful! Amy, happy birthday!" Everyone surrounded Amy and burst into laughter.
The lights were turned on. Andy handed a knife to Amy and asked her to cut the cake for everyone.
Waiters served the dishes quickly. When Amy finished cutting the cake, the dishes were all brought to the table. Everyone got a piece of the beautiful cake.
"I'm ... I really feel touched! I don't even know what to say." Amy said emotionally.
"It's your 21st birthday today. We all remember it. We just want to give you a big surprise!" Hannah said to Amy. She took a bite of the cake and felt that just eating by herself was not enough, so she picked a fork and fed Amy some cake, too.
The cake tasted so sweet and yummy.
"Alright, everybody, take a seat. The dishes today are also very tasty. I recommend you all to try them." Andy asked everyone to sit down.
Amy looked at Andy. He was wearing a grey suit and a white shirt today. Amy still remembered that Andy always wore a white shirt when he was still a little boy. His taste for dressing hadn’t changed even after ten years.
Andy also looked at Amy. She was just dressed casually today. But that made sense since no one had told her to dress up for the party. Fortunately, everyone had prepared a gift for her.
"So here is the plan today. We will have lunch here first, and then we will go to somewhere else. I want to show you all my new place." Andy said to everyone.
"Wow! Andy wants to show us his new place. A new place! How nice!" Everyone laughed as Hannah spoke exaggeratedly. Kevin was sitting beside Hannah, and he was gazing lovingly at her.
It was simply an accident that Kevin was here today. He didn't know it was Amy's birthday today, and he had just been following Hannah around. He had never thought that Hannah was such an interesting girl. Hannah wanted to kick him out, but she took him to the inner room in the end as she heard that Amy was almost there.
