Jordan's Ninth Birthday

.

"Sat - day is my 9th birt - day. Wat do you hav for me?" I read and my lips curved into a joyous smile. The excitement of being able to read what was written on the paper was irresistible. I swiftly folded the paper and placed it in my pocket. Retrieving my own golden paper, I wrote a response: "not in."

I really had nothing to give Jordan. I wish I could write "happy birthday".

As I heard Nadia's footsteps approaching her bathroom, I hurriedly made my way towards her bedroom. I carefully picked up her Luna tiara, adorned with the Lunar palace's sigil, and discreetly placed the small paper inside.

The colors matched perfectly, ensuring that no one would notice anything out of the ordinary. I trusted that Jordan would see it. Leaving the room swiftly, I returned to my work without delay.
