"Zach's birthday is coming. I want to give him a great birthday gift, but I can't seem to think of one. Also, I want to throw him a surprise birthday party. One that he would not expect," Keira answered.

Gavin, who had brought them hot chocolates, heard it, so he asked, "Do you want to throw him a big party? Or an intimate one, where it's going to be just the two of you?"

Keira pouted her lips and said, "I want one with the family and his close friends. He's been through a lot, and I'm sure he would want to celebrate it with family and friends too…"

"Hmm… I'll help you. I'm quite gifted when it comes to nice ideas," Gavin boasted, to which Thea laughed.
