Chapter 42: Happy birthday!
Large pink eyes slowly opening, Nancy yawned, her small cherry red lips wide open. She slowly sat up on the huge bed, smacking her lips like she just had a taste of something sweet in her dreams while her eyes were struggling to keep open themselves.
Her barefoot feet landed noisilessly on the ground. She looked so cute in her oversized T shirt which scarcely hugged her curves and stopped just some centimeters above her knees. Her hair was a mess and she didn’t even bother to fix it up as she brushed her teeth smiling the entire time. She was just very happy today for a special reason unknown to everyone in the house except Talia of course. When she done, she bolted for that bathroom door.
She suddenly dashed towards Talia on the bed and began shaking the bed with energetic and vigorous joy. Since it was going to be the Alpha’s naming ceremony today, she was thinking she and her best friend could celebrate her birthday just in the fields before the event. They could get a few snacks and just have a small party in the fields.
"You sleepy head!!! Wake up and wish me happy birthday!!!" She sounded excited. However the smile turned upsidedown when she saw the pillows which were hidden underneath the blankets. Confused, she ran her hands over the bed as if to be sure that no one was else was there.
"Talia..." She almost teared up as she dropped the pillows back on the bed and slowly backed away. "Oh no!!! You turned into a pillow on my birthday!!!"
She began sobbing and started talking to herself.
"I...I...just asked the moon goddess to grant me a few wishes for my birthday. I told her to make my Dad love me again," She started counting everything off with her finger. "And for him to stop loving that mean scary woman and her daughter and I also asked for the perfect mate ..." She began wailing loudly. "I also asked her to make you a softie because you act hard-headed sometimes and you forget you’re a girl. I didn’t ask for you to be turned into a pillow!"
She gladly jumped on the bed and hugged the pillow, snuggling into it.
"You are very soft though. I think I’m going to cuddle with you like this for today. Whether you like it or not." She began talking to the pillow.
"I don’t know if I should tell the others about my birthday. I mean today’s the Alpha’s Naming Ceremony and I just think telling them would be an inconvenience." Nancy sighed. "It’s bad my father stopped wishing me happy birthday since a long time. I just wish my friends would..."
Suddenly the door burst open and she sat up like a bolt clutching the pillow uptight. Her huge wavering eyes however became much larger when she saw Talia Infront of almost everyone she had seen in the house with a smile on her face.
"Happy birthday Nancy!!" Everyone shouted with genuine smiles on their faces, Talia’s voice, the loudest.
