J never celebrated her birthday overseas even if Lance insisted. He would invite her to a club, a bar, dinner at a restaurant, or even at home but she is adamant about not doing anything. She would rather sleep or spend the day at a speedway. Even so, Lance would still give her a present that J cannot refuse.
"When Dr. Jacob said that you were coming and that we should prepare something for you, I seized the opportunity to make up for the years that you were alone on your birthday. I called them here to celebrate with you."
J gulped the knot that formed in her throat. She felt guilty. She pulled herself away from Mrs. Potters. "No, I guess I was just surprised and overwhelmed. I'm sorry."
She turned and looked at everyone. "Thank you for this." She said then she gave them a faint smile.
