In the Smiths' mansion, after dinner, they sat in the living room, chatting.
They were talking about Phoebe's birthday which was coming up a few weeks later.
"Last year, Mum gave me a piano for my birthday, Sheldon gave me a collection of paintings, and Dad was the most old-fashioned. He gave me money directly…" Phoebe pouted unhappily.
Allen smiled dotingly. "Don't be angry. I've prepared a gift for you this year."
Phoebe smiled. "Thank you, Dad!"
"Do you have any plans for your birthday party?" Sheldon asked.
"Birthday party…" Phoebe bit her lip, a little hesitant. "I think… I'd better not hold a birthday party."
If she held a party, Claire would also show up. She didn't want her to steal her thunder, definitely not!
Although Claire wasn't capable of stealing her thunder.
Phoebe said with an innocent look, "I think it's too extravagant and wasteful. It's better to donate the money to the poor."
