Jenna sat at a cafe with Andrea, Mizuki and Cathy. Each had a cup in front of them.
"Where's Michael?" Mizuki asked.
"Oh...he went out with James to go buy Jensen's gift." Cathy.
Mizuki nodded slowly and Cathy did like wise. "Those two are going all out!" They both said slowly.
"It was already bad for the both of them to go out together." Andrea pointed out stirring his decaf with his spoon.
"That aside...." Jenna said looking at Mizuki. "So what's the actual date?"
"June twentieth." Mizuki said.
"Alright, it's the thirteenth. That's a good week for us to start planning something good enough for him." Andrea said.
"What do we do for a shut in boy that turning eighteen on the twentieth?" Catherine asked.
"Well, think of it like it's my birthday but I'm a bit shut in." Andrea said.
"Shut up you bozo. You're birthday was January." Jenna said.
Andrea sighed picking up a toothpick. He twirled it round his fingers the flicked it at her head.
"Ouch." She said calmly yet annoyed.
"I'm saying that just use me as an example I'm already eighteen and a boy like Jensen so I kinda have somethings in mind he might like." He said taking a of his decaf.
"Why not use me?" Jenna asked dropping two sugar cubes in her latte.
"First of if you continue like that be expecting diabetes very soon." He said taking the sugar bowl before she could carry another one.
"Ass." Jenna cursed under her breath.
"Second, your birthday is not till October 3rd and you're a girl. To no offence I don't think any of you will know exactly what Jensen likes like I do." He said matter of factly.
"Afinal, quem diabos você pensa que é, seu pirralho cara de porco?" Lara said with closed eyes. "I'm his fucking older sister. I watched him grow."
"Huh?" Andrea said confused. "What did she say?"
"I'm not going to answer you." Cathy said sipping her green tea and smiling at Mizuki
"Just know that she called you a pigfaced brat." James voice rang out from behind them.
Andrea and Jenna turned to face his direction. He stood at the door way with Michael by his side.
"How do you know?" Cathy asked.
"I've spent like three years with her. And part of it had infused language classes that she forced me to take." He said.
The two walked up to them. They pulled up chairs and sat with the group.
"Where did you guys go?" Andrea asked.
"Some shopping." Michael said as he took his iced tea from Catherine.
"Why do I have a feeling that you're going all out for this?" Mizuki said.
"Cause we are." They both said casually.
"What did you buy?" Jenna asked.
"That for another day." James said calmly before he turned to look at Mizuki who was by his right. "Does he like surprises?"
"Yeah. He actually liked surprise parties till he stopped celebrating his birthday." She said.
No one needed to ask why. They all knew it was because of the loss of their dad.
"Ok then where do we have the party?" Cathy asked.
"My house." Jenna said simply.
Everyone looked at her for explanation. She sighed palming her head.
"Why?" She said to herself. "Seriously?"
"Can you shut up and explain you princess." Andrea barked out as he saw her hand reaching for another sugar cube. "And stop with the sugar, Britney sweet tooth."
"Ugh. Fine. My house is the best option because renting an event hall is sus, trying to plan in his house will be a fool's idea. He doesn't know you guys house, Catherine so the best place is my place." She said.
"Why not use my name instead of theirs?" Michael asked slowly.
"Is that really what you're worried about?" Andrea asked.
"Can we focus." Catherine said drawing the two brothers' attention.
"So it's settled. My house." Jenna said. "What about the theme for the party?"
"While we were in Japan, he was really into anime, manga, manwha. Then for our other background, he really loves the pastries Grandpa Nate always and the spaghetti and empanadas abuela Isabella makes." Mizuki said.
"Do you know how to make those?" Andrea asked.
"Yeah, why not? I spent a lot of time with them. Cathy and James can help me." She said.
"Fat chance." James said.
Mizuki and Catherine shot him dangerous glances.
"That I won't help." He said chuckling awkwardly.
"Alright. Andrea and I will handle the decorations while Jenna you be general overseer." Michael said taking notice of Jensen outside from the windows.
He tapped the table twice with a spoon and everyone understood immediately.
They had all adjusted when Jensen walked in. "He guys."
He walked up to Mizuki and planted a kiss on her head. Then he did the same to Jenna. He gave the guys fist bumps then sat beside Jenna after waving warmly at Catherine.
"Why didn't you kiss me first?" She whined like a child.
"Don't be jealous." Mizuki said.
"Yeah. She's my old sister." He said.
He took her cup from her taking a sip. His eyes widened and he almost spat the liquid out. He forced himself to swallow it coughing.
"Jesus Christ!" He exclaimed reaching for a napkin. "God! The fuck is that? Is it meant to be latte or super sugar tea?"
Everyone laughed looking at his facial expressions.
"I told you tooth fairy." Andrea said crossing his arms over his chest.
"It's not that sweet." She said looking at the two.
"How many cubes?" Jensen asked looking at her.
"Huh?" She said in confusion.
"How many cubes?" He asked again.
Jenna began counting with her fingers then stopped after five. She remained silent as everyone was looking at her.
"Answer, Jelly." Jensen said firmly.
"Three, plus six plus eight then two and a half." She said slowly looking down.
"Jesus Cristo, amor, dezessete cubos? Você está tentando ter açúcar alto no sangue, uma explosão de açúcar e diabetes tudo de uma vez?" Tiago said.
[Jesus Christ, Babe, seventeen cubes? Are you trying to get high blood sugar, sugar rush and diabetes.]
"Wow that's something." James said laughing.
"Big sis." Jenna called out. "Can you translate for me."
Mizuki smiled and everyone burst out laughing at her as she looked like a little child that just got scolded.
