Giselle had passed Casper a rather large, cylindrical object wrapped in paper tulle.

It feels like a cake box.

Just then, another thought crossed his mind.

Did I put down today’s date as my birthday in the school records?

He stared at her with an indecipherable expression in his eyes.

Giselle flushed even more furiously under his stare. She had a strong urge to flee the scene.

Swallowing her embarrassment, she proceeded with the second part of her plan.

“Happy birthday to you-”

Giselle began singing to Casper in her sweet, melodious voice.

Her rendition of a short and simple birthday song was ethereal.

Casper could not look away from her even if he wanted to. He felt utterly hypnotized.

The cake in his hands suddenly felt priceless.

In the blink of an eye, Giselle had finished singing, and the two of them fell into silence. She could not speak out of shyness, while Casper was awestruck.

Giselle broke the silence.

“Erm, Casper, Happy Birthday. There’s a small gift in the package, along with a birthday cake. That’s all. Bye!”
