Jake's Surprise Birthday Party

“Jake’s Birthday Disaster… or Was It?” It was supposed to be the best day

of Jake’s life. His 14th birthday. He had been talking about it all week. Cake.

Friends. Music. Everything perfect. But nothing went the way he planned.

That morning, Jake walked into the living room expecting balloons everywhere.

Instead… the house was quiet. Too quiet. No decorations. No cake.

No presents. Not even a “Happy birthday.” Jake’s heart sank. “Did everyone forget…?”

He walked outside, hoping at least his friends remembered. But when he reached the gate,

his best friend Mia walked past without even looking at him. “Wow… even she forgot?”
