Prompt 7
Happy birthday
"And what should I do about it? 'the brunette tapped her index finger on the cake's plastic packaging, once again asking the same question.
Today is her birthday, and on such a day she was home alone, and not that she complained.
With her mother, she celebrated her birthday yesterday with a festive dinner, and this morning went to a sewing meeting.
Hiromi was on a date with her boyfriend, but before that she managed to meet and give a gift with a cake, which she was now thinking about, because it was not possible to eat alone, and everyone who could at least somehow keep her company was busy. She again sank into thought, not knowing who to spend the day with.
"Remember, Haru, if you need us again, day or night, the bureau doors will reopen."
"What are these thoughts, and why did I suddenly remember him after so much time"
"But if you think so, then maybe nothing that I will go to him," she looked at the cake and a smile appeared on her face, "Muta, it seems to me, will definitely be glad of my arrival, or rather the cake that I will bring"
"Yeah, really stop hesitating, there's nothing weird about visiting an old friend, just like that?" 'She had flushed cheeks and couldn't do anything about the reaction because her feelings still stuck with her and didn't go away.
With these thoughts, she quickly climbed to the top, turned the whole closet to the floor, and chose an outfit that was quite elegant, and at the same time it was impossible to say whether she dressed up like that or not - "I am a birthday girl, which means no suspicion," she said to herself.
Having dressed, she took advantage of her favorite spirits, grabbing a cake at the exit, went to the intersection.
Of course, Muta was not on her, but fortunately she remembered the road to the shelter.
The path was still difficult because it was designed for a cat, not a person.
But having made a couple of hooks, she was in the place she needed, only for some reason there was a noise from the arch that looked like a fight, and she hurried a little to see what was happening there.
And it was amazing inside there were wildlife creations and they were wild, for the most part because of their aggressive way of attacking.
"Hello, Haru" - said Toto, catching his breath.
The crow's remark made the baron distract from the fight in which he participated for a second, and I must say, his blows are still just as artificial, - "Miss Haru, I apologize that I can't say hello more perfectly, but welcome to the bureau again"
"Baron, enough with gentlemanly manners, there are more of them again," Muta interrupted him.
"Then, since I came to you, can I join your fun," Haru suggested, taking someone's lying sword, it was not convenient for her to use, but it was at least some kind of weapon.
"Extra hands will not hurt" - and the baron was not against her help, perfectly remembering her observation.
Indeed, Haru shied away from the attacks of creations, and, if necessary, used the sword, knocking down creations like eels.
A little later, the main fights looked at the harrow, but threw suspicious glances at the girl, - "Who is this person, my methods do not affect her."
Baron allowed himself a gloating smile, - "Pretty girl who came to solve her affairs"
"This is not the answer to my question," growled another creation
"And if I add that she's my little miss, will you be good with that?"
But the creature said nothing more, because the baron did not allow him to do this by striking, after which he lost consciousness.
"I think we solved this problem" - the baron turned his gaze from an unconscious body, to comrades and a guest, rather exhausted.
"Finally, "Muta said, rushing to the rock ground.
Since his fight ended, he has now concentrated on the brunette, slightly injured hand in the fight - "I think now I can ask what happened to Miss Haru."
"Nothing special, today is just my birthday..." Haru began feeling uncomfortable after "my miss."
"Congratulations"
"Thank you and here I had a cake but everyone I could eat it with was busy doing their own thing and I thought maybe come here and share the cake with you."
"It's the right decision," Muta said energetically, any mention of food seeming to add to his mood.
"Then I'll make a tea mixture for him."
"Your grass again."
"Muta you can not drink, but leave the guest without tea, bad form."
"But what are we going to do with them?" Toto asked, pointing one wing at the bodies of the creations.
"Nothing, we can safely leave them like that, they still won't wake up soon"
"It's good," Haru said, and again, like a year ago, she followed the baron to his bureau, "Nothing has changed here," and in general it was the same in the baron's house, even all things were in place, although many cards were added, and she liked the one where a separate mainland, or island, was painted, she did not see any more, as the Baron quickly moved them aside.
After the tea party ended, she said goodbye to them and went to her home with a happy smile, it was her best birthday, not offended by the previous ones, she just had another precious adventure today, which will become a memory in telling the children at night, instead of fairy tales.
