In her hands, there was a black package containing a book and a pair of scented candles which was originally supposed to be sent to the idol’s house via courier service. But Hyemin wanted to see Chaerin in person so she took it upon herself to deliver the gift herself. Unfortunately, the older was not home. Time did not permit her to wait so she leaves it at her doorstep, praying that no one would steal it.
On top of the presents in the box was a letter written on black paper with silver ink, which reads:
First and foremost, Happy Birthday! I’m really glad your parents decide to hook up that night… because if it weren’t for them (and God, of course), the Earth wouldn’t be blessed with a beautiful human being (are you even human though, sometimes I think you’re a magical creature, like a unicorn, something like that) just like you!
For someone who has everything in the world, I was not sure what would suffice as a gift for your special day. Black and white is your aesthetic, despite how colourful you are as a person on the inside, it’s not boring, I find it elegant and graceful in a way. I’m digressing… but I hope you like the book that I’ve picked out (if you’re not much of a reader, I’m so sorry!!) It goes well with your aesthetic and there are some quotes in there that I think we both can relate to. I hope some of the poetry would give you strength when you feel down. Oh, and also! You can burn those scented candles while reading. You know, to get the whole relaxing experience. I picked out the colours that would match your interior. You can’t go wrong with black and white, right?
Once again, Happy Birthday unnie. You’re someone I admire a lot. I may or may not be one of your biggest fans. I hope you know you’re loved, not just by your fans, but by your friends and family too. We all love you and we want you to be happy always because you deserve all the happiness in the entire universe! I hope you’ll feel happy and loved today, tomorrow, forever, even if it’s not your birthday.
Have I said it enough? Maybe not, so here’s one more. I love you!
Finding the presents placed before her door was already a surprise and she quickly shuffled inside, more attention paid to the letter in her hand than to the cats crowded around her feet. Chaerin laughed through the words, still smiling as she opened the present. It was true to her aesthetic as Pony had said and she spent a second just admiring how nicely it was all matched and imagining that if she’d been given the package without a note she could’ve still guessed it to have been from Pony. After all the woman definitely had an eye for making things beautiful. After paging through the book a little she swiped up her phone to send a text directly to the gift giver.
