I have been reserving this post for a while now. I want it to be special. Just like how I want the surprise to be special.
The surprised happened early this month, but the actual planning started weeks before that. It was my first BIG surprise for someone I love, in fact, for anyone at all. Carrying it out made me more nervous than anything else. The night before the surprise I couldn't sleep at all.

All i told her was to free her birthday morning out for me. I told that i wanted to sing karaoke on her birthday with her. I didn't give out any hint to the surprise at all, i hope she didn't sensed anything.
Since i wasn't able to sleep properly the night before, so i can't really wake up the next day (although i set my alarm clock at 10am). She texted me in the next morning suddenly, saying that she will arrive at my house earlier. I was still half awake sitting on my bed when i got her message. I wasn't expected that she will come so early.
Still in my pyjamas, i quickly rushed downstairs, get what i prepared and hide it in the car. (I planned to surprised her during our karaoke.) I have to hide in the car boot because i'm afraid that she might saw it if i hide inside the car.
About 11am, reached Greenbox, Jusco Cheras Selatan.
Karaoke. Sing.
I was so nervous, i waited and waited. I kept on looking at my phone, because i forgotten to wear a watch. Finally, it's show time. I told her that i'm going to the toilet. I left the room, half running and half walking, returned to my car and get my present for her. The parking lot was quite far from Greenbox, i was praying hard in my heart that she won't suspect anything, and won't come out looking for me.
When i returned back to Greenbox, i was so kelam kabut that time, and i nearly burn the whole cupcake box when i lit the candle. The Greenbox's supervisor saw me, he came forward and helped me. And he also asked me whether i want to have birthday song along when i bring in the cupcake.
There goes my birthday surprise.
I was singing birthday song and i walked into the room. I felt so silly when i thought it back.

The original cupcakes actually looks like this. The icing on top melted and smudged a lil' bit when i presented it to JY because i put it inside the car for too long. The colour has somehow changed. I'm so sorry, my first time doing this.

''Dearest JY, this is the birthday gift for you. And we celebrated it together. I can't afford something expensive for you. And sorry if my birthday surprise sucks ;P. (You know that i'm not good in planning things, somemore this was the first birthday surprise i planned for others.) But this surprise took me some time to prepared, and as far as my effort shows. I may not be the best best friend of yours, in deepest of my heart, i love you... Happy Birthday, Darling.''
