Talia

I knew that with everything that was going on, Reagan and Rika didn’t feel much like celebrating their birthdays this year. There was a lot that we were all working on, especially the two of them. And they didn’t want to take the focus off of the hard work and put it on them.
Reagan and Rika were both great siblings and people. They cared about us all so much, and they weren’t usually all that selfish. Yes, they had their moments, but so does everyone in the world. Not even I was exempt from that aspect of life. Neither were my parents. We were all human, well humanish. And that meant that we were all ruled by our hearts and emotions at times.
Now, speaking of being ruled by our hearts and emotions, that was what made me want to surprise my brother and sister. We could have a special day with each of them, but that would take away from the surprise a little. Usually, we alternated which day we surprised the two of them on. They were twins, born just minutes apart from each other, but they had two different birthdays. I always loved that fact about them. And I think that they did too.
Now, what I was planning here was going to take some effort. First, I needed to tell my parents not to make any plans on the thirtieth this year. We would surprise the two of them on Reagan’s birthday. That way they wouldn’t think that we forgot about their special days.
That was probably the easiest part of the plans that I wanted to make. I knew that my parents would want to celebrate the two of them. They were very loving parents that would more often than not put us kids before their work. Yes, there were times when they needed to prioritize other things, but not all that often.
I talked to Abigail, the next coconspirator in my whole plan. She was the one that was going to gather the help of the other tower chefs and go all out for breakfast on that Friday morning. She and the others would be making all the food that I had in mind for the mini birthday party before school. And that was just the beginning of it all.
.....
There would be all the delicious favorites in the morning. Some presents. Music. All the good stuff that you would have at a birthday party. I knew that Reagan and Rika wouldn’t be able to tell us no if this was how we went about things. They would just need to grin and bear it. Not only that, but the happy looks on Zachary, Zander, Zayden and Zaley’s faces will make it all worthwhile to them. All good there.
After I spoke with Abigail about the food, and had mom and dad on board with all the presents already wrapped and hidden for Friday morning, it was time for me to plan the other parts of that day. Or rather, for that weekend. I mean, with them being twins, and them having different birthdays, the way that I saw it, they both had both days as their birthday. Weren’t they lucky? They got to have two different days to celebrate when other people only got one.
Well, I called all of their friends, at least the close ones that I knew the numbers of. I knew that neither of them would want to have a big celebration that would distract the whole family, the pack, or the locals from the kingdom. They would want something that would be more subdued. And that was exactly what I was going to give them.
Two different celebrations for two different people. Two very secret operations that were going to be running in tandem. It was all quite exciting, and I just couldn’t wait to see how happy they were about all of this. Yeah, they might be annoyed at first, but they would get over it and then they would be able to relax and have some fun.
