"I'll pass," said Melody uneasily. "It's kind of awkward if I go in. Why don't you go in alone? I'll wait for you here."
Lucas was displeased, evident in his expression. He dragged her out of the car, and they went in together.
Stella had told Lucas through the call that something had gone wrong with the props and that she got injured during filming, so she hoped Lucas could visit her.
Lucas only agreed to visit because she was his friend. However, he worried that Melody might overthink again if she did not go in with him. Hence, he dragged her in so she could see it for herself, saving him the trouble of explaining.
"Lucas..." Melody followed him involuntarily. She immediately tensed up when she imagined how intimate Stella and Lucas were going to be.
Despite her reluctance, Lucas dragged her to the film set anyway. However, the film set was empty and oddly quiet.
'Where is everyone? If someone was injured during filming, the crew should be in chaos now,' thought Lucas as he gazed around puzzledly. He then dragged Melody to Stella's dressing room. "Happy birthday!"
The moment they stepped into the room, countless strips of colored paper fell on them like dreamy snowfall.
Lucas glanced at the people with the party poppers in their hands. All of them were smiling as they congratulated him on his birthday.
"Lucas!" Stella-who was dressed in a pink flowy dress-walked up to Lucas with a cake in her hands. She looked like a princess with her long curled hair hanging loose around her shoulders. "Happy birthday, Lucas!" said Stella.
Lucas looked at her coldly. "Didn't you say you were injured?"
Stella grew flustered when Lucas' reaction was far different from what she assumed. Still, she recovered quickly.
"I wanted to give you a surprise. Look, I ordered a cake just for you! And this is a present I've prepared for you!" Stella looked at the cake in front of her and smiled. "I even drew the boy on the cake myself!" Melody, who stood behind Lucas, peeked at the cake. The boy drawn on the cake was adorable. It had Lucas' eyes.
"Everyone, let's sing him a birthday song!"
On Stella's count, everyone started to sing, "Happy birthday to you, happy birthday to you! Happy birthday to Lucas..."
