"Another Year Older" by qeenoneo
Virtuze knew that his birthday was creeping up on him, and that within no time the day would soon be upon him. His siblings would always come and sing Happy Birthday so loud, and he would strain a smile as he loved them so dearly. Virtuze did not like to celebrate his birthday, and he seemed to dislike it more and more every year. This year will be no different, he was certain.
It was the day before the dreaded day, but he was trying to not let it occupy his mind. He had errands to run around Neopia Central and had to stop at a few shops to collect some things for Mother. He also knew that Trysks was working at Cog’s Togs today so he might even stop in there to keep his mind distracted and his day full.
His first stop was the Book Shop, where Mother had asked for 3 books. It would have helped if she was a little more specific because he had no idea what she was actually wanting.
“Any 3 will do, you pick for me!” she said to him before he set out for the day. Not helpful at all.
The shop was empty when he arrived, but there were some Neopians around waiting for it to restock. He found a quiet spot to sit down while he waited. He watched the others and felt himself looking at their colourful customisations, with thoughts creeping in that he was finding hard to keep away.
