"Silly, it's not Mia's Birthday." I whisper-yelled with a roll of my eyes.
"Oh, yeah. Sorry, again. I'm just too excited, so it's making me confused."
I glanced at the small cake in her hands then back at her face. "Be sensible."
She rolled her eyes. " Whatever. Don't forget; Mom, not Mia."
"Yeah, right."
"Be sensible." She added.
I turned the doorknob and pushed the door inwards, walking in first with Lila following behind me.
"Happy Recovery!" I said at the same time Lila said—
—"Happy Birthday!"
Mia, who was seated on the bed, chuckled.
"Lila," I glared at her.
"Sorry, sorry, whatever." She walked past me and to Mia on the bed, arching her back to kiss Mia's cheek.
