Chapter 26 - Our Rebirth as Mortals (ep 26)

By the time, with finding a very safe moment, Hunas took the mud cake, threw it out and put a real cake on the bed. After the song ended, the kids took their wooden knife which was folded in a dirty cloth. They gave it to Mio and said, "uncle! uncle! cut the cake, the candle ish muelting!!!". Mio gave the wooden knife to Liang and asked for a real knife to him, but Liang refused.

He gave back the knife and said "let's hold the knife together instead give you the whole sharp edge knife to yourself", Mio puffed his cheeks and pouted with a frown, he said "I know I did wrong, and I would not do it again promise". He knew that Liang wasn't going to trust him because of what he did a few moments ago, he added "you can trust me I won't do it again". Liang thought for a minute and frowned. he said, "so you don't want to hold my hands?... mio didn't new that Liang could be this bold sometimes. He moved his head and said "y...yes,why not...",mio muttered [you can't say it saying] while agreeing to him his checks turned red like a tomato and the tip of his scale turned a bit pinkish

They both held their hands and the moment they blew the candle out and cut the cake, everyone started to sing a mix of happy birthday and get well soon song. Mio totally forgot that it's his birthday, he was so surprised with all of this that he had no words.

He ran towards the kids and in his wide open arms, he gave them a very big hug, the kids patted on his hand and said "it'sh a very happy biurthday to you, bwt whee can't bweath!!!". He let the kids go and kissed their foreheads.

Sung-jin didn't like it, he wiped his forehead and muttred", Now my head is wet...", mio kissed his forehead again. After celebrating, hunas went to prepare dinner and took his kids with him so that they could give them both space to talk.

When every one left the room, silence took over the room for almost thirty min, none of them could gather the courage to speak first or knew what to say.

Liang broke the Silence and said, "I didn't know that they already prepared your birthday surprise". He opened the trunk which was in the very corner of the room and took a box out of it. It was a very plain wooden Box with a lock on it which had a ring pattern which was made with wood that was a shade darker than the colour of the box, making it looks suspicious yet magnificent. Mio asked him whether he can open. Liang gave a smile to him and said "yes you can open it. There is nothing harmful in it".

Mio opened the box. The inside of the box was sparkly & shiny, he had to squint his eyes to see what is inside the box. It was very hard to see so he turned down the box and drop everything on the bed, but later realized that it is not the box which was glowing, but rather it's the stuff inside.
