The crew of cupcakes quickly gathered their gear of happiness and snuck up behind Preston wearing blissful smiles.
“Surprise!” the cupcakes yelled as sprinkles filled the air like confetti at a concert.
“Ah ... thanks guys. Why don’t you start the party without me?” Preston said timidly.
“Oh, but we are having the party in your honor ’cause it’s Thursday!” Bean reminded him.
“Yeah, it’s in the calendar!” Frenchie cited with her clipboard in hand.
“I know, but, it’s just, well ... yeah, in a moment,” Preston said and without hesitation, the remaining dozen went on to party without him.
As the party came to an end, Preston approached his parents with a solemn face.
“I have something to confess. I’m not like you. I’m not as fun. I like parties and I like sprinkles. I like you. But I can’t pretend. I’ve got glasses, and I’m not made of vanilla, but pumpkin and spices. And I have to admit, sometimes I would rather just watch the fun instead of joining in,” Preston said.
The crowd of cupcakes gasped so hard they nearly sucked the air out of their container.
