The triplets may not understand what was going on or why everyone was having fun, but Cayenne was very happy to see that her guests were having a blast.
Her vlogging account has become a memory bank for her now. All sorts of videos were uploaded there and that goes without saying includes the party for the triplets.
MC: I know you guys are having so much fun teasing our participants during the games, but don't laugh too hard, you may be the next person I pick to play the game.
"Noooooo, don' wanna," Luiz responded and even made face as if he was really against the idea.
Well, partially, he wasn't happy about it because he can't participate with Clarisse. It was no fun being paired with someone else.
MC: It's okay. Miss Yen said you can't be included for reputation purposes.
Luiz: ????
As he was contemplating the difficulty of having a love life, others jeered at him. It was really a jab on him.
MC: Anyway, let's take a pause from all the games as you are all enjoying your food and drinks. This time, let us all see what gifts do we have for the triplets. Miss Yen and Sir Stefan, can you come over and open some of the gifts?
"Sure," Cayenne answered excitedly as she pulled her husband to the table of gifts. "Who doesn't get excited to open gifts? It may not be for me, but I'd like to see what my kids got."
"Material things aren't really important. It's the thought that counts," Stefan added nonchalantly but he was really hoping for something.
"Don't worry Stefan, we got your back!" Riley yelled in response which got everyone laughing knowingly.
"Then, let's open your gifts first," Stefan said and started looking for Riley's gift but there was a pile of them on the table, he didn't know where to start looking. "Never mind. Let's see what we can pick first."
MC: Let's start with the small ones.
"I'm wondering what could fit such small boxes, too" Cayenne said as she picked a small gift box next to her. "This is from my Dad," she muttered and a feeling of deja vu enveloped her.
"Is that what I think it is?" asked Monet when she caught a glimpse of the gift.
"He's trying his best to mend their relationship thru the kids - a smart move," Thomas added.
With gaping mouth, Cayenne thought of buying a safety vault for several gifts that she has including the ones that her children received today.
"Thank you, grandpa" Stefan expressed and Ferdinand smiled happily. It wad the first time that Stefan thanked him sincerely.
Later on, this birthday party will become the talk of the town because of the gifts that the kids received, but that is a story for later.
They continued to open gifts and this time Cayenne picked up the one from David and Kai.
"Finally, I got something normal," Cayenne stated and pulled out three sets of clothes.
"I designed them myself," David said which wiped the smile on Cayenne's face. "Once they've grown out of it, you can auction it for a cause. See? I thought of dual purpose."
"Yeah. Thank you," Cayenne responded and felt that she didn't want a birthday like this. Her children can't appreciate the gifts yet. There was no point in giving them expensive stuff. Stay connected via m-v l|e'-novelhall.net
"I promise I didn't bring anything more than $500," Luna said when she saw her friend's expression.
"I got them three shirts on discounts," Kath added.
"I made a painting of the triplets," Jackie stated with a faint smile on her face. She could totally understand Cayenne's dilemma.
If you give something valuable to someone who grew up from a poor family, she will be happy but she would also feel a lot of pressure to repay the person with the same value as the gift.
After opening ten gifts, with seven of them being so expensive that she couldn't seem to just put it back on the table, worried that they'd be damaged; Cayenne finally had to give a disclaimer statement for everyone who might watch her video in the next few days.
It wasn't her intention to show off.
