Cold Showers — Chapter 79

Just as she had anticipated, Jayda made sure she filled her fridge with Ice cream and chocolates so she would have something to personally celebrate her birthday with.

The last thing she remembered before she fell asleep was that the next day was Saturday, her birthday and she was going to sleep to her satisfaction and probably wake up at noon.

Unfortunately, someone decided to spoil that plan by showering kisses all over her face, disturbing her sleep.

"Lily, I told you not to come over until 5 in the evening. Why are you here this early?" Jayda mumbled tiredly, not opening her eyes.

Lily did not reply and neither did the person showering kisses on her face stop. Jayda groaned, burying her face deeper into the pillow.

She heard a familiar chuckle, followed by a very familiar voice whispering in her ear. "Happy Birthday, my love."

Jayda's eyes flung open. She smiled as she came face to face with Sebastian.

Seb reached for her hands and kissed it. "I wish you long life and prosperity, good health, more riches, more happiness and every other thing you could ever wish for."

"Thank you," Jayda said with smiles.

Sebastian leaned closer to her and kissed her forehead.

"Thanks for surprising me with your presence. I'm happy to see you here but how did you get in?" Jayda asked curiously.

"Lilian gave me her key to your apartment." He said.

"I have a surprise for you."

"Okay?!!" Jayda said, sitting up, anticipating what he had gotten her.

Sebastian rose to his feet and reached for the cake that was on the nightstand. Jayda's heart melted. Aside from the cake, there was also a gift bag which she was sure was also for her.

Sebastian handed the cake to Jayda who looked at it adoringly.

"Thank you." She said as she accepted the medium size cake.

Seb nervously scratched the back of his neck as he spoke. "I had wanted to add some candles so you'll make a wish but I really do not want to overdo the surprise."

Jayda smiled. "It's fine. I already have all I could ever think of. I have you; the love of my life, I have our little miracle growing inside of me, I have Aaron, I have my parents, family, friends and I have a successful career. God has truly blessed me."

Sebastian placed a kiss on her lips. He handed her a knife and she was able to cut the cake. Seb brought out his phone and took pictures of Jayda and her cake.

She ate a few pieces and also fed Sebastian some.

"This cake is really good." Jayda complimented with a mouth full of cake.

"I knew you would love it. It's from Cakes & Creme." Sebastian said proudly. They both ate a few more pieces before they decided they'd eaten enough for the meantime.

Sebastian collected the remaining cake and placed it aside.

He reached for a gift bag on the nightstand and handed it to Jayda. "I hope you love it."

"Thanks." Jayda smiled at Seb. She wasn't even halfway through her birthday yet and she already concluded that this was the best birthday ever. She was happy Sebastian came over to her place to start her day with her. She considered herself extremely blessed to have him.

Jayda had smiles on her face as she reached for the items in the gift bag.

It was hard for Sebastian to pick out a present for her because no amount of gifts in the world could quantify his love for her. But he hoped she loved what he bought for her.

Jayda brought out a jewellery box, a birthday card and an envelope.

She decided to open the Jewelry box first and when she did, tears welled up in her eyes.
