"Alright, everyone, listen up," Juliet clapped her hands, capturing everyone's attention. "The guests will be arriving soon, but we need to act like this is just a regular party, not Jungkook's birthday bash. Got it?"
Hoseok playfully chuckled and wrapped his arms around Juliet, teasingly remarking, "Babe, this is the third time you've reminded us. Don't worry everything will go good and smooth."
"I don't want anyone to spoil my brother's special day." Juliet pouted, expressing her genuine concern for ensuring a flawless celebration.
"We understand, Julie," Taehyung chimed in, flashing his signature boxy smile, assuring her that they were on the same page.
Amidst the bustle of organizing the venue and adorning it with Yoongi's meticulously chosen flowers, Aurora found herself seated at the bar counter.
A gentle smile adorned her face as she observed her friends, their joy evident in every action. They had celebrated Jungkook's birthday together for years, but this year, they had crafted a surprise that held an even deeper significance, filling the air with anticipation and meaning.
