*she stood in the center of the large hall, surrounded by bustling men and women, issuing orders and making sure each of the minor details were attended to, the balloons, the streamers, the confetti, the massive amounts of food…*

“And make sure,” she hollered after one of the young men in white that was hurrying to the kitchen, “that someone is set to watch over that punch at all times! We simply can’t have another incident like last time.” She mumbled under her breath, “He’s under age for crying out loud.”

*The lights were tested, the sound system arranged, a large banner was heaved to the rafters that read, “Happy 1 Year, Jojo”*

*slowly the room emptied of the commotion and she was left to look over the brightly lit room one more time. Now, if he was only able to find his way…. Even if he wasn’t, she'd hired a photographer to record the event for him to enjoy when he finally returned. She refused to worry about it. The party was ready for the guests to arrive at will.*

*she placed her gift on the back of the table and left the rest up to the staff she had hired to make sure all his guests were received gracefully and had everything they needed to enjoy themselves was provided them, including the fully stocked wet bar. *

DaRu remembers she forgot to give JoJo the teddy bear brought for him, so she hurries back over and hands it to him, then says, "This is to remember me by, but don't go using it for target practice, "she winks again", "brust into laughter," ... "whacks him on the shoulder", then heads back to drink her punch.

*Pokes her head through the door to gaze at all of the people gathered around to celebrate Jojo's birthday and decides to braven up and make a few rounds around the room*

I know 1 year in RL is very young, but on Sleuth, that makes you ancient! =)

I wasn't sure what to bring so I figured since you love quotes so much I'd offer this instead since getting to read yours are always a nice way to start the day for so many faithful readers. Happy Birthday Jojo!

Kid is seen driving in his sleek hot red ferrari. He spots the address up ahead. He screeches into the parking lot and drifts into a parking spot somehow managing to avoid the many other cars parked there. He grabs several bags and boxes and walks up to the door. Someone rushed out to see what the noise was but kid told them that it was just him driving. He was let inside and saw a big bustling party. He walked over to a table that was piled high with presents and gifts. There wasn't much room left on the table so kid sets the boxes, bags and presents on the floor in front of the table. He then looks around to see who is here. Jojo wasn't here. Not yet anyways. Kid had walked up to everyone introducing himself and telling everyone to have a good time. After it politeness was one of kids favorite skills and he always had to be polite. After he made introductions he made a direct beeline over to the food table and grabbed a plate. He began putting a little bit of everything on the plate. While kid was eating suddenly everyone began talking louder. It seemed that jojo had arrived. Everyone clapped and cheered and sang "Happy 1st birthday jojo!"

Kid walks over to jojo shakes his hand and says "Happy birthday jojo and many many more to come. We've all had a wonderful time preparing this party for you. Lots of presents and gifts for you. Plenty of great food and drink prepared by great chefs. Have a great time jojo!"
