When they arrived at the restaurant, he was stunned to see his friends, relatives, and cousins gathered, cheering, "Happy Birthday, Angad!" The room was decorated with balloons, a banner reading I Am 13, and a table piled high with gifts. Angad's mother walked up to him with a big smile and a beautiful cake lit with 13 candles. As everyone sang, Angad felt a wave of joy and gratitude. They spent the evening laughing, playing games, and sharing stories. For Angad, turning 13 wasn't just about becoming a teenager-it was about realizing how loved he truly was.
