I'm 100% certain that your birthday party is going to be a lot grander.
[ Wait. Her party isn't a surprise, right? RIGHT??? ]
I do have one more thing to give you, though.
[ She reaches for a small box by her drawer and hands it to Ruby. Unlike the lavish decor in the room, this one is a simple black box. It's not much, but it's a rose hair pin! ]
