Today was Kokichi's birthday! Well, not that anyone cared. he was walking around the cafeteria, waiting for atleast one birthday wish, and... nothing. No one remembered...?

"The hell are you talking about shrimp?" Rang from Kaito as Kokichi tried to even talk to him and Maki

"What do you want now?" Kirumi asked, it was stern but not mean

"I hope its not one of your robophobic remarks" Kiibo said, annoyed already with just his presence

Kokichi just shut up and wandered back to his room "...I knew no one would care anyway, I guess its what i get after all" *He sighed and laid down,exhausted from disappointment, falling asleep for a little.

When he awoke his thoughts wandered to Shuichi, who was usually his only company.

He wandered to Shuichi's room and gave a small knock, a sour taste remaining on his tongue from earlier. "...Shumai? you there?" Shuichi opened the door and gave a small smile

"oh! Kokichi! come in, I was looking for you earlier." Shuichi took his arm and pulled him inside, he grabbed a small box and sat next to Kokichi on the bed, handing it to him "...It's... not much, but I thought you'd like it, happy birthday Kokichi..." Shuichi said softly

Kokichi softened, he felt like he could cry. he held the box to his heart, not ready to open it "...oh Shuichi... i thought everyone forgot about me... i guess you really are the greatest little detective..."
