Chapter 1: A Simple Birthday Plan
The six friends gathered to plan Meera's birthday. No big party, no loud music—just a small cake and time together. None of them knew this cake would become unforgettable.
Chapter 2: The Old Bakery
They chose an old bakery at the corner of the street. The baker smiled sadly and said, "This is my last bunch of cake today." His words felt heavier than expected.
Chapter 3: One Cake, Six Plates
The cake was small—too small for six people. Laughter slowly turned into silence as they wondered how to divide it fairly.
Chapter 4: Memories on the Table
As the cake rested untouched, memories flowed—school fights, shared lunches, secret tears, and promises made years ago.
Chapter 5: Meera's Hidden Tears
Meera quietly wiped her eyes. This birthday felt different. Something inside her knew change was coming.
Chapter 6: The Unspoken Truth
Anaya finally spoke—Dev was moving to another city for college. The group froze. The cake suddenly felt like a goodbye.
Chapter 7: Laughter to Hide Pain
Kabir cracked jokes, forcing smiles. But everyone knew laughter couldn't stop time.
Chapter 8: The First Cut
Riya cut the cake carefully. Each slice was uneven, just like their emotions.
Chapter 9: Sharing More Than Cake
They shared stories instead of complaining about the size. Every bite tasted like friendship.
Chapter 10: The Last Piece
One small piece remained. No one wanted it. That final piece carried all their love.
Chapter 11: A Selfless Choice
Dev pushed the plate toward the center. "Let's not eat it," he said. "Let it remind us of today."
Chapter 12: A Promise Made
They promised to meet every year, no matter how far life took them. Hands stacked, eyes shining.
Chapter 13: The Night Walk
They walked home together, quieter than usual, understanding that growing up meant learning to let go.
Chapter 14: Years Later
Life changed. Careers, cities, responsibilities—but the memory of the last bunch of cake never faded.
Chapter 15: The Reunion
Years later, the six friends met again at the same bakery. This time, there were many cakes—but none as special as the last bunch they never finished.
