They brought the cake over, lit the sparklers, and the entire restaurant staff started singing as if it were the birthday of the year. He just rested his head on his hand and looked at the cake the way someone watches rain on any random Tuesday.
It happened at a Spur Steak Ranches location in South Africa; the video recorded by user @sibongaxaba1 was immortalized. While the adults around him clapped and smiled, the boy didn’t move a single eyebrow. He didn’t blow out the candles, didn’t pretend to be happy, and didn’t indulge anyone.
The theories multiplied quickly. That he was exhausted, that he hated being the center of attention, that he had simply already had enough cake in his short life. The truth is that his face ended up going around the world as the perfect summary of those birthdays where the guest of honor would rather be anywhere else.
