"EEK" Simon wasn't thinking straight at that moment and was wondering why she wanted to know when his birthday was. "Why do you want to know when my birthday..." Simon started to say then stopped. "Oh yeah right." He smiled at the girl. "it's the 1/5/2060." Simon said as he wrote it down on the paper in front of him.

Cadence continued to smile kindly at the boy as he continued to freak out. When he finally realized what she was asking and wrote down his birthday, though, she looked at the numbers. "Good! You actually have a really easy birthday to do this with, Simon!" she said, touching him comfortingly on the back. "So what you want to do is treat the month number, the day number, and the year as though they're each separate parts of a math problem," she explained and wrote out the numbers underneath what he had written.

Quote:

(1) + (5) + (2060)

"Now, the 1 and the 5 are already simplified as far as they can simplified. All we need to simplify is the year, 2060," she said slowly before writing another line underneath what she had just written. "So, think of it like this."

Quote:

(1) + (5) + (2+0+6+0)

Smiling at him she said, "So, can you simplify the year for me?"

It's the way I've watched you change me from a boy into a man. It's a million things about you, and I don't know what it is. I have never known a love like this.
