I mean, it's not a big deal. It wasn't supposed t'be. I didn't get you a present cuz I thought you had a shitty childhood, it's just -- nice to be remembered, especially on your birthday, right? Even if it isn't technically your birthday anymore...

[with a pause, he seems to finally land onto a more calm aspect of speaking, without the exaggerated inflections or the quick speech] I get it. I never got to celebrate my birthday until I met people who really cared about me and went out of their way to find out about it, when I was sixteen. Even if it's stupid or childish, I don't want others to feel like they don't matter due to no one recognizing them on their birthdays.
