A boy wakes up on what he thinks is his birthday, excited to celebrate at Chuck E. Cheese. However, his dad and Chef PeePee, who he claims booked the party, don't seem to care or remember the celebration. Feeling unappreciated, the boy wishes he was never born.
He then finds himself in a strange, heavenly realm, where God shows him what the world would be like if he was never born. In this reality, his friends Joseph and Cody's lives have taken different paths, and his dad, Chef PeePee, and others are affected by his non-existence.
God teaches the boy to appreciate the people in his life and then returns him to his body. When he wakes up, he's at Chuck E. Cheese, where he's told that his birthday is actually the next day. The story ends with the boy looking forward to celebrating his birthday with his loved ones, having learned to appreciate them.
