"Sleep anyway!" joi grumbled as her feet stepped into the restaurant promised by her brother. Joi turned to the left-right to find the location of the table that if it shows the existence of the brother who he said was already in place, but nil. All the tables were uninhabited, only a few there were plates, spoons and glasses neatly arranged on the tables. Whether the restaurant was booked by someone, so the brother was forced to move without having to tell him.
Joi grabs her phone in a bag, then presses her sister's number. And nil, Delia did not answer it even though it was connected. Whether her brother was on his way to a new restaurant, he thought he was trying to guess.
"Excuse me mbak? yes, Joice?" a waitress approached Joi who looked confused.
"Did? yes mba? I had a promise with my brother here, he said he was on the spot. That means my brother was here, but now there's nothing. Did a woman leave a message or something?" Joi again spread her gaze around the corner of the restaurant. Like her there is indeed an event in this place, in view of every table that has been arranged in such a way.
"Oh? mbak Delia huh?" ask waitress smiling kindly.
"Yes, right." Joi answered the question quickly to get out of there, it was a shame to think she was in the middle of someone else's party.
"So her mom Delia advised, if any of her sister came here, welcome to...." Blepp
"Hey! this is the light why the gini goes out anyway! a 5-star restaurant but forgot to pay for electricity? oh my God! His accounting must be corruption, this must be!" Joi is excited, because he is very paranoid about the dark.
"Mr? mba? kok diem, mbak please dong, the electricity is paid first. I'm afraid this dark, the joke isn't funny!" Joi began to lose her image, her stupid thought, especially considering the condition of the restaurant that was deserted, and there was only one cashier and a waitress who was now out of nowhere.
Click, the sound of the button on the lights and the atmosphere so bright, Joi is still in shock mode. Moreover, it looks like all his family members are there. Her husband had no news all day, then the children who were indifferent to her today. Joi wants to scream hysterically for being too happy.
"Happy birthday, mimi!" exclaim to the nine children of Joi while scrambling ahead of each other who first reached the mother.
Joi was almost unsteady when she got a hug attack from her children. Her tears shed unstoppably again, her mouth muffled. No word can express how happy and perfect the life of a Joice Justin Wardhani is. Getting married at an early age and having 9 children was not his dream. Not even thinking, but God's incredible destiny, brought Joi to stand at the height of her peerless happiness.
"Thank you!" those are the only words he can say. Simple words that represent all tastes, simple words that have many meanings and simple words that are able to change the perception of the world. Joi's small world centers on the lives of her children and her husband. He never had the slightest reason not to be happy.
"Gantian dong, his wife didi nih." Jovan sewot. Instantly the atmosphere of the haru turned into a fierce-criticism, between Jovan and his children. Joi chuckles amusedly, then breaks a hug from her children's confinement.
"sorry. Happy anniversary, healthy always, the more dear the children especially didi. Never turn to another man, love your husband until the end of your life. I love you, my beautiful wife" Jovan kissed Joi's forehead while shedding tears. 19 years of being a married couple, did not make Jovan's love shrink. It even grows more fertile every day.
"Thank you, dear didi. I love you more" when going to fight lips, the sound of intrusion of the vandals began to understate.
"Can't her romantic moments be delayed first? laper nih, this candle has also been extinguished by itself, so long as to wait in the inflatable not too." Oceh Dimas ruined the atmosphere. Jovan is upset.
"Basic bullies! Assistant no morals! This month there is no bonus, salary is cut by 10 percent." Jovan sewot max. Dimas has been his assistant for 15 years. But even so, the two are always involved in a fight every time together in one room. Joi and Iren could only shake their heads, seeing the immature behavior of the two men accompanying their respective ages.
Dimas as if he did not hear, his creative hands were busy picking the fruit on top of Joi's birthday cake without hesitation let alone shame.
"Happy birthday deck, how? succeeded my idea" said Delia proudly, and managed to get a small pinch on her nose by a husband who was no less bucin than Didi Jovan.
The simple Jovan version of the event, which lasted until midnight. They only invited a few close friends, the rest of the nuclear family only. Edwin and Amelia were called home in a fatal accident 5 years ago. The second car was hit by a truck and pushed into the ravine until it exploded. The grief is so deep in the memory of the whole family, especially when they can only bury the body, which is just a piece of the body that is not untukuh. Since then, there is no celebration of anything else they celebrate, except Christmas and Eid which is done just that, to greet each other and gather together. The rest, there will only be happy birthday, also blow candles with each family if there is a birthday.
Amelia and Edwin went home, shortly after celebrating the anniversary of the wedding as well as Amelia's birthday at the top. Both want to remember the moment of youth, by forcing to drive without a driver. But who would have thought, the word home that was said both when going to travel back to the city. It is the true definition of the word home. Return to eternal life and never return, to the family that awaits in the puddles of sorrow and tears of wounds.
This was the first momentum after that fateful incident, it had taken him 5 years to heal each other's heart wounds. Now is the time to move forward to bring happiness. Starting from a Joi, then followed by other celebrations of happiness in their extended family.
Kirel, Jeslyn, Jevier, Jesen and Debya still live in the ancestral home of their grandfathers and fathers, with their children and grandchildren respectively. The house of Daniel's legacy becomes even bigger, because it continues to be added, both backwards and upwards. While Delia was with her husband in the city, it was still close to the residence of her sister, Joi.
Their familial relationship was so closely intertwined, the grandchildren of their parents' siblings, still firmly connected and inseparable. No matter how far the distance between their lineages, but the sense of mutual affection, protection and care for each other was maintained so firmly.
Keenan, Keyra, Kalla and Kavin. Also Dean and the others, there was never any distance in their kinship relationship. The habit of visiting each other, vacationing together as well as communication that never breaks, making their relationship far from awkward and indifferent.
