Forced Marriage With Crush

Chapter 12 Birthday Cake

"Gue listen" said Arsen, looking at Aliza

"Look?"

"Listen you're not saying it clearly."

Aliza threw a sharp glint at Arsen who was acting casual.

Whereas earlier. His voice seemed choked. Afraid that Arsen would actually hear her words.

"My order is ready, Mba?" aliza asked the employee.

He asked to make a special birthday cake for Arsen. Yes, today is the day that a friendly man was born.

Aliza was very impatient to give this cake to Arsen.

A simple cake with a blend of colors that are not flashy but look good.

"Oh. Yes, Mom. I'll get it for a second, Mom." The employee walked inside and returned with a white box in his hand.

"Mba Devi didn't leave today?" aliza asked her employee, who had only been working for a month at the bakery.

The officer nodded. "Not yet, it hurts she said, Mom."

"Yes, he gave me permission. Who is baking who? Is there a delivery order today?"

Devi is a long-time employee who has worked with him. Usually Devi is the one who will deliver if there is a delivery order.

The Aliza bakery can indeed accept delivery orders.

"She, Mom." The employee nodded while checking the buyer's address.

"The address is in the restaurant, ma'am," he explained.

Aliza looked at her address in detail and happened to be going through the same path.

"What is this delivery?" ask Aliza.

The officer nodded. "Yes, stay this way, ma'am."

"I am the one who is anther. I passed this address."

The employee simply nodded in accordance with what Aliza said.

After arriving at the parking lot Aliza took the initiative to call Arsen because he was going to the man's house to give a surprise.

However, her phone is not picked up and Aliza decides to go straight to her house.

After Aliza placed the cake next to her safely and the girl grabbed the paper bag containing the watch. Aliza wants to give this gift to Arsen. Although only simple, he hopes this small object is very useful for Arsen.

Arriving Aliza at the restaurant corresponding to the address of the buyer. When he got out of the car, there was a car that stole his attention.

The white car was like Arsen's. Is Arsen really here?

Was he in a meeting until he could not pick up the phone.

However, Aliza dismissed her assumptions.

Aliza stepped in and it turned out that the long-haired girl was tied back in half while waiting for her.

Aliza just realized that her name is like the name of Arsen's girlfriend. To be honest, Aliza only knows the girl's name.

"Yes, Mba. How long is it? I have been waiting for you." Risa immediately took the white box from Aliza's hand.

"I'm sorry for the inconvenience. There was a little obstacle so late," explained Aliza and then smiled sweetly.

Aliza felt bad for her customers.

"Yes, no papa. I have transferred money." Risa just walked in without waiting for Aliza's answer.

Aliza breathed tired.

Actually, he was only 5 minutes late. His name is too late too.

Before Aliza intended to leave the place she saw Arsen who was sitting staring at Risa who brought a birthday cake for Arsen.

Arsen's happy face makes Aliza happy too.

That smile began to appear.

His heart seemed to be sliced, so sore.

His breathing began to disorganize, his chest rose and fell, his eyes were already teary.

Until Arsen's eyes meet Aliza. They stared for 5 seconds until Aliza turned her face away.

He could no longer bear to see their happiness. Just tell me this is lebay. But that's how it is. He's not strong anymore. If he stays here, it's the same as keeping the pain. That's why Aliza better get going.

"Aliza." Ema walked over to the long-haired, slightly brownish woman who was already sitting on the living room sofa.

"Why, Al? How come you didn't tell me, Mother?" ask Ema then sat down after shaking hands with her future daughter-in-law.

Aliza smiled. "Aliza would like to surprise Arsen, Bun."

"What surprise is that?" asked Ema frowned.

"What day did you forget today?" Aliza looked at Ema in disbelief.

In his mind is it possible that a mother forgets the date of birth of her own child?

"Sunday. Mother did not forget. Today is Arsen's birthday" Ema explained.

"Oh. Aliza thinks Mother forgot."

"Yes not papa. Which mother may have forgotten Arsen's date of birth." Ema showed such a sweet smile.

"But Arsen is no longer home."

"Where's Brother Arsen, Bun?"

"There are still meetings in the office" explained Ema. Inevitably the middle-aged woman had to look for an excuse.

Aliza glanced at the wall clock that showed at 5 p.m. Arsen usually comes home at this hour.

Why did Arsen lie to his mother?

He was in a restaurant with his girlfriend.
