Love Is Because It's Ordinary

First Birthday

The day went by unnoticed by Daisy and Juan. The story of Raffa and Raffi's development is emblazoned on the wall, in a frame. From the photo when the twins started lying on their stomach, crawling and standing. Raffa and Raffi are babies who have fast growth. By nine months old, they were both walking.

Today is the day the three babies are born. Daisy and Juan plan to hold a birthday celebration for Raffa and Raffi. Juan and Daisy also visit their daughter, Reva Princess Zabrani.

"Hello, baby, Mama and Papa are coming. Happy birthday, may you always be happy, dear."

Daisy puts a white rose on Reva's grave. Juan rubbed the grieving wife's shoulders in memory of his daughter while she was alive. Daisy wiped her tears.

"Mama and Papa go home first, we'll come back. Rest in peace" said Daisy. They left the cemetery.

In-house.

"Raffa, Raffi don't run, baby!" shilla shouted as she chased after her two grandchildren. They ran over and hit Denis.

Bruck.

"Be careful, dear, granny's speech, you can't run, ok."

"So," said Raffi, hugging Denis's leg and raising both hands, asking to be carried by Denis.

"O, granddad, ask to be carried, here's grandpa carrying you two!"

Denis holds both of his grandchildren. Raffi and Raffa have not been able to speak fluently, they call Denis with Kaka and Nana for Shilla. Both adorable toddlers are very loved by all residents of the house.

"Nana, baba(bobo)," said Raffi who yawned.

"Dad, please take Raffa and Raffi for a nap" Shilla said.

"Okay, Yes," replied Iyah.

Denis dropped them off and Iyah led them to his room. Shilla continued her work. He was arranging birthday party decorations for his two grandchildren. Denis approached Shilla.

"Where are Daisy and Juan?" Denis sat on the couch.

"Visiting Reva's tomb" replied Shilla.

"Oh," Denis said briefly.

"It's been an hour driving around, but still don't know what to buy, huh!" Daisy breathed a heavy breath.

"What about the cars?" Juan proposes.

"May, than we go home empty-handed."

They decided to buy a car, and asked the store owner to deliver it to the house. Daisy and Juanpun return home. On the way, Daisy's phone vibrates on the car's dashboard.

"Hello, who is this?" Daisy doesn't know the caller's number.

"Hello, Dais, it's me."

"Zahra's? This you?"

"Yes, it's me. I'm only in Indo for one day, so I'd like to see you for a minute."

"Alright, we meet at 'Cafe MT', '" Daisy replied. Their conversation is over.

Daisy asks Juan to drive her to the cafe. After dropping off Daisy in front of the cafe, Juan immediately returned to his office. Daisy hasn't worked in an office clinic since she became pregnant, and she hasn't started working. To replace Daisy, Juan looks for an intern who works for only a few months, then leaves, and is replaced by a new intern.

Juan's reason is that when Daisy is ready to work again, her place remains.

Zahra was waiting in the cafe. He waves when he sees Daisy getting into the cafe.

"Dais, here!" zahra half-screamed.

Daisy turned her head towards the voice and smiled looking at her old friend. Daisy approaches, she is greeted by Zahra's embrace.

"Za, geez, what a miss."

"Me too" said Zahra.

They sit down for lunch. They talk, talk about the past and the present. Zahra to Indo represents Roni's company which is starting to spread its wings. Roni opened a small advertising company after graduating from college, a year later she married Zahra. Because Roni opened an advertising company in Singapore, after her marriage Roni took Zahra with her.
