RAMADAN IN RAYYA'S HEART

Unboxing

Rayya immediately went back in the mirror before opening the door because there was someone knocking on the door of her room accompanied by the sound of a bell, because she did not want to look like she was crying. After he made sure not to be too puffy he then immediately opened the door.

" Good night, Miss Rayya. Sorry distracting. This is a gift from a friend of Miss." A female employee of Dad David's hotel handed Rayya a paper bag.

" My friend, Ma'am?" Rayya frowned because all the gifts seemed to have been received.

" So he told security his name was Raffa. She can't go inside because she doesn't show you the invitation card, Miss." The officer explained.

" Brother Raffa?" Rayya then received the paper bag offered to her. He did not invite Raffasya at his birthday party because it would definitely be strictly forbidden by his Daddy.

" Thank you, Ma'am." said Rayya.

" All the same, Miss. Excuse me ..." The hotel staff then left Rayya.

Rayya then put the paper bag on the sofa and he went to the contest because he wanted to immediately rest his body and mind.

The next morning after Gavin and Azzahra's extended family finished breakfast together, the rest of the family had already returned to their respective places. Abi and Umi Rara return to Bogor, as well as Dad David and Aunt Linda have returned home.

Azzahra himself has gone home with Rashya and Raihan. Gavin was in his office at the hotel because there were some tasks that were delayed yesterday that had to be completed immediately. Rayya himself is still at the hotel because in addition to her waiting for her Daddy job to finish, she also still wants to talk to William who will return to Singapore this afternoon.

" Sister Willy in a hurry to get home? Though Rayya still wants to chat with Big Brother," regretted Rayya because she had to part back with her older brother.

" Sister has to go to college and work too" Willy said, packing his clothes into his suitcase.

" Why did Willy go to college while working? If Brother Willy needs money, why didn't Brother Willy ask Daddy? So you can focus on college." Rayya was surprised, because William in addition to college he also worked as News Anchor at a private television station in Singapore.

" As a man, you must learn to live independently and not depend on your parents. Even though Dad Gavin and Grandpa have a lot of money but Big Brother does not want to use that to sustain Big Brother's life in the future" Willy said.

Rayya smiled proudly at William's spirit.

" Sister, if Rayya graduates from school later, Rayya also wants to study at the campus Brother, deh."

William turned his head towards Rayya who was sitting on the edge of the bed watching himself packing clothes.

" Daddy gave you permission, Baby?" ledek William while scrambling Rayya's hair. William knows that Gavin is very possessive of Rayya. Because Rayya is the only daughter among Gavin's four children including himself.

" Sister Willy don't follow Daddy call that Baby, huh! Rayya was embarrassed if called Baby continues with Daddy, especially if in front of Rayya's friends," protested Rayya while blinking her lips.

" That's Daddy's favorite call for Rayya." William smiled wryly.

" But later when Rayya went to college there, Rayya went to live with Willy, huh?" Rayya returned to the topic of conversation about his desire to continue studying in Singapore.

" The matter of staying with Big Brother is easy, the problem is Daddy will give permission or not? Not just Dad Gavin, Auntie Rara also does not necessarily agree far from you, Rayya." William argued.

" But Rayya also wants to study independently, Sister. Like Brother Willy." Rayya felt motivated by the principles that her brother lived.

" Your brother is different Rayya." William patted Rayya on the shoulder. " The brother is a boy, has responsibility towards the brothers especially from Dad Peter. Brother will also have responsibilities to the family if you get married. Different from you women. You can simply wait for a deposit from your husband if you are married." William chuckles.

" What the hell, Brother. A little girl also talked about marriage. High School is not over yet." Rayya returned to throbbing.

" Oh yeah, you've got a girlfriend yet?" ask William later.

" Rayya wants to focus on school first, sister. Besides Daddy's definitely not giving Rayya permission to date first, brother." Rayya explained.

" But there's a guy Rayya likes?"

" Nothing." Rayya walked towards the balcony. Rayya did not want William to pry more details about his romance. " Oh yeah, brother's coming home at what time?" ask Rayya.

" Even eleven fifteen minutes."

" Yes, that's why I want to say goodbye to Daddy first."

" Yes, let me take you, brother." Rayya went back inside and took William to Gavin's office at the hotel.

Azkia helps Rayya unboxing gifts from invited guests who were present at Rayya's birthday party last night.

Azkia knitted her brows as she opened the greeting card that was in one of the paper bags.

" What did you invite, Ray?" ask Azkia later.

" Who is that, Kia?" Rayya did not understand the meaning of Kia's words.

" Who else if not your admirer, Ray?" Azkia chuckled as she offered the greeting card she had read to Rayya.

" Oh, Mr. Raffa .. last night Daddy's hotel attendee had to take this to Rayya, saying he was from Raffa's sister who was not allowed to enter because she did not bring an invitation."

" Wuih .. love her ring. Want to apply directly?" Azkia laughed again. " But the ring is good." Azkia then put the ring onto her own finger.

" Eh, well .. how difficult is it to remove, anyway?" Azkia struggled when she wanted to get the ring out of her ring finger.

" Here Rayya help." Rayya then tries to help Azkia remove the ring from Azkia's finger.

" Aawww is sick, Ray!" azkia moans as Rayya tries to remove the ring.

" hurt, huh? Yes, then the ring for Kia only, deh. Think of it as a bonus because bring gifts to the house last night," said Rayya giggled.

" Idiihh, really wear goods from Kak Raffa." Azkia rolled her eyeballs.

Azkia's words suddenly made Rayya chuckle.

" Ogah but why was this worn? It's difficult to release again," said Rayya was happy. Because rarely did he find a moment like this, could bully his cousin.

" That was just a prank. It looks good, what if it's used? Uh, it can't even be removed." Azkia forced the ring off.

" Don't be forced to, Kia. It hurts his finger. It's been used by Kia. Nice to have her ring worn with Kia."

" No, thank you. Later Raffa is sad, you know, the ring he chose for Baby is loved to Kia." Azkia then managed to pull out the ring from her finger with great difficulty.

" Now, just use you, Ray. let Brother Raffa be happy." Azkia chuckled then got up then walked towards the door of Rayya's room.

" Will Kia come home?" rayya asked to see Azkia coming out of her room.

" No, go to the kitchen. Want to ask for a snack with Auntie Rara," said Azkia breezed out of Rayya's room.
