The Journey of Love Habibah..
Birthday is effective
One day before the anniversary celebration, Habibah was really busy preparing an order made by Purnomo. His mother helped him, and so did his sister Dona. They make beautiful tart cakes, the cake has two levels decorated with pink decorations decorated with some cute flowers. Pink is her daughter's favorite color. On top of the inscription of the name of Nur Laily Putri made of sweet chocolate. In the middle there is a beautiful pink dress princess statue as well, and everything is edible. After being checked and examined repeatedly finally the birthday cake was put into the refrigerator first, so that the decoration on the cake did not change shape and damaged. After the Ashar prayer, Habibah laid his body on his favorite bed to prepare energy for the night. Because at night Habibah had to make some cakes requested by Purnomo for a guest banquet.
In the evening assisted by his younger siblings, Habibah continued his work. While his mother took care of Zain who was slightly neglected by Habibah because of his busyness. After Zain finished dinner and slept, his mother helped him cook for his catering. All worked together to prepare a sizeable order for them. Because as long as Habibah opened his business in the village, only this time he got a large order like this. Usually even though there are catering, which order cakes not as much as this and rarely also coincide with the birthday cake order. But this time, the order he received simultaneously. Their work was completed at 2:30 a.m. After that they rest for a while before the dawn prayer comes. The new sleep of an hour and a half was forced to be disturbed by the sound coming from the mosque which was not far from the house of Habibah. It was about a hundred meters from his house.
After the dawn prayer, Habibah continued his work to begin packing his catering which happened to be Purnomo asking for a buffet only. Starting from plates, spoons and forks as well as small plates he has arranged in place so that later easy when carrying it. Habibah also washed some types of fruits that will be provided at the buffet table later, then arrange them in fruit baskets that have been beautifully decorated. After it was felt to have been completed perfectly, Habibah rushed to clean himself and change his clothes with clothes that were better than what he wore last night. After finishing with himself, Habibah immediately went into his room and woke up Zain who was still feeling lazy to wake up.
" Dear Uma.ayo wake up. It's noon, baby.. Uma wants to take the cake, does Adek want to come? There are a lot of balloons, do you want a balloon? If Adek gets up and takes a shower, Uma will give him one balloon. how?" Layu Habibah on Zain who still looks reluctant to open his eyes.
" Want Uma balloon, Zain wants balloon..! Red color is Uma..?" zain finally while moving from his bed and immediately pulled Habibah's hand to bathe him immediately. Habibah could only smile at his son's funny behavior.
At 6.30 Habibah has been busy carrying Purnomo's order to his house using his father's pick-up car which was forced to be hijacked first before the garden by his father. For some reason he suddenly felt very excited about his work. Arriving in the courtyard of his house Purnomo, Habibah stepped his feet rather heavily towards the door of the house that was still closed.
" Yes..!!" habibah cried out his greetings while knocking on the door of the house several times.
" Wa'alaykumussalam warrahmatullah wabarokaatuh..!!" someone from inside the house was heard approaching to open the door.
" Uh. Brother Habibah .. Maass.. brother Bibah came between his orders." exclaimed his brother to tell Purnomo if Habibah had come to deliver the order. Purnomo who heard his sister mention the name Habibah immediately ran to get to him, but he had not yet reached the doorway he stopped his steps and pressed his chest which suddenly rumbled erratically. Like the son of ABG who is kasmaran only. He tried to calm himself, after feeling calmer then he approached Habibah who had now finished lowering all Purnomo orders from the pick up car that carried him.
" I'm sorry..Where does all this go?" asked Habibah who surprised Purnomo who was watching Habibah arrange the inn.
" Oh.yeah.it buffet table has been provided, just laid out there. And for the cake just put it on the table, while for the cake the dish can be placed here." Purnomo answered while helping Habibah and Dona who were arranging everything as instructed by Purnomo earlier. After everything was finished, Habibah intended to go home but was prevented by Purnomo.
" Do you not want to attend my son's birthday ceremony? I'm sure my son would be happy if he met you. Please wait a minute, I'll call him first. Understand the girl, must be groomed first." grin Purnomo while passing from before Habibah and enter his room where the princess is dressing up.
" Dear.do not long dong dandannya.ome wait outside.." said Purnomo when he saw his favorite child was still look confused with his dress. Sofia's mother in the room just smiled at her granddaughter's behavior. But for the sake of hearing there is someone who wants to meet his grandson, inevitably sofiapun mother also responded.
" Who wants to meet my granddaughter? Tumben somebody wants to see him." said Sofia's mother.
" yes ma.. Nur was out to see him, " replied Purnomo.
" Yes ma.. Come on, let's get out now. Don't let him leave in time" said Purnomo again. What turned out to be the words of Purnomo was like a commando who immediately moved their legs to get out of his room.
In the guest room Habibah seemed to still stand waiting with an uncertain feeling. He didn't know if he really should stay or leave. Moments later he sees Purnomo back with his mother and daughter.
" Ohaha..!" exclaimed Sofia's mother while hugging Habibah's tiny body. Habibah can only resigned hugged by Sofia's mother. While Nur Laily Putri just dumbfounded to see his grandmother's behavior. He had already forgotten about Habibah, but that familiar feeling was still in his heart.
" Hey Auntie.." said to Habibah.
" Hi Nur. Can Aunt call him by that name?" ask Habibah.
" Yes sure.. Papa also called by that name, so it's okay if Auntie also likes." he replied.
" You are so beautiful today, happy birthday dear.sorry Auntie does not have a good gift for you" Habibah said, handing her a box.
" Thank you Aunt.. A gift from Aunt must be good." she replied with her cute style.
" Oh, baby, look at your birthday cake.. It was made by Auntie Nur.." suddenly Purnomo interrupted the chat of two people he called by the same name, the little Nur who heard it spontaneously turned his head towards his father's hand and pointed.
" Waaahhh....! It's beautiful..!! That's really the aunt who made it ?!" tanya nur petite enthusiastic. He was very happy to see Habibah's cake decorated so beautifully using his favorite color. He embraced Habibah and kissed Habibah's cheeks covered by a veil. Habibah was stunned by the reaction of the little nur to her. Dona who stood a little far from Habibah could only plainly witness the unusual sight. He did not expect that Purnomo's son would behave as sweet as that to his brother. While Zain was playing with some children who did start to arrive to attend the birthday party of his son Purnomo. His birthday starts at 8:30 a.m.
The birthday party was lively, as lively as the feelings of some people who were there. Purnomo could not stop not to pay attention to Habibah who was forced to stay at the request of his daughter. Little Nur felt to find a mother figure in Habibah. Habibah who was sitting next to little Nur with Zain who was playing with his balloon did not realize that Purnomo was staring at him for a long time. She felt that her daughter's birthday was very memorable in her heart. He had completely forgotten that back then he was no longer an ABG child in love, but an adult man who had fallen in love many times with the same person.
