Baruna PoVs
I was still in the cafe with my father staring at him. What agreement has actually been agreed? I don't know at all.
"What's Dad's deal for?" many confused.
"Emmm .... In time you will know. I'm sorry I couldn't go around explaining the matter. Your grandfather has the right to explain."
"But Dad already said it and it became a big question mark for me" I said.
"You don't have to worry about the deal. You have to remember Baruna, you are different from Dad. You look more like your loving mother. Put it all right in your head," Dad added, staring reassuringly at me.
I fell silent without thinking, Dad could have switched important talks like this.
Father why did you shift the conversation about the agreement? Of course I can't possibly disappoint Sheryl. She's a woman I love very much.
"Egem .... Ehem ...." The coughed sound I knew suddenly sounded clear from behind us.
My father and I looked back and found Grandpa standing up.
"Baruna, Reza was looking for you. You'd better call him right away" Grandpa said with a slightly raised tone of voice. "Grandfather wants to talk to your father."
I walked up from the chair to the cafe exit. Grandfather's tone of voice that sounded dislikeful if I spoke to Father irritated me a little but I tried to hold it in.
I took the phone in my pocket. Reynand's gift to Sheryl is still there. Yeah, I forgot to give it.
What'd he want to find me? Didn't we meet?
I hurriedly called Reza. Not long after, Reza answered my call.
"Bar, did you forget Sheryl's birthday today?"
"Oh yeah?" I immediately checked the date on my phone that marked his birthday, November 29.
Why am I being this forgetful? Why also my phone alarm does not give notifications?
"So you actually forgot the Bar?"
"I - Yes Za. Totally forgot. I haven't prepared anything for the prize either."
"Waduh Bar, my fiancee forgot my sister's date of birth."
"Yes sorry. I am not focused anymore. I'll go out and find something for a second."
"Yes. Don't you take it long."
"Yes Za."
I turned around to walk out of the car park. Rushed to find something I could buy for my fiance's birthday present.
My phone is ringing, I see my phone screen. Daniel's name is on there. I immediately picked it up.
"Bar, I'm sorry I and Indira can't come to your engagement. Indira was exhausted like him and I had to accompany him at home. I stayed at the restaurant" he explained in a sad tone. "Gue can only doain may last until the wedding and always be happy."
"Yes Niel. I know. Thank you for praying yes. May Indira be healthy."
"Yes Bar. Thank ye. Greetings to the whole family and Sheryl of course."
"Yes Niel."
Daniel ended his call. I was still driving, rolling my eyes along the way looking for something interesting. My eyes were fixed on a cake shop, so crowded that it queued out the sidewalk. It's called Ruby's Cake Shop.
The cake sold there is delicious. Just look at the many who are lining up to buy.
I pulled over my vehicle in front of the famous minimarket and parked it there and set foot into the cake shop.
Twenty minutes later I made it into the cake shop. The queue is very annoying but if it is valuable why not.
A mother and a teenage girl were busy serving customers. Waiting and waiting until it was my turn to order. There are many types of cakes that are sold in this place.
"Welcome Brother. Can Ruby help you?" The young woman was named Ruby.
"Mom, what kind of cake is the recoment?" ruby looked at her mother.
"Red Velvet Ruby's. Times like this must be the mother who tells you too," replied Ruby Mother who is still busy serving other customers.
"Red Velvet Brother" he said with a friendly smile.
"Yes that's all. The largest size yes," I said.
"You want to add the words Kak?"
"Can. Please write down the word 'Happy Birthday Honey' that's it."
"Good Brother."
Then Ruby packed the 30x60 cm tart and gave it to me. Without wondering, I immediately took out the ATM card from my wallet and gave it as a means of payment.
Ruby returned my ATM card. The large red velvet cake I immediately carried carefully into the car.
The time had already shown at four in the afternoon when I arrived in front of the hotel room together with my family and family, Dita, and also the two friends of Sheryl who had been waiting for me.
Wildan lit a candle on the tart, he immediately knocked on the room door. Sheryl opened the door.
"Surprise! Happy birthday Sheryl," we cried in unison.
Sheryl gasped to see us. His eyes look teary. She smiled as if very happy. All regretted. Including myself, but of course I'm a little different. I hugged and kissed her forehead.
"Happy birthday honey" I whispered.
"I guess you forgot baby" she replied.
"Little bit. That's why I prepared this for so long. Sorry, dear."
Sheryl pinched my arm. I saw his face. He smiled, not angry at me.
"You're so adorable. Makes me think weird all day."
"I'm sorry." I close my lips to kiss her lips but I soon realized when Om the Great cleared his throat to stop my actions.
"Open Bar don't embarrass Mother dong. Are you so impatient?" reprimand Mother who is near me. I immediately pulled myself off taking my arms off her.
I sighed, biting my own lips, and rancid before them. I was totally misbehaved. Sheryl who saw my behavior just laughed. Everybody's laughing.
Aih .... Malunya i**!
"Okay, Sher blow out the candles first huh. Make a wish" said Wildan.
Sheryl nodded. He closed his eyes and blew out the candles that were lined up on the cake.
I approached her, looked at her and asked, "What hope do you have dear?"
Sheryl looked back at me softly, "I wish you and I were always happy and our happiness never runs out."
I smiled at him. My woman is getting older day by day. She had to become an adult because later she would become a wife as well as a mother for her children.
An hour later, the surprise event was over. Everyone had left the hotel room, including myself, who would drive the special guests to the car park.
