The Single Daddy System
Chapter 24. Birthday Preparation of Lucas
...[.Host, here's your mission evaluation]...
A mysterious cluster of light suddenly appeared on the table by the window, revealing a paper after the light slowly faded away.
Towards the end of the month, Arya immediately walked to the table. "Well, the cave thinks it's like a book, it doesn't know it's just a piece of white paper" he said.
...[.Yep. The paper contains a summary assessment of the missions you have completed. See how much you got]...
Arya gazed solemnly at the piece of paper she had received from the system. He saw a variety of writings that can be read, also explained some details about the missions he had completed.
"Hm ... S?" arya asked in her heart, looking at a letter on the bottom corner of the paper.
...[.Right, you got an S. Want to mention the reward now?]...
"Boleh ... mumpung cave not yet sleepy," replied Arya curious.
...[.Alright. The reward is, you're going through a year of accelerated time]...
"Huh yeah?" Arya spontaneously twisted. "What do you mean?" tanyanya was suspicious.
...[.I'm not done talking. But, listen carefully. You and Lucas are going to have a year of acceleration. That is the main reward. Next reward is —]...
"Just be a little bit." Arya suddenly cut the system's words, seeming to object to the reward. "If accelerated by a year, then Lucas missed his first birthday. The cave strongly objected then. It's not like it's a chance to celebrate Lucas' first birthday" he said.
...[.Oh, well. Your proposal I'm going to tell the central system. Please wait a minute]...
Arya is getting confused, not understanding what the system will do next.
While waiting for the system to return, Arya took the time to sit near the window. "Birthday celebrations are important for babies. Maybe they speed up the time over the next year, surely there will be many events that will be passed between the cave and Lucas," he mused.
...[.I'm back, host]...
Arya spontaneously stood up. "Where?" tanyakanya.
...[.The central system has made it easy, as time will accelerate towards Lucas' first birthday, exactly five months from the present time. Hows it? Do you still mind?]...
That explanation is what makes Arya smile as wide as possible. "Yeah! Cave agreed! But one more thing, the cave asks you to call Alexa's contact number, Angela, Reina. They'll be invited to Lucas' birthday party later" he asked.
...[.Hmm .. okay. Why didn't you just ask for their number from the beginning?]...
Arya immediately walked to the bed, after finding Lucas' blanket slightly exposed. "Yaaa the name of the person forgets, where ingaat," he replied.
*System grunting*
...[.Okay, I get it. Get ready, because the acceleration of time will start from now]...
"S—now?" Arya was surprised, while covering Lucas' body with a blanket. "Who should the cave be?" tanyakanya.
...[.You don't have to worry. Just shut up there]...
After the system succeeds in convincing Arya, oddities begin to occur.
Started with the emergence of the sound of a mysterious wind that blows loudly, then accompanied by a change of the sky so fast.
Morning, afternoon, evening and night, time changes happen so quickly. Arya also became a witness when she turned her head full of amazement towards the window glass, watching how quickly time passed, so that it could not be reasoned by common sense.
Arya did not even realize, if the number indicator on the digital clock also moved so fast, indicating that the system really controls the magic.
"really amazing. This incident is the same as the time warp feature in the RPG game that once played cave first, "inner Arya, looks gaping with wide eyes.
...[.Completed]...
The change in time stopped immediately, time went back to normal as usual. The system restores the atmosphere of the night, making Arya immediately blink while watching it.
...[.It's Friday, January 15, 2021, nine o'clock in the evening]...
Arya spontaneously turned to Lucas. "So, tomorrow's Lucas' birthday?" ask in the heart.
...[.Yep. Tomorrow you're going on a mission, celebrating Lucas' birthday smoothly, without any obstacles. Rest soon]...
"Oh, okay." Arya immediately went up to the bed, immediately lying right beside Lucas. "Thank you, yes" he said, with his eyes closed.
...[.Hold still. I haven't finished mentioning the reward. Congratulations on the host's achievement in the first month. Since the hosts get the highest marks, the central system has lightened this elapsed six months time]...
...[.Reward for a host, a two-story home unit. Equipped with four bedrooms with each bathroom, one library room, one kitchen room, and one garage. Hosts also get a reward of one hundred million rupiah. Thanks]...
Unfortunately, Arya was already far asleep in her sleep, so she could not hear what the system had just said.
...[.Host?]...
*System grunting*
...[.All right, I'll say it back tomorrow. Good night, and good night, host]...
...ΩΩΩΩΩΩΩΩΩΩΩΩΩΩΩΩ...
Arya started this morning excitedly.
Lucas mastered a chocolate cream shake that Arya had processed. The baby innocently devoured the chocolate cream, to the point that his mouth looked straw.
"It is also difficult to make a birthday cake .. especially while being bullied Lucas. Not going to run like this, " complained Arya, while stirring the flour dough.
...[.I told you from the beginning, you don't have the talent to make cakes]...
Suddenly, Arya's phone rang. In a hurry he grabbed the phone from his pants pocket, then found Reina trying to reach him.
"Hello, Arya," Reina said on a cell phone call.
"Hello. You come here?" ask Arya.
"Yes, so it's. Wait, well, I'm going there again" replied Reina.
"okay."
In an instant Arya turned off the phone call, also delaying her activities of stirring up the cake dough.
...[.Host, is it not wrong to invite them all?]...
The system question was spoken when Arya walked over to Lucas. He saw the baby ruffling chocolate cream dough freely.
"They were all cave acquaintances, as well as Lucas' playmates. What harm?" arya replied, grabbing Lucas' armpit.
The floor of the room where Lucas was sitting was seen splattered, stained with chocolate cream.
...[.Is correct. But I don't think it's ethical. Some of them seem very ambitious to get you. Approaching Lucas is just an alibi, except for one person]...
"One person?" Arya was curious, while carrying Lucas to go to the bathroom. "The feeling that the cave knows, they all have the same intention. Who is that guy?" ask Arya.
...[.Hmm .. You'll find out later. I just hope they all understand each other. Does not create a hot atmosphere]...
The system's words, instead ignored Arya, who was busy cleaning Lucas' mouth from chocolate cream stains. "You are Lucas. Papah is tired of making chocolate cream for birthday cakes, even you are random," he told the baby.
Lucas was silent, as Arya washed her mouth with the sink water. The baby looks calm, in contrast to the father seems overwhelmed preparing something special for him.
(*Tok tock)
...[.Host, someone's visiting]...
Arya rubbed Lucas' mouth with a handkerchief. "Definitely Reina. He's a lot more distant than here" he said.
...[.No. gabe. Only four people came]...
"Huh?" Arya spontaneously widened, rushed to hold Lucas and took the baby to the top of the bed. "Four people? The feeling of the cave is just three people already," he said.
...[.No, you're the wrong host. Alexa and her friends]...
(*Tok tock)
The knocking sound of the door was heard again, making Arya immediately sit Lucas on the bed, before rushing towards the door of the room. "Wadm ... Alexa even ngundang his friends again," he murmured.
*System grunting*
...[.I've guessed that before. Don't worry, the most important thing is that you focus on your mission]...
"Yesn ...." Arya slowly sighed, before preparing to welcome Alexa et al. "Everything must be good" he hoped.
After opening the lock, Arya immediately pulled the door of the room. He saw the presence of four beautiful girls who had been waiting for a long time, in front of the door of the room.
Without further ado, Bella and Clarissa sneak into the room.
"Lucaass!" call them in unison, approaching the sitting Lucas.
"Big, Lucas! I miss you" said Bella, sitting at the side of the bed hugging the baby's body.
"Yeah!" Clarissa sat down and hugged Lucas from behind. "I miss you too Lucas ..." he said.
Watching their behavior, Alexa grimaced. "M—maaf yah Arya .. they really make a shame," he said.
Arya also smiled grimacingly, rubbing the back of her hair while looking at Lucas. "Ahaha .. gapapa. Lucas is like them, too" Arya replied.
Unexpected things happen. Arya suddenly found someone hugging her body from behind, while Alexa was standing next to her.
"Who is this?!" Both eyes of Arya then widened, realizing who was the person who was very brave to do the inappropriate thing. "This must have been Sa—"
"Mas Arya .. don't tell me you miss me. I'm also missing, a heavy miss with you" whispered Sarah, passionately hugging Arya from behind.
Alexa turned to Sarah, as well as Bella and Clarissa who were surprised by the work of the glasses girl.
"Hahahhhhh!!!" reprimand them in unison.
"Klirvahoo!" Lucas is similar
