Today is Calista's birthday, but no one has said happy birthday to Calista.
It was now exactly twelve o'clock at night, so it was only natural that there was no reason for people to be asleep.
But because last year his friends said at twelve o'clock at night, so now Calista is very much waiting for him. In fact, his friends did not say anything.
Calista keeps a close eye on his WhatsApp app to see who the first person to say. But because it has been monitoring for approximately half an hour, Calista eventually overslept.
Skips
Calista woke up with an irregular breath. How not, in his dream he was pursued by Reyhan. His body was soaked with blood that Calista was terrified. Even in the dream Reyhan carries a knife and he seems to want to kill Calista.
Geck! Geck!
Calista's body trembled and he spontaneously covered his body with a blanket.
Cklek!
The sound of Mamah and Papah singing a happy birthday song and it makes Calista re-open the blanket that covers her body.
He was really scared, because he was afraid that this was still in his dream and he thought that the one knocking on the door was Reyhan.
"Happy birthday" said Mamah and Papah together.
"Thank you Mah, Pah."
"Let's pray first" said Mamah.
Calista closed his eyes and prayed, after which he immediately blew out the candle.
"Yes you have slept again, because it is still two in the morning" said Papah.
"Yes, Pah."
Papah and Mamah came back out of Calista's room because they also wanted to go back to sleep. After the two left, Calista opened her phone again to see if her friends had said it or not.
"Nyebelin really. They don't remember my birthday."
...****************...
At seven in the morning, Calista woke up again and he immediately checked his phone and it turns out there are some followers of his Instagram who congratulated Calista.
Although there was already a saying, but Calista felt dissatisfied because it was not the words of his friends.
Calista wanted to say in her group chat that today was her birthday. But since it seemed like his companions were still sleeping, so Calista would be patient waiting for them to congratulate Calista.
Ting!
A smile was engraved on Calista's face when there was one message from her group. When the message was opened, Calista's smile slowly dissipated as she read the contents of Erick's message.
Erick said that he would be transferring schools abroad. Calista knew for a fact that Erick moved because he was so scared, that Erick preferred to leave.
Calista felt that the day that should have been her happy day was now her worst day. Because he had to be left by his best friend to leave and not until when Erick will live there.
In addition to being sad because Erick left, Calista was also very sad because his friends did not remember Calista's birthday,
Calista rushed to the bathroom to wash her face and brush her teeth. After that, Calista rushed out of her room.
"Well, Calista wants a sport first."
"Want to wear a nightgown?" wonder Mamah.
"It's okay, Mah."
After telling mamah, Calista immediately went out of the house to exercise around the housing. When Calista left the house, he saw Bayu who was taking out the trash.
"Wood, jog yuk!" bring Calista.
"Where's jogging?" ask Bayu.
"Yes muter-muter housing."
"Yes, wait. I'm gonna wash my hands first." Bayu went back into the house.
It didn't take long, Bayu came back to Calista. Then, the two of them jogged together around the housing.
"Happy birthday yes," said Bayu suddenly and it makes Calista so turn towards him.
"Thank you."
"Later in the afternoon, right?" ask Bayu, then Calista just nodded.
"Out of sports, can I help you prepare for the show?"
Calista is thrilled that Bayu is helping out on her birthday. But on the other hand, he is also not good because he is afraid of troublesome Bayu.
"Ngerepotin no?"
"Yes, it's not. I'm not busy, so I want to help."
"Yes, you can. Will you please take care of the decoration."
"OK ready."
...****************...
The Rania POV
It's been a few days that Rania doesn't know from Erick. And precisely this morning, Erick finally sent a message in the group. But unfortunately, Erick gave news about him who will go to school in Malaysia.
Somehow Rania feels awkward with Erick's sudden departure. Especially since a few days before Erick did not go to school and that made Rania so worried.
To be sure, Rania chooses to call him because who knows Erick is just kidding.
Before long, Erick answered the phone from Rania. "What's up, Ran?"
"Lo's seriously moving, Rick?"
"Yes, I'm serious."
"Why move?"
Erick does not answer questions from Rania and it makes Rania worried because he is afraid if Erick moved because of Rania. Because Rania feels that if she is wrong about Erick, even Rania also had time to reject Erick.
"Ran, I'm sorry if I got it wrong. And also I hope you keep happy."
"Lo said what the hell, Rick. You've never been wrong with me."
"Ran, please tell the others that I love you guys so much. So you guys never forget me."
Unknowingly, Rania shed her tears after hearing Erick's words.
"Lo when is it? I want to take you to the airport."
"Not to take me. I can go by myself."
Rania sobbed, as she was very sad if Erick left.
"Don't cry" said Erick.
"But you'll be here again?"
"Hmm. I don't know."
"It's so bad lo. You won't see your friends again."
Erick just shut up and it made Rania upset because it looks like Erick will forget his friends.
"Ran, I love you so much" said Erick. After saying that, Erick instantly turned off his phone.
...****************...
Calista POV's
Finished exercising, Calista and Bayu prepare for the event for Calista's birthday. Calista and Bayu decorate the living room. While Mamah and Papah, they are busy making food and drinks to be served during the event. The Calista brothers will also come to help and maybe they will come soon.
"Woodoo, I want to get a cell phone first. You want to see the chat, who knows if someone said."
"Well! there must be a lot of people saying."
"Not so anyway."
Calista rushed to his room to get his cell phone. And when it's seen, there's a missed call from Erick.
Ting!
Suddenly Erick sends a message and he writes the words happy birthday to Calista along with prayers for Calista. But when reading the end of the message, Calista was disappointed that Erick could not attend Calista's birthday because Erick was leaving.
After reading Erick's message, Calista decides to call Kevin because he hasn't congratulated Calista.
Yes, Calista is impatient, so he wants his girlfriend to quickly say happy birthday to Calista even though he must be told first by Calista.
"Hallo, Ta."
"Vin, I'm birthday. You didn't say congratulations to me."
"Happy birthday, baby."
Calista smiled even though she was actually upset that Kevin did not seem to remember her. Even if he remembered, surely after picking up the phone from Calista, he immediately said happy birthday to Calista.
"Ta, yes first. I want to find Erick. He said he didn't come home last night and his parents said Erick wouldn't change schools. So now I'm really worried about him."
"Can I go find Erick?"
"No need. You must be busy preparing for your birthday. Oh yeah, maybe I'll come to your house after Erick meets." After saying that, Kevin immediately turned off his phone.
Calista's eyes glazed over after her phone call was ended by Kevin. la feeling that her birthday this time was truly her worst birthday. Even now his best friend is going somewhere, which is definitely Erick going because he is very scared.
Calista did not blame Erick, only he was a little disappointed because his friends did not care about Calista.
Suddenly Bayu calls Calista, then Calista hastily exits his room.
"Where's the decoration going to be placed?" ask Bayu.
"Wood, I think I'll cancel the show."
"Loh! cancelled kok. Not that you've told a classmate."
"Yes, but I want to cancel. It's free to celebrate my birthday without my friends."
Calista tells Bayu that Erick went missing from last night, even Erick also lied to Calista and others about him going to school.
"Emang Erick what's the matter anyway? how to get out of the house."
Calista kept quiet, because he couldn't possibly tell Bayu about Erick's secret.
"Mah!" call Calista when his mother comes to Calista and Bayu.
"Yes, why?" ask Mamah.
"Well, her birthday is not. You see, Calista's friends aren't coming."
"They must have come" said Mamah.
Calista explains to Mamahnya that Kevin is currently looking for Erick and maybe also Rania and Friska are also currently looking for him.
"They just pretend not to come time so you are sad, but later they will give you a surprise" said Mamah.
"It is also true what Mamah lo said," said Bayu.
"Oh yeah, I don't think they're really coming."
The show begins, but Calista still does not see the figure of his best friend, which there are only relatives and classmates and even then some who come.
As time went on, Calista started her show with a candle blow and cut a cake.
The first piece of cake he loved Papah as his biological parents and the second piece of cake he gave to his stepmother. After that, continue with the meal together.
"Kevin, where are you?" calista asked after Kevin answered his call.
"Ta, I'm sorry I couldn't come. You see, I'm waiting for Erick in the hospital again" said Kevin and of course Calista's heart was racing because Kevin's voice was shaking and he wanted to cry.
"Erick why?"
"Erick attempted suicide. And now I, Friska and Rania are in the hospital."
Kevin said that he called Erick and when he was picked up it was the man who helped Erick. And the guy says that Erick is in Melati's hospital, so Kevin hastily went there.
Kevin accidentally just tells Rania and Friska. Because there's no way he's calling Calista when Calista is busy with his birthday.
"Ta, you enjoy the show even though there is no me, Rania, Friska and Erick."
"I'm just going there, Vin. I'm worried about Erick."
"No, Ta. It's your birthday, so you've got to stay there."
Calista hung up the phone and rushed away. At the moment in the middle room all eyes were on Calista who was walking towards the outside.
"Calista, where are you going?" shouts Papah.
Erick's in the hospital, Pah. So Calista has to go."
"Ta, I'll take ya," said Bayu. Then the two left immediately. So did Calista's classmates, they rushed away because they wanted to know Erick's condition.
Skips
After arriving at the hospital, Calista and the others immediately approached Kevin, Rania and Friska who were waiting outside the room.
"Vin, Erick's fine, right?" ask Calista to make sure.
Kevin nodded slowly. "Now he's all right, only he's still limp."
"Ta, I'm sorry we didn't show up for your birthday" Friska said.
"It's okay."
Before long the other friends came and asked Erick's condition. But Kevin just explained that Erick only had a fever, because there was no way he could explain to them all that actually happened.
"Gue thought it was an accident," muttered Ridho, as Calista hurriedly left as if Erick was seriously ill.
"Vin, who's inside?"
"There's a Papah with Erick's Mom."
"Can I come in?" calista asked, but Kevin forbade it because of the maximum entry of 2 people.
After the other friends leave, Friska and Rania ask Kevin about why Erick attempted suicide. But Kevin said he did not know, when in fact he knew that Erick did it because he was scared and felt guilty to Reyhan.
So Erick was going to kill himself?" bewildered Bayu and that left Calista and the others speechless.
"Guys, don't talk about it."
"If so I go home first yes, because it's late at night," said Bayu.
Kevin tells Calista to go home with Bayu, because Kevin cannot deliver him because he will stay at the hospital.
"I'm just here."
"Don't. You better go home with Bayu" said Kevin.
"Wood, you go between Friska. You see, he felt sorry for it" Calista said, looking at the evaporating Friska.
Finally Bayu invites Friska to go home and of course Friska is very happy because she was delivered home by Bayu.
"Yes, we have come home first, yes" said Bayu, then he and Friska immediately left.
Kevin looks at Calista from head to toe and he is worried that Calista will get cold because Calista is wearing a dress.
"Ran, you wait here. I want to take Calista home" Kevin said.
"I told you I'd stay here."
"Yes, I know. You just have to say the same to your parents and also you have to change clothes, because if you sleep in a dress it will be cold."
"Well let's go." Calista and Kevin leave immediately.
Skips
Along the way, Calista continued to rub his skin because he was cold. Fortunately, Kevin now has a car with him, so Calista's body is not too cold. Maybe if now Calista ride the bike, surely the next day he will catch a cold.
"Sorry, I can't come."
Calista looked at Kevin. "It's okay."
"You must be disappointed because me, Erick, Rania and Friska didn't come."
Calista's eyes began to glaze over because Kevin's words were right. Calista was disappointed, but on the other hand he also did not want to be selfish because the situation is very emergency at the moment.
"Later if Erick is healthy again, we'll celebrate your birthday."
"Not to."
"I know you must be upset because of this incident. But please, don't be mad at Erick."
"No. I'm not upset, just sad because you guys didn't come."
Now Calista started crying and it made Kevin immediately stop his car on the side of the road. Then, Kevin immediately hugged Calista so as not to cry anymore.
Then, Kevin let go of his embrace after Calista started not crying anymore. "What if now we celebrate your birthday in a papah restaurant. Wanna don't?"
"Other times, I'm not in the mood."
"Oh yes, actually I brought a gift for you because I thought I would be there, but it turns out I can't come," Kevin said while taking a gift for Calista.
Kevin gave the gift to Calista. But Calista hesitated because he was afraid that the gift of Kevin was expensive like a necklace at that time and Calista was afraid that papah Kevin would be angry again.
"Let's open!" kevin orders, then Calista immediately opens the gift.
The content of the gift is a diary in which the book contains writings and photographs of Calista that even Calista did not know about the photo.
It seems true that Kevin has long loved Calista, because Calista knew that the photo was a photo when Calista was in the tenth grade.
"It's so ugly the picture" Calista murmured.
"Beautiful," praised Kevin.
In addition to seeing his photos, Calista also read the writings in addition to his photos. Calista was very moved because Kevin was very intent to write information such as date, month and year. According to Calista it was very impressive, because only this time he got a man who remembered such small things.
"Thank you. It's a really good card."
"Yes obviously dong. You see, I made it hard, my hands ached because of writing."
Calista smiled as she imagined how tired Kevin was of pasting photos and writing messages in the photos.
"Oh yeah, I have one more gift."
"Where?"
Chup!
Kevin kisses Calista's lips and it makes Calista sculpt. The longer, the kiss heats up, causing Calista to push Kevin's body because he is out of breath.
Both of them averted their eyes, then they set their breaths because the kiss was quite long.
"Let's go home."
"See, I want a photo of you first." Kevin took his phone, and he took a photo with Calista. After that, Kevin posted the photo on his social media and he also did not forget to add a romantic caption.
Skips
Arriving home, Calista and Kevin get out of the car. The two rush into the house to ask for permission so that Calista is allowed to stay at the hospital.
"Papah is not prohibiting, but certainly the hospital prohibits if many are waiting for patients" Papah said.
"Yes, Papah said. Besides not allowed, it can also disturb patients" said Mamah.
Calista and Kevin did not know this, so both thought that anyone could stay in the hospital.
Ting!
Suddenly there was a message from the group and the one who sent the message was Rania. Rania said that the hospital forbade her to stay overnight, because Rania was not a family of patients. Rania finally decided to go home.
"Yes, if so, Kevin went home first, Om, Aunt."
"You just stay here, after all, it's late at night and you're afraid of why" said Mamah.
"Yes, it's better to stay here."
Kevin looked at Papah Calista, because he was afraid Papah Calista would not allow him to stay the night.
"Can't you, Om?" ask Kevin to make sure.
"Can. But don't sleep in Calista's room" Papah joked.
"Yes, Om."
Calista pulls Kevin into the living room, as he wants to give Kevin a birthday cake. In addition, he wanted to enjoy food and drinks that Calista had not tasted before because he had hurried to go to the hospital.
"So that came a lot didn't?"
"Not really. Only a few of the same class kids my brother came."
Calista gives Kevin his birthday cake and he tells Kevin to taste it.
Only Kevin ate the cake, Calista immediately took food and other drinks.
Kevin never thought to see Calista bring a lot of food and drinks. "Don't do much, fear doesn't run out."
"It's for me, not for you. If you want, you take it yourself."
Calista did not eat or drink the dishes at the party, so now he is so hungry.
"Usually if dinner-night likes fat loh, Ta."
Calista's gaze turned sinister as Kevin said that. Maybe not just Calista alone, but other women must be directly badmood if anyone mentions the word fat.
Speaking of the word fat, Calista used to call a classmate named Fira with the word. And now, Calista was truly sorry for having taunted him.
Come to think of it, Calista used to be very evil, even he often hurt the feelings of others. Even though Calista apologized to those people, of course Calista still felt guilty.
"Ta, sorry. I didn't mean to call you fat" Kevin said.
Calista ignored Kevin's words, he just focused on enjoying his food and drinks. No matter if he gains weight, it's important that tonight Calista doesn't starve.
"Vin, you have another gift not for me?"
"You want another kiss?" kevin asked and Calista spontaneously silenced Kevin's mouth for fear of his parents hearing.
*Don't be hard, my parents will be angry if they find out."
"So you want that kayak gift again?" kevin asked, then Calista hit Kevin's arm straight away because that's not what Calista wanted.
Calista says she wants Kevin to sing any song for Calista.
"I can't sing, Ta. You're the one who sings, because you were once following the vocal exkul even though the edges come out."
"I want you to sing."
"My voice is ugly, Ta'
"It's okay. I don't care if you want your voice to be ugly or nice, what's important is that I want to hear your voice."
Because today is Calista's birthday, Kevin finally obeyed his will even though Kevin's voice was not melodious.
