Happy Birthday To Me
Happy Birthday to Me - 15

...🕯️🕯️🕯️...

Ting!

The sound of bells ringing when the door on a cake shop opened showed Syifa who was stepping into the cake shop with a smile that always expands and occasionally he greeted every resident and shop visitor the cake today.

His smile grew even more when he was faced with a man in black uniform with a picture of a birthday cake, he was Meno one of the employee employees at this cake shop.

"Hello good morning, Syifa. Today I want another birthday cake, okay? Who for?" his question is so familiar.

Meno is already very familiar with Syifa because Syifa every once a month always come to this cake shop to buy birthday cakes for people around her are celebrating her birthday.

"You know, Mr. Men, if Syifa wants to buy a birthday cake."

"Sure, dong. Who's birthday today?"

"Today's Syifa's father's birthday."

The tall man nodded at Syifa with a very attentive look. Honestly, he was very amazed by the figure of Syifa who always cared about the little things of someone even he always felt confused why a girl like Syifa could exist in this world.

The girl who always wanted to celebrate the birthday of the people around her even the last time Syifa came in this place ordered a birthday cake for her maid and this time she came to order a cake to celebrate the birthday of the father however, which makes Meno feel a little pity because no one came to put the cake and celebrate the birthday for Syifa. I don't know maybe they didn't put the cake in this store but somewhere else.

"You want a cake that's how Syifa?"

Syifa is silent now. He looked at each model of the birthday cake on a menu that he had now held while Meno was seen waiting while continuing to look seriously at Syifa's face.

"Beautiful, yes brother now. Is there a new cake?"

"Yes there are many but if Syifa wants to order a cake in accordance with Syifa's wishes later we can also make it. If I want to give you paper and pen let Syifa whose own picture will be made with the same person inside," he explained.

"By, brother."

Hearing this, Meno grabbed a paper and pen and placed it on a glass table, making Syifa grab it and draw the shape of the cake she wanted.

Today he wants to make a very special cake shape for his father. Syifa was eager to see her father smile when she came to bring him a birthday cake today. He really misses his father, no matter his father has remarried and has children. His father is still his father, no one can separate him even though his father has a new family.

"This is my sister so about the end of what time, brother?" asked Syifa who stuck out the paper made Meno quickly take it and look at it closely.

"Oh if a model like this may be about before Maghrib is also finished."

"Before maghrib, huh brother?"

Meno.

"Want to wait or want to be delivered?"

"Syifa just wait, deh kak anyan also Syifa want to choose a gift for Dad."

"Well, it's lucky that Syifa's father must have been very happy to get a surprise like this" said someone who was stepping closer to Meno.

"Eh, brother Vira. Good afternoon, Vira!"

"Have a good afternoon. Want to celebrate your birthday again?"

The woman who was one of the employees of the cake shop also nodded.

"So now you want to pick a gift?"

Syifa nodded.

"You want Vira Temenin? Not anything later ngerepotin againan Syifa also like a long time, deh make coy."

"Oh, that's okay."

"Yes Syifa left first, brother," he said then he stepped away towards the part of the gift.

Here there are so many items that can be used as gifts for people who are on birthdays and here also the gifts purchased can be directly wrapped and directly handed over to the person who is reworked the year. Syifa set her foot slowly tracing every item on display in this place.

Syifa who was busy stepping turned her head when she heard the voice of a woman. From here you can see the figure of a woman who is also a busy congregation waiting in line and choosing some form of cake.

"Well, I think today a lot of people have birthdays on Dad's birthday too" he commented for a moment and then stepped back.

Syifa grabbed her small bag and pulled out her phone and pressed it several times to contact someone.

Ringing, that's what Syifa could hear as she put the phone to her cheek.

"Hello good afternoon Lena," said Syifa so happy.

"Okay, what do you do, call me afternoon-afternoon gini? I'm going to sleep again."

"Well, how do you sleep, Lena? Syifa, I've been chatting if today don't sleep first, dong!"

"What's wrong, anyway?" said Lena who was on the other side there seemed to scratch her head while occasionally yawning.

"Oh, Lena forgot? Today is Syifa's father's birthday so Syifa wants Lena to come to the cake shop. Well, we'll both go to Dad's house to celebrate his birthday."

"Duh, crazy times huh nih son. I am so tired of not being able to come to the cake shop. Especially having to celebrate your father's birthday."

"Yes, Lena, what the hell is that? Syifa's time has to be alone to give a surprise to Dad."

"Yes, what's the problem, if you are alone who celebrate your birthday for your father."

"But-"

"Let's say it's your dad, not my dad" he cut.

As soon as Syifa's smile vanished from her lips somehow every speech uttered by the friend was always spicy, there was not a sweet taste even a little bit.

Syifa took a deep breath and exhaled slowly. He again pulled the corner of his lips trying to keep smiling not wanting to include spicy speech from Lena.

"Well, that's okay, but if it's like"

Tut tut tut's...

The disconnection made Syifa lower the phone from her cheek staring at the phone screen that had shown the applications she had, no more pictures of her best friend Lena. He really decided on the phone.
