Happy Birthday To Me
Happy Birthday to Me - 26

...🕯️🕯️🕯️...

The sound of the clang of a spoon is heard while the eating activity is taking place. This time the dinner from the Lena family went so well.

The sound of footsteps could be heard making some restaurant visitors turn to look at the figure of Lena who had just entered the restaurant.

"That's lena," said Yasir, Papa of Lena.

"Lena, where are you from, anyway?" karni asked as she looked at her daughter who had just arrived.

"Yes Lena, how long is it?"

"Sorry, Ma because Lena was from bantuin temen," he said then quickly sat on the chair.

A minute later Lena could only nod her head while giving a smile as her mother introduced her new best friend to a company she worked for.

Yes actually the thing he did not like the most was pretending to be a quiet child. Lena was forced to pretend to be quiet and just give a smile so that her friend from her mother considers if her best friend's daughter is a quiet girl.

In the moments he ate this spaghetti Lena frowned as she could hear a voice so familiar to him that there was even a sound of laughter that she was familiar with. The voice of the girl he hated so much.

He quickly turned his head to look at a table where it looked as if there was a very happy family. It felt like being struck by lightning when he saw the figure of Glen who looked so happy sitting together with their families who were seen eating dinner together.

There were Papa and Mama from Kinara and also the parents from Glen himself. Then if

Glen is here Who will be surprised by Syifa at the restaurant?

Lena bit the tip of her nails so very anxiously, that meant Glen did not come to her birthday surprise event but rather she preferred to be with Kinara as well as their two parents.

"Happy birthday, yes Glen!"

"Happy birthday."

The voice from Kinara was heard making Lena turn her head to look at Glen who looked happy when Kinara gave her a birthday cake

Both of Lena's eyes instantly rounded, which meant that they were not just sitting together and having dinner but that they were also currently celebrating Glen's birthday.

What about Syifa?"

Lena looked down at her watch which was still showing at 10:00 and that meant that Syifa had waited 2 hours more at the restaurant. Of course Glen did not come there because he was busy eating dinner here as well as celebrating his birthday.

"Lena, how come you're dumb, anyway?"

Lena was shocked. He quickly looked at his mother.

"Yes, Ma?"

"Our food is all gone, you have plenty. Cepetan end of it because we want to go home!" tell him to make Lena can only nod and eat the remaining spaghetti.

A second later when Papa and his mother again told a story with his best friend that made him turn back to Glen and then he looked down at the clock on his wrist.

"It's possible that Glen will be here at 11:00" he thought.

...🕯️🕯️🕯️...

The ever-expanding smile adorning his face just kept forming. The corner of his lips always lifted giving a smile, no matter what time it is.

Now his little watch shows at 11:00 p.m., but Glen never comes to this surprise event.

Syifa took a sip of his saliva. Both of his eyes were tightly closed trying to resist the drowsiness. It seems that waiting for someone is so exhausting. Syifa occasionally moved her head trying to stare towards the main door hoping Glen would appear there immediately.

Syifa grabbed her phone staring at the message column for Glen who had given absolutely no message to her. With a breather Syifa began to press the keyboard keys on her phone, sending a message to remind Glen of his upcoming appointment for this surprise.

[Gener]

[Do you remember the same promise? Syifa wait, yes]

The short message sent made Syifa again smile a little, a little anxious. His two eyes staring at the sent message moved to stare at the remaining 2% of his phone battery. Syifa sighed, she forgot to bring a charger to charge her phone and soon the battery ran out.

"Hello, Ma."

"Syifa, where are you?"

"Don't tell me, will you?"

"Udah, but Mama wants to ask you directly. Now, it's half-twelfth, why don't you go home, anyway?"

"Mama, Syifa was going to celebrate Glen's birthday, yes surely at twelve o'clock will just be celebrated. Maybe Syifa's coming home at about one o'clock."

"Oh that's it."

"It's okay, right?"

"It's okay, too, because there's Glen there. Don't forget to take good care of yourself, yes!"

"Yes, Ma."

"Mama, wait, yeah."

"Yes okay."

"Oh yes Syifa later on"

Tut tut tut's...

Call disconnected. The two eyebrows of Syifa are intertwined because they are confused by the unfinished speech of Mama. He kept the phone away from his face staring at the screen of his phone which is now black. Repeatedly Syifa pressed him to light up making Syifa click her lips with a feeling of annoyance staring at the battery of her phone that has been exhausted and that means no one else will accompany her to wait for the arrival of Glen.

"Where, anyway? How long? Almost twelve o'clock, this loh."

...🕯️🕯️🕯️...

"Lena why, anyway? Kok kayak was very anxious," his mother's reprimand made Lena raise her gaze.

"Why? I think he was very worried. What else to think, anyway?"

"Nothing, really," he argued.

Lena picked up her phone and quickly sent a message to Syifa.

[Shypha. I was eating Glen dinner and celebrated his birthday with Kinara. There were both parents too]

The sent message made both of his eyes slightly rounded as he stared at the one tick, it meant Syifa would not see it.

"Why is that kid, not active?"

"Usually he never, not matiin quota."

Lena put the phone on the table and just wanted to put spaghetti in her mouth and suddenly the two families got up from the table, including Glen.

"Is it possible that Glen forgot or just wanted to go to a surprise event after coming home from this place?" think Lena.

"But where could Glen possibly forget. Where maybe he's playing two birthday shows on the same night."

"Maybe I have to ask him directly," he thought then quickly rose to make Papa, Mama and his best friend look up.

"Where are you going Lena?"

"Lena willy-nilly" the speech that had stopped stared at the door where Glen had gone quite far.

"Udah sit! There's still plenty of food after this we want to go home. Scribbles up!" her orders made Lena inevitably sit back in her chair.

Ah, even though she wanted to ask Glen this surprise, it was possible that the man had forgotten.
