Happy Birthday To Me
Happy Birthday To Me - 39
...🕯️🕯️🕯️...
"Ehem! If in friendship there is no word of thanks," he said to make Syifa smile a little.
Syifa stepped down from the car. He smiled looking at the figure of Lena who now began to wave her hand as if to say goodbye until finally the car driven by Lena drove away from Syifa who is now on the road right in front of her house.
Syifa breathed a long breath. It feels so exhausting today. Syifa stepped her feet into the yard until finally when she arrived at the door from inside there the figure of Rahmi was seen while folding both hands in front of the chest. His eyes also look sharp as if he is saving something that he wants to throw for Syifa.
Syifa stepped into the house and stopped her steps as the distance between her and Rahmi was near.
"Mama why?" ask Syifa.
Rahmi smiled then she bowed and looked back at Syifa.
"You don't pretend you don't know, Syifa."
"I mean Mama?"
"Mama got a call from your teacher at school if you've run into a fight with one of the girls there."
Hearing that made Syifa clap her lips with annoyance turned out that the news of her quarrel with her boyfriend's cousin had been heard and known by Rahmi.
"Correct?"
Syifa did not answer. He was silent until he managed to make Rahmi laugh as if he had received an answer from his daughter.
"That mama told you to go to school to learn not to fight, Syifa."
"Ma, Syifa doesn't want this language first!" he then stepped up however, his steps were held back as Rahmi held Syifa's wrist tightly.
"Mama's not done talking to you. Mama wants to talk about this fight with you."
Syifa took a deep breath. He thought when he got home he would rest, but his mother instead talked about this matter that had passed.
"Sit now!" Show it on a sofa.
"Ma but Syifa-"
"Sit now!" his door with an elevated tone made Syifa inevitably have to sit on the sofa.
"Mama doesn't understand, same with you. Why you should fight at school."
"Ma, Syifa is not fighting but there is martial arts."
"Self did you say? Mama, you never taught you to fight in school. Don't you know, Syifa?"
"Yes Syifa knows she's just a bitch. Syifa doesn't like it."
"Who's doing this?"
"North."
"Oh so you fought with Kinara? The guy you hit is Kinara?"
"Yes, he's Glen's cousin."
"You fought with your own girlfriend's cousin?"
Syifa nodded.
"Can't do it, anyway?"
"He's the one who's looking for Syifa's problem first. If he did not look for the same problem Syifa certainly Syifa would not fight," he explained making Rahmi sit on the sofa with both eyes looking at Syifa so very seriously.
"You know not Syifa, because you Mama should be called to your school."
Hearing this, Syifa's eyes rounded. He quickly turned his head to look towards Rahmi who was still looking at him seriously.
"Mom to school?"
"Yes, Mama is going to school."
"When is eleven? Where's your eleven?"
Syifa was silent. He doesn't know what to say. It's impossible if he says he's in the hospital and has learned he has brain cancer. What would her mother say if she knew it all.
"Let's answer now! Mama want to ask at eleven o'clock in your school where? Mama is looking for you but you are not there. Mama didn't see you."
"Syifa in the UKS."
"In the UKS you say?" ask and then laugh.
"Yes Syifa in the UKS."
"Where exactly are you Syifa? You where? Cepetan answer? you run around, yeah or make an event because you've hit people's children?" continued.
"Yes, Ma."
"Where to?"
Syifa. He was confused as to what to say now.
"You really are, yeah. Just be careful if you go for a walk at school!" he then grabbed the phone from his pocket.
He pressed his phone several times making Syifa's forehead folded staring confused by what was being done by his mother.
"Why would you like to do something?"
"Mama wants to call Lena."
"Well, what's it doing?" syifa asked who tried to hold Rahmi's hand, but Rahmi quickly picked up her phone so that it could not be reached by Syifa.
"Mama's gonna call Lena so Mama can know where you're going. Look out for you, Syifa!"
Syifa squeezed her fingers so very worried. He was afraid that Lena would say if they had just returned from the hospital especially if Lena said the results of the examination would of course be a big problem for Syifa.
The phone rang making Syifa's heart beat very fast.
"Observe you, yes!" whispered Rahmi again made Syifa wait for her saliva. He is afraid now, he is not afraid of Rahmi's threat unless he is afraid if Lena says everything.
"Hello."
The voice from across the street made Syifa close her eyes tightly and touch her head as if she was not ready to hear the explanation that would be spoken by Lena later.
"Hello, Len!"
"Yes Aunt."
"Where are you, Len?"
"Just arrived."
"Oh, you were with Syifa, right?"
Lena who just got off the car is now stopped in her steps. It felt as if his face and body were trembling at that very moment.
"Lena you were with Syifa, right?"
"Yes Aunt."
"You answered honestly because Auntie already knows everything, really."
"Tante knows what?"
"Yes, Auntie already knew that Syifa was fighting at once with you too. Aye, right?"
"Yes Auntie" replied Lena.
"After you fight, where are you eleven o'clock? Let's answer!"
Lena fell silent. Both of her eyes twitched in search of the right answer and on one side Syifa bit the tip of her fingers so very anxious. I don't know what Lena will answer.
"Lena, come on, you answer me!"
"Yes Aunt."
"Let's answer!"
"Ta-ta-at's Lena same Syifa to the hospital."
Hearing this made Syifa's eyes round. You idiot, why did Lena say that. Didn't they agree and promise not to tell this secret to Mama but why Lena even told this.
"Hospital? Why go to the hospital?"
"Yes Aunty, that was Syifa's face, there were a lot of swelling and bruising marks so Syifa went to the hospital and asked for a hospital permit."
"Let's rest tomorrow," he replied, making Syifa breathe a sigh of relief but, as Syifa breathed a sigh of relief, both of Rahmi's eyes immediately panned staring
Syifa who quickly held her breath in her throat.
"What are you really?"
