Merlinda (Ranging Back)
Happy Birthday to you (Daniel )

Along the way, several times Elin stole a glance towards the middle-aged woman beside her, "Mam." he called her slowly.

" Hemmm." said Viona. With a face that has since looked as pure as ever, "what's the matter ? " he continued when he realized Elin kept looking at him in wonder.

" emm.., Mami why keep smiling ? " ask Elin, who could not help her curiosity.

" What is that ? " ask Viona back. However, the tip of his lips did not stop curling.

Elin nodded, "since we got out of the Plaza, Mami didn't stop smiling ".

" really ? " viona said unexpectedly, then laughed, "Mommy is just so happy today. Shopping with you makes Mami's mood so peaceful "he explained with eyes that look meaningfully at his future son-in-law. Even though it is also included from his happiness at this time. However, that was not the real reason for the smile on his lips that did not end.

" Good Mam. Then I'm also happy "sut Elin smiled, "do you want to stop by where else, before we go home ? " he asked while controlling the car he drove on the streets of Jakarta.

Viona did not answer. However, his hand moved to pick up the flat object that was in the bag, "it does not seem like a child.we should go straight home. Your daddy's waiting ! " reply after looking at the phone screen.

" Good Mam. Tell Daddy that Mami will be there soon " said Elin laughing, driving faster, and Viona laughed from her seat.

Now that the car carrying Elin and Viona has arrived at the Vernandes family's courtyard, "let's go in "excited Viona, as she moves out of the car.

He realized the attitude of Elin who seemed reluctant to go down.

" I don't think I stopped by Mam. My body is so sticky and I want to take a quick shower" she told Viona.

The middle-aged woman was silent for a moment, turning her face into a clear look.

" It's night, for me to go home alone" he continued.

" A moment hemm.., people will ask why you didn't stop by "viona's pinta. Now Elin was silent for a moment. Actually, not that he did not want to stop by, only that he was upset because of his message that was not answered, while at home he was sure he would meet the cause of his chaotic mood.

" all right. Just a minute, mom. After that I have to go home ".

" Ready "reply Viona smiled happily.

Elin's forehead creased slightly as she entered the house and found no one there. The magnificent house is so quiet for people who live quite crowded.

There was not even a fussy sound from the little Naina, who was usually already heard from the main doorway.

" Is everyone sleeping, Mom ? " he asked in wonder, while observing every corner of the space he passed.

" Once. It might be "viona replied accordingly, because her eyes were looking over and over, with a slightly wrinkled forehead. He was still looking for his flat object at the time.

" Did Daniel also go Mam ? " asked Elin back, between her eyes that looked in wonder at her surroundings.

" Let's go to the back garden. Maybe everyone was there "take Viona and Elin nod, moving along. But just now he wanted to step suddenly a pair of hands clenched into his two eyes. It even felt like there was something in his body.

" Good God, what's going on ? " he cried in the middle of his closed eyes, and now his eyes were no longer covered by a pair of hands, but changed with a piece of cloth.

" Geez, who did this ? " he shouted into the row in the middle of his dark gaze, while there was no sound he could recognize, "Green is this you. I'm sure it's you "the mess, and it makes a stifled laughter sound.

" Green don't be crazy. What I want to do, open my eyes "the thrill becomes so, in the middle of his body which is now carried moving from his place, "Mom, help me "the door to Viona. However, the middle-aged woman's voice was no longer heard.

Elin's steps are now stopped, when the steps of someone who took her also stop, "Green don't scare me. I'll really hit you after this "shutter so upset. However, in the midst of his dark gaze he could feel there was a lot of illumination before him. The glint of light began to be felt from the corner of his closed eyes. And slowly the covering cloth in his eyes was opened.

" Surpriseeee " shouted everyone at the same time, just as she opened her eyes.

Elin's gaze was stunned, at the birthday cake before her and simultaneously her heart was pounding so fast, even her body was almost shaking at the moment.

His eyes were now on every face that was there. And find everyone closest to him.

There was no expression from his face at the moment, and it managed to make everyone's joyous atmosphere now slowly quieten.

" Green you know I don't like this" he said weakly, staring at his best friend who was now standing not far from him.

" Dear." call Daniel so gently.

" We all know what's going on. But from now on try not to hate this day again.the day you were born "he said to Elin and slowly Green also approached, "it is time I rejoice for your birthday Elin. Because we ourselves are happy, because you are in our midst "he said so calmly and looked deeply at the look in Elin's eyes who was now also staring at him.

" Nothing else to regret. Hasn't everything improved now ? " he continued with a smile so shady.

" Don't curse today again "plus Green, "Now you've seen the good side of the bad day, haven't you ? "

Elin paused for a moment and stared intently at Green's smile, then turned to the faces of everyone who were now looking at him meaningfully and waiting for a happy face from him.

" Take everything Elin. You see everyone is there for you today, " Green continued, pointing his hand at everyone.

" The candle almost melted" said Elin arrived. Making Green confused by what he meant, "you mean ? " tanyanya wonder.

" The candle almost melted Green" exclaimed Elin in a raised tone, pointing at the cake before him.

" Oh my God "reply to Green in a panic, "please quickly sing the birthday song "he exclaimed to everyone and without waiting for everyone to sing.

" Happy birthday, Happy birthday, happy birthday, happy birthday, happy birthday, happy birthday tofuuunnn. "singing everyone in such a hurry to remember the nearly melted candle.

" Elin blew out the candle " cried Green and Amel who were now coming closer to their side.

Elin still had a smile to see Amel's presence nearby, then took a deep breath to blow out the candles scattered on the birthday cake for him.

" Happy birthday Eliiinnnnn.n. " cried Green, Amel was so happy.and also Meili, Nathan and Alfin.

" Happy birthday son "excited the old people who were there. There were no parents present tonight, even Green and Amel's parents were there to celebrate his birthday.

" Happy birthday dear" said Daniel so gently, his heavy voice sounding so masculine tonight. In fact, he looks so handsome with a white coat that he uses, and looks more romantic with a pile of roses in his hand.

" It's not fair. How can you be so beautiful, while my appearance is like this "elin protested in the midst of everyone's words.and the do'a-pray for her now changed into everyone's laughter.

" You can still protest with something like this" exclaimed Green.

" Didn't you see Daniel's performance. If it's like this I look like an ash-up and Prince Green "protesting, making everyone stop laughing.

" What do you want. Everyone knows you're the Queen in the heart of the New York City prince "thread Amel and Daniel nodded approvingly, "Thank you my flower dear "he asked.

" God Sorry. Not to ignore ", said Elin, taking the rose in Daniel's hand.

" Not so is Elin. You're right there's no romantic "Green protest on her behavior.

" What he wants again "he doesn't understand.

" Maybe Green meant it this way" Daniel said with a moving hand pulling Elin's face in front of him, and without permission he kissed the woman's lips before everyone.

Elin's eyes rounded instantly with a body that had been sculpted. He had just kissed in front of his parents at this time.

His heart was pounding so fast, even if it was not held back, perhaps his body had already collapsed at this moment, as a result of enduring the overwhelming embarrassment.

" Happy birthday dear once again" said Daniel without guilt, after peeling long enough his lips.
