The Dark Heir
Birthday party

"Darling, is this suit suitable for Gerald?" ask my confused mother to choose clothes.

"Whichever is good, dear, you quickly choose the clothes" replied the father who looked hurriedly.

"But this one is also nice and looks comfortable" said my mother.Is it that difficult to choose clothes for babies?

"Then just use this one" said the father while pointing at the red shirt.Pad's choice is not too bad too.I quite like the design of his clothes.

" You're right, now help me get Gerald ready for the party" said my mother, dressed to me.

Today is Lilia's 5th birthday.That's why mom and dad bothered to choose me clothes, even though I had no problem wearing any clothes.

"Mom, are you ready?" asked Lilia who suddenly opened the door of my room.See Robert also followed from behind.Lilia looks very graceful with her lavender dress.Meanwhile Robert looks very dignified with his black tuxedo.

"We are ready Lilia, see Gerald is also ready," replied the mother while holding me.Lilia immediately ran over to me with sparkling eyes.

"Gerald! you look so handsome!" lilia said while stroking my head.

"Is it just Gerald that's being praised?" ask me as if I feel like I am being outmatched.

"No, you look handsome too" Lilia replied with a sweet smile.

I saw Robert who was still at the door.He just smiled looking at me without a word.

"Robert, come here", call my mom.It seems like mom doesn't want Robert to feel alone.Robert walks over to me and mom.His appearance really stupefied me.The black luxedo and his bow tie make Robert's aura radiate.

" You're good-looking Gerald", praises Robert.I just fell silent, not expecting Robert to praise me.

"You look good to Robert too, Gerald must have thought so" replied the mother as if to understand what I was thinking.Robert smiled again.He then stroked my head with a wide smiling face.

"Then let's get off, the guests will have to wait" the father took along with Robert and Lilia's hands.

We got out of the room and got ready to enjoy this festive party.

...*****...

My eyes widened to see the guests who came to the party.From parents to children everything exists.I began to think that it seems like my family is quite well-respected in the kingdom of Heragon, considering the number of guests who came.

"How are you Albert?" asked a man who suddenly appeared beside my father.

"Arthur! you came to this party!", replied my father.

"Of course I came, Diana whined to me to come to this party" Arthur replied with a laugh.

Meanwhile I saw a brunette beside Arthur.It looks like it was his son called earlier.He was seen carrying a box tied with a red ribbon.

"Happy birthday, Lilia" Diana said, handing over the box.

"Thank you Diana! come here come with me", said Lilia while pulling Diana's hand.

"Children are growing faster" said a woman in a blue dress near Arthur.

"Hello Rachel turned out you came too", said my mother with joy.I think Rachel and my mother are friends well, considering that her husband and son are good friends with my family.

"So this is the youngest?" rachel said while looking at me.

"Looks handsome like his brother huh", continued Rachel with a smile to see me and Robert.See the face of Robert who still looks cold.I think Robert is not too fond of the crowd.Also I am sure Robert will feel uncomfortable when noticed by many girls his age.

This party is quite lively.In addition to the many guests who came, I also saw the waiter who looks very busy.They paced while carrying plates, glasses, even some who brought trolleys containing snacks for invited guests.

"Hello Rachel, Elise, how are you?"sahut a woman.I turned to the direction of the voice.See a woman in yellow dress along with a man dressed in white.The woman's stomach looks distended, is she pregnant?

"Hello Tiffany, very good news, I didn't expect you to come to this party, weren't you pregnant?" my mother said, My guess is right, this woman named Tiffany is pregnant.

"Wouldn't you give birth so much rest?" ask Rachel.

"Thank you for worrying about me Rachel, but I'm really fine" Tiffany replied with a smile.

"Hey Felix come here, man", call my father to the man next to Tiffany.

"I'll go, baby, if you need anything, get somebody to call me?" the man named Felix whispered to Tiffany.

"Alright, take care of yourself baby, and don't get too drunk" replied Tiffany asserting.

"Dear, don't get too tired" Felix responded with a kiss on Tiffany's forehead, and left with Arthur and Dad.

"How many months is your gestational age Tiffany?" my mother asked Tiffany, who was still waving to Felix.

"It's been 8 months" replied Tiffany.

"Wahh, then hopefully your son and my son can be good friends huh" said my mother while looking at me.

"Wahh, so this is the youngest?" said Tiffany, bringing her face closer to me.

"Looks handsome, right? just like her brother" Rachel replied.

Tiffany nodded in agreement, seeing that she strongly agreed with Rachel.

Holy hooch! I forgot that Robert was following this party.Take my eyes off Robert.It turns out he was still standing listening to the conversation next to my mother.It makes me feel sorry for him.

"How about we move to my balcony? the view looks good from there", take my mom to Rachel and Tiffany.

"All right, I agree" Rachel and Tiffany answered simultaneously.

We walked out of this party to my mother's room.See Robert, who was silent and speechless, went to her room.She did not seem to enjoy this party very much, and chose to be alone.

...*****...

Mothers were talking on the balcony of the room, while I was on the bed doing nothing.I want to get big fast.At least so that my heart is not boring.Clear left and right, nothing interesting.It's very boring.

Suddenly I heard someone open the door of the room.Seeing a small child who was none other than Robert.It seems without Lilia he became a very lonely child.Slowly he walked over to me who was in bed.

Robert sat next to me lying down and looked at me with a cold look.

"Is being a baby good?" said Robert.

I wanted to yell at Robert. Being a baby is boring.

"Are you lonely, too, Gerald?" robert said while stroking my head.

Honestly, I felt very bored and lonely.Robert's presence at least made me not feel lonely anymore.

"Hurry up my brother, so we can play and run around together outside" Robert said, putting on a sad face.

I feel sorry for Robert.He is just an ordinary little boy who wants a friend.Entah what happened, so make him have no friends.I became increasingly want to grow up quickly.At least so I can accompany Robert to play.

Robert kissed my forehead and stepped away from the room.He turned to look at me and waved his hand and closed the room door.

After Robert came out, I looked back at the ceiling.I reflected on what Robert said earlier.

I want to get bigger fast...

Seriate...
