Actually Love
Chapter 261_Making a Request
The twilight in the sky of the Capital City, looked beautiful with an orange tinge among the white clouds that gathered.
Neva was in the living room when a car stopped in front of the gate of her house. Security allowed the car to go inside.
"Miss, there's a guest for Non Neva" the assistant told Neva.
Neva nodded and placed her snack on the table. "Thank you, Bi" he said. Then, he stepped up and stepped into the living room. He thought if the guest was Lula or his college friend first.
"Hi," she screeched after finding out who came to see you. "You ..." he pointed with a small laugh.
Someone stood up and tosaw him.
"How are you Miss?" Ask.
"Well, fine," Neva replied. "Please sit down" Neva.
"Am I interrupting?" Ask that someone.
"No, I'm relaxed again" Neva replied. "How are you doing Raizel?"
"I am, as always. I'm busy and I haven't been able to walk normally" Raizel replied. "Oh, let's go together" Raizel continued.
Neva raised her eyebrows to think. Would it be okay if she went with Raizel?
"It's my birthday today" Raizel said. He hoped Neva would accompany him. Neva nodded. Yes, he knows that today is Raizel's birthday. The entire television station broadcast it from morning to evening.
"Ok," in the end Neva nodded. It didn't feel good if he refused this invitation. In the past, he had promised Raizel to always be good friends. He'll tell Vano this later. "I'll change my clothes first."
"No need," Raizel immediately denied it. "You're so pretty. Come on."
"T - t- but ...." Neva suddenly stuttered.
"No need" Raizel said again and he stood up. His hand stalled and took Neva's hand. "Come," he asked. Neva stood up and pulled her hand from Raizel's. However he has given his heart to Vano, he has chosen Vano as his lover, which means he has to reduce interaction with the opposite sex.
Raizel smiled disappointed at the rejection. "Emm you want to say goodbye to Auntie?"
"Mama's not home" Neva replied. Raizel nodded.
Then, they both got into the car. Raizel drove his car slowly.
"Happy birthday, Raizel" Neva said. He looked towards Raizel.
"Thank you guys" Raizel replied. He turned towards Neva for a moment and then he looked back at the road.
"I sent you a message but only tick one" Neva said.
Raizel nodded, "From last night I deactivated my phone" he replied.
"I'm sorry I didn't prepare a gift for you" Neva said.
"You're a lousy, stingy friend. You should have prepared a gift for me" Raizel protested. He slightly widened his lips as he said that.
"Haha, what do you want?" Neva. Sure, he'll definitely buy Raizel a present.
"Your heart" Raizel replied quickly. The answer immediately drew a smile on Neva's lips. He turned and watched the road ahead.
"Raizel," she called him slowly.
"Hmm."
"Me, me and Brother Vano are ready" Neva said slowly but clearly.
"Oh," Raizel responded flatly, "Congratulations to both of you," he continued.
Neva nodded, "Thank you," he replied. Silence, there is no longer the voice of the two of them. Raizel parked his car in front of Neva's favorite ice cream cafe.
"We're here?" Ask Neva. He turned towards Raizel.
"Yup," Raizel replied with a nod. "I'll treat you to ice cream" he said.
"Hey, I should have treated you as an apology for not preparing the gift for you" Neva said, but he later found out that he could not treat Raizel. "Haha, it should be you who treat me" he said with a shy laugh. He just remembered that he didn't bring anything, a bag, a wallet and even his cell phone.
"However, I used to wear this" Raizel said, trying to wear his dentures and contact lenses. Then the glasses are thick.
"Done," Neva said with a satisfied smile. Raizel's hair comes forward and bangs. This style made Raizel a geeky man.
"Am I handsome Miss?" Raizel asked in a slurred and funny manner. Neva laughed hearing that.
"Very bad, you .. you're so ugly," Neva answered bullying her with a laugh.
"Well kendil or lutung kasarung? Which is better?" Raizel asked with a geeky expression. She was a role artist so she was very masterful of all sorts of expressions on her face. Neva is laughing.
"You're worse than both" Neva replied.
"Alright, I am a prince of the ugly, ugly" Raizel said, raising a little of his bangs. "Come," he asked. He opened the car door. "Prince is ugly and the princess is beautiful" Raizel said, holding Neva's hand. Then, the two of them walked together and went inside. Neva chose the most marginal seat, it was because she was afraid that anyone would still be able to recognize Raizel's face.
They both sat facing. There's a birthday cake on their desk. Neva ordered it secretly. He gave his watch as payment.
"Happy birthday, happy birthday, happy birthday Raizel, good luck, long life" Neva melodiously but quietly sang a birthday song for Raizel. He was a little grateful that the watch was with him, so at the very least, he could give something to Raizel. "Yeyyyy ..." he clapped cheerfully. Raizel looked at him with a smile from earlier.
"Make a request" Neva said before allowing Raizel to blow out the candles. Raizel nodded, he immediately lowered his head and closed his eyes.
Neva watched him, watching Raizel who was bowing in front.
Done it.
"It is," Raizel said. He raised his face and looked at Neva.
"Okey, blow it up" Neva saw the cake and the small candle wax that was on top of the cake.
"You can also make a request" Raizel said. Neva.
"It's your birthday" Neva replied.
Raizel nodded, "Make a request for me" he said. Neva smiled hearing that.
"I pray to God that Raizel will always be healthy, live a long, successful life and that we remain good friends" Neva said. Raizel smiled faintly at Neva's prayer. The last sentence of Neva is the opposite of what he said.
"Well, blow out the candle" Neva said. Raizel nodded and slowly blew the small candles.

At the same time in a different place.
"I just got off the plane" said someone from his phone. He's making a phone call to Vano.
"I'm waiting in ..." Vano hasn't had time to finish his sentence, his eyes seeing a figure he knows. His hands were raised and waving. Before long, someone saw a wave of his hand.
"I went there" he said and immediately disconnected the call. He stepped definitely by holding a small bag on his shoulder. His smile was as full of blooming roses. "Did I keep you waiting?" Ask after arriving in front of Vano.
"I just arrived too" replied Vano. They both met at the airport. Not a real deal but there are a few coincidental moments. Yesterday they had a chat and it turned out that the arrival time of their plane was not much different. "How many days are you in Arnis?" Ask Vano.
"Just two days" replied Arnis. He's got a two-day business need in the Capital.
"Your car's here?" Ask Arnis.
"Already" replied Vano. Vano asks the driver for the keys and he and Arnis leave the airport together.
"Have you booked a hotel?" Ask Vano.
Arnis nodded, "Already," he replied. Then he told me which hotel he was staying at.
"We stopped by for a while okay," said Vano.
"Where?" Ask Arnis.
"Buy something" replied Vano. "For my girlfriend," he immediately continued. "He likes ice cream."
