ALDEBY
|52.| Happy Birthday, By


Beby stared at his reflection in the mirror. Short sleeve light blue dress with little touch of stars at waist, long hair unravel with silver bandana at head, star bobble necklace, transparent flat shoes glass shoelaces, glass tub, as well as natural makeup that makes the aura of her beauty increasingly radiated.


"It's more, isn't it, guys?" beby asked Kiran and Lola, who were in the middle of the night, to look after her makeup.


"No, Iah!" lola Sahut. "Come hunted. It's twelve o'clock, nih!"


Beby looked at Kiran. Kiran who was looked at doubtfully like that also nodded.


Then, the three of them came out of Beby's room. At the door, there was Miko and Rama.


"Get older, less stubborn," said Miko.


Beby pursed his lips annoyed at Miko's words. In fact, in her shadow, Miko said sweet words while smiling widely. Her brother was unexpected.


"Say also to Aldef later, do not need long in the rooftop," continued Miko.


"His sister's birthday, tuh, said happy birthday, cake! Happy birthday, saengil chukkae. Uh, that's it!" beby Protest.


Miko laughed crisply. His palm moved to pat the top of Beby's head slowly. "My prayers never change, By. You have to be a better person and always be happy."


Beby smiled meaningfully. His hand turned towards Miko. He made her look at him in wonder.


"What, anyways?"


"The lizard?" beby said while grinning.


Lazy to respond to her sister, Miko chose to step back into the room. "When!"


The abandoned Rama hurriedly followed Miko. Before leaving the place, he said to Beby, "Happy birthday, By."


"Thank's, Brother."


The two men were invisible. At that moment, Beby and Kiran were slightly stunned by what they saw. Lola's figure is seen with a view attached to the direction where Miko disappeared.


Secretly, Beby and Kiran compactly held back a laugh.


"Just go there!"


The cry from Kiran that sounded jarring in Lola's ear made the girl realize. "What, anyway? My guy's been watching around."


Beby mangosteen, as if to believe in the reason Lola. "Yes. Hatiin. Around-around too, right?"


"It's not clear you two!" concluded Lola who makes Kiran and Beby compact.

Fitting on the stairs to the rooftop, Beby stared at his two best friends. Time has shown at 00:00. Now, Beby is officially getting older.


"Happy birthday, By," Kiran said.


"Don't forget the deal later" said Lola.


Beby smiled meaningfully. Both of his arms were stretched out, ready to hug Kiran and Lola. "Thank's, yeah. You want to be my best friend."


The action hugged each other like Teletubbies was over. Beby's birthday this time, feels very 'different'.


"The hunt's up!" exclaim Lola.


"Yes. I've been waiting for prince lo above," Kiran timpal.


The three compactly laughed crisply.


"If so, I go up, yes."


Getting a nod from his two best friends, Beby then climbed the stairs to the rooftop. Beby's smile spread along the foot of his level stepping on each step of the stairs. Her mind was filled with romantic scenes that made Beby's chest flowery. I hope tonight will be an unforgettable night for Beby.

Aldef sat side by side with Poppy in front of the ER room, waiting in a huff for news of Celine who was in the care of the doctor.


Aldef's brain is branched. He thought about how Beby was doing now. It felt like Aldef was coming back to get to his girlfriend, but his radar was asking to stay with Celine here.


Along the way to the hospital until this moment, a deep doubt enveloped Aldef's soul. If he had not come to see Beby, the girl would have been disappointed and sad. While if Aldef left Celine, there was only Poppy with him. Aldef still had the heart not to leave the Junior High alone.


At least, Aldef persisted on humanitarian grounds.


"Sorry, Brother."


Poppy's shrill voice made Aldef turn his head. "Why?"


Poppy, who was looking down, is now looking up. Staring straight at both Aldef's eye beads. "Sorry for ...." Poppy's words hang. He suddenly hesitated.


"Because...?"


"I'm sorry I took care of you brother."


Yes Allah .., please excuse Poppy.


Aldef chuckled softly. "It's okay."


"I don't know who else to ask for help. On Celine's cell phone, her last call was Kak Aldef. Sorry, Brother."


"But ...."


A middle-aged man in a typical white doctor's suit came out of the ER room, making Aldef and Poppy compactly stand up.


"Celine's family of patients?"


"I'm his sister, Doc" said Poppy. "My brother's fine, isn't he?"


The doctor smiled kindly. "Celine is fine. Fainted from shock when he fell and stared at a hard object."


Hearing that explanation, Aldef heaved a sigh of relief. "Can we take Celine now, Doc?"


"could. After the patient is transferred to the treatment room."


After saying thank you and the doctor left the ER area, two sisters took Celine who was asleep in bed out of the ER. Aldef and Poppy followed.


After passing through the passage that was a range of ten meters long, they arrived at Melati Room 1. This room consists of two beds of patients. One was occupied by Celine, and another was empty.


On the surface of the bedside wall, Aldef saw a stop contact. The man turned to Poppy. The girl with shoulder-length hair looked sling bag white.


"Pop, you got a charger in your bag?" ask Aldef.


"There, Brother. Got sister Celine. I saw the battery was ten percent." Poppy took out a charger from inside her bag.


"Thank's, yeah."


Aldef rushed to connect the charger with his phone. Shortly after, the black flat object lit up. Both eyebrows linked Aldef astonished when he saw the notification that was thick, and 33 missed-call.


Not yet had Aldef open one by one the incoming messages, Celine's voice distracting him.


"I ...."

The breeze of the night wind tickled the surface of Beby's skin as soon as he stepped on the last step of the stairs. Cold that felt bone-chilling. Still with a big smile, Beby walked slowly towards the pair of tables and chairs in the middle.


The girl looked to her right and left, looking for Aldef. Even at a time like this, the man was still preparing another surprise.


Beby continued to wait for Aldef's appearance. Waiting and waiting, 30 minutes passed. Beby began to wonder, what kind of surprise was the man preparing to take so long?


^^^Me:^^^


^^^Special, yes, the surprise? :D^^^


Both of Beby's hands started rubbing his free arm. The wind tonight is really fierce. Like there was an implied message, but Beby was unable to catch it.


Not wanting to give up or be so bad, Beby decided to keep waiting. Wait and wait until the time shows at 02:52.


And Aldef had not yet revealed the trunk of his nose.

"I ...."


Aldef turned to Celine as soon as he heard her name called. "Yes?"


Celine's eyes were wide open. But, his gaze hinted at emptiness. "This is the light why is it dead?"


'Deg!'


Aldef and Poppy exchanged looks. Clearly the lights in the room where they were at this moment were so bright.


"Sir .. This is Poppy." Poppy clasped Celine's hand.


The brother smiled widely. "Where? Where are you? Brother can't see you. The lights, dong, Pop."


Poppy and Aldef looked at each other. I was amazed by Celine's behavior.


"Celine, it's me."


"G ... Al, can you please turn on the lights? It's so dark."


"I call the doctor, yes, Brother," whispered Poppy who was answered with a nod by Aldef.


In his steps towards the exit of the room, Poppy's cry broke out. The black cloud lodged in his chest could no longer be contained.


Why, Brother? Why should I get to gini?
