Consider Me Exist, My Husband
Expect it

Galvin's silence made the Assistant confused because he did not get a response from his boss. He also asked.

"Is there a problem, sir? If there is a problem I can ask for our meeting with Chairman Lee at the retreat tomorrow" he said.

Galvin thought for a moment, I don't know what he thinks the Assistant knows.

"No, there's no need to back off Martin. Where's the file let me sign it"

Martin handed over the white paper and immediately Galvin signed.

After the departure of his assistant Galvin pensive there.

He stared at the calendar on the desk. Tomorrow is Marisa's birthday, every October 10th Galvin is always made confused by himself.

On his wife's birthday Galvin never wished Marisa a happy birthday. He was too embarrassed even though just saying congratulations, Galvin preferred to work rather than celebrate the special day of the wife.

But even so, Galvin always felt bad made.

Let him pretend to forget Marisa's birthday, anyway in previous years he never said and if tomorrow he said happy birthday it would be very strange. Thought Galvin

***

Twelve o'clock at night as usual Marisa was lying on the bed without falling asleep for a second.

Today is on his birthday, his age is growing. She should have been happy but Marisa felt her birthday was the saddest of days.

Marisa looked towards the door, hoping that behind the door the husband was preparing a surprise for Marisa.

But baby, that hope will never be realized.

Marisa smiled bitterly considering her ridiculous desire, where maybe Galvin just suddenly entered while carrying a birthday cake like the husbands out there, just saying the man never.

Drt.... Drt.... Drt....

The ringing of Marisa's cell phone made the master flinch in shock, Marisa knitted her eyebrows when she got a call in the early hours like this.

He took the rectangular object and listed the name of a man who was none other than Marisa's business partner.

Marisa's forehead shriveled, not wanting to make herself curious Marisa also finally picked up the phone connection.

"Hallo?"

"Happy birthday, Marisa... Happy 29th birthday... Happy birthday" he said.

"Abrian? How do you know my birthday?"

The man did not answer immediately but the voice call was turned into a video call, behind the phone screen showed a man who was lighting a candle on a triangular birthday cake.

"Hey Marisa... Happy birthday, I hope I'm the first to say this to you"

Marisa's eyes are made to look glassy, not because it's nice to get a speech from her friend, Marisa actually feels sad.

"Am I the first to say it?"

Marisa nodded slowly.

"Yes... Thank you, Abrian, but you don't have to bother making this for me. I'm not feeling good"

"Absolutely not bothered, I'm just happy to be able to celebrate your year's money. Unless you're disturbed hahaha.... "

Marisa laughed lightly while shaking her head.

"Thank you, Abrian, I'm quite surprised if you know my birthday"

"That's not hard for me, though,

Now it's time you made your wish... Make a wish" Abrian's orders.

Marisa nodded and started to close her eyes.

Abrian was silent while staring at the beautiful face in front of him.

Marisa said all her hopes were in her heart.

Oh my... I hope at the age of 29 I can make my own choices without any hindrance...

I hope happiness will soon come to pick me up...

I hope Devano is always happy if someday I have decided my wish.

I hope Galvin also gets happiness so that we can be calm in each other's way.

"Amen.... "

"Have you??" Ask Abrian.

"Already"

"Color you can't blow the candles, so I'll blow it in your place"

Whoo....

Marisa's tears escaped with the candle.

Abrian stared softly at the beautiful face that was crying withstanding the already unbearable pain.

Marisa tried to wipe away her tears, but her crying was getting louder and unstoppable. His heart felt throbbing pain and very sore.

Marisa tries to cover her face with both palms until the phone she is holding falls on the bed, Marisa is embarrassed by Abrian but she can't stop crying either.

"Hiks..... Hix.... Why would... It hard... Once... Hix.... "

Abrian stroked the screen of his phone black, he could only hear Marisa's crying voice without being able to see the full face of the wound, it had been almost a year he became a business partner Marisa. He knew enough of this woman's life from some of the investigations she had done in secret.

This beautiful and meek woman managed to make Abrian fall in love without Marisa knowing, the attention and support of Abrian did not make Marisa waver to turn away from Galvin.

Marisa remained faithful waiting for her husband even though Galvin never paid any attention to Marisa.

Marisa's cries slowly began to subside, she removed the remains of the sprinkles in her eye patch and returned to holding the phone that was still connected to the video call.

Even Marisa's smile was displayed as if saying that she was okay.

"I'm sorry, I'm so upset" said Marisa with a small laugh.

"It's okay, I won't make fun of you" Reply Abrian, they laughed again.

"Oh yeah, what do you want my gift from me?"

"Emmm... What yes?" Marisa pretends to think.

"I want your company to promote more food in my cafe"

Marisa's answer made Abrian chuckle, abrian was indeed a CEO in a television station company. Last year Marisa started promoting a cake product she made through one of her televisions.

But when Marisa's contract is up, Abrian actually offers a new contract on the condition that Marisa cafe every three times a week must deliver some food to its employees. Not without reason abrian did this, of course because he wanted to always be tied to Marisa.

Just like Marisa who did not waste this, she also agreed to the contract until now.

"Haiss... You are, for that matter you don't have to worry. A lifetime cooperation contract is not a problem for me" Cebik Abrian.

"I don't want anything, abrian. Just making a surprise like this is more than enough for me"

"Thank God if you're happy. Well, rest then it's midnight you should've slept from last night"

"Alright, thanks again, Abrian. I can't repay your kindness, good night"

"Yes, good night too"

Just now Marisa's about to turn off the phone all of a sudden Abrian called her name.

"Marisa wait...!!"

"Yes Abrian, what's wrong?"

Abrian did not immediately answer, for some reason he was very difficult to say something that he really wanted to say.

His tongue was suddenly twisted and his throat felt choked.

"Abrian??"

"Huh?? O-oh... N-there's nothing. Turn off the phone and go to sleep immediately"

"alright... "

Marisa ended the call, then put the phone back down and lay down to start sleeping in the morning.
