Birthday Gift

Two weeks had passed since Renata asked Nathan to recheck their fertility. However, for some reason until Nathan's promised time, Renata doesn't ask him back. Whether the woman forgot or was able to make peace with the circumstances, Nathan did not know at all, which Nathan clearly did not intend to remind. The man pretended to forget.

Nathan was seen writhing, a sign that the man was about to wake up. Sure enough, the man slowly opened his eyes. The man's lips were seen publishing a smile, as soon as he saw Renata's face that still looked asleep. Nathan eroded the distance and peeked at his wife's forehead.

After that, Nathan sat down, then grabbed the phone that was on the nightstand. The man noticed that there were some messages coming into his phone.

"Cock early this morning, there's been a lot of messages coming in, huh?" nathan's mind with a frown. Then, the man began to open the message one by one. It turned out that the message was a happy birthday to him from his extended family and friends.

"It turns out I'm birthday today, but why didn't Renata say it at all? Usually, at midnight he congratulates me first, because he doesn't like to be preceded by others. Did he forget I had a birthday today?" nathan whispered to himself as he turned back to look towards Renata.

"He's not even up at this hour? he would usually wake up early and prepare breakfast and work clothes. Didn't he sleep last night fast huh? so it makes little sense that until this hour, he hasn't woken up yet, too" again Nathan's mind was busy guessing.

"Ah, stop! maybe he's so exhausted that he hasn't woken up at this hour. I can't think badly of him. Now, I'd better take a shower and prepare my own needs," Nathan finally smiled back as he climbed out of bed and stepped into the bathroom.

...ΩΩΩΩΩΩΩΩΩΩΩΩΩΩΩΩ...

Nathan came home from the office with a bent face. He waited all day for Renata to say happy birthday to him, but what he was waiting for did not come. Renata did keep calling him on the phone, but, like before, his wife was just asking if he had lunch or not, and what time he came home.

"Darling, why is your face tangled like that? was there a lot of office work?" renata asked as he greeted Nathan.

Instead of answering, Nathan scrunched his forehead, increasingly confused by Renata's attitude that seemed like nothing was forgotten.

"Hais, it seems like he completely forgot that today is my birthday," Nathan's inner annoyance.

"Darling, why are you quiet? are you tired?" again Renata asked.

"Yes, I'm tired today. I'm tired of waiting for someone's consciousness" Nathan said, ambiguous.

"meaning?" Renata clenched his forehead.

"none. I'm going to the room first. I want to take a shower and take a break" Nathan said as he passed away without waiting for a response from Renata.

Arriving at the door, Nathan opened the door slowly. However, it would be surprising that he saw a room that now looks very beautiful, decorated in such a way. On the bed there was a saying 'Happy birthday of my husband' and on it was a pile of gifts that Nathan did not know how many.

"Happy birthday, baby!" said Renata who apparently caught up with him from behind. In the woman's hand was a cake, complete with candles of the numbers 2 and 6 already lit.

Nathan turned his head and looked at the sweet smiling Renata towards him.

"Darling, is this all you did?" nathan and Renata asked, nodding.

"I'm sorry, honey. I didn't say it earlier than the others. I didn't forget at all, but I just wanted to give you a surprise. Now you blow this candle out!" renata said without stripping a smile from his lips.

Nathan smiled and walked over to Renata. Then, the man closed his eyes for a moment, to make a wish. Then, the man started blowing out the candle, then grabbed the cake from Renata's hand and placed it on the table. After that, he pulled the body of the wife, then hugged her tightly.

"Thank you, honey. Honestly, I can feel what it's like to hear a happy birthday, since being with you. I never heard that from my family before" Nathan said sincerely.

"Easy! the past, no need to remember. Now you open those gifts first! I have prepared it with great difficulty" said Renata as he headed towards the pile of boxes on the bed.

"A lot of it, honey. What the hell is it?"

"I prepared 26 gifts, according to your age. So you have to open it in sequence according to the number listed in the gift," said Renata.Yes, Renata has laced the numbers 1-26 in the wrapping paper of the gifts.

Nathan gets his body sitting on the edge of the bed and starts to open a gift that says number one. It turns out that the contents are an instant noodle, a famous brand in Indonesia.

"Instant noodles?" Nathan scrunched his forehead.

"Yes, instant noodles! I bought it on purpose because I know you like to eat it," Renata said, giving the reason.

"Easy! you don't have to remember that anymore. Now, you open another gift again," said Renata trying to divert the grief of the husband.

Nathan smiled again. He returned for a second gift and the others. It turns out that it has various kinds. There are light snacks, shirts, expensive watches, belts, shirts, shoes, perfumes and more. Now Nathan has arrived at a gift that reads the number 26.

Slowly, the man opened the gift. The man's eyes suddenly grew bigger to see the contents of the gift.

It turned out to be a photo of the USG, and it read 'You're going to be a Daddy!'.

"Th-this means what?" nathan asked with trembling lips.

"Can't you read it? You'll soon be a father, baby!" said Renata with eyes that suddenly dewy.

"You're not kidding, are you?" Nathan is still hard to believe.

"Not at all!" sahut Renata firmly.

"When did you know?"

"Two weeks ago. I can't wait for the day you promised. I went by myself to check, apparently the doctor said that I was pregnant. But, I decided to tell you, right on your birthday, as a gift for you," Renata explained.

"So, because of that, you're not taking me again to see the doctor?" Renata nodded her head, saying yes.

Nathan stood back up as he grabbed Renata's body into his arms. The man's eyes looked teary, completely moved because he did not expect that he would soon become a father.

"Thank you, honey. I promise I will take good care of you and our future children. I will be a husband on standby" Nathan said with a sumringah look.

"But, dear ..." Renata's face suddenly felt like thinking of something.

"But what?" Nathan scrunched his forehead.

"Sunday Dava and Nabila will be getting married in Indonesia. The doctor said, I was not strong enough to get on the plane. I'm forbidden to board the plane, honey," Renata said with a wistful look.

Yes, Dava and Nabila will soon have their marriage in Indonesia, after a relationship for two years, and Nabila's college is completed.

"For that matter leave it to me" Nathan said as he grabbed his phone.

The man then contacted Dava. No need to wait long, the call is already connected.

"Yes, Nath? what's up?" dava's voice came from the other end.

"I want your wedding and Nabila to be held in London" Nathan said without further ado.

"Hey, don't be so dong! everything is 95 percent ready. You don't want your heart to change its place" Dava refused.

"Renata was pregnant young, and she was forbidden to board the plane. So there's no way I'm leaving him here alone. Meanwhile, Nabila was my only sister, there was no way I wouldn't be present on that special day" Nathan said, giving the reason.

"Well, Renata's pregnant? congratulations, Nathan! but, the time has been very tight, Nath. Just one more week. Looks like it's gonna be hard if it's got to be done here,"

"For that matter, you calm down. I'll handle everything. You leave it to me. As for the parents, I'll tell them, and I'm sure they'll understand. You take it easy, it all costs me the responsibility,"

"Just as far as you are!" dava finally gave up.
