Sarah sits uneasily facing the small dining table inside her apartment, her eyes fixed toward her wall clock. Almost seven o'clock.
Sarah's ready before 6 for Dion's arrival.
Not because he was so impatient to meet the man who became his lover but because he wanted to talk about many things to Dion.
Sarah could no longer lie to Dion and herself that she had no feelings for Dion.
On the table was a large plate of spaghetti bolognaise and maccaroni shcotel, Dion's favorite.
Follow four slices of custard and salmon fish cake.
Sarah did not bother whether the dish was suitable for dinner, the most important of all was the menu that Dion liked the most.
A large red candle in the middle of the table adjacent to a pair of glass glasses containing wine that is no less red.
This evening, Sarah wants to make Dion feel special and give him a gift that might change the life of Dion and himself in the future.
Not long after the bell rang, Sarah had advised Mr. Amin, security and lobby guard below to let Dion go upstairs, without having to tell Sarah again.
Sarah opened the door, Dion stood in front of the door so masculinely using a black vintage long-sleeved blouse with black jeans and dark sneaker shoes.
Sarah greeted him using a loosely Korean-style floral ciffon dress. It looks simple and simple. Her long hair is curled upwards with a makeshift chignon model. Leave the child hair on his neck.
Sarah didn't want to appear too flashy for this moment, but in Dion's eyes tonight Sarah was like an extraordinarily beautiful goddess.
"Chelle, Chay..." Dion seemed to be hiding something behind his back.
"What's that?" ask Sarah curious
"Something you like..."
"What?"
Dion slowly took it out from behind his back.
A bouquet of beautiful three-color tulips, blending white, red and pink.
Sarah's eyes sparkled, it was her favorite flower. Dion knows very well.
Dion handed it to Sarah with a big smile, then his face approached with reddened lips.
Sarah pushed Dion's face with her palm. Rejecting Dion with a frowning face.
" One kiss.." - Pinta Dion.
Sarah's eyes dodged, pretending to be angry, but actually deep in her heart, she felt very uncomfortable with Dion's actions.
"You can bring that bouquet again." Sarah turned. Dion followed behind while chuckling.
"don't take it that way."
"Who's the one?"
"Yes, you are..." Dion sat facing the dining table, his hands outstretched to Sarah, handing her the bouquet.
Sarah greeted him with a triumphant smile,
"Thank you, Yon..." Then put the bouquet on a corner table.
Sarah heads to the fridge in the corner of her room and picks up a small birthday cake sprinkled with chocolate.
A white candle that was not how big, stuck on the tiny cake.
Dion smiled widely, his face was so bright, he did not expect Sarah to have taken the trouble to prepare a birthday cake for him.
Although it was very simple Dion felt his birthday this time felt very special.
Someone he loved so much, prepared a simple dinner and a birthday cake, which was just the two of them. Isn't that pretty amazing?
Sarah turned on the candle and lifted the small cake in front of Dion's face.
"Happy birthday my best friend, my good friend, Dion." he said.
Dion frowned, hearing the words that came out of Sarah's mouth.
"I'm your boyfriend, not your friend!" he was with a face that was irritated.
"I'm sorry Dion"
His whisper in his heart.
"Come on, make a wish first, " said Sarah.
Dion closed his eyes with a funny face, then blew out the candle.
Sarah took off the cookie plate on the table, then approached Dion's chair, then leaned over and kissed him on Dion's cheek. Tears slowly trickled down her cheeks, her heart breaking with guilt at the now hopeful man in front of her.
"Happy birthday, Dion." he whispered in a hoarse tone.
Dion who was shocked, was transfixed like a statue, his blood seemed to stop flowing. It was shocking when Sarah did this unusual thing. He always avoided coming into contact with Dion even though they had pledged their relationship as lovers for almost three months.
Sarah pulls her face, but Dion holds Sarah's hand. For a moment they looked at each other in such a close distance.
"Sadly..." Dion was stunned by the tears that melted in the corner of Sarah's eyes.
"you're crying?" Dion was glued to that face. Sarah immediately wiped her tears with the back of her hand. Then move away from Dion's chair and smile thinly.
"Why are you crying?"
"It's nothing..." Sarah immediately sat across the table and took out a plate and scooped spaghetti into it. Then he handed it to Dion.
A somewhat confused Dion greeted the plate.
"Why are you, how weird is that?" ask Dion.
Sarah did not answer, she just wanted to enjoy the quiet Dion's birthday dinner,
because maybe this was his first and last birthday night that he made especially for Dion.
At least, one day Dion recalled well, that they had one of the sweetest nights on Dion's special day, even though it had also been a slow day.
"May this dinner be enough to be my birthday present to you." Sarah said suddenly.
"This is my best birthday, Cay." said Dion.
those words felt very tight on Sarah's chest, making it even harder to say the things she had so painstakingly planned from this morning.
Sarah bribed into her mouth a small piece of salmon fish cake. The piece felt bland, despite having attempted to be chewed by it.
And when Sarah tried to swallow it, the little piece got stuck in her throat.
Dion watches Sarah's increasingly strange behavior, while putting spaghetti in her mouth.
They were both locked in a moment of silence, Dion felt Sarah was very different tonight.
"What's up, Cay...?" Dion could not stand the girl who was now like the wrong behavior in front of him.
Sarah shook her head as she pushed the wine glass in front of Dion.
"Cheers!" said rasping.
Dion raised the glass in his hand in confusion. When the glass clashed in a small clink. Sarah immediately pulled him and gulped him down with a red face.
Dion gulped it in one look.
Lu the two of them exchanged glances with the same face blushing.
"What's wrong with you, Cay...?" ask Dion sharply.
Sarah strengthened her heart and challenged the face of Dion who was sitting in front of her with a straight and deep gaze piercing all the way to her heart.
"I want us to talk tonight" Sarah's voice rang out. He really did not want to hurt Dion's feelings, because this man had been very kind to him.
He was so guilty of giving Dion hope with false things, which he could never make happen.
But shouldn't every mistake be corrected? Tonight he wants to put things back where they really are.
The title changes, but the story remains the same about the love story of Sarah and Raka.
