Some days Aresh's head is dizzy because of Ruby. Because since the girl decided to resign from her company on the grounds of wanting to go on vacation, even Ruby never returned a message let alone answered a phone call from Aresh.
"Loh, loh, loh. Mommy's kid keeps moody?" Naura sat next to her son who was sitting pensively on a park bench.
"Mom." Only one word came out of Aresh's mouth, after which the young man looked straight ahead.
"Resh, Mommy noticed how lately you've lost your spirit. What's actually going on? Do you have a problem?" asked Naura, who actually only wanted to test the honesty of her eldest son.
"It's okay, Mom. There are only a few problems in the company" Aresh replied. Actually, she was still embarrassed to admit her feelings for Ruby in front of her mother, because at that time Ruby had twice rejected her love. So he thought that the girl must have really disliked him.
"Oh, huh? Is your new secretary not a Ruby competitor?" ask Naura.
Aresh did not answer. The young man actually exhaled his breath violently hearing Ruby's name called. "Don't mention her name again, Mom."
Naura put on her smile hearing Aresh's words. "Yes, if you don't want to talk about an irresponsible secretary it's okay. Now let's talk about your birthday party that's only 3 days away."
Aresh stared at the mother. Because he was busy thinking about Ruby, he even forgot that soon he would have his 28th birthday. A pretty good age to get married, she thought.
"Mom," call Aresh.
"Yes, honey."
"May we not have a birthday party? It's enough to be celebrated with the house."
"Well, why not celebrate, honey? You are now the head of a large company. Your birthday party should have been celebrated and invited many of your friends, relatives, and business colleagues."
"Why?" naura asked, but her son was silent.
"This is the result if you don't want to be honest with Mommy, Aresh. You have a problem but you don't want to tell Mommy the same story. There is a problem you are alone, so now you are upset yourself. Try since the beginning of your story with Mommy, Mommy will definitely help you find a way out." Naura pretended to be angry and annoyed at her son for him to open up to her.
Seeing the mother angry, Aresh hurriedly apologized.
"Mom, Aresh apologized. Mommy don't be mad, yeah." Aresh hugged Naura's arm and leaned on her shoulder. "Alright, Aresh will tell you. From now on there won't be any more that Aresh covers up." Aresh paused his words for a moment. "Aresh is actually Aresh in love with Ruby, Mom, but Ruby rejects Aresh on the grounds of not loving Aresh. Now that he's resigned from the company, it must be because of that problem. Maybe now he hates Aresh a lot."
Naura gave a smile listening to the outpouring of her son's heart. "Patience, Honey. Mommy is sorry to hear that" Naura said.

Aresh's birthday has finally arrived, and now the young man's birthday party is celebrated at the same place where Aresh and Ruby first met at that time.
"Aska, why are my eyes wearing all closed?" aresh asked as his sister led him out of the car.
"This Aresh guy how the hell is it? Today is my brother's birthday. If Bang Aresh's eyes are closed, it means there's a special surprise for Brother." Aska answered and chuckled.
Aresh snorted, in fact he had no appetite for doing this kind of thing. Even his birthday party did not want to, but the mommy continued to force until finally he chose to obey. For Aresh, congratulations from his family and brother were more than enough. All this because Ruby who makes him upset because he just left after rejecting his love.
