My Little Bride
Episode 63
In the morning, Nafiza was still opening and closing her eyes slowly like a flickering person as a golden beam of light barged in through the white window of the room, Nafiza and Brian's room. Nafiza spread her arms wide and rubbed her eyelids which still felt heavy. Nafiza thought for a moment it felt like she wanted to connect again, her sleep because she did not have any activities. Graduated from school but has not yet applied to the University. He was really a temporary unemployed.
"Wake up my dear Nafizaku" Brian's voice as he occasionally patted Nafiza's shoulder.
"Hem you're awake?" in the absence of his eyes slowly, Brian sat beside him and Brian's appearance was neat. "You're going to work today?"
"Yes my work in the office is very much, I have to finish it immediately"
"Are you feeling better? the doctor will still tell you to rest, there is still 1 day left you should stay at home" Nafiza sat herself beside Brian, he reminded the rest schedule written on the doctor's letter. Brian had already spent 2 days resting at home.
"I've been cured anyway, I regularly take medicine and vitamins so now I'm really healthy" Brian stroked Nafiza's hair slowly.
"Yes, don't eat too late"
"Yes, I'm leaving, yeah" Brian kissed Nafiza on the forehead.
"Be careful my husband" Brian smiled and nodded his head slowly, reaching for his bag on the table and exiting the room to go to work.
Nafiza spread her gaze, she thought what she would do today.
Cringe Cringe
The sound of Nafiza's cell phone rang, she immediately picked it up from the top of the nightstand. The call came from Tita.
"Hello"
"Happy birthday Nafiza, may long healthy life always, given a lot of sustenance and quickly have children" Tita's voice loudly full of enthusiasm.
"What date is Ta?"
"You don't see the calendar right now, August 1st, your birthday"
"Oh I haven't remembered a date if it wasn't a school day, hehe. Thank you, you remember that"
"Together, let's meet"
"Well, we'll see you at the regular cafe at 11"
"okay"
"Then I'll take a shower and get ready first, I'll see you at Ta's cafe"
"Daaahhhh" Nafiza hung up. He squeezed his cell phone.
"Brian knows it's my birthday?" Nafiza was a little disappointed, Brian's attitude from yesterday and today was normal. As if I didn't know.
***
Nafiza was driving her car, still a little rowdy. Too fast and overtaking when Brian had warned him not to drive a car before he took a driving course and had a SIM but somehow the feeling of disappointment that enveloped him made him brave and did not obey Brian's orders. Even Mr. Ramli's offer to deliver him also he refused, Nafiza's heart was in a fog because he hoped Brian gave him a birthday greeting.
Nafiza has arrived at the cafe where she and Tita will meet, after parking her car she immediately goes inside. Apparently Tita had arrived first, she was seen sitting in a chair and at the front desk Tita there was something special. A small birthday cake with the number 18 candle that has been lit, Nafiza is greeted by a smile sumringah Tita that makes her so moved.
Happy birthday to you
Happy birthday to you
Happy birthday to Nafiza
May you live long
Tita even sings a song to Nafiza while clapping her hands, Nafiza sits herself in front of Tita.
"Happy birthday dear friend now quickly blow out the candles" Nafiza could not stop smiling, then she blew the candles on the cake again to applaud Tita.
"You've bothered to buy Ta's cake"
"Don't bother, it's your special day"
"Once again thank you very much Ta" suddenly Nafiza's face turned sad.
"Why is Fiz your face sad? did something happen between you and Brian today?"
"There's no Ta, it's like Brian doesn't know it's my birthday"
"What time?"
"Yes his attitude this morning was also ordinary even now he had gone to work, if he knew he might have said it and asked me to go for a walk"
"Don't you tell him it's your birthday today?"
"I also forgot if you didn't say it first"
"Pity, how sad your fate is Fiz" Nafiza increasingly bent her face.
"You just told Brian to tell you it's your birthday, maybe he's completely forgotten before it's too late"
"Hem just let Ta if he does not remember, already do not discuss it again we better eat this cake seems good" Nafiza took a knife that was beside the cake.
"Yes quickly cut the cake" Nafiza and Tita spent the afternoon together.
It's getting dark Tita decides to go home while Nafiza chooses to go to Brian's office, she's still wondering if Brian really doesn't know it's his birthday.
Nafiza had already reached Brian's office, walked into the lobby on the elevator and now she had reached the door of her husband's room. There's Troy sitting at the front desk.
"Miss what's the need to come here?" ask Troy.
"I want to see Brian, he's in there, isn't he Troy?"
"Some, please miss in" Troy knocked on the door and opened it for Nafiza, she went straight inside. Troy shut the door again.
Seen Brian who was busy with a computer in front of him, he did not glance at Nafiza in the slightest.
"Are you busy?" the sound of Nafiza shocked Brian.
"I just stopped by to see Tita"
"Ooohhh" Brian resumed his work.
"Brian do you know what date it is today?" tanya Nafiza ventured.
"August 1st, why?"
"It seems like she really doesn't know it's my birthday" Inner Nafiza.
"There's nothing" Nafiza rolled up the rope on the sling bag she was wearing.
"You're here between Ramli's men?" ask Brian while typing his computer keyboard.
"I brought my own car" heard Nafiza Brian immediately stop his activities and stared intently at Nafiza.
"I would have said you have to drive first and get a SIM, you are not stable driving the car" he said.
"But the proof is that I'm okay to get here"
"Now you can get here but later if anything happens how? why don't you listen to my words" Brian spoke with a higher intonation.
"Why are you yelling at me? you don't believe in my abilities?" Nafiza was also stirred by emotions.
"Yes, you don't know much about driving a car yet, I've banned you but you don't obey!"
"Brian you're so annoying and selfish!" Nafiza stomped her feet and went to walk out of Brian's room, her heart ached. His birthday was a bad thing.
"Where are you going!" Brian goes after Nafiza and pulls her hand.
"I want to go home!" Nafiza brushed Brian's hand.
"I'll drop off" Brian pulls Nafiza's hand back out of Brian's room together. "Troy please turn off the computer" he said past Troy's desk.
"Good sir"
Brian and Nafiza are out of the office and now on the highway, Brian drives Nafiza's car. There was no talk of either of them, Nafiza turned her face to the window, so sad once in a while she wiped her tears.
They had reached the house, Nafiza hurriedly got down from the car directly into her house. Brian went back to chase her and held her hand.
"What's wrong with you? why are you acting like this?" ask Brian.
"You freak, yelling at me for trivial things when you've never been angry with me before" Nafiza's tears unstoppable. Brian pulls Nafiza's hand away to their backyard.
When Nafiza reached the backyard aghast, small lanterns neatly decorated in their yard, in the swimming pool there are small bowls of red candles and hundreds of roses floating on it.
Nafiza bit her lips and her eyes re-glazed as she looked at the banner attached on it.
HAPPY BIRTHDAY TO MY WIFE, NAFIZA
I LOVE YOU 💕
Nafiza wiped her tears this time not tears of sadness but tears of happiness. Brian flanked Nafiza's hand towards a wooden table with two chairs. There is a birthday cake, red candles and a bouquet of flowers.
Nafiza sat on a chair in Brian's follow, they sat facing each other.
"Thank you I don't think you know it's my birthday"
"Where I may not know my wife's birthday" Brian clasped Nafiza's hand and handed her a medium-sized box with a gold ribbon. "Happy birthday dear" he said with a smile.
"Yes"
"Open the card"
Nafiza opened the box, she lifted up the contents.A pink lingerie.
"Is this why the gift is?"
"You've never worn that outfit with me"
"I do have some and I don't wear them"
"It's a wonder if this one's a special gift from me so you have to wear it"
"Easter!!"
"Hehe, I gave it all to you. Home, a jewelry car so once in a while that is useful to me and to you is okay" Nafiza narrowed her eyes looking at Brian. "How about you want to thank me right away with the lingerie" Brian walked over to Nafiza and carried her bridal style.
"I haven't blown a candle and cut a cake" Brian took her inside.
"Later on, we'll continue with his birthday"
Within seconds Nafiza was already in the room leading to their love match.
"Can you?" brian asked, Nafiza nodded slowly.
Tonight is a long birthday night for Nafiza.
