The Fiftieth Thousand and One Week
Shoes for Tiara

Today was Tiara's birthday, Lisa was sitting in front of the dressing table, she was staring at the neatly wrapped gift. He also prepares birthday cakes, even snack packs for children.

Maybe people think Lisa is crazy, she prepared all that for her dead son. But Lisa prepared all this for Tiara's happiness, even if Tiara was no longer in the world, but I will make Tiara happy with the prayers that I always pray and today I want to celebrate Tiara's birthday together with the orphans in a foundation not too far from where I live, all the parcels I prepared were 100 packs, double-decker cookies and food I ordered to eat with the orphans at the foundation later. The money I got all this from the writing I wrote, hopefully I get always a blessing.

Today I asked Mas Faris for help and I am grateful that Mas Faris would be happy to help me.

Alena, Ipah and Tasya also I invited, Tasya even brought gifts for Tiara. I was sad when I saw the gift brought by Tiara, maybe if Tiara was still there he would be very happy with all this.

Now Faris and others have come by using a car, the day Faris brought a rather large car deliberately let everything fit.

"Pah, thank you," said Lisa when she saw Ipah so beautiful with a blue color gamis in wear today, natural makeup makes the beauty of Ipah so radiant.

"Together, I'm sorry Mas Fahmi can't come," said Ipah unwell. Fahmi's at work, so he can't come today.

"It's okay," Lisa said in a soft tone.

Faris was helped by his personal driver put everything in the car, now after some time finally finished and they went straight to Tiara's tomb first.

Do I have to be sad or happy? But I can't cry, I don't want a sad Tiara up there.

"Oh yeah, Rizal and his new wife, did you tell me?" Asked Ipah carefully, he was afraid that Lisa would be upset.

"I told Pah, but he was Pah's father. He said he wanted to come, I also chat Mas Rizal we are walking towards the tomb of Tiara," Lisa replied in a soft tone and Ipah nodded. Hopefully Rizal can come, that's Ipah's hope. In any case Ipah wants to see Tiara happy in heaven there.

"Mona, let's get ready! Today's Tiara's birthday, we come to Tiara's grave huh, Lisa also came there," Rizal said in a soft tone.

"Customers......"

Instead of answering what Rizal said well, Mona instead slammed the plate filled with rice, making Rizal very furious and his eyes immediately fiery.

"Mas, what the hell did you do to come to your son's grave? He's dead, after all, if he's a birthday, a dead person who's still dead, won't live anymore" Mona said, she was furious when Rizal invited her to Tiara's grave.

"Say me! You want to meet Lisa right, the reason for Tiara's grave all," accuse Mona with a dislike look.

"As for you, I'm not going there. I also forbid you to go there as well" Mona firmly concluded.

Rizal brought himself closer to Mona, he was eager to slap Mona's smooth cheek but he didn't. He immediately broke his intention.

"Mona, Tiara is my son....."

"Mas, if you acknowledge him as a child, the rules during his life you loved him, you just never loved him, right, then when there was no you said it was your son," mona's laughter was so echoing as if it was mocked Rizal.

Rizal does not fight, he is very weak considering the time Tiara is still alive, let alone affection, eating well Rizal rarely give, just ask for shoes until the end of illness and died.

Now that Lisa and the others have arrived at the tomb, Lisa looks here and there but there is no arrival of Rizal.

"She wanted to come, but she hasn't come yet" Lisa said in a sad tone. Patience son, if your papa does not come you do not be sad, I rub my son's headstone, but I do not shed tears. I'm sure I'm strong to face everything today.

Half an hour waiting for Rizal and Mona never come too, finally Lisa and the others who celebrate Tiara's birthday today. The ones who blew the candles were Alena and Tasya.

"Happy birthday, son. It's a gift for you baby, the shoes you want," Lisa said and placed her card box on top of Tiara's grave. I realized Tiara would not open a gift from me, but I only gave her her last wish in her lifetime. "Shoes For Tiara"

Ipah shed his tears, unable to hold back his tears. Faris from earlier rubbed Lisa's back, hoping Lisa would always be strong.

At first glance Lisa saw the image of Tiara who was so smiling happily, making Lisa also smile happily.

Finally after finishing celebrating Tiara's birthday at Tiara's tomb, now Lisa and the others immediately went to the foundation.

Rizal and Mona don't come either.
