...🍃Happy Reading🍃...
Fabio opened the door slowly. He asked Ayana and Zayyan to enter immediately, but the woman looked at him doubtfully.
"Come in ! They are waiting" Fabio said.
Ayana took a deep breath, she tried to neutralize her heartbeat. I don't know who is in this cafe so Fabio is reluctant to say it.
They stepped in with slow footsteps. Ayana circulated her gaze, she tried to find the person Fabio meant. But all he got was a room that had been decorated.
Ayana looked at the decoration in surprise. He then looked at Fabio with a questioning look.
But Fabio did not answer, Gama, Omah and Ayana's parents appeared out of nowhere.
"Om Gama's... Grandpa, Grandma, Omah..." Shouted Zayyan.
Ayana rounded her eyes when she saw Gama pushing a table on which there was a large enough cake. The zoo-themed cake made Zayyan jump with excitement.
The four adults showed up with a birthday chant. Zayyan was really pleased with this surprise. While Ayana felt surprised still staring at their presence.
"Happy birthday to Grandpa's grandson" said Papa Hartono approaching his grandson and hugging his tiny body.
"Happy birthday dear. Growing up to be a smart and good child yes, son" said Mama Lisa.
"Happy birthday great-granddaughter Omah" Omah said to Zayyan.
"Happy birthday Zayyan Arkana" said Gama, 'Happy birthday dear son. Zayyan Arkana Wismagara, forgive Papa who has not been present for your birthday, son. From now on, Papa will always be there for you and Mama' continued Inner Gama.
The man held Zayyan and helped her to blow out the candles. After blowing out the candles, Zayyan was asked to cut the cake.
"But the cake is too big, Zayyan can't cut the cake.
"Then we ask Mama for help !" whispered Gama in Zayyan's ear.
The little man nodded and called to his mother.
"Mama, help Zayyan cut the cake !" call Zayyan.
Ayana who felt called upon woke up from her daydream.
"W-what's the baby ?" tanyanya's confused.
"Help Zayyan cut the cake !" Zayyan.
"Aahhhhhhhhhhhh... B-well" answered Ayana. The woman approached slowly towards them. He was still unable to neutralize his shock.
Seeing Ayana walking slowly, Gama immediately approached her and pulled her hand gently.
Seeing that, Fabio could only fall silent. His heart certainly feels hot to see the warm treatment of Gama on Zayyan and Ayana. However, he felt he had no right to be angry.
"Now cut the cake !" said Mama Lisa.
Gama took the cake knife and said, "we cut both !"
"Huh?" sahut Ayana is still confused.
"You go with the knife, and we cut the cake together !" clearly Gama.
Ayana who still can not digest this situation, just according to it. Be Ayana holding the cake knife. More precisely the back of Gama's hands and his son.
Gama smiled happily because Ayana was not consciously touching Gama's hand. Gama started to move the knife and cut the cake. They look like a harmonious little family.
"Who's Zayyan cake for ?" ask Gama about his son.
"Emmm... For whom ?" zayyan asked confusedly. He remembered his friend's birthday. After giving the mother a cake, they gave the Papa a cake.
"So Mama had cake, usually Zayyan's friends gave cake to her Papa. But Papa Zayyan is not here. So Zayyan love who dong ?" he asked with a sad face.
DEG.
Zayyan's statements and questions were like a slap to Ayana and Gama. Guilt instantly enveloped their hearts. While Papa Hartono, Mama Lisa and Omah can only glance at each other.
'Oh my God, what do I do ?' inner Ayana. He looked at his son's innocent face with a sad feeling.
'Papa is here, son. Forgive Papa for leaving you' Inner Gama who also felt sad to hear his son's words earlier.
Suana's feeling started to get awkward. Papa Hartono tried to break the silence.
"Zayyan just give it to the person Zayyan likes !" papa Hartono's.
"Then Zayyan gave his cake to Om..." Zayyan seemed to think.
While all the adults were waiting for Zayyan's answer. Hearing the little guy mention Om, it meant that there were only two possible people. Gama or Fabio.
"Zayyan wants to give his cake to Om Gama" Zayyan gives the cake to Gama.
The man smiled as his son gave him a cake. It means a lot to Zayyan. Can he hope that one day they can be together ?
While Ayana and Fabio are stunned when they see their son giving a cake to Gama with a fluffy smile on his face.
'Did Zayyan do this because of a child's inner bond with his Papa ?' inner Ayana.
'It turns out I was too hopeful of being an important part of Zayyan's life Fabio was disappointed.
"Thank you dear" said Gama teraru. As much as possible, she held back her tears. Although he was a man, he could also cry from being touched by his son's attitude.
"Yes, we eat first. After that, just give a gift for Grandpa's handsome grandson" said Papa Hartono.
They finally ate together. Gama, Fabio and Zayyan one table. While Ayana chooses a table with her parents and the Omah.
"Why didn't you say you were going to Surabaya ?" ask Ayana.
"If we tell you it's not a surprise" Mama Lisa replied.
"Then why did you come with that guy ?" tanya Ayam glanced at Gama who was facing Fabio.
"The girl misses Zayyan. He came to the house and asked permission to follow you here. Because you happened to ask us to come to Zayyan's birthday, so we asked her to leave together" Mama Lisa replied.
Ayana was silent when she heard Mama Lisa's reply.
"Ayana, Papa knows that you're still hurt over what happened a few years ago. But when will you get caught in your wound ? You feel yourself by shutting yourself down. Make peace with your past, son ! Everyone must experience a bitter story, it's just that everyone's story is different. Let the past be a lesson to you in the future ! Now is the time for you to let go of everything in order to live a quiet life !" papa Hartono's Message.
"During this time you must have asked why Papa and Mama you gave Gama a chance to fight for your love ? Dad and Mom couldn't have made a big decision before considering it. All this time Gama really showed all his guilt, all his remorse for what he has done to you. Gama also never gave up on showing the seriousness of his love for us. The man did all sorts of ways to gain our trust. Finally our hearts were broken and gave him a chance. We only hope that you can make peace with your past and be able to make your heart a choice. Isn't it sad that you always lie to Zayyan if her Papa is in a faraway place ? Think about your son's feelings too !" continued Papa Hartono.
Ayana was only able to be silent when she heard the story of the Papa. Ayana starts to worry about her own feelings.
