After Darkness
Episode 31
"Happy birthday, Mama.." said Robin with a wide smile that expands on her lips which of course makes Bu Anita immediately smile full of haru.
"Rob, Mama thinks you forgot" said Ms. Anita with glassy eyes.
"Remember dong, Ma" replied Robin then she knelt in front of her Mama's "Happy birthday, Mama. Wish you all the best, and I'm sorry the cake is ugly" Robin said, chuckling.
"Bikin' himself?" asked Bu Anita who was also chuckling and Robin just nodded with a whimper.
"It's impossible for you to make a cake, Rob. You told Bi Sum to make a cake? Why not just order?" ask Anita then.
"Later I'll tell you, Ma. Now we celebrate Mama's birthday first" said Robin and Mama was nodding. Robin went into her room and Anita pushed the wheelchairs, following Robin from behind.
Robin sits on the sofa by the window, puts her cake on a round table in front of her and lights a candle she brought from the kitchen.
"Make a wish first before blowing the candle" said Robin and again Bu Anita just nodded, he closed his eyes and prayed in his heart.
"I just want to have my old life, a warm family and I'm healthy"
Bu Anita opened her eyes and then blew out the candle, Robin clapped her hands cheerfully and apparently it woke up Mr. Andrew who was asleep.
Mr. Andrew turned his head and looked at his wife and son who were currently looking happy while enjoying the simple birthday cake. There was a pain in Mr. Andrew's heart when he saw his family happy while he was not cared for and was left lying weak helpless. As if he was just a meaningless display.
"Enak his cake, Rob" said Bu Anita happy "Indeed ugly the look but still delicious it turns out yes" said Bu Anita again and he looks very enjoying the cake.
"Yes, Ma. Tumben is also Auntie can make a cake" said Robin who also enjoyed the cake.
They both laughed and enjoyed the cake.
...... ...
The next day, Bi Sum was busy preparing breakfast of course with the help of his two ladies who had been grumbling since. The reason for their grumbling again Elsa, because the day was already noon but Elsa had not yet come out of her room.
"She must be bad luck, really good so she is" grumbled Ati who was currently peeling potatoes.
"Yes, eat blind pay. Maid as well, but behaved like a young Miss" continued Siti who washed the chicken.
"Already, do not talk about Elsa continues" said Bi Sum who is currently busy making condiments "His job is only serving the Madam, while the Madam is currently still asleep. So yes already" he continued that made both of his paddles tickle.
"Why isn't he helping Bi Sum like us?" ask Siti ketus.
"You helped me because I told Madam, while Elsa was not told by Madam anything other than serving her" said Bi Sum and her lady-in-waiting was only able to snort.
