Tiara flipped through the heart-shaped gift with a yellow cover decorated with pink ribbons while guessing who the sender was. There was no other information other than a small paper that read 'Happy Birthday, Tiara' on one side. This morning when he came, Abdul handed the gift to him, but said he did not know who gave it. Because he had to start work, Tiara did not open it immediately, after his working hours were finished then he opened it.


More curious about the contents, Tiara decided to open it. Tiara gaped, her eyes round looking at the contents of the box. There is a small white cat doll, and a heart-shaped keychain complete with the inscription 'love'.


Nope. That's not what makes him agape, but a small transparent box that is held by the cat doll. Tiara grabbed the transparent box, opened it and her eyes sparkled in astonishment. A silver necklace with a crown-shaped pendant he pulled out of the box.


Whoever the sender is, that person certainly knows him very well, because all things from the gift describe him, a gift box with his favorite color, also a stuffed cat. The sender knows he likes cats. Then the crown pendant which is the meaning of his name.


"Father gave you the name Tiara which means crown, in the hope that you will be crown for your family and for your husband later" Mr. Anto said one day.


Tiara's eyes glazed over, feeling touched by the gift. Tiara took out all the contents of the box, looking for a clue about the sender. Tiara found him, a piece of pink paper, neatly folded under the doll. Tiara opened. A few seconds later, his forehead wrinkled with squinting eyes.


Take care of your heart for me, and be the queen of the palace I will build.


He read the words written on the paper again. His blood rippled and he felt his cheeks warm up. Is this a proposal? But who? The inner Tiara was filled with question marks.


"Ciee, that's got a gift!"


"Campus!" Tiara jumped up, then grumbled in annoyance, "Mas Dhika!"


Dhika only grinned, her fault also suddenly appeared and shocked the girl.


"From who?" ask Dhika.


"don't know. There was no sender's name" Tiara replied accordingly, then picked up the gifts, put them back in the box and put them in the bag.


"Now, a gift for you," Dhika said as she pulled out a square box wrapped in brown color from behind her back, then handed it to Tiara. "Happy birthday, yeah. Moga long life, healthy always, cheap sustenance, and can quickly mate," he said.


"Amen! Thanks you, Mas. Kirain Mas doesn't remember, "kekeh Tiara.


"Yes remember, dong. You are the one who often menggelupain Mas," said Dhika with a satirical tone.


"By the way, what is this?" Tiara shook the box slowly.


"It's open."


Tiara opened the lid of the box while guessing the contents. Tiara's round eyes instantly sparkled upon seeing the contents. A navy dress with a blend of light gray brukat on the chest to the arm that is limited to the elbow. Tiara put the dress on her body, it should have been above knee length, but because it was far from the model so it was a little below the knee length, but still seemed to fit on her body.


"Eh, is this Mas who boughtin?" tiara asked still with sparkling eyes.


"Yes. Helped by Rena, anyway. Says Mama Rena, you love that shirt. So I just thought to give it as a gift for you," explained Dhika.


"It's expensive, Mom." Tiara recalled the price of the dress which was almost half her salary. He saw it in Rena's catalog. He had thought about buying it, but because of the expensive price, he undo it.


"Nothing at all" said Dhika.


"Don't smile first. It's not free tau," Dhika replied.


"Oh, Dhika! Mending don't have to say that. The debt, which is not free. Now, Ara wants to pay what to try? Udah ah, Ara did not want to accept anything more from Mas," Tiara scolded while folding the dress back and put it back in the box and handed it to Dhika.


"That's it," said Dhika.


Tiara did not respond, only her pursed lips, making Dhika even more anxious.


"Mas wants to, you're wearing that dress tomorrow. Temenin Mas met a special person," continued Dhika seriously.


"Mas Dhika's girlfriend?" guess Tiara. Instantly Tiara felt slapped, how could she possibly forget that fact.


"Later also know," said Dhika.


Tiara looked at Dhika sharply. What the hell is on that guy's mind? What does that man mean by always treating him so special, but on the other hand he has a more special person.


Now, the man even asked her to meet that special person. Did the man never think how he felt when he saw the person he liked with other people? Say he's jealous. Yes, he was jealous. Hearing Dhika call him a special person has made him jealous. Especially having to see it directly.


Instantly a shadow of all the possibilities that would occur upon meeting that special person, flashed in Tiara's mind. How should he behave in front of them? How he tried to act ordinary, even though in his heart it felt like being squeezed. How did that special person think of him? It doesn't matter if the person can take it well. But what if on the contrary, the person actually does not like it or worse he is branded as a bully in their relationship.


No. gabe. Tiara shook her head as she continued to say no in her heart. He can't meet that guy. This is for the good of Dhika and that person's relationship, especially the good of her own feelings. He could not let his heart be hurt by jealousy towards someone who already belonged to someone else.


"By!"


Dhika's call jolts Tiara from the reverie. Tiara stuttered, then tried to regain her focus.


"Dream again. Lately, I noticed you often daydream. Think what, anyway?" dhika continued because Tiara did not reply.


"Eh, don't think about anything, kok, Mas. Just remember, tomorrow there is no time," replied Tiara reasoned.


"So how, tomorrow's the time, right?" dhika asked with a hopeful look. Lately it's been hard asking for that girl's time. They are either busy or purposely avoiding it.


"Tomorrow, yeah. I guess I can't tomorrow. There was a promise with Rian, ", replied Tiara.


Actually he had no appointments with anyone, but that was the only reason that came to his mind right now. Though I feel guilty for lying.


"You now want Rian more, yes," Dhika said with an envious tone.


"It's not like that, Mas, but ...." Tiara could not continue speaking. He was confused what to say. Should he tell you the truth?


"Because you like Rian, so you put Rian first now."


Seriate.
