Four days to go Oliver's birthday. Alexa is confused about what to give gifts. While Oliver himself has said on the eve of his birthday, he only wants to be alone with Alexa.
There will be a celebration at the office. Lunch prepared by Mama Elvira. And Oliver's night doesn't want to be disturbed. This is the first time he will celebrate his birthday with a lover he loves since he was heartbroken.
"I was confused what to give a gift. Oliver has everything. " Giani and Joana looked at each other when they heard Alexa's complaint. Today, the three of them are at the cafe Giani while trying a new coffee recipe concocted by Giani.
"Oliver likes what collection?" Ask Joana.
"No idea, mom."
"Don't know? You've been together for almost 2 months. Should have known."
"We rarely spend time together. It's a good thing that a week can meet up to twice."
"You've never been to Oliver's apartment?" ask Giani.
"Only once. That was my time and he wasn't. I drove him when he was sick."
"You should have come out there and seen whatever stuff Oliver likes. Pretend to bring cake. Well, it just so happens to be Sunday tomorrow right? After the church, you go to Okan's apartment and bring a cake. Any flight schedules?" Ask Giani again.
"Later Sunday night at 7."
"Then, let's help auntie prepare the cake. Aunty is sure that Oliver will like it." Giani followed by a nod of agreement from Joana. Alexa is excited. Tomorrow he'll surprise Oliver. Tonight they can't meet because Oliver's on duty out of town. Maybe it was midnight.

Alexa smiled as she parked her car in Oliver's apartment yard. Last night, Oliver Videocall when the time was already showing at half-time one night. He just arrived. They talked for a long time until Oliver finally decided to sleep because he was very tired.
In Alexa's hands there is cake and coffee cappucino favorite Oliver. Alexa deliberately chose worship at 8 am so that at 10 am he had reached Oliver's apartment. Although since they dated Alexa had never come to Oliver's apartment, but Oliver had given him an access card to enter the apartment lobby. Oliver has also said that the entry code to his apartment has been replaced by Oliver with the date of Alexa's birth.
Hence, the girl felt happy she could make Oliver surprised by his arrival. Maybe Oliver's not up yet.
The elevator stopped on the 10th floor. This is the top floor. Alexa stopped at doorstep number 1001
With agility, Alexa put her date of birth on the door screen and the door opened perfectly. His smile immediately disappeared when he saw a woman coming out of Oliver's room, wearing Oliver's shirt that looked great on his body without any subordinates. The girl looks a bit petite for a bule guy size.
"Hi.....!" Greet the girl on Alexa. Looks kind of stiff.
"Baby, who's coming?" Oliver came out of the same room. He only wears shorts without a top. Her hair looks wet.
"Eca?" Oliver's surprised.
Alexa's heart is pulled out of place. He feels broken.
"I'm sorry, I got the wrong apartment. Excuse me!" Alexa threw away the bag of cookies and coffee that she was carrying with her rough. He immediately turned and left.
"Eca..wait....!" Oliver runs after Alexa but the girl has disappeared behind the door.
"Damn....!" Oliver swears. He opened the door but Alexa was already riding the elevator. Oliver headed to the other elevator but it was a long time ago. Unknowingly, Oliver hits the elevator door in annoyance.
When the elevator finally opened, Oliver went inside to the 1st floor. The elevator felt very slow, especially on some floors there were people entering. The smiling women looked at the bare-chested Oliver. But the man did not notice it. His mind was on Alexa.
"Dw.....!" Oliver looks at the Alexa car he just pulled back. He ran and stopped the car.
"Honey, listen to my explanation."
Alexa pulled down her car glass. Oliver went straight to the side of the open glass.
"Darling....!"
"You're not worthy of trust." Alexa opened the ring that Oliver had pinned on his ring finger, then threw it away. Alexa quickly runs again his car even rearview mirror until it hits Oliver's body.
Oliver's down. He was no longer chasing Alexa. When he wakes up, he looks for the ring that Alexa threw away. When the ring is found, Oliver goes back to his apartment.
*********
Alexa has been crying for 2 hours. His heart still hurts. He had already imagined what Oliver was doing with the girl. They came out of the same room.
Alexa turned on her phone again. Got some messages from Oliver. The girl immediately deleted it without reading all her messages. He blocked Oliver's number. He called Felicia.
"What's up, brother?"
"Where are you?"
"Just want to go."
"Then go to the room next door, take the suitcase that you have prepared there. At home there is no one because papa Aldo and mami bule are going to the papi friend event. Joaldo looks like he's playing outside. If you see Oliver there, don't say anything. So too if papi Juan and mami Wulan ask. Understood?"
"What the hell is it, brother?"
"Just take the suitcase to the address you already SMS."
"Ready.....!"
Alexa kept her phone back. He wiped his tears. Enough Alexa! Don't cry for that jerk anymore.
*********
Felicia parked her car behind her sister's car. They're at the playground, near Finly's mom's apartment.
"Sister....!" call Felicia.
Alexa got out of her car. Felicia's surprised. "Sister why? Just finished crying? Fighting with Oliver's brother? Or what's up?" felicia asked frantically looking at Alexa's puffy eyes and her red nose.
"I'm doing fine. An Oliver won't break my heart."
"What did that guy do? How dare he hurt my beautiful sister."
"I found him in his apartment with a girl."
"What's? You rancid bule! I'll beat him up." Felicia's getting emotional.
"Swimming, deck. I don't want to rebel as if I'm going to die without him. Anyway, you can't say this to anyone. I'm ashamed to have defended her in front of everyone. Said he could trust me."
"Relax, brother. Brother's secret is safe with me." Felicia hugged her sister. He really loves his brother.
"Where are you going now?" felicia asked as the two were already sitting on the park bench.
"I'll miss my sister."
Alexa looked at her sister."When you were a toddler, my mom and I always took you to this park. That time was beautiful. I miss my mom."
"The people say, mama is very similar to big brother huh? Mom's hair is as beautiful as sister's hair."
"Maybe. But my mama's beautiful eyes are dark brown, very similar to yours."
Felicia's eyes were glazed. "Even though I haven't known my mother in a long time, I am grateful that she left me in the midst of a great woman. There's Mama Wulan, mami bule, and aunt Giani. I've never felt lost in love because they were so good to me."
"Yes. We are surrounded by great women and handsome men who love us very much. So, an Oliver, it won't take my life down."
Felicia nodded.
"Please call your friend to bring your sister's car? Brother's gonna take a taxi to the airport so Oliver won't find any trace of brother."
"Beres sister. Call my girlfriend, can't you?"
"Is he really here?"
"Yes. We actually promised to have lunch together. But I canceled it because I wanted to be with my sister."
"Call your bule boyfriend. I'll see it. I hope he's not as bad as Oliver."
"Of course not." Felicia immediately pulled out her phone and called her boyfriend.
***********
After successfully avoiding Oliver's observation, Alexa finally grateful because he could get into the plane. He immediately mingled with his friends.
1 Hour later, the plane took off. Alexa tried to take a deep breath several times to release the burden on her heart.
**********
Joana and Aldo look at each other when they hear Oliver's explanation.
"I too if I was in Alexa position would definitely think the same with him. Alexa has never been together. That's why he immediately thought that Oliver betrayed him. Wait for him to come home and explain everything" Joana said.
"According to the actual schedule Eca will be returning last night from Singapore. I waited until almost morning at the airport. But it turns out he wasn't on the flight from Singapore." Said Oliver.
"There may be a change of departure schedule" Aldo said.
"Yes. Last night she called my mom. Eca said he was still in Singapore. He said he'll be back tomorrow. But it looks like it's going to go right back." Joana.
Oliver believes that Alexa deliberately avoided him. But the guy was trying hard and patient.
*********
"Alexa, Yulinda's sick. He can't fly to Sidney. Will you replace him?" Ask Vivian's Mom. He is the airline representative in Singapore.
"Actually, I'm going home to Jakarta this afternoon. It doesn't matter if I go to Sidney. I'm ready to replace Yulinda."
"Thank you, huh? Yulinda wants to go back to Indonesia. He needs rest because he may be exhausted. He's been flying non-stop for 2 weeks."
"Yes. I saw his face was a bit pale. What time does the plane leave?"
"2 hours to go."
"OK." Alexa immediately to the flight attendant's special waiting room. He's getting ready there. The return to Jakarta is still 4 hours away. While dressing up, Felicia contacted him.
"Hallo princess, what time should I pick you up at the airport?"
"Nobody's not coming home today. I'm going to Sidney. Later from Sidney, brother will call you again. Ok?"
"OKs. Don't forget about it, huh?"
"Ready darling. Hopefully you've got enough to find something for you."
"Ready boss. Uh, yesterday I saw a rancid boule talking to Juan and mami bule. I didn't hear what they said. Bule's face looks sad."
"Don't tell him, I don't like it!"
"OK, man. Bye brother"
Alexa takes care of her makeup equipment. He grabbed his long hair and immediately stepped into the plane.
**********
4 Hours later......
Joana who is preparing dinner with aunt Lumi sees the news of the plane crash on TV.
"That's the plane belonging to the airline Alexa works for? The location of the plane crash is unknown."
Suddenly, Felicia screamed. Behind him are Juan and Wulan.
"What's Feli?" joana asked confusedly.
"Sister, mi. Brother's on that plane."
"What do you mean, Feli? Didn't Alexa just leave Singapore for Jakarta? It's from Singapore to Sidney."
"So I exchanged tasks with a sick friend. I was on the phone with my sister. Brother said he was going to Sidney." Felicia cried hysterically. She hugged Joana tightly.
"No way!" Joana shakes.
Aldo who was in his study came out with a pale face.
"The airline just called. Their plane, which was flying from Singapore's Sidney, lost contact. And Alexa is one of the crew in it." Aldo said without holding back his tears.
Jaoana surprise. "My son..., no....!" Then the woman fainted.
