Mysterious Gift At The Door

At Zia's house, there was a thanksgiving event for Zia's graduation a few days ago and thanksgiving for Zia's increasing age who is now 18 years old. Thanksgiving is not with a big birthday cake with lit candles or a big and luxurious tart, but Zia's family only doubles the simple thanksgiving without blowing the candles, with tumpeng, tempeh, noodles, vegetable urap, eggs, and fried chicken arranged with simple. The thanksgiving event was only attended by the nuclear family and no one else because Zia's family is not the type to exaggerate happiness too much, because there must be many children out there who are not as lucky as Zia, and to respect the feelings of others, Zia is very used to it and comfortable with her understanding and loving family.

"Let's all gather in a circle and we will pray for our gratitude to God because our child, or rather my nephew has finished his high school studies and is also 18 years old today." said Ridwan, smiling gently at the nephew.

While Zia only responded with a smile. All of them gathered starting from, grandmother, father, mother, uncle, aunt, and close cousins ​​of Zia. They then prayed solemnly to Allah, and then ate the cone that had been prepared earlier, with a warm sense of kinship and gratitude to Allah.

When everyone is busy eating Zia is busy watching the faces of her family members one by one, they all love Zia very much even when Zia forgets today, her mother and aunt have prepared it without Zia knowing. Zia is very happy and loves her family more than anything and with God's permission, Zia will not do anything that embarrass the family later, in fact, Zia aspires to make her family proud. When Zia was busy in her daydream, her cousin tried to surprise her.

"Brother, are you not eating?" Raya said, a woman with shoulder-length hair with a distinctive shrill voice.

"Astagfirulah hallazim ... later on, you just eat first ...," said Zia who was surprised, while rubbing her chest.

Raya is the type of boy who is mischievous, and cheerful. but behind his naughty nature, there is a smart brain because he always wins in his class from grade 1 elementary school to grade 1 high school, he also really loves Zia.

"Hehehehe... sorry sis..., I startled you. Brother was just daydreaming, his girlfriend wasn't invited to make the celebration more memorable." said Raya, whining.

"Brother doesn't have a boyfriend yet, if you find your soul mate, you will get married immediately. So that the sins don't pile up, going out after marriage with someone else saves sins."

"But Raya's brother already has a girlfriend, what about it," said Riya with a confused face.

"So who is Raya's boyfriend?" Zia asked.

"Sis Re...." Raya's words were cut off by a knock on the door right behind Zia.

"Brother, open the door first, okay?" he said with a short smile at Rika then opened the door.

When the door opened but there was no one at the door, there was only a black gift box with a red ribbon, Zia was just confused and checked her front yard because she was curious about the sender of the gift. But Zia didn't find anyone in her yard, because everyone was eating inside. Zia just looked left and right looking for the gift sender but couldn't find it either. Rika came out and saw a confused Zia asked.

"Brother are you looking for who?, everyone is inside, wow, brother, you got a gift, this has an inscription to Kezia but how come there's no name from who?" Raya said with an eyebrow raised and began to be curious about the mysterious gift.

"You also don't know that the deck, brother, opened the door, there was only the gift box, you don't know who sent the mysterious gift with a fairly large size." said Zia who also felt confused.

"Let's just take it home, Sis, then you will open it. After we eat later, maybe from a big fan, Sis." said Raya who laughed wittily and went back into the house.

Zia just nodded and took the gift box inside. from outside the fence, a black hooded man looked at Zia with a fleeting smile then left without anyone noticing.

Zia then went to her room and put the gift box in her room, and returned to the living room to eat with her family.

"Where have you been Zia, seeing the side dishes have been eaten by Tito," said Maika who looked annoyed at Tito, because she had taken the fried chicken that had been placed on her plate earlier.

"Hehehehe from the front room, well... what do you want to eat when the side dishes are finished?" said Zia looking at Tito with a face pretending to be disappointed.

"Yes, please eat rice, Zia... there's still a lot of chili sauce," said Tito with a mocking smile, lazy to respond to his cousin who interfered with his enjoyment of eating.

"Yes, the birthday boy only eats Ama Sambel Tito's rice," said Maika excitedly.

The two of them are very similar to Tom & Jerry's behavior when they fight, but if they are in agreement, they eat like identical twins in general, who have a lot in common. Tired of hearing her twin cousins ​​arguing, Zia left them and started eating and chatting with other family members.

After the meal was over, everyone shook hands and congratulated Zia and hugged Zia lovingly.

"Congratulations, father's daughter is now 18 years old and what kind of marriage do you want to go to?" Zia's father said teasing his daughter with a question.

"Thanks Dad. Zia just go to college". said Zia Riyang while kissing his father's hand. After that, Zia's mother took turns congratulating her.

"My mother's son is eighteen, he's getting married soon." Zia's mother joked while hugging her son.

"Zia still wants to go to college, mother". Zia said as she returned her mother's hug.

That's how everything changed to congratulate Zia until without realizing it was getting late and uncle, aunt and cousins ​​went home.

Then Zia went to take a shower after that then prayed maghrib, lay down, and looked at the mysterious gift. Until I didn't feel the call to prayer for Isa echoed, Zia did the Isa prayer and didn't eat dinner. She was still full from eating this afternoon, Zia's father and mother were busy watching TV, and were used to Zia's habit of not eating dinner, but would get hungry very early in the morning. usually at 2 or three in the morning Zia wakes up feeling hungry.

After performing the isya prayer, Zia lay down again while playing a game on her cellphone, namely the worm game, soon Zia's eyes became heavy and she caught a glimpse of the gift city that she had found, wanted to open the box but then fell asleep.
