Precisely at 9.30 am, Alisa ran to the sofa in front of the television. She doesn't want to miss watching her favorite story which is THE LITTLE SHORTCAKES. In addition, Not to mention that there was no repeat broadcast of the story in the television.
"Where are you going Alisa?" Mrs Salina said to her only daughter.
"I want to see the story of THE LITTLE SHORTCAKES. It's going to start at the moment," answered Alisa who couldn't want to watch her favorite story.
Mrs salina shook her head sadly. "I just wanted to ask you to help mom make cupcakes ,'' she said.
Alisa looked at her mother."Umm . . . how about mom rest yourself and stay by my side and i watched my story first? Then, when my story over ,we will make cupcakes. After all, I had a week off,'' suggested Alisa. Then, her suggestion was immediatly approved by her mother.
"Wow, your suggestion is very thoughtful and you are right. After all, mom feels very tired after cleaning the house with you. And mom will rest first.'' Mrs Salina and Alisa sat together on the gray sofa. Alisa was so impressed and devoted to watching her favorite story. Also, her mother was already asleep because she was too exhausted.
After 30 minutes, "Mom, the story is over. Let's make cupcakes," Alisa suprised her sleeping mother.
"Oh, it's over. Okay, I want to go wash my face first,"said Mrs Salina and immediately went to the bathroom.
Tung! Tang! Tung! Tang!
After that, Mrs Salina and her daughter were really lively and excited when they make cupcakes according to the recipe. There were only sound that cheered up the atmosphere in the kitchen. Alisa's face was already smeared with flour, making Mrs Salina amused to see her beloved daughter.
After almost 1 hour of making cupcakes, both of them can now smile with satisfaction." Finally, our cupcakes are ready" said Alisa with shining eyes. She likes to eat the cupcakes that she and her mother have made. Then, Mrs Salina taught Alisa how to decorate cupcakes with whipped cream. Alisa obediently followed her mother's every command.
Pon! Pon!
Suddenly, Mr Rahman's car hon sounded in the yard, Alisa looked at the clock on the wall.
She was suprised because her father came back earlier than usual. It was only 2.00 pm now and her father usually comes home from work at 6.30 pm.
"Why did you come back early today, dad? Is there any problem? Alisa wants to know what happen to her father that came back so early.From this day on, dad no longer works there," Mr Rahman told Alisa
Alisa rolled her eyes with impatiently and confused."What? Did you get fired? But why? What wrong have you done? asked Alisa in a whisper.
Mr Rahman was amused to see Alisa's reaction."Dad was instructed to move to Johor". Mr Rahman said
"Move? Why we need to move anyway? Dad already got fired, then told to move". said Alisa ,who was becoming more and more dissatisfied about what happen to her father.
"I'll tell you later. Now, let's eat first. Your mom must have been waiting in the kitchen for a long time," said Mr Rahman and went to the dining table.
At dining table, Alisa seemed to have no appetite to eat. She looked at her father.
"Dad said we had to move, didn't we? Why?" asked Alisa who was still not satisfied with it. Mrs Salina who was heard Alisa's word was shocked and surprised. However, she just kept quiet. She waited for her husband to explain.
Mr Rahman looked at his daughter and wife with a smile."Actually ,dad got promoted. That's why I was instructed to move to Johor,"explained Mr Rahman about the real situation.
"Wow, is it true? Congratulations! I thought that you really got fired, dad," said Alisa and felt ashamed for making her own assumptions.
"Alisa, next time let dad finish talking first before you interrupt ,it was inappropriate and improper when you talk to someone else in the future. Although, dad was happy to see you confused earlier," said Mr Rahman with a smile.
"But, we only have 2 more weeks. Dad needs to find a rental house immediately," said Mr Rahman.
