Soon, they packed up their stuff. Harry ran out to bring his backpack as soon as he suited up. When he came back, Emma wore the most decent dress she had as a new beginning. she had her backpack in her hand.
Harry took the backpack from Emma. "Let's go then, Emma."
Emma nodded and held Harry's hand. "Okay Harry". She is still thinking about whether she is dreaming or not. She is about to board on a plane with this stranger she met the previous day night at a bar, but she was not able to refuse those eyes that kept glancing at her.
Harry and Emma boarded the plane right before the gate closed. Coincidentally, they had their seats in the same row. Harry talked to a flight attendant while Emma went to her seat. She looked at Harry as he was talking with the attendant. She didn't hear what he was talking about. But the way Harry talked with the attendant somehow made her experience strange feelings.
When they sat down, Emma leaned towards Harry. "What were you talking about? You were so happy back there."
Harry smiled at Emma. He leaned to her ear. "It seems like you are jealous?"
Emma felt a shiver going down from head to toes. She quickly pushed Harry's face while blushing. "Me? Jealous? Seriously?"
Harry kissed the hand that was pressing to his lips. "It looks like you're jealous ."
Emma quickly pulled her hand to herself. She rubbed her hand while looking at attendants. "What are you doing? People are watching. " Emma saw how attendants were giggling while looking at them
One of the flight attendants came closer to Harry and whispered to Harry. Then Harry took a handkerchief from his pocket and covered Emma's eyes."Hold on. There is something I'm planning to do. "
Emma didn't say a word. She just gently nodded. She heard something moving and people giggling. "Harry, can I remove the handkerchief?"
Harry waited for a while before the answer. "Okay, Emma, you can remove it."
As soon as Emma removed the handkerchief, she was atonished as she was looking at the cake in front of her. It was a white two layer cake with pink colour wave like designs on it, and the words 'Happy Brithday' were written on it. "How? How did you know?"
Harry lightens up twenty-six birthday candles attached to it. "Happy Birthday, Emma. Make a wish and blow it. "
Emma tears dropped as she blew the candles. No one has ever celebrated her birthday before. Not even her family. She leaned closer to Harry and gave a kiss on his cheek. Then she quickly posture herself. "Thank you, Harry." Emma cut a piece of cake and offered it to Harry.
Harry took a bite of the piece of the cake while it was in Emma's hand. As Emma was shocked, she dropped the cake on Harry's pants.
"Harry, I'm so sorry. I just..." Emma tried to find reason. But Harry patted her head. He cleaned the icings with a tissue. "It's okay. I will just wash it and come back. " Then he stood up and walked to the washroom.
Emma anxiously waited in the seat. While she was waiting, the same flight attendant who was talking with Harry came closer to Emma. "Miss, your boyfriend is so dedicated to you. He reserved a couple seat packages with a high price. We were amazed when we got the call from the shareholders."
Emma went speechless as she heard what the attendant said. She knows Harry has savings in his hands. But to reserve seats with the help of a shareholder? She had several thoughts coming to her mind endlessly. She turned back to the attendant. "How much is the package?".
"It's..." Harry came back before the attendant finished her sentence. "It's not much, Emma. Trust me. Just forget about it."
Emma didn't ask any further. Harry and Emma shared the cake with the other passengers and attendants. The time in the flight went quietly.
