Novel & Cerita Grumpy Old Man Happy Birthday

His eyebrows wrinkle more with the way his eyes glimmer. This man is the main reason anytime I feel left out, I recall there is someone that loves me unconditionally. "Happy birthday to my dearest papa. Long life and prosperity." I wished and stretched my hands to embrace him. "Thank you little one" "Arrrrrgh" I cringed playfully at the way he referred to me. Not long after, Mrs Smith came in "Allie dear, can you convince this old man that he has to get ready? The guests are here already. Kendall is here too"

Then, he tried to rub his furry head against my cheek. Evan was blessed with a head of golden curls. They shone like the afternoon sunlight. I turned my face to the side, looking frigid. "You don't have to make it up to me. You are not the one who betrayed me." 17-year-old Evan had nothing to do with his 27-year-old self who broke our promise. His younger self moaned and sobbed. Tears fell from his sapphire blue eyes. "Bella, how did it come to this?"

Just muttered, "I like it." He didn't notice. Or maybe he was just too wiped from playing house with Sabrina. "You like it, that's all that matters. I'm gonna shower," he said. He disappeared into the bathroom. By the time he came out, I was already in bed, facing the wall. Silent. He wrapped his arms around me. Same bed, totally different worlds. *** Then came my birthday. Derrick threw his usual party—surprises, cake, the works. Picture-perfect.

When he saw them, he said smilingly, "Sir, Missus, Senior Hart was just talking about you two. Hurry in now." Tyler nodded and made a simple response before he moved toward the room. - In the room was an old man with gray hair. His face looked aged, yet he seemed to be hale. He was sitting on the chair enjoying his tea. When he saw Tyler, he cracked a smile and uttered, "Tyler, you're here." Tyler gave his birthday present to his grandfather and said, "Happy birthday, Grandpa." Senior Hart accepted his present with a smile. When he saw Vicky, who was behind Tyler, his smile disappeared, and his eyes turned cold.

She felt what I felt, even if it wasn’t much stronger like me. The old man sighed, “What a loss. It was nice meeting you, child.” Chiara smiled back at him. “Nice to meet you too. Happy birthday. And your grandson will find someone someday.” He looked around. “Let’s hope he does or I’ll find him one myself. Where is this punk anyway?”

The moment he spotted me, he spread his arms brightly. “There he is! My grandson! Where the hell have you been, you spoiled brat? You couldn’t come in the morning to spend time with your old grandpa?” “I was busy.” I said flatly, stepping out of the hug and handed him the neatly wrapped box. “But I’m here now. Happy birthday, Grandpa. This is from both of us.” “Happy birthday, grandpa. May you be blessed with a long and healthy life.” Charlotte said politely as the old man took the gift from my hands.

The old man was sitting in the living room, holding a cup of tea in one hand while dancing and swaying side to side to the music playing from the speakers. He looked so happy, moving his shoulders and humming along to the tune with a big smile on his face. He was really enjoying the moment. Kenny stood there, watching him with surprise. He never expected to see his grandfather enjoying himself like that. He laughed softly and asked, “Grandpa, what is the celebration about?” The old man looked up, still smiling, and replied cheerfully, “Is it wrong to celebrate the return of my grandson? Today is the happiest day of my life.”

I whimper, my voice completely wrecked. Happy birthday to me.

She had not since had a birthday celebration. Ralph took Mable’s hand and lamented, “My dear Mable, you have turned twenty-four in the blink of an eye. I’m getting old.” Mable held Ralph’s arm. “You’re not old, Grandpa.” Ralph gave her a pat on the head. “Tell me what you want for your birthday. I’ll make it happen.” Mable shook her head. “Your good health is the best gift I could ever get for my birthday.” “Oh, child.”

The smirk on his face was back as he hummed lowly under his breath, his eyes glinting under the low lighting of the room. ---------------- "Happy birthday, Gramps." Ayla hugged the old man as she wished him with a beaming smile which could light up the whole room. The clock had struck twelve a couple of seconds ago and it was now just the family member who filled up the hall. All of the guests had half an hour ago after filling up their bellies and passing along their wishes and gifts to the old man who seemed to care less about their pretentious personalities and fake smiles.
