Novel & Cerita My Surprise

I ask not wanting to wait. Brandon rolls his eyes dramatically. "My dear dear dear Braze. Did I not mention that it is a SURPRISE?" "And?" Braze urges. "Surprise. S.U.R.P.R.I.S.E. AKA you do something for a person without the person knowing what you did. Surprise. Which means I will not tell you where we are going." Brandon clarifies impatiently. "And stooop askiiing! I will lose myself and give in to you"he whines and I smirk. I'm about to ask more questions when he places his hands over his ears. "Lalalalalalalaaaaa"he starts and I stick my tongue out.

The light seeps back inside me, as I look around only to find everyone staring at me with large, surprised eyes. Suddenly overwhelming cheers fill the silence. What just happened?

The shock ran through my entire body and I sat up straight. "What the hell is this, Drent?" My hands went over my mouth. "Surprise” he said then a pause “Now…. Do you want to go to the party?"

Instead, I asked him something he didn't expect. "Do you believe in love?" And his answer was more surprising to me. "I do." And my shock ,my surprise was clear on my face. My mouth hung open at his answer. "What? Don't look at me like that?" "I just.... it's..you know....I mean it's you . It is ....um... what's the word?.." I couldn't find words to express my shock. "Surprising? Shocking? Stupefying?" He helped me with the word.

Saying that Di walked to the house beside me while I left a prayer wishing my family will not be hurt after this truth is revealed. However, I didn’t expect what he did after hearing everything from Di. Like we three must have thought something different with Di expecting devastated face and James something while I expected anger but he gave an unexpected reaction like completely unexpected for all of us.

So his little pause there was just a blip on the radar, barely registering in the sea of indifference that I carry within. Jasmine's reaction was something else. Her sharp disbelief sliced through the air, catching me off guard for a moment. It was like her usual scorn took a backseat, making way for genuine surprise. I could hear it in her voice, that astonishment that she couldn't quite wrap her head around. It was like she was seeing a change in me that she couldn't comprehend. She whispered, "When did this poor thing turn this beautiful?" And even though her words were sharp, there was some unintended praise hidden in there. It was like her surprise couldn't help but slip out, cutting th

I asked, my heart pounding with a mixture of excitement and bewilderment. Orion’s grip on my arms tightened as he leaned in close, a mischievous twinkle in his obsidian eyes. “It's a surprise party,” he whispered, his voice tinged with excitement. As the realization sunk in, a wave of warmth washed over me, gratitude swelling within me for this unexpected gesture. Despite the darkness that had threatened to consume me, here in this moment, surrounded by loved ones, I felt a glimmer of hope flicker to life once more.

my excited look had turned into bitterness. “What’s wrong? Where did all your excitement go? Or are you overjoyed?” He asked. “My excitement? Overjoyed?!” I barked. “What do you think a surprise is?” “A surprise? A surprise is an unexpected event, is it not?” He asked. “You’re right. This is definitely unexpected,” I expressed sarcastically. “It’s unexpected and this is how you show your excitement? Wear a smile and show your appreciation at once!” He barked. “You know you can’t force people to smile, right?”

They stirred something within me, a faint glimmer of hope breaking through the emptiness. Tears filled my eyes, not from sadness, but from a combination of surprise and a unique, sudden happiness. In the face of betrayal and heartbreak, life had found a way to surprise me. Maybe, just maybe, this unexpected turn of events was exactly what I needed.

"No, no! I didn't forget. You just...weren't supposed to bring that up." My smile faltered. "Wait...what?" He leaned in, lowering his voice. "It was supposed to be a surprise." I froze mid-grin. A surprise? My heart skipped a beat, and suddenly the mundane lobby chair felt like a rocket launchpad. "A...surprise?" I asked cautiously, my voice softening. "Yes," he said, one corner of his mouth twitching into that damned smirk. "You'll see soon." My brain short-circuited, my heart betraying me with every impatient thump. A surprise...from Adrian. I couldn't decide whether I was thrilled or terrified. Probably both.
