I'm really tired right now...I just finished with the surprise for my sister.
Yup! Today is her 20th birthday! So I prepared some kind of surprise for her.
I ordered a Chocolate Truffle cake yesterday. Actually when I was about to order, I was so confused about which cake that I should choose. I had four choices : Tiramisu, Chocolate Truffle, Oreo Mousse, and Fruit Delight. All of them look sooo delicious! However, she doesn't really like tiramisu and oreo, so those two were eliminated. Now there were 2 left.
I know that she likes chocolate, so the chocolate truffle might be the correct choice. But I was worried that the cake would be too sweet (which she hates so much) and she will end up not eating the cake after eating once.
And I haven't tried the cake at all...
Fruit delight? Hmm might be good as well. Since there are fruits, it will be healthy
and it will not be too sweet.
Think... think... think....
Well, in the end, I chose Chocolate Truffle cake.
Here's the photo...

it looks so yummy, doesn't it? ;)
yes, I know it does. In fact, it is also not too sweet. So everybody loves it. Hahaha
Now let me tell about the surprise.
Plan A : Citra will bring the cake to the house at block 185 and keep it there. At around 12 a.m, she will come back and wait outside with the cake ready.
Meanwhile, I will pretend that I want to throw garbage outside. Then we will enter the house together to surprise her.
HOWEVER...
Until 12 a.m, she still has not come home. -_- So I told Citra to come back.
We started to discuss for plan B.
Plan B : switch off all the lights, Citra will be waiting in the kitchen with the cake. When we heard the footsteps, she will light the candles and surprise her when she enters. However, this plan is too risky. Since my sister is afraid of darkness, I supposed that she will quickly switch on the light when she finds it so dark. Oh well, change plan again...
Plan C : still switch off the light, except one small lamp. We wait behind the door with the cake ready. When we hear footsteps, we will eagerly light the candles. Actually this is also quite difficult since we don't know when she will arrive home. But I got a great helper. So we can know when exactly we have to get ready.
And yeah, we were successful! ^^
