(NON) A SURROGATE UTERUS

Chapter Twenty. (Not) Replacement Uterus

Dita grimaced as Rendra held her wrist that had been clutched hard with Raffa.

"Sick, sir," said Dita lirih. Rendra let go of her grip on Dita's hand. The man thought his grip was too tight that Dita was in pain.

When they reached the cottage where they had rested, Rendra saw the woman's wrists flushed red. The man pulled Dita's hand slowly.

"Was my hand held so strong that it was red?" ask Rendra to feel guilty.

"No, Sir. Not because of my father." Dita answered nervously.

"Because what's your hand so red?" ask Rendra again. Dicky just kept quiet, waiting for the woman's honesty. Dicky knows too.

"So there was Mas Raffa approaching me. He clutched my hand hard enough to squeeze like this" said Dita slowly.

Hearing Dita's words, Rendra became angry and threw everything on the table into the sand. Dita became afraid to see the reddened face of Rendra.

"Why did you just say?" asked Rendra in a high voice, making Dita scared, to lower her face.

"I'm scared" said Dita, getting nervous.

"Dicky, you're looking for the guy. Ask what she wants!" rendra was angry.

Rendra approached Dita. Pulling his hand slowly. And watch Dita's wrists flushed. "Here is your hand, I'll treat. Next time something bothers you, say it directly."

Rendra asks Dicky to get the ointment in the car and apply it to Dita's hand.

"What did that man say? Why are you scared?" asked Rendra while rubbing Dita's wrist.

"Mas Raffa asked me to return to her immediately after giving birth. Maybe I'll sell it to another guy."

"He threatened you?" Dita nodded her head in response.

"Of course I want a divorce, sir. I don't want to be sold to another man. I'm not something that can be sold. I'll sue the police if I want to sell me again."

"You find the man, take him to the villa!" rendra's orders with Dicky.

"Good, sir."

Rendra blew Dita's hand that was given ointment, because it would feel a little hot when given the medicine. Rendra changed her seat to face the woman.

"Look good, I'm going to get divorced with Grace. So automatically there will be no one to keep the child in your womb. I want you to take care of him until he's a little big. I'll ask your husband what he wants. And ask him to let you stay with me until the baby is one year old."

Rendra stopped her words. Seeing the look on Dita's face. The woman looked sad. Rendra then cupped Dita's face with both hands.

"But it does not rule out the possibility that we will be together. I can't yet interpret this feeling. Let time answer it. For now I am comfortable with you, if I say we will continue together but in the middle of the journey it turns out I have no feelings, I'm afraid you're disappointed because you've been hoping.So all I can say, we'll just go for it."

Dita cried to hear Rendra's words, actually she hopes to be forever with the child in her womb. However, he realized, there was no way Rendra would be willing to defend himself. Rendra can get a much better woman than him.

Rendra wiped Dita's tears. And kissed the two women's eyes. "Don't cry, someone's feelings we can't dive into. It could be later that I want you to stay by my side, but you are the one who does not want to because it has another heart port. We both can't be sure where this heart is going." Rendra stopped her words. Dicky who felt bad to be among them stood up and moved away to the shore.

"Right now my heart is in pain knowing Graceful betrayal. I have tried to accept all his shortcomings, but still for him I still have shortcomings so look for another man. I don't believe in sincere love. I want you to be able to do something that convinces me that love is still there. So that I can truly open this heart to the presence of your love."

"Sometimes, the person you love is the one who hurts you the most. Sometimes a friend crying with you is a love you don't realize. That's what I feel right now, the person I love turned out to be betraying. I can never tell you how much I like you and how special you are to me. However, I can say that since your presence, my world has always been colored. Give me time to decipher all these feelings." Dita nodded her head. Rendra kissed the woman's forehead and hugged her.

Everyone feels faced with a choice that makes doubt in the heart. A look at two or more things, which makes you have to think carefully.Although not easy, but taking choices must be done firmly.

Because it must be admitted, from a decision there is always the possibility of good and bad effects that must be accepted. Make sure you understand the situation to be wiser in determining the answer. Sometimes it never hurts to lower the ego for the common good.
