(NON) A SURROGATE UTERUS

Chapter Thirty-Six (Not) Substitute Womb

Rendra searches for Dita's whereabouts throughout the restaurant but the woman does not have her nose. Rendra seemed to be getting worried. After almost despair, Rendra looked into the garden. Seemed Dita sitting while looking at the stars.

Rendra approached Dita and hugged the woman's shoulder from behind and kissed her. Rendra was relieved to find the 9th woman.

"Darling, why are you sitting here? Many mosquitoes!" said Rendra while peeping Dita's cheek.

Dita smiles knowing Rendra is looking for her. The man sat next to Dita.

"Why go? And why are you crying?" asked Rendra and wiped away the tears Dita soaked her cheeks. Instead of stopping, Dita's tears flooded her face.

Rendra took Dita into his arms and dyed the woman's hair. "I'll marry you in a week. From that day on I will no longer be close to any woman other than you."

Dita hugged Rendra's waist, her tears getting broken. I don't know what made her cry. Is it because of seeing Anggun and Rendra's embrace or because she cried happily because she was about to marry the man.

"Don't cry. Our son will be sad too." With a sobbing Dita stopped her crying.

"Dicky has taken care of your divorce as well as our marriage. Your divorce will be quickly granted. That's a little hard it's me. But Dicky and the lawyer will work on it soon."

"I don't know what to say, Mom. I'm happy to be with my son."

"Are you unhappy with me?" tanya Rendra teased the woman.

"I'm happy too, Mom."

"You're jealous to see me and Grace hug and kiss?" ask Rendra.

Dita is silent, unable to answer Rendra's question which might trap her. Dita was a little jealous. But the woman realized that she did not deserve to be jealous. Anggun is currently still legitimate as Rendra's wife.

"Do I have any right to be jealous? Even if I'm jealous, I realize it's not okay. Currently Bu Anggun is still his legal wife Mas until tap the hammer. So I have to throw that flavor away."

Rendra pinched both of Dita's cheeks and kissed the woman's lips. "I'd rather you be jealous. We're getting married in a week if you're not jealous of me with another woman, then I'm gonna find another escort."

"I'm going to grab the hair of a woman who dares to tease Mas" said Dita. Rendra laughed at Dita's funny words.

Meanwhile inside the restaurant room, Dicky and Anggun appear to be arguing. The woman disagrees if the company she requested is still on Rendra's behalf and all expenses must be Rendra's permission.

"If it's still in Rendra's name, it's the same. I also have no right to finance. It's the same as lying. I will sue and will not grant divorce."

"Did you forget if talaq was given to men. Agree or not the divorce process will continue."

"Religibly so. But according to the state, divorce is legal if both parties agree."

"What mom forgot if we had a lot of evidence of mother infidelity. It can speed up divorce. It might even be proof if the mother is not entitled to the treasure gono-gini. I won't get anything!"

"You're threatening me!"

"Not threatening, but reminding mom. What's Mr Rendra's lack until I betray him?" ask Dicky in a flat voice.

"It's none of your business!" said Dita beaver.

Dicky smiled at the upset Grace. He did not think, why the woman could betray Rendra. Though the man has everything and will grant all that Anggun wants.
