ANINDITA, A Tale of the Past

Tony Stark's

" No, yeah?"

Anindita blinked her eyes as her hearing caught Aryan's voice again.

" Oh, sorry ... Why would you ask for my HP number?" ask Anindita.

" So I can order first if you want to order a bouquet, so don't wait." Arya gave a reason.

" Oh, I'm sorry if I feel uncomfortable having to wait a long time. But if Mas wants to order by phone, mas can call the store phone first, Mas." Anindita gave her advice.

" I'll get you his business card soon." Anindita then walked up to the cashier's table and took Alabama Florist's business card and handed the card to Arya.

" Oh, okay. Thank you .." said Arya.

" Excuse me, Mas," Anindita then said goodbye leaving Arya who was still staring at her back to disappear behind the door.

After seeing Anindita disappear, Arya then walked out of the florist shop. He then headed to his car, and started the engine of his car after putting the bouquet in the back seat. He took a hundred thousand bills from his wallet.

" Sir ...!" Arya pointed the money she was holding to the parking attendant in front of the flower shop.

" Present, Mas. Small money only use it," said the parking attendant when Arya gave a hundred thousand dollars in fractions.

" Just take it all, sir. No need to be returned" said Arya.

" Thank God, thank you, Mom." The parking attendant directly put the money on his forehead as an expression of his gratitude.

" The same, sir." Arya. " Oh yes, sir. Hmmm ... employees of the flower shop whose name is Anin who has a small name Ramadhan, if the work of his son is also brought, yes?" arya asked looking for information about Anindita.

" Oh, Sister Anin? Yes, because Anin's mother lives there." The parking attendant pointed towards the small building behind the shop.

" He lives there?" Arya is shocked to find out where Anindita lives.

" Yes, Mas."

" With her husband?" Arya deliberately provoked that question.

" Anin's mother has no husband, she's been separated hearing the hell." The parking attendant then grinned. " Why, Mas? Fancied Sister Anin, huh?" guess later.

Arya who noticed her curiosity towards Anindita inviting the attention of others only developed her faint smile.

" Thank you for the info, sir." Arya drove her car out of Alabama Florist.

" Mr Anin ...!"

Anindita who walked by holding Ramadhan's hand while intending to buy a snack for Ranadhan stopped her steps when Mr. Bondan, the parking lot man who served in Alabama Florist called her name.

" What's up, Mr Bondan?" ask Anindita.

" Last noon there was a flower shop guest asked Mbak Anin, you know."

" Oh yeah? Who, Sir?" Kening Anindita frowned upon hearing the story from Mr. Bondan that someone was wondering about her. Wh who? thought Anindita.

" Dude, Ma'am. I don't know either. That's a handsome guy, Ma'am. The car is cool too." Mr. Bondan showed me his thumb.

" Who is it, sir?" Anindita still thinks.

" The guy's crested, handsome anyway, Ma'am."

Anindita sighed, it seemed like she knew who was wondering about it.

" Kaya has a crush on Mbak Anin deh that person, Ma'am." Mr. Bondan teases Anindita.

Anindita smiled faintly in response to Mr. Bondan's remarks.

" Sir Bondan is just about anywhere, where maybe a person like me is assessed by a rich man he, sir." Anindita brushed aside Mr. Bondan's assumption.

" Do you know who it is?" ask Mr. Bondan.

" Yes, Sir. That man who helped Ramadan who almost fell the flower board at that time. Mr Bondan remember?"

" Oh, the time of the incident that Rama was I did not work, Ma'am."

" Oh, Mr Bondan wasn't there at the time of the incident?"

" Yes, Ma'am."

" Oh yeah, I'm out first, sir. I want to find a snack for Rama later tonight," said Anindita then walked towards the mini market opposite the Alabama flower shop.

Salamullah ala yasin habibillah

Tawassalna bibismillah wabil hadi

Wakulimuja hidilillah biahlilbadriya Allah ..."

Anindita put Ramadhan to sleep by reciting sholawat while stroking the forehead of Ramadan until the child was asleep with his dream. He saw the corner of his lips smiling like his son was having a dream that made him happy.

" Happy always yes, son. Even if only your mom raised you." Anindita kissed her son's forehead.

Ddrrtt

Anindita immediately picked up her phone, as it rang.

" Hello, what's up, Ci?" anindita asked as she picked up her boss' phone call.

" Nin, there is a florist shop customer who chat Cici ask for your phone number, Cici love is okay, yes!" said Lucy.

" Who, Ci?" Although Anindita guessed that the person who asked for her number was Arya, she still asked Lucy.

" The one who was nolongin Rama, do you remember?"

Anindita sighed slowly. It turned out that his guess was right, that guy asked for his cell phone number.

" If Cici's guessing, she seems to like you, Nin." Lucy chuckles.

" Cici could be, couldn't be, Ci." Anindita tried to deny.

" Nothing is impossible, Nin. Don't be pessimistic, that soul mate who knows. Looks like the guy's good too. So sweet again, use ask your number directly to Cici, a tough fighter nih kanya." Lucy seduces Anindita and makes her face blush. Fortunately, he is not facing Lucy right now.

" He's that handsome, Nin. If Cici sees the profile picture looks like Tony Stark, you know." Lucy's back.

" Geez, Ci ..." Anindita also chuckles to hear Lucy equate Arya with Hollywood actor Robert Downey.

" If Cici can give advice, if there is a man who tries to approach you, there is no harm in you opening your heart to the man, Nin. Rama needs a father figure, you also need a life companion. Do not keep your heart closed. Maybe for now you do not feel the need, but later you and your child will need a figure of a man who will lead you through life in the future, Nin."

" Later if Rama's time has started school, when his friends tell him about their papa, then it might feel heavy for your son."

Anindita took a breath that felt choked. Everything Lucy said was true. That is also sometimes thought of but he tried to dismiss it by assuming he would be able to explain to his son.

" Yes yes, Nin. Cici hang up the phone first. Afraid to block who else wants your phone, can not-can go in because you again call the same Cici." tempt Lucy back.

" Yes, Ci." Anindita had just intended to put back her phone but suddenly the flat object went off again.

Rows of numbers that felt unfamiliar to him appeared on his phone's screen at this moment.

" Assalamualaikum .." Anindita said.

" Waalaikumsalam, Anin .. This is Arya."

Deg

Instantly Anindita's heart thumped when she heard Arya's voice.

" Oh, i-iya .. What's up, Mom? Would you like to file a complaint about the order this afternoon?" tanya Anindita tried to shift her nervousness while talking to the man.

" Oh, no. Not that. I'm sorry, I asked your number to your boss, because you don't want to give it to me."

Anindita sighed, actually in also feeling upset her phone number could get into Arya's hands, but there was no way she should be angry at Lucy, who there she would be considered an ungrateful person.
