ANINDITA, A Tale of the Past

Aryan's Request

Anindita notices Arya and Ramadhan who look fun playing in the children's game arena. Ramadhan looks enthusiastic to try some games, while Arya looks patient to accompany Ramadan to play. They both look like a father and son. Anindita's face instantly blushed as she imagined that. He immediately opened his eyes, tried to return to the real world and did not continue to soar with his delusion earlier.

" Mama .." shouted Ramadhan as he waved as he boarded the sky ryder and passed Anindita making Anindita wave back at his son.

" His son, Ma'am?" ask the woman next to Anindita when she sees Anindita's interaction with Ramadan.

" Yes, Mom." Anindita.

" New one, Ma'am?" ask the woman again.

Anindita frowned at the woman's question, but she nodded her head shortly. " Oh .. Yes, Mom." Anindita answered stiffly.

" What age is his son?"

" Three and a half years."

" His son is cute, like his papa, yes!"

The words of the woman next to him suddenly made Anindita's eyes round.

" But her mom is pretty, too. No wonder his son is so handsome. The seedlings are indeed seeded." The woman continued to comment making Anindita wrong.

" Mr ..." Ramadhan who had finished playing sky ryder immediately ran and hugged Anindita.

" Ma, long walk again yes, Ma!" say Ramadan.

" Yes, now we eat first, yuk! Rama's hungry, right?" Arya who immediately snatched answered the question of Ramadan which was immediately replied with a nod of the head of Ramadan.

Arya immediately raised the small body of Ramadan up her arm.

" What does Rama want to eat?" ask Arya.

" Hmmm, to ep ci .." said Ramadan.

" Okay, boss!" Arya agreed to the request

Ramadan makes Ramadan laugh.

" Come ... !" Arya takes Anindita.

Anindita nodded her head then turned to the woman who had asked her to speak.

" Excuse me, Mum. I first ..." Anindita said goodbye to the woman who was taken by the woman earlier.

" Rama is happy not to walk with Om Arya?" arya asked Ramadhan, when she saw Ramadan eating fried chicken flour with greed.

" Call, Om.." The little boy said.

" Later Om take another walk Rama would want, dong?"

" Want, Om!" With a quick nod of the head Ramadan.

" Smart kid." Arya who had already finished eating and washed her hands immediately scrambled Ramadan hair.

" You happy to go with me, Nin?" arya asked a glance towards Anindita who was just silent.

" Make me the most important thing to see Rama happy, Mas." Anindita said what was honest, because she was indeed happy to see her son laughing happily.

" I also have a nine-year-old daughter. I divorced my wife five years ago. And my son lives with me and his grandmother. Next time I'll take him with us on the road together, yeah! So you can also get along with my son. As I can also get familiar with Ramadan." Arya stroked Ramadan's head making the little boy turn his head towards her.

While Arya's recognition of her status as a one-child widower made Anindita aghast. He had never expected to go that way before. And from the words of Arya who wants her to be close to Arya's daughter, she can guess if Arya really wants a serious relationship with her.

" Nin, do you mind if I want to start a serious relationship with you?"

Deg

" Not to be answered now if you still need to think more calmly to make a decision." Arya realized that her request was too rushed. He decided to give Anindita time to think.

" Good night, Mr. Arya ..."

Suddenly some young people came and said greetings to Arya.

" A weekly night with the family, sir?" ask one of the teenagers.

Arya simply put on her smile in response to the teenager's question.

" You're weekly nights too?" arya asked the four teenage boys and girls in front of her.

" Yes, sir." The four teenagers answered with a grin.

" Don't be too late coming home, yeah!" Arya gave them advice.

" Good, sir." The four of them returned.

" Yes, sir? What's his name, Dek?" ask one of the teenage girls while pinching the cheek of Ramadan chubby.

" Lamadan, Brother." Ramadhan.

" His name is Ramadhan, Brother." Arya makes clear Ramadan's speech.

" His son is funny, sir. So I want to take it home." Other teenage women chimed in while glancing at Anindita who immediately looked nervous because Ramadan was considered the son of Arya by the teenagers.

" Ah, sorry, Mom. I'm just kidding." The teenager immediately apologized to Anindita.

" The wife of Mr. Arya is beautiful, you know. It is fitting that Mr. Arya did not approach the teacher's mother who pedekate with Mr. Arya."

The words of the teenager had suddenly made Anindita meet, when she was considered the wife of Arya. Anindita immediately bit her lips while her sweaty hands held back the nervousness and embarrassment the teenager had made about her.

" Already, you do not heat up Mama Rama, dong. Look, tuh .. Mama Rama's face is red so." Arya's words made Anindita directly bow her head.

" Uh .. sorry, Mom. We don't mean to heat up Mom. Just to remind you to be more vigilant, because Mr. Arya is not just the dream school principal of students, but also the dream of single teacher mothers, Mom." The teenager who turned out to be students at the Aryan school explained.

Arya leaned her body while folding her hands on her chest and noticed Anindita who was increasingly misbehaved with the words of her students.

" Of course, you guys resume your show soon. Don't tempt Mama Rama on. You didn't see Mama Rama almost crying because of your report?"

Anindita straightened her head at Arya's words, and she found him smiling, making her bow her head again.

" Duh, I'm sorry, ma'am. We don't mean to make you sad, really." One of the students expressed regret.

" Already, quickly you finish your business and then quickly go home. Don't come home too late, yeah!" Aryan's advice is back.

" Good Sir. Excuse me, sir, Ma'am .." They left Arya, Anindita also Ramadan.

" They're all my students" Arya said as the four teenagers moved away from them.

" Hmmm, so Mas Arya's a teacher, huh?" anindita asked a little awkwardly.

" Secret more precisely." Arya.

Anindita sighed, of course Arya's current job made her inferior. How could he possibly continue to be in a relationship with Arya who had the position of principal? While he himself has a dark past until he can give birth to a Ramadan into this world. With the status of her who became pregnant out of wedlock and gave birth to a child of the victim of perko"saan, whether it will not be questioned by the people around Arya.
