ANINDITA, A Tale of the Past
The Executive Assistant
" Nin, Cici apologize, yes! Cici forgot to tell you. That guy did go into the store, wondering about you, but Cici didn't say that you live here. Cici also said that you no longer work from the store. Cici was wondering how that guy got here." Lucy expresses her regret after Ricky leaves them.
" How did that guy get here?" ask Arya wonder.
" Anin said she saw the man deliver the wreath to the Space Landmark's apartment this afternoon." Lucy answered Arya's question.
" And the man knew about Rama. Nin, has that guy been watching you all this time?" Lucy guessed.
" I don't think it's possible for that person to keep an eye on Anin all this time, Ci. If Anin has been under surveillance all this time, why hasn't that person come here in the past? Why is it that after Anin accidentally saw that guy this afternoon that guy just came here?" Arya tries to think rationally.
" It's true too, yes!" Lucy nodded her head in agreement.
" He already knew this place, he also already knew about Rama. What if that guy comes here again and wants to take Rama, Mas?" Anindita is back.
" I'll make sure it doesn't happen, Nin!" Arya.
" But I'm afraid, Mas.." Anindita worried.
"There's nothing to be afraid of, Nin. I'll protect you." Arya tried to keep Anindita calm.
" So what now, Mr Arya?" Lucy was also worried.
Arya thought for a moment while sighing.
" I will take Anin and Rama out of this place right now, Miss Lucy" Arya said.
The suddenness of what Arya said made Anindita aghast.
" Where is Arya taking me?" ask Anindita.
" Tonight I'll find you an inn. Later if I have asked people to tidy up my private house, I will take you to live there. Because the plan is that once we get married we'll live there." Arya caressed Anindita's head.
Anindita now turned her head towards Lucy as if she was asking for her boss's approval.
" Cici agrees with Mr. Arya, Nin. Because Cici is also worried that tonight she will come back here again. Cici's afraid she's ordered a man to kidnap you, Nin. Because when viewed from the appearance of the same vehicle he was wearing it seems he is not a random person you know, Nin." Lucy looks paranoid.
" No need to bring a lot of clothes. Just prepare a few pieces." Arya then walked towards Anindita's room. " Where's your suitcase? Let me help you prepare." Arya then took down Anindita's suitcase from the top of the closet and helped Anindita pack her clothes as well as Ramadan.
Meanwhile, when Ricky arrives at the apartment, he immediately picks up something in his desk drawer. Two photos Sandra gave him two years ago. Ricky's heart rippled as he looked at Ramadan. The boy he had seen was directly facing him.
" Oh my God, he's really my flesh and blood." Ricky's chest felt tight and with the eyeballs condensing.
" He's my son, my flesh and blood." Ricky hugged the photo. " Patience, my son. Papa will definitely come for you." Ricky's promise in my heart. He was very sorry for abandoning his son.

Bend the day Ricky returns to Alabama Florist. He's a tenacious guy. Moreover, during these five years he tried to find the whereabouts of Anindita, where maybe after he found her he would just give up.
Ricky walked towards the building where Anindita lived.
" What is it that you came here again? Anin's mother is no longer living there," a florist shop employee who yesterday saw Ricky clashing with Arya immediately told Ricky when he saw Ricky walking towards Anindita's residence
" Where is he now? Do you know where he is now?" search Ricky.
" I'm sorry I don't know, sir. Excuse me.." The employee immediately left Ricky.
Hearing information from flower shop employees about Anindita who did not live there made Ricky finally choose to enter the florist store.
" Tu-tuan?" Mita who returned to find the appearance of Ricky immediately gasped.
" W-why did you come here again?" ask Mita.
" I want to find Miss Anindita, I heard she's already moved out of her residence behind. Do you know where he moved to?" ask Ricky straightforwardly.
" Then I want to meet your boss, can I talk to him?"
" A minute, Sir. I asked if Ci Lucy was busy or not." Mita then calls Lucy.
" Hello, Ci. Ci, Rama's papa came again, he said he wanted to talk to Cici. How, Ci?" mita said speaking quietly on the phone.
" Came again? What'd he want to talk to me about?" lucy is shocked.
" No idea, Ci. So how's this, Ci?" ask Mita again.
" Yes, just ask to come in."
" Okay, Ci." Mita then turns off the phone.
" Let's come with me, sir." Mita walks into Lucy's study.
After letting Ricky in, Mita goes outside Lucy's room, leaving Ricky and Lucy alone.
" Excuse me, Madam. Sorry if I interrupted your time" Ricky said as he entered Lucy's study.
" What else did you come here for?" Lucy to the point asked. Of course Lucy still feels upset with Ricky, because all she knows is Ricky has taken Anindita's chastity without knowing how sorry he was all along.
" I understand if the Madam is acting less friendly towards me. Maybe because Miss Anindita told me about what I did to her first. I am indeed breng*sek. But believe me I'm not what the lady thinks. I deeply regret that I did. The day after the incident that night, I tried to find Miss Anindita but for five years I didn't get a meeting point." Ricky begins to tell Lucy about how he attempts to get some people to search for Anindita's whereabouts, until he stops because he mistakenly suspects the person who has been his victim until a meeting with Koh Leo's family, who are still in the process, good people who have been accommodating Anindita until Anindita gave birth to Ramadan. Ricky also tells how Anindita finally had to get out of Koh Leo's house because Leo's older cousin wanted Anindita.
Lucy heard Ricky's story about Koh Leo's family all similar to the one Anindita had told her. And finally Lucy also knows how Ricky can know about Ramadan because Ricky got information from Koh Leo. Lucy listens and watches Ricky as he tells her everything. He also saw how much Ricky regretted his actions. But Lucy was confused what to say? He cannot tell Anindita whereabouts without Anindita's permission first, although Ricky has convinced her that he does not intend to take Ramadan out of Anindita's hands.
Ricky then took out a business card from his wallet and thrust it to Lucy.
" If the Madam changes her mind and deigns to give me information, the Madam can call me at that number."
Lucy just quietly did not immediately receive a business card that Ricky put on his desk.
" I'm sorry, ma'am. Sorry if it interrupts your time." Ricky then gets up and leaves Lucy's study.
Lucy let out a long sigh after Ricky's departure, she herself was confused as to how to behave. He then grabbed the business card that was offered by Ricky.

Lucy's eyes are perfectly rounded, even her hair immediately stands when she sees the fatherhood of Ramadan turns out to be an important person in one of the big companies in this country.
