ANINDITA, A Tale of the Past

Feeling Uncomfortable

Anindita checked all the flowers that went up on the pick up car. Because this afternoon he got the task of delivering a standing flower for the wedding party Dirgantara and Kirania, the boss of Ramadan's biological father.

At Ricky's recommendation, Alabama Florist was chosen as one of the florist shops that participated in the grand celebration of the owner of Angkasa Raya Group.

" All in, Mr Daus?" ask Anindita to Mr. Daus who will take her to the convention hall, where the celebration will be held.

" Already, Sister Anin." Mr. Daus closed the back door of the pick-up car.

" Shortly, I'll take Rama first, sir." Anindita asked permission to Mr. Daus who was ready to leave.

" okay, Ma'am. Relax .." said Mr. Daus.

Anindita immediately went back into the store and rushed to Lucy's study.

Tok tok tok tok

" Ci, I'm leaving right now between the flowers." After knocking on the door, Anindita went straight into Ci Lucy's room.

" But Rama's sleeping, Nin." Lucy points to Ramadhan who has fallen asleep on Lucy's couch by hugging Ricky's action figure.

" Oh my God, you sleepy, son?" Anindita is approaching Ramadan.

" His body is also a bit feverish, Nin. Don't build it up, pity .." said Lucy later.

" Yes, Ci .." said Anindita.

" Rama better not come, Nin. Cici think, Mr. Ricky can also understand if Rama is sleeping," said Lucy.

" Yes, Ci. I'm picking Rama yeah, Ci." Anindita does not have the heart to leave Ramadhan but Lucy assures her that she will keep Ramadan.

Finally without Ramadan, Anindita ushered in a flower decoration order for Dirga and Kirania decorations.

" The cost of a rich man's wedding must be billions huh, Ma'am?" ask Mr. Daus on the way to the convention hall.

" Surely, sir." Anindita.

" The cost of a party a day they can buy some houses people like us-we yes, Ma'am."

Anindita just smiled in response to Mr. Daus' words. It is true, for rich people like them to spend large amounts of money for the wedding is as easy as spending money on snacks.

" If Ms. Anin herself, why did she separate from her father Rama?"

Deg

Mr. Daus's question suddenly made Anindita's heart feel disturbed. Since the ruckus between Ricky and Arya at the flower shop at that time, especially now Ricky often brings Ramadan, all employees of the flower shop know that Ricky is the biological father of Ramadan.

" Hmmm, sorry, sir. Don't talk about it, yeah!" Anindita doesn't want to talk about Ricky.

" Oh, I'm sorry, Miss Anin." Mr. Daus expressed his regret and Anindita only smiled faintly in response.

Arriving at the destination, Anindita met one of the representatives of the WO to ask for the receipt paraf of the goods. After that he circulated the view of seeing decoration that looked very majestic and luxurious. And now his eyes rested on the figure of a man who was currently staring at him. Before long the man who is none other than Ricky now comes to him.

" Hey ..." Ricky said hello to Anindita. " Where's rama? Is he in the car?" ask Ricky then.

" I'm sorry, Mister. Rama was asleep, I couldn't bear to wake him." Anindita explains why she didn't bring Ramadan.

" Oh ..." Ricky looks disappointed.

" Hmmm, excuse me, sir." Anindita says goodbye and leaves Ricky.

" Miss Anin .." cried Ricky calling Anindita to stop Anindita's footsteps.

Ricky then followed Anindita's steps.

" What's up, Mister?" asked Anindita in surprise.

" There's a deposit for Rama in the car, come with me for a minute." Ricky asks Anindita to follow him to the man's car. But Anindita flinching still standing like before did not follow Ricky's steps.

" Why?" ricky asked as he saw Anindita still silent.

" You don't have to bother, sir." Anindita tried to refuse.

" Of course I don't feel bothered. I love doing this for my own flesh and blood."

Ricky looked at the pretty face of Anindita who seemed to be uncomfortable with his words earlier.

" Miss wait a minute here. I'll get my daycare for our son."

Ricky's heart rippled as he unconsciously said the word 'our child' from his lips. While Anindita's face immediately frowned. He doesn't seem to like Ricky saying our son's name.

" Wait a minute." Ricky rushes to his car to pick up the toy he was going to give Ramadhan.

Soon Ricky came back to Anindita with two large goodie bags in his hand.

" I'm putting this to Rama." Ricky thrust the two goodie bags at Anindita, making Anindita snort.

Anindita stared intently at Ricky who was smacking a smile on his lips.

" I'm sorry, Mister. I've told Mister, don't spoil Rama too much with all that you've given him. I raised him with simplicity not with luxury. I don't want what I've planted all this time against Rama to be broken because of everything you gave to my son!" anindita was upset. Because I don't know how many toys Ricky gave for Ramadan and Anindita is sure if it's not cheap.

" Miss, I just want to make up for the time I missed with Rama. And Rama is my son too, Miss. I hope Miss Anin can understand." Ricky reasoned.

" After all what I give is not worth the happiness I can find Ramadan" Ricky said.

Anindita sighed, she didn't want to argue back with Ricky.

Finally Anindita was forced to accept two goodie bags from Ricky's hands.

" Thank you, excuse me, Mr ..." Anindita then turns her body to leave Ricky.

" Missions, Ma'am."

And when Anindita turned her body she was shocked and hit the person who was lifting the buffet table until she was pushed and lost her balance. Anindita almost fell but Ricky's hand quickly grabbed Anindita's body which staggered back.

When hit by the man, Anindita was resigned he would fall. But suddenly he felt a sturdy hand coiling around his back until a masculine scent burst into his kiss. The same masculine fragrance that had smelled on his nose just before.

Anindita raised her head and now found Ricky who was putting on a face full of emotion.

" Are you not careful at work?!" ricky growled at the people who hit Anindita earlier.

Anindita immediately gasped, she tried to break away from Ricky's embrace but Ricky's hands were so strong to hold her.

" I'm sorry, Mister. We didn't see" replied the man who hit Anindita earlier.

" When you work look around! Don't play hit-and-bump!" Ricky still looks upset.

" What's up, Mr Ricky?" ask Kiki, the owner of the WO who handles the wedding party Dirga and Kirania.

" Are they your people, Miss Kiki?" ask Ricky.

" Oh, that's right, Mr. Ricky. They're officers from the cathering side. What's up, sir? Did they do anything wrong?" ask Kiki.

" They work banged up and are not careful" Ricky said.

" Oh, I'm sorry for their carelessness, Mr. Ricky." Kiki expressed her apology, But her eyes looked at Anindita who was still in Ricky's arms.

" You guys, quickly apologize for Mr. Ricky!" Kiki then told the men who had brought the buffet table to apologize.

Anindita who felt if Ricky's attitude was too excessive towards the employee of course felt bad, because she also felt guilty.

" We're sorry, sir." The men returned to offer their apologies.

" Oh yes, this time I'm sorry." Ricky said, "continue your work!" continued.

" Hmmm, once again I'm sorry, Mr. Ricky." Kiki bowed her body a little

" Yes .." said Ricky.

" I'm sorry, Mr. Ricky. I want to monitor the other preparations." Kiki says goodbye and leaves Ricky and Anindita.

" Take me off, sir!" When they lived together, Anindita again asked Ricky to remove his hands from his body.

" Oh .. sorry, Miss." Ricky immediately broke his embrace from Anindita's body.

" I'm sorry." After Ricky let go of his embrace. Anindita hurriedly ran away from Ricky. Because having to be close again intimately like before with a man who had once scowled his chastity made his heart uncomfortable.
