ANINDITA, A Tale of the Past

Anindita's Anxiety

" Arya sir?" Ricky gasps as he opens the door of his apartment he finds Arya standing in front of the door.

" Good night, Mr. Ricky. I want to meet Rama, has he slept?"

Ricky frowned and looked at Arya. As he recalled during Arya dropping off and picking up Ramadhan, Arya never visited her apartment in person.

" Oh, yes ... Rama's in my room, he's asleep" Ricky said.

" Can I see him for a minute?"

Ricky's forehead is back in a frown. Arya's arrival seems strange to him. Why did Arya come to see Ramadan? Is not almost every day the man can meet Ramadan rather than himself who is only given a ration once a week to be with Ramadan.

" Oh, please, Mr. Arya." Although still filled with question marks, Ricky finally allowed Arya to meet Ramadan who had been asleep since the afternoon.

Arya walked closer towards the bed where Ramadan was asleep. Arya rubbed the head of Ramadan gently.

" He's a smart kid because he was born to a great father and a tough mother. He looked so happy when he said he would soon have Papa. She missed that position so much beside her." Arya's words really make Ricky's heart seem pinched because he is not the one called Papa by his own son.

" I love Rama a lot even though he is not my own son. Because I also want someone to love my child if I don't exist someday. I accept Rama in my life as I accept Anindita."

Ricky looked at Arya, he should admire the figure of the man before him. Arya can accept the presence of women like Anindita with the background of Anindita's previous life.

" You're lucky, Mr. Arya. Rama can call you Papa." Without denying there is a little envy in the heart of Ricky because of the very special treatment of Ramadan to Arya.

" You don't have to worry Mr. Ricky, there will come a time when Rama finds out if you are the real father." Arya tries to calm Ricky down.

" Your wife is too stubborn, Mr. Arya. He didn't give me the chance to get really close to Rama. I'd like from the beginning Rama to know if I am his father so that Rama does not experience the confusion as before when your daughter says if I am Rama's Papa." There was a sense of resentment in Ricky's heart as he recalled Anindita's stubbornness.

" Mister Ricky should take it. Anindita has no relatives. After that incident he was lucky to meet good people around him while still in Malang or when he moved to Jakarta. Had he not been helped by his boss. Can Mr Ricky imagine how Anin got scorn from the community for the pregnancy results perko*saan experienced it?"

Ricky let out a sigh that felt quite heavy in his inhalation. What Arya said is true. Maybe he did not realize if even selfish enough to immediately get recognition from Ramadan.

" Anin's very sensitive to you, Mr. Ricky. Therefore I hope Mr. Ricky does not always make Anin upset. Mr. Ricky has to be patient with him. Treat him with gentleness, because that's what he's looking for in a man, surely one day Mr. Ricky can melt his heart."

Ricky shook his head as he turned his eyes to another place. He really did not understand the words Arya had spoken just now. Facing with gentleness? Tear Anindita's heart? Anindita is not the woman she wants to make her lover or companion in life. Then why should he try to melt Anindita's heart? thought Ricky.

" I'm sorry, Mr. Arya. I ..." Ricky gasped as he turned his head back towards Arya who was sitting on the edge of the bed, now he did not find the figure again there.

" Arya Pa!" Ricky walked outside to look for Arya.

" Pa Arya, where are you?" Ricky was a little screaming looking for Arya. He then returned to his room. Ricky checked into the bathroom and the balcony of his apartment, but Arya's figure was not met.

" Mr. Arya ...!!" Ricky keeps screaming and looking for Arya's whereabouts.

" Om, Om Ricky why are you calling Papa Arya?"

Ricky gasped as he felt the clapping sound on his cheek and the sound of Ramadan being heard in his ear..

Ricky got up and sat down. He looked at the clock on the wall that had shown three o'clock past fifteen minutes in the morning.

" Why call Papa Arya? Om Papa Arya's dream, huh?" ask Ramadan.

Ricky rubbed the head of Ramadan.

" Yes, that was Papa Arya's dream. Papa Arya wants to see Rama so Papa Arya comes in his dream Om." Ricky explained.

" Now Rama bobo again, yes! It's still dark." Ricky told Ramadhan to go back to sleep. While he continued to think hard about the dream he had just experienced in his sleep.

" Assalamualaikum, dear ...."

Anindita gasped when she heard a familiar voice whispering a very melodious greeting in her ear making Anindita instantly turn her body.

" Arya's Mas?" Anindita immediately embraced her husband's body.

" Arya, have you come home? He said he'd go to Jogya first?" Anindita frowned because the husband said he would visit his former teacher at school.

" Yes, I stopped by here for a while to see you, honey." Arya rubbed Anindita's head gently.

Anindita squinted her eyes at the husband's explanation. Why did her husband say to stop by for a while to see her now.

" Where else is Arya going? How do you say you're gonna stop by here for a second?" asked Anindita in surprise.

" Mad is going. I just want to hug you and our baby one last time."

Anindita gasped at the words that sounded so terrifying in her ears.

" Yes! What is this Arya talking about?!" sergeant Anindita did not like to hear the words spoken by her husband.

" Don't talk like that!" Anindita immediately seemed riled up with the words that came out of her husband's mouth.

" Dear you, and love our baby." Arya stuck her knee until now position her parallel to Anindita's stomach. He then kissed Anindita's stomach with tenderness.

Anindita felt warmth as Arya's lips touched her stomach skin. She rubbed Arya's dense hair feeling peace as she received a touch from her husband.

Arya soon stood up. He gently caressed his wife's pretty face. Slowly he brought his lips closer to Anindita's lips and pinned a touch full of feeling very deep, until a clear liquid felt fell on the skin of Anindita's face, making the beautiful woman gasp and take off her pagutan.

" Why is Mas Arya crying?" asked Anindita in surprise.

" It's happy, honey. I am happy to meet a woman like you. But Mas sad, for having to leave you ...."

Deg

Anindita's heart felt almost detached from her position, even her heart was pounding very hard when Arya said she was leaving.

" May ..." Anindita rubbed her husband's handsome face.

" I love you, baby." Arya kissed Anindita's forehead long enough.

" I love you too, Mom." Anindita.

" Take care of yourself, honey. Take care of our son." Arya then broke her embrace and walked backwards away from Anindita.

" Where are you going?" anindita asked but Arya just smiled not answering Anindita's question. His body turned around to walk away.

" Yes!! Where is Arya going? I'm coming ...!!" yelled Anindita wanted to run after Arya but she felt a hand blocking her arm.

Anindita looked at the tiny hand holding her left hand.

" Mama .." Ramadan's voice was heard later.

" Rama, Mama wants to come with Papa! Let's go after Papa!" Anindita again wanted to chase Arya but again there was a hand that gripped her arm.

" Mrs!"

Anindita gasps when she hears Ricky holding her right hand.

" What did Master do?! Release me!! I want to follow my husband!!" anindita brushes Ricky's hand.

" No, Madam!! You can't go! Madam should stay here!!"

" Let go of my words!! I want to go with Arya!!" Anindita then turned to her husband but she did not find the figure of her husband there.

" Arya's Mas?" Anindita gasped to see Arya's shadow was no longer visible in front of her.

" More Aryan ...!! My Aryan ...!!" Anindita screamed hysterically

" Arya ...!!" cry Anindita until finally she woke up from her dream with a sigh.

" Athaghfirullahal adzim, why do I dream like that?" muttered Anindita holding her chest.

Anindita felt her bedroom dark even though she did not turn off the lights during sleep earlier.

" What's the lights off? Why is it so dark?" Anindita then tried to take her phone on the nightstand to find out what time it is now, but when she felt on the nightstand she nudged an object until it fell to the floor.

Prankk

" Athaghfirullahal adzim .." Anindita cried in shock and at the same time the lights in the room were back on until Anindita could see what had fallen.

Anindita gasps as she finds Arya's picture frame falling below. He slowly grabbed the picture frame. He immediately remembered the dream he had just experienced. And anxiety suddenly crept into his whole heart.

Anindita glanced at the clock on the wall that had shown at three past thirty minutes in the morning. Anindita also tried to take a slow breath, she felt the more intense anxiety felt by her.

" Oh my God, what is this? Why don't I feel so good?" anindita Gumam.
