ANINDITA, A Tale of the Past

I'll Be Responsible

" So how's this, Pi? Anin's really pregnant." Sandra looks anxious while talking to Koh Leo in the living room.

" Anin can't work at the store, can she, Pi? Later other employees will be suspicious," continued Sandra again.

" Yes, Papi thinks so too, Mi." Koh Leo massaged his temple. What happened to Anin really made her dizzy.

" Did Anin tell me to rest at home, Pi?" Sandra gave input.

" Home here?"

" Yes, then where else? She can't possibly go back to her contract, especially in this state of pregnancy, who will be monitoring her? Not to mention later facing the neighbor's talk because of her pregnancy. There's him later even stress and it harms the fetus."

" Mi, is Anin willing to accept this pregnancy?" Koh Leo's question made Sandra immediately frown.

" Do you mean Papi?" search Sandra.

" Papi means, does Anin want to continue this pregnancy know she has the intention to abort it?"

" Good, Papi! Abortion is a sin, it's like murder, Pi!" Sandra raised her voice against what her husband had said earlier.

" Papi'll just ask, Mi. Who knew Anin had thoughts in that direction." Koh Leo dismissed the notion that he had the crazy idea.

" If Anin has any intention in that direction, Mami will get in the way. Let's just take care of the kid rather than abort." Sandra immediately intends to adopt Anin's child if Anin chooses to stop her pregnancy.

" Yes, that means Anin's been put away. Don't have to be told to hold a job, Mi. He can't work too hard."

" Where would he want to be quiet, Pi. Anin is not the type of person who likes to sit on his hands. He was not asked to help Bi Teti's work. Especially now that he does not work in the store and much at home, surely any work he wants to do." Sandra understood that Anin was not the lazy type.

" Yes from Mami just monitor, he does not hold a heavy job. It's a pity that he reached soy sauce" Koh Leo said.

Sandra was silent to her husband's words. She suddenly felt disturbed when she remembered Cyntia's remark this morning about the possibility that could happen if she put a foreign woman inside her house.

" bg ... " Sandra then looked at Koh Leo's face, she wanted to know the expression of her husband's face.

" Anin's pretty, huh, Pi?" sandra asked provoked the husband's reaction. " Papi doesn't like seeing beautiful women like Anin?"

Koh Leo turned to his wife and opened his glasses.

" Why is Mom talking like that? Don't tell me Mami wants Papi to marry Anin ..." Koh Leo chuckled as he said that sentence.

" Ck, where there is a wife who tells her husband to marry another woman." Sandra quickly denied.

" Why then did Mami suddenly talk like that?" Koh Leo looked at the words of his wife who was stung strangely in his ear earlier.

Sandra sighed, she hesitated between wanting to say or not what made her uneasy.

" Mi, what is Mami thinking?" koh Leo asked, apparently realizing that his wife was thinking about something. Finally Sandra decided to tell Cyntia what she feared about Anin's whereabouts with her husband.

Koh Leo took a deep breath and approached his wife.

" The one who asked Anin to stay here, who? Mommy herself, right? Honestly when Mami allowed Anin to stay in this house, Papi was proud to have a wife like Mami. Have high empathy for people who are stricken by disaster. Do not make the reward that Mami can because helping people who are in trouble is lost because Mami is affected by people's speech. Papi already considers Anin like his own sister. He's an orphan, there's no family he can count on to help him. Papi looks like he's reflecting on himself. Mommy see, Papi doesn't have any brothers either. No one helps us when we are in trouble. But fortunately Papi had a wife like Mami who patiently accompanied Papi."

" Yes Mami remember, Pi."

Meanwhile, without them knowing if their trial was caught by the ears of Anindita who was about to ask permission to return to her contract tomorrow morning.

Sandra's story about the allegations made by the obstetrician who examined her this morning made her heart a little uncomfortable. How could the doctor accuse her of taking the husband away from Sandra? He is not a selfless man, capable of repaying the good of others with betrayal.

Anindita undoes her intention to express her purpose now, especially when she sees Leo hugging Sandra, it feels bad to disturb their romantic mood. Anindita decided to return to her room.

Anindita looked at her flat stomach. Maybe in a few months his stomach will expand and get bigger because of the fetus that has been residing in his womb. The foetus results from the rape she experienced, which was committed by someone she did not know at all. Immediately the clear liquid fell on his cheek.

" Look at your actions, sir. I have to bear it myself, hiks .. hiks ..." the sound of sobbing ended Anindita's complaint before she finally laid her body on the bed and fell asleep with tears still dripping down her cheeks.

Ricky kept looking restless in his sleep. Dreams about babies continue to haunt him.

" Pope ... Papa ... hiks .. hix ...."

" Papa is evil, Papa does not love the same dede, Papa jahaaaatttt ...!!"

" Shaanakk ...!" Ricky woke up from his sleep. He shook his head as he continued to say, "No, I'm not like that ..." Ricky rubbed his face rough.

Ricky pulled out his blanket. With only bare chest and using a boxer he then stepped towards the bathroom. He washed his face under the water in the sink and dried it with a small towel.

Ricky looked at his face in the mirror.

" Why have I been dreaming about babies lately? And why do the babies always call me Papa? Is it because I worry about that woman too much? Or maybe the woman was pregnant with my child?" ricky closed his eyes for a moment. But when he opened his eyes again, his eyes immediately opened wide when he saw the reflection of a smiling baby waving at him in the mirror. Suddenly Ricky turned to the back where he stood, but no one was there. Ricky rushes out of the bathroom and grabs his cell phone to call someone's number.

Ricky looked at the clock that was showing at half-eleven in the night. He felt that it was not too late to contact the person he was heading to.

" Hello, Den. Please find a woman like the previous features but is in a pregnant condition about .. one month or less." Ricky tries to remember when the incident happened. " Please send some more people. The time to find just one person seems hard." Ricky was getting a little upset because the guy he told didn't find the woman.

After contacting his man, Ricky again laid his body with both hands folded under his head.

" Where are you at the moment, miss? If you were pregnant with my child, I would be responsible for my actions. Believe Miss. I'm not the kind of cowardly man who always runs away from responsibility" Ricky muttered back as he closed his eyes trying to rest his body and mind.
