CHASING ANITA'S LOVE

Meet 3

.Two days after the second visit of Ratih and Rico, Anita arrived to get a call from Ratih who said that Ratih wanted to meet.

Ratih said he wanted to talk to Anita, who finally agreed they met at a restaurant not far from Anita's second place.

Anita had just arrived at the intended restaurant, when a voice reprimanded her.

"Let's get Anita inside." said Ratih directly holding Anita's hand.

Anita doesn't feel good about getting treated like that." O ....Yes, Ma'am,'

The two took place in a corner of the rather sheltered restaurant room.

Ratih immediately ordered a meal and asked Anita to also choose the menu that Anita wanted.

"Order what Anita wants.'

" Good Mom, thank you."

Anita only ordered soto, because she still felt full.

No how long their orders came.

" Let's eat first, after this I just convey my intention 'rich Ratih while smiling.

Anita nodded her head.

"Good mom.'

Both of them eat in silence.

Anita actually feels completely wrong with the situation she faces now.

Many questions swirled in his brain.

Ratih looked at Anita who was sitting in front of him, he took a deep breath.

"Anita, I'm sorry to ask you to come."

Anita remained silent, she waited for Ratih to continue his words.

' My anita is not someone who can speak stale.....would you be a mother to Rico?"

Anita was silent for a moment, was her hearing wrong? How could the new Ratih he had only met twice asking to be a mother to his granddaughter and this was a serious matter for Anita, and she could not possibly agree, especially with her current condition,under normal circumstances it is not necessarily.

Anita looked at Ratih who seemed to be waiting for his answer.It seemed very disturbing.

"Mom.sorry...whether the mother is not wrong person, I do not deserve the offer of the mother., I can not ma'am.' said Anita flat.

Ratih looked at Anita, disappointed, "Can you give me a reason I can accept Anita.....'

Anita, looking at the middle-aged woman in front of her, how could it be possible to cross the desire in Ratih's mind to make her the mother of Rico, whereas Ratih did not recognize her.

"Mom, you don't know me, we've only met twice, how can this make such a decision, you don't know if I'm good or not, right or not..."

"I know you're good Anita, you love Rico.If you mind I ask you very much for Rico's sake, during his growing up, during his growing up,maybe later as time goes by Rico starts to understand you can let go.'

Anita looked at Ratih with question marks." What do you mean mother?"

"Mother asks you to be Rico's mother, always accompanying Rico until not much time he understands the real situation.Mom just wants Anita to play the role of a full mother to Rico, but she will not be able to understand the real situation,in accordance with Rico's desire to have Anita stay with him, I knew it would sacrifice Anita's freedom, I was actually embarrassed to say this, she said,but for the sake of my grandson even though I have to kneel down, I will do it." said Ratih slowly while bowing his head .

Shadows the face of her grandson who was expecting Anita, eyes that sparkled every time he mentioned Anita's name.

Anita looked at Ratih, what a turmoil in her chest between pity for Ratih and shame on her condition.

"Mom, you better find someone else, I'm not as good as you or Rico think...'

"No son Anita, I hope Anita will accept it, I've thought about cooking"

Anita shook her head.

"I don't deserve mom."

"Why Anita?"

"I'm a failure, so it's not good for Rico...' Anita breathed.

" For me and Rico, son, you're the one who deserves it.'

"No ma'am, I don't deserve it." said Anita.

" There's nothing special in my heart ma'am.'

"What makes Anita refuse?Does Anita want to think I will curb the freedom of Anita after being Rico's mother?.......I don't do that, son Anita is free to work, just that I want. when Rico needs son Anita is always with him."

Anita was silent listening to him, but to her it was absurd.

How could he accept such an absurd idea .

"Anita.......,"

"Will you help me this time?"

"Marry Rohan, papa Rico, please Anita,demi Rico."

said Ratih in a clear tone.

Anita is silent can not talk, now she is faced with a strange problem

"Mom, I'm not a good fit for Rico or his papa, I'm a failure ."

"Don't look down on yourself like that Anita, no human being is perfect."

"Mom, I'm not a girl anymore, I was married but ended in divorce, please think well, my circumstances will only ruin the good name of Rico and his papa,"

"I don't care about my good name, or anything, I care about my grandson's happiness.'

"But I can't marry papa Rico either, I don't love her and also of course papa Rico doesn't love me"

"This marriage is just a status.....'

"I know you don't love each other, maybe you haven't even met or known each other."

Anita was silent without interrupting.

"I fight for this for Rico, even if you and Rohan get married, nothing will happen, I promise, your marriage is just on paper,Rohan has also promised not to interfere or interfere with all your activities."

'But why do we have to get married ma'am?"

"Because Rico will definitely introduce you to his friends or other family that you are his mother, I do not want Rico sad and ridiculed people if the mother who was introduced was not clear status.!" ratih said.

Anita felt that what Ratih said was true, and she also did not want to separate from Rico, because Ricolah who had made her heart gradually improve since the divorce she experienced, with Rico she felt very comfortable, because Ricolah had made her heart gradually improve since the divorce,but what about his father Rico, Anita only ever spoke once.

"What about Rico's dad?"

"Rohan is willing for Rico's sake, and don't worry Rohan won't bother you or force you to fulfill a wife's obligations."

Anita looked at Ratih doubtfully, as if searching for the truth with what Ratih said.

"What I say is true, I assure you Rohan will not demand you to serve him."

Anita scrunched her eyebrows together."Mean mother?"

"Just as with you, Rohan also experienced failure only different events, and until now Rohan lived in the shadow of Linda, his wife who died from the disease he suffered.Linda , mama of Rico.'

"Rohan also actually rejected my idea because she considered herself to have betrayed Linda, but I couldn't see Rico suffering because of her papa's ego."

Anita listened to the words spoken by Ratih, Anita felt Rohan was in his own world, meaning later there will be no interaction too often

time with Rohan .

"How about Anita?"

"Give me two days to think mom, I should also ask my mom's opinion."

"Well, I hope I get a satisfactory answer, because my grandson's happiness for me is very important

Soon the two left the restaurant and promised to meet again at the same place.

Anita looked at Ratih's departure with a still uneasy feeling.

****

Anita walked along the sidewalk, she did not want to go home.Anita wanted to find a quiet place that could make her think clearly. Anita headed for the city park not far from where she is now.
