CHASING ANITA'S LOVE

Want to see the garden

This morning Rohan was ready to go to work when his mother called him.

" Rohan, wait a minute, Mama wants to talk to you.

Rohan stopped his steps.

" What's wrong ma?"

" Mommy wants to see your papa's garden, long time no longer there."

Actually to say the garden is not too, just a plot of land covering an area of about seven hectares planted with rubber trees, the land is entrusted to the confidants of his father Rohan who is usually called the foreman Joko.

The result is also not how much everything is intended for pa Joko and some workers there.

All the results and results are given to them.

"Do you have time, Johan?"

" Later Rohan look at the schedule in the office ma" said Rohan.

" Yes Rohan" said his mother.

" Where were Rico and Anita ma, since morning not seen ?" ask Rohan.

" Maybe in the room, Mama Memnag has not seen since, maybe because Rico has been off school so nothing is done" replied Ratih.

Rohan nodded his head.

" Rohan wants to see Rico first ma" said Rohan walking towards Rico's room.

Rohan looks into Rico's room, whose door is open, and Anita appears to be making Rico's bed

Rohan enters Rico's room.

up

" Where's Rico?" rohan asked Anita.

" Rico again took a bath.' said Anita who seemed to not care about the presence of Rohan, Anita did not stop her work

Rohan sees Anita making Rico's bed.

" Are there any plans for a vacation for Rico." Rohan asked Anita a little stiff, because all this time , even though their one house never rebuked.

Anita stops her work and looks at Rohan for a moment,

" Don't know yet, it's better to ask Rico, wait .. soon Rico is done bathing" said Anita flat.

It felt like the cold enveloped the two, Not long ago Rico came out of the bathroom and saw Rohan, his father was in the room.

" Father?" greet Rico with a frown.

" Papa's gonna ask Rico,."

" Yes pa.'

"Where is this vacation going to Rico?"

Rohan looked at his son who was still wrapped in a towel '

Anita appears to have taken Rico's clothes from the closet.

" Rico does not want where, at home aja pa, which is important.sama Anita and grandmother.' said Rico.

Anita approached Rico with her clothes, unaffected by the conversation between father and son.

Rohan looked at his son as if searching for the truth with what had just been said.

" Riko doesn't want a vacation, a walk like Rico's friend?"

" No pa, Rico just wants to be home with mom and grandma." said Rico asserted.

Rohan looked at Anita who was just silent but rubbed Rico's hair with a small towel.

" Well if that's Rico's decision, but if you change your mind, tell papa ya ' said Rohan.

" Yes.pa.'

" Papa left first.' Rohan paid a farewell to Rico as his eyes looked at Anita who did not react in the slightest.

Rohan felt Anita like a mannequin often displayed in shops, no expression just staring at her with a flat face.

Rohan immediately came out of Rico's room.

" lady....Rohan is leaving."Rohan told his mother.

Ratih nodded his head.

" Bet the heart."

Ratih looked at the passing of his son Rohan.

***

Rohan enters his office space as usual.There is nothing special the day, everything goes as usual, the work is always waiting.

Rohan looked at the little nanar figura on his desk.

Rohan took the figura and looked at it in silence.

" Linda...what should I do, why can you leave me, leave our child." Rohan muttered in his heart.

His feelings are very painful, and Linda's departure leaves a very deep wound.Nearly ten years through it with solitude.Some times Rohan tried to establish a relationship with women but everything ran aground in the middle of the road.

Until finally Rohan no longer desire to have a companion to life, build a household like most people.

The same is the case with Ratih, his mother, several times introduced the daughter of friends and friends, but none of them can arouse Rohan's desire to be married.

Until Ratih gives up.

Actually Rohan wants to ask Anita, but time and opportunity are not there, moreover Anita always keeps her distance from herself.

Rohan put back the photo Linda in place, why there is a feeling of wanting to keep the photo in his desk drawer.Rohan again grabbed Linda's photo and put it in his desk drawer.

Rohan breathed a sigh of relief.

Like he just let go of a heavy burden.

Rohan finally decided Sunday morning he would take his mother to visit his papa heritage garden.

\*\*\*

Because Rico doesn't want to go anywhere during school holidays, it's just that they're home.

" An..mama there is a plan to invite you and Rico to visit papa Rico's estate." said Ratih to Anita while they ate lunch.

" Where is ma?"

"In the village X. from here we take a four-hour journey, if there are no transverse arals.'

Anita nodded her head while looking at Ratih.

" Do you want to accompany your mother?' ask Ratih.

" Yes ma, Anita would, but what about Rico,ma?"

" We are just one day, Rico would." replied Ratih.

" Yes, ma."

" Later mama will talk to Rico, An."

Anita nodded looking at the delighted looking Ratih.

The two continued to eat lunch quietly, Rico said he was still full so did not eat.

***

Ratih approached Rico who was playing his violin,

" Rich....."

"Yes, grandma."

"Rico wants to come with grandma to see grandpa's garden?"

Rico stopped the game.

" Grandfather's garden? Where's grandma? " ask Rico enthusiastically.

" In village X, away from here.."

" There rame no granny."

" Rico.. there was a quiet, forest-like, but rubber forest" said Ratih laughing.

" Oh...If Rico wants to leave, grandma."

" Did Rico really want to go with grandma?"

Rico nodded his head, "Mama Anita's coming too, right?"

" Yes.mama Anita is in love."

Rico nodded his head.

"Later papa's with us" Ratih told Rico.

" Yes .nek." so said Rico while playing his violin again.

Ratih leaves Rico because he does not want to interfere with his grandson's pleasure.

Ratih intends to prepare all the needs that will be brought to the garden, but Rohan just called him saying that they can. visit his papa garden.

Ratih immediately told Anita that they were leaving on Sunday morning.

' We're leaving on Sunday morning.' Said Ratih to Anita.

Sunday morning means two more days.

" An...later accompany mama shopping yes, for by Mr. Joko the same job there.' pinta Ratih.

" Yes.ma."

" Mama wants to take a shower first, after that we shop.' said Ratih.

Anita nodded her head in agreement.

**"

Anita was surprised to see her in-laws shopping so much, but she did not dare to ask her in-laws.She just followed and brought the goods her in-laws bought.

It did not feel nearly three hours Ratih and Anita shopping and all the shopping had filled the car until there was placed in front, so, in-laws to sit just unusual.

After everything they were looking for was complete, they went home.

Ratih looked exhausted, having bought so many things.

" It was quite tired today." said Ratih while leaning his body on the passenger seat, while Anita was driving.

" We're going home An....'

"Yes ma..."
