CHASING ANITA'S LOVE

I'm giving up

For almost a month Anita and Rohan have been sleeping in one room, and so far nothing has happened to them, physical contact is limited to the touch of a hand

During the week Rohan takes her to the office, because Rico is off school, after Rico enters school Anita returns to the routine of dropping off and picking up Rico.

Anita feels the change in Rico, it seems Rico is more mature and more independent than ever,

If usually Rico will wrestle spoiled with him every school, now no longer, but Rico always asked the situation of his father.

Rico looked more attentive to his papa, Anita was happy to see the change in Rico.

" Ma .. If Rico can ride his own vehicle, Rico no longer wants to be on the shuttle and picked up by mama.'

rico said with a smile.

" Why?" anita asked in surprise.

"Better mama accompany papa just work" said Rico

"But papa is used to himself, and again mama will interfere with papa's work there," said Anita in a flat tone.

" But papa isn't his friend 'ma 'papa himself' Rico said.

" There's a lot of papa employees helping out there.....Rico doesn't have to worry" Anita comforted Rico.

Rico was silent, taking a look at the scenery along the way.

" Ma... the day after Rico has participated in the camp that will be held at school for a week" said Rico explained.

" Yes...mama has heard, Rico really wants to come?" ask Anita .

" Yes ma."

" Rico won't find grandma, papa or mama there?" ask Anita again.

Rico laughed, "No ma...malu ma..., Rico's time is so, Rico's been great ."

Anita looks at Rico happy, because Rico has started not to rely too much on him , Rico began to be independent.

" Rico, you like Rico, keep going like this" Anita said, rubbing Rico's shoulder.

" Ma... later if Rico goes to camp, you want to accompany papa to his office."

Anita is confused to hear Rico's request.

" Why Rico..?"

" Rico is afraid that someone is bothering you" Rico said as he played his fingers.

" Papa has grown up Rico, no one dared to bother papa" said Anita flat, actually she wanted to laugh at Rico's words which for her are very funny.

Rico just kept quiet to hear Anita's answer .He looked at Anita who seemed focused on driving.

Both seemed to be quietly dissolving in their minds.

****

Anita prepares Rico's needs for camping at her school .The event is an annual regular event to commemorate their school Birthday and will be held for a week.

The event also aims to make children learn.self under the strict supervision of teacher teachers at school.

Rico for the first time joined because that makes his grandmother Ratih a bit anxious, Anita also. Only Rohan's papa looked rather relaxed.

" Rico...do you really want to come? " ask Ratih hoping Rico changes his mind.

" Yes grandma...Rico has grown up." Rico replied enthusiastically.

" Yes. .. already... but Rico do not forget to call grandma or mama yes, if there" said Ratih with an anxious tone.

Anita felt all the needs of Rico was no one left behind, all of them have been put in the car, so just leave .

" Rico..pamit is equally papa." said Anita.

Rico nodded and walked towards Rohan's room. Anita and Ratih wait on the terrace.

Ratih wants to take Rico.

Ratih looks agitated.

" Ma.it's okay Rico wants to learn independently we have to support, it's okay,because the male Rico will one day be the backbone of the family and will also continue what his papa is doing at this time," said Anita comforting her in-laws who seemed unwilling to part with her granddaughter.

In fact, if you think Rico only attended the school camp, not outside the area, Train too anxious.

" Yes....Hopefully Rico is okay there" said Ratih expectantly.

Anita sees Rico with Rohan next to her.Anita immediately goes to the car followed by Rico and Ratih.After saying goodbye to Rohan the three of them leave the house to Rico's school.

Rico looks very happy

Unlike his grandmother Ratih who looks still anxious.

Not eating long they had reached the school gate, They were forbidden to come in, the parents delivered only limited to the school gate, there was a security guard who had stood guard in front of the gate.

Anita and Ratih see Rico carrying his luggage, Ratih feels sorry to see Rico, but can't help him, they can only see from a distance.

And when they see Rico waving his hand it means they have to leave Rico's school.

It was with a heavy heart that Ratih and Anita finally left Rico's school.

Both are heading home.

Anita was shopping a monthly routine when her Handphone rang.

Anita looks at the screen of the phone that says my husband.

Anita lift.

" Hello."

" Hello...An ...where is it?"

" I'm a song for home shopping, routine shopping" Anita said.

" Where is it?"

" On xxx mart.A street."

" Ok.I'm going there."

" But ..."

The phone call has been decided unilaterally.

Anita exhaled and continued to choose the items she needed.

" Anita.." Someone's voice called her name.

Anita turned around and saw that Hardi was already standing behind her.

Anita just kept silent not answering and continued her activities.

" How are you?"

Anita turned to Hardi for a while and then refocused on her shopping.

" Good.." said Anita flat and walked away from Hardi.

But Hardi kept up with Anita, which made Anita uncomfortable.

" An.. Can we talk for a minute." Pinta Hardi

" There's a matter of what to talk about" Anita said in a cold tone.

Hardi was speechless to see Anita's reaction which was very different from Anita who had been his wife.

" I. want to start from the beginning An..give me a chance.." pinta Hardi.

Anita looked at her ex-husband and shook her head.

" I'm sorry ... no more, then let it pass, I can't repeat the time that has passed, others may be ..but I don't,...I hope not to bother me again." said Anita left Hardi filled with regret.

From a distance Anita saw Rohan looking for himself, Anita walked closer to Rohan.

" What's going on here." asked Anita after being next to Rohan.

" I just want to accompany my wife shopping, so I called my mom she said you were shopping .I called earlier your phone wasn't picked up" Rohan said, taking over the basket Anita was carrying.

" I didn't hear it, because it's in the bag" Anita said as she checked for a missed call earlier.

" Is all her essentials complete?" ask Rohan.

" It's been."

" We go to the cashier."

" You're not going to the office..?"ask Anita.

" My business is done,"

Anita just nodded her ass .Rohan turns out to follow her to the shopping place accidentally using a taxi so they go home using the Ratih car that Anita brought.

They did not realize there was a pair of eyes that were staring at their departure with grief.
