Don't Take My Love

Chapter 23

"Ma, there's something Anita wants to ask her" said Anita, but can still be heard by her stepmother who is beside her.

Because now mother Cintya has stepped foot into the house through the main door of the house that has been opened by one of the servants in the big house. And they set foot in and headed to the living room.

"What do you want to ask Anita?" asked Mama Cintya who looked at Anita with curiosity and stopped her steps.

"Mama said that Anita was sinned to be a mama's child, all of Anita's needs will be fulfilled. As long as Anita does not leave the house of mama." Anita replies repeating the words from where her stepdad.

"Yes right Anita dear." said stepmom Anita who confirmed Anita's speech.

"If Anita can tell, why did you do that to Anita? Anita's just Mama's stepdaughter?" asked Anita who continued her steps because mother Cintya also stepped foot, and now they were in the living room in the luxury house.

"That's because.." said Mama Cintya who was silent for a moment to rework the speech she would convey to her stepson.

''Because of what ma?" ask Anita who is getting curious. And then they sat on the living room couch.

"Mama's been feeling guilty about your mama, and she knows that you married your mom because you had to. That's because of your brother's medical expenses. Actually, you do not have to worry about your father leaving, but this is all because Raindra between us and also mama loves your father very much. Mama is very worried if papa returns to your mother and leaves your mother, and if there are you who are always with mama, of course you will not go home or turn to look for other women. Is mama wrong too over the same papa you Anita?" clearly at once asked Mama Cintya who was staring at Anita.

"Mama, mama to that extent. Who should have such thoughts as that. If you are not reminded of the reason why you married your mother again, maybe Anita is not currently the same mother. Anita knows the feelings of the mother who is always covered, the mother spills them at night prayers. And Anita had heard the complaints of the mother, Anita did not have the heart with what befell the mother at that time. As if all the mothers overflow and mother does not want to show her tears in front of everyone." said Anita who also looked at the face of her stepmother.

"Anita, your mother is a great woman! he was willing to sacrifice his love for his daughter, as was your father. Although already with mama, but papa you always think of you and your mother in the village" said Mama Cintya who then sighed.

"Yes Ma, and Anita also experienced the same thing as Mother. Even this is Anita's own brother who did it." said Anita who suddenly recalled her feelings that she wanted to suppress.

"A..Anita darling, I'm sorry mom. Not that my mom reminds you of what happened to you. Mama really asked for ma'af dear." said mother Cintya who was not feeling well and immediately she hugged Anita tightly, Anita was resigned to her stepmother's arms.

There was a sound from Anita's mouth, and her tears welled up. Until Anita repeatedly wiped her tears.

"Crying is Anita, hopefully by crying can relieve the pain in your heart." whispered mother Cintya who felt sorry for her stepdaughter.

"Tokk..tokk...misc....!"

Suddenly there was the sound of the main door being knocked by someone.

"Let me open the door madam!" exclaimed aunt Ti who came out of the kitchen with half a step running towards the main door of the house.

While Mama Cintya and Anita were letting go of their embrace, the fingers of Mama Cintya wiped away Anita's tears.

"You strong girl, will definitely meet your soul mate!" whispered mom Cintya.

"Yes ma, hopefully." said Anita lirih.

Meanwhile, Aunt Ti who opened the door and saw a middle-aged man who was none other than Mr. Suroso, papa Anita

"Assalamu'alaikum...!" say hello to Mr. Suroso who looks tired, because after work.

"Sir, sir, have you returned to work out of town?" continue to ask aunt Ti when asking to bring the bag carried by her employer.

"Yes, back tomorrow! Oya is madam there?" ask Mr. Suroso who spread his views.

"We're here pa!" exclaimed mother Cintya who then stood up from her seat and looked at her husband.

Similarly, Anita also stood up and looked at her papa. They set foot to welcome their father and husband.

"What are you doing right now?'' ask Mr. Suroso by reviewing his smile as if feeling tired and achy because of work, just gone. Seeing his wife and daughter welcome him together in the living room.

"Lord...!" call Anita and Mama Cintya at the same time.

Mr. Suroso then extended his hand, and Mama Cintya and Anita alternately kissed the back of Mr. Suroso's right hand.

"Papa, he said he was going out of town?" asked Mama Cintya after she finished kissing the back of her husband's hand.

"Tomorrow morning ma, but papa wants if mama comes with papa." said Mr. Suroso slowly while staring at his second wife.

"I have to go with Pa? what about Anita?" mama Cintya asked as she looked at Anita.

"This out-of-town job took a long time, because papa is going to open some new branch offices and everything needs adjustment. That's why papa needs mama, Anita's problem to be with Aunt Ti for a while. You want Anita?" obviously at once asked Mr. Suroso who then looked at his daughter.

"Mama don't worry, Anita's okay at home with Aunt Ti. After all, Mang Ujang remains at home, right Pa?" asked Anita who was trying to calm her stepmom.

"Yes, of course Mang Ujang at home. Papa can't bear it if only you and Aunt Ti are at home." replied Mr. Suroso as he gently stroked his daughter's head.

This is what Anita cannot feel while still in the village.

"Oh, is this how it feels to be caressed by a father? so warm and comfortable, mas Dimas ..! uh why do I even remember the husband of his twin brother!" murmured in Anita's heart whose heart was not lost.

"Then my mother calmed down a little" said Mama Cintya who looked at Anita and commented on her smile, as she saw Anita so enjoying her husband's handcuffs on Anita's head gently.
