Father To Baron

CHAPTER 13

"We just want to get to you, Ta. Even if you have moved out of town, nothing is impossible. Who knows, Banu could easily figure it out." The words that were thrown from Dendi's lips, made Arita again sigh heavily.

"You know for yourself, what kind of man that is. As time goes on, it becomes more and more apparent that Banu is after you. Not only you are targeted, but your son as well" he added, now leaning his back on the chair.

Retno, who is next to Arita, was trying to provide calm for her co-worker. He knew very well how his concussion felt at this time Arita. Many things must have been thought of by this woman beside him.

"Obviously, we'll keep our mouths shut about your move. And we'll also hide all the information about you two. Focus on your life and the Baron now,"

Hearing this, made Arita nod her head obediently. No one can help her, other than Retno and her husband. That's what makes Arita, following all the advice given by the couple. At least, that was the best for him and also the son.

"I hope the man doesn't look for both of us ..." With a soft-sounding voice, the woman lowered her head.

As if understanding his anxiety, Retno immediately grabbed her slender body in a hug. A warm hug, which he felt like from a sister. No matter, even though the relationship is only limited to coworkers.

"You calm down, Ta. The environment that is now, can definitely make you comfortable. You do not need to be afraid, if one day Banu will reappear. Because maybe, that guy wouldn't have thought if you got here."

There is a point, too, the woman said. Banu is a man who is very work a holic, where he will always number the work unit. Unlike Bayu, which is quite the opposite.

"Don't worry, you can contact us if there is any problem. Do not hesitate to talk about it to us," said Dendi who was carried steady by the wife. The two did agree, to help Arita regardless of the crazy man's entanglement.

His lips suddenly turned upside down, seeing the support given by the couple for him. His eyes glazed over, with hands that were increasingly holding tightly to Mbak Retno's fingers.

"Arita is really grateful, for the help of Mas and Mbak. Arita can't imagine, what would happen if this all happened without the two of you. Maybe-"

"Now, it's time for you to rest. It goes on tomorrow morning, Ta. Most importantly, you two are safe."

Being aware of the clock that has shown at three in the morning, makes Retno and her husband intend to return. After helping Arita finish the furniture, the two decide to return to their hometown.

"It's not papa, are we staying?" ask Dendi again to make sure.

"No papa Mas, Ma'am. Arita can handle everything" replied the woman steadily. He has been greatly helped, with the help provided by both. And now, he had to be willing to live far away from the woman he had considered the older brother.

"You take good care of yourself, Ta. Mbak must have sent messages often," said Retno by commenting on her soft smile. After briefly hugging the slender body, the woman immediately walked towards the door following the husband.

Due to the dependents of work, they both have to return to their homes. Plus, her three children also had to go to school the next day. If not, Retno will stay and accompany Arita even longer.

"You guys be careful on the road, huh? Thank you very much for your help" Arita said sincerely.

After getting a nod of the head from the two of them, the woman drove Retno and Dendi to her yard. Until the two get into the car, Arita still stands with a view that continues to lead to the two of them.

"We're saying goodbye, Ta ..." Retno waved her hand, which was followed by the sound of a car horn. Suddenly, a sweet smile and a nod of the head he gave in response. The woman's hand was still swinging, until the vehicle disappeared in the corner of the road.

"One day, I'll repay you both ..."
