Love Anya For X

"My mom wasn't the culprit!" (2)

His face was shocked and panicked. Tears soon pooled in the middle-aged woman's eyes.

A luxurious diamond ring clearly fell from her jacket pocket and rolled towards Theresa's feet.

"My ring!" pekik Theresa took the ring from the floor.

Ms. Rastini was convinced that her jacket pocket was empty from the beginning. There's nothing there, even if it's just a piece of paper. During this time he did have a habit of carrying a small bag everywhere, because he was not used to pocket something in his jacket pocket. Why is it that suddenly there is this thing?

"Bu–" Kinanti shut her mouth. Can't believe what he just saw. A shocked roar also flashed across the faces of Anya and Axton.

"Sa-I didn't do it. I–ini must have been a misunderstanding!" Ms. Rastini fell down while cupping her hands in her chest. Anya immediately hugged her mother tightly. The girl tried to calm Ms. Rastini who already looked trembling in fear.

"But clearly this ring fell from Mbak's shirt," Theresa instead made clear the situation, her eyes squeakingly looking at Bu Rastini, as if she was cornering the iron.

"Ma," Maxim reprimanded his wife. The man tried to cool off, "I'm sure Miss Rastini wouldn't do that."

"I didn't do it, sir!" peekik Bu Rastini frustrated. He's not a thief!

"It is better to admit, Ma'am, however we are now a family, it does not feel like I am taking this to the legal path. I will forgive Ma'am, if Mbak wants to confess," hearing Theresa's words, Ms. Rastini cried so badly. Shame rolled around enveloping him.

Her mind roared, not only because of Theresa's words, but because she had embarrassed Anya before her husband's family.

"I, my a– did not do it," The old eye turned to the children and his daughter-in-law. "Mom didn't do it. You believe in Mom?" asked the woman on her sobs.

"Yes, Mom." Anya answered Miss Rastini's question firmly, followed by Kinanti. Smentara Axton refused to open her voice at all.

"There must be a misunderstanding here, Ma," Anya tried to defend her mother.

"What misunderstanding is it? Obviously this ring fell out of your mom's jakey pocket. You remember, the only person who went into Mama's room, it was just your mom." Theresa's answer further cornered Miss Rastini. Anya could feel the contemptuous gazes from the maids and some security aimed at the mother.

"I'm poor, but I still have my pride!" the woman wiped away her tears that were unwilling to stop flowing. "I wouldn't do such a despicable thing, anything else to embarrass my son in front of his husband's family."

Unable to see the situation besan and his son-in-law, Maxim immediately ordered one of the security to check the CCTV in the second floor hallway to his room.

"I'm sorry, sir, the CCTV's been broken this morning and it just worked half an hour ago." Answer one of the high-bodied security.

Theresa grieves. "Papa this how, even if CCTV works, certainly will not be able to capture the image. Every room and toilet ain't got no CCTV installed, Pa."

Miss Rastini is sobbing in Anya's arms.

"Ma, Pa, I know my mother very well, and I'm pretty sure she's not the culprit" Anya said with a confident face. His eyes then turned to look at Axton who immediately threw away his face,

"Ka,"

Axton didn't take Anya's call. He was actually confused about this incident as well. On the one hand he believed that Rastini was not such a person, but on the other hand he could not argue, because with his own eyes, his mother's belongings fell out of Miss Rastini's jacket pocket.

Kinanti joined Anya and Miss Rastin. His eyes stared intently at the Axton family one by one. "If you don't believe and want to punish, please punish me, not my mother."

"Nan," said Miss Rastini, "don't interfere."

Kinanti did not mind her mother's ban. The girl sat down to face them. Let his pride fall, as long as his mother can be free from this problem.

Theresa crouched down in front of Miss Rastini and clasped her hands. "That's it, the important thing is that this ring has come back to me."

"Although Mbak did not want to confess, but I have forgiven Mbak. I'll forget this incident. Now, let's get up" Theresa led Ms. Rastini to get up from the floor, also telling Anya and Kinanti to participate.

Miss Rastini is speechless. He felt free to argue, because there were many dozens of pairs of eyes that saw clearly where the ring came from.

They were allowed to go home a few moments later.

During her time in the car, Miss Rastini unceasingly apologized to Anya for humiliating her in front of the Axton family.

"Mom's not wrong, Mom. Mom's not the culprit,"

"I'm sorry Mom, son," again, only those words came through Miss Rastini's lips.

Anya looked at Axton who was focusing on driving. His chest throbbed a little, considering that not a single word had come out of the man since returning to his parents' house. Axton did not defend them.

Anya feels stupid. Where could Axton possibly defend them? What could he expect from that cruel man?

...***...

"Ma, should you say, that you're going to bring this trifle down the path of the law?" maxim asked Theresa who was sitting at their dressing table. "Again, Papa was sure that Miss Rastini would not do that. You know, he was Sigit's confidant and Chief Servant in their old house."

Theresa looked at Maxim with a look of annoyance. Maybe the husband even defended his iron.

"That was it, Pa, first! Now that he had returned to a difficult life, what else he also had to take care of his master's son who did not bring any treasures. It is only fitting that his soul is instantly stirred, considering that he is now a conglomerate!" said ketus.

Maxim who heard the insulting sentence from the wife's mouth without a second thought immediately snapped it.

"Why are you angry, anyway? How to be a guilty mom here!" asked Theresa with an elevated tone of voice.

After his wife died, Maxim could only sigh. Tomorrow he will go to meet Anya and her mother to apologize for the wife's attitude.

***

Throughout the night Anya and Kinanti were awake, because several times their mother deliriously said sorry words. This incident really shook his soul. The mother even refused to sleep in Axton's large room and preferred to sleep on the television room carpet. The woman felt she didn't deserve to be there.

Seeing his mother's miserable condition, Kinanti decided to return to their home in the village the next day. They didn't want to run away, Kinanti just felt coming home was the right choice.

"Mbak has booked a plane ticket. A few more days, huh?"

Although Axton never thought it existed, but he routinely sent money to Anya through Delia. Axton did it not without reason. The father was the main factor why, he did so.

"Yes, Mommy." Answer Kinanti.

Anya, Kinanti and Bu Rastini leave for the airport with Joseph, Axton's personal driver. Axton couldn't leave the shoot.

Anya stroked the arm of Miss Rastini who now looked calmer. His heart was sliced to see that old eye was swollen from crying too much.

"It's healthy there, Mom, yes" Anya said, hugging her tightly.

"I'm sorry, son? Apologize to Nak Axton, too" said Ms. Rastini in a raucous voice.

"There's nothing to forgive, ma'am. I told you, this is all a misunderstanding. I'll be seeing Papa and Mama right back from here."

Miss Rastini turned to the car window. Anya understood that her mother did not want to hear the words of comfort from her.

"Son," call Miss Rastini.

"Yes, Mom."

The woman's hand gently grasped Anya's hand and patted her several times. "Be a good and obedient wife, huh? Don't waste the love your husband and your husband's family give you." Miss Rastini's advice was sudden.

"Yes, Mom." Anya answered. Although astonished by her mother's sudden words, Anya chose not to ask.

"You still have the same feeling, don't you?"

Being asked such a thing, made Anya's chest pound. She did not expect her mother would question such a sensitive matter.

"What's the matter, Mom?" ask Anya back. "Feelings then and now are certainly different, ma'am. It was just the love of a child." Disclaimer

Miss Rastini smiled back. "If that were the case, you would have already rejected her family's proposal, Nduk. You wouldn't have made such a big decision five years ago. So I'm pretty sure your feelings from long ago, yesterday, today even for the time to come will remain the same."

Anya swallowed her saliva, she was speechless.

"Justify Mother?" ask Miss Rastini reassuringly.

"Mom why are you suddenly talking about this?" ask Anya without intending to answer the mother's question.

"Mom just wants to see you happy. Married without any return. I need to hear it from your own mouth, so that your heart may be at ease."

Anya bit her lips. His chest rumbled just by discussing Axton.

During this time he may feel, his efforts to carry out obligations as a wife only because of the advice of the mother. But it can not be denied, the more the day his heart is increasingly attached to Axton. Anya realized, the more Axton hurt her, as much as her love for the man. Somehow it could happen, for sure he was aware of his stupidity.

"Yes, Mom, I love her so much, man,"

Hearing Anya's reply made Bu Rastini look at the girl's relief.

"Your husband must have a taste as great as you, Nduk," said Ms. Rastini sure. He hoped that blessing would come to their households.

Anya could only reply to her words with a hug.

"I'm sorry if my household doesn't match your expectations, ma'am." Her mind is sad.

...***...

"Remember your condition, you can't be too tired, can you?" Miss Rastini took off her hug on Anya.

"Mother also don't get sick. Don't think of anything, do you, Mom?" Miss Rastini nodded with a smile. He looked at Kinanti. "Mom, huh, Nan? Greetings to the Jagat as well,"

"Yes, Mommy." Kinanti kissed his hands and hugged Anya.

"Your attention please, passengers of G*****Indonesia on flight number GA308 to S******please boarding from door A13, Thank you."

"We go first, Ma'am,"

"Be careful," Kinanti nodded and immediately took the mother away. Anya watched the two until they disappeared from her sight. I don't know why he felt so bad this time. There was a feeling of fear lingering in Anya's heart.

"There won't be anything, I'll be fine."
