Loving You In Silence

Episode 31

Still at Anita's house..

Behind the house.

“nak Zahra.” call mama Rani.

“iya aunt.”

“what's the same Anita as Hanif dating?” mama Rani asked fearlessly.

“no aunty. They are close as friends. As far as I know like that aunt.. aunt can ask more details to Anita later.hopefully Anita can talk openly with aunt later.” Answer Zahra.

“oh.. But son Hanif looks so good his son. Polite and gentle. Aunt just liked it.” Mama Rani chuckles. And Zahra greeted him with a faint smile.

Mother of the same child turned out to be the same taste. Zahra chuckled in her heart.

Before long, Hanif took Zahra home. They say goodbye to Anita's mother. They each use their own motor. Seeing that, Anita smiled.

It turns out that Hanif is very protective of women's honor.

But when Anita remembered the story told by Hanif that she had been dating for a long time, Anita smiled wryly again. He pulled back his words.

After the departure of Hanif and Zahra, Anita immediately went into her room. His hands are agile to play his phone, look at social media or play games. While his mind was still floating thinking about Hanif's words earlier.

Tok to tok.

“nak, can mama come in?” asked Mama Rani from outside Anita's room.

“login ma”

Chequek.

Mama came in, approached Anita who was sleeping in her bed while playing her phone.

“ada what ma?”

“mama want to ask something can?” mama Rani first asked permission for her son to be comfortable. Then he was nodded by Anita.

“does there be anything between you and son Hanif?” ask mama Rani carefully.

Anita who was still playing her phone instantly looked at her mother surprised by the question. But Anita soon realizes that Hanif is the only man who has ever visited her house. During that time there was never any man even though only a friend who had visited Anita's house.

Anita smiled at her mother.

“we are just friends ma. Mas Hanif helped us a lot about organization and also college. Because we happen to be one major.”

He himself was not sure of himself now. After hearing Hanif's story, there was a sense of disbelief because Hanif had been with another woman. He even had plans to marry her. So Anita did not dare to say anything to her mother.

“ya. Mama just asked, honey. Don't mean anything.” Mom's hand stroked her son's hair gently.

“rest”.

“thank you ma..” Mama Rani smiles at the end of the door, then closes the door of her son's room.

A mother's feelings may never go wrong. Mama Rani feels there is something between Anita and Hanif.

Hanif's eyes looked sad as soon as he saw Anita appear in the living room this afternoon. Mama Anita noticed the details because for the first time the child had a boyfriend who visited her home.

Seven months later.

“everything will be back to how it used to be. I want her to come back to me again.” Kiara said softly, then sent a message to Hanif.

One message came in on Hanif's phone when Hanif had just arrived at his boarding room. From Kiara.

Mas, can we meet?

Hanif: What for?

Kiara: I want to say something. Please please.

Hanif: All right.

Hanif complies with Kiara's request. He also wanted to hear what the ex-lover would talk about. It is possible to give wedding invitations.

They finally met at a cafe. They were silent for quite a while, before Kiara finally spoke..

“mas, I'm sorry for asking to part with you.”

Hanif did not budge. Still wondering what Kiara meant to meet.

“at that time I really-wanted to be alone first, mas. I don't want to misunderstand.” Kiara said.

She thinks I don't know what you're doing behind my back. Your parents even betrayed me. Hanif murmured in the heart. While he himself is still in a relaxed mode does not want to be carried away by emotions. Hanif's hand coolly stirred the drink in front of him.

Hanif intentionally lingered silent. So that Kiara feels uncomfortable with him.
