After Rita's departure

Finally, Rita left Rival's house. While Marta and Nadia could not resist Rita's decision. Before Rita leaves, Rita first tells Rival.

"Rival, I say yes.. I'm sorry if my arrival here makes you uncomfortable. But just so you know.. I'm just here to help you heal from a slump.." Rita. But unfortunately Rival did not want to look at Rita. And Rita also went straight from the presence of Rival.

After Rita left from before him, Rival just looked back. I feel stupid for what Rita said. Rival thought that Rita was not much different from Binar.

"Basic impostors.. I guess you're a lot better than Namira. As it turns out, you're a lot worse and more cunning than Binar." Rival.

...****************...

A week after Rita's departure from Rival's house, the atmosphere in Rival's house was not as usual. Marta felt troubled because there was no longer anyone to help her. In fact, Nadia is also no longer a story companion until she feels bored.

While Rival who was sitting casually on the terrace of his house suddenly pondered for a moment. There's something I'm thinking about. I don't know what he's thinking. Suddenly his heart felt like it was bad. Indeed after the departure of Rita like something strange. There was a strange feeling that appeared in Rival's heart. I don't know what Rival is feeling right now. Ever since Rita left her house, Rival felt that there was less than before. Somehow Rival always sees the shadow of Rita. Rival saw Rita like she was still in her house until Rival finally realized.

"Argh.. What the hell am I thinking? Why do I think I'm a swindler?" Say Rival by himself while patting his head.

Every day Rita always appears in Rival's mind. Every time Rival wants to move, it's like looking at Rita. For some reason since Rita's departure, Rival felt lonely. There was no more commotion, no more bickering between herself and Rita.

"It turns out, it's quiet and there's no Rita. No one wants me to be angry.. Where is he now? Is Rita at her house? Or did he go back abroad? And what is he now?" Think Rival. Rival finally shook his head. Yeah, pat her head. Because that strange thought came again.

"Why else would I think of the impostor? What's wrong with my mind? No, I can't think of him. I can't sympathize with that con man. Once a fraudster remains a fraud.." Rival said, shaking his head.

"Are you sure Rita is a fraud?" Said Nadia who suddenly appeared and stood behind Rival who was sitting on the porch of his house. Rival immediately turned his head and looked up at Nadia. Rival turned his back on his body again. And Nadia immediately sat down also beside Rival. Nadia turned her head towards her sister's face full of question marks.

"Why are you so sure?" Ask Nadia again.

"Yes, rest assured! Because I heard it myself. If it turns out that my mother betrothed me to Rita.." Rival.

"That's who said who? Mama or Rita?" Ask Nadia.

"Yes my own mother.." Rival.

"When you say that, does Rita exist?" Ask Nadia details.

"Yes, there's no such thing.." Rival.

"Then why are you so sure, if Rita is in conspiring with mama.. Like the thing that Binar did first?" Ask Nadia.

"Yes sure that Rita must be a conspicuous mother.. It's just that he's too cunning. If Binar is blatantly.." Rival.

"Why are you defending Rita?" Ask Rival.

"I'm not defending Rita, it's just that I feel that Rita is not wrong.." Nadia.

"Why can you think like that? While with Binar first, you don't like him very much." Ask Rival.

"Binar with Rita is two different people, brother. if Binar, it is clear the person is sneaky. while Rita, he is a good person, Rita was here at my own mother's request. Because since Namira was declared dead, Rival's brother became drastically changed. And I'm sorry, brother Rival is very temprrament. Sister often angry is not clear, brother often berserk.. And looking at Rival's sister like that, mama became very sad sis.. And finally the mother found the figure of Rita. And from there she asked Rita to help her heal her sister.and Rita was willing to help her.." Nadia.

"Cure Me? Rita didn't give me any medicine." Rival.

"Indeed cure it must use medicine yes.Rival is not a sore body. but, inner brother who is sick.. Rita was trying to make her brother recover from the slump.. During this time, Rival became a temperament.Mama was very sad to see such a brother.. Mama no longer knows how to get the sister back to the way she used to be. So she asked Rita to help heal her sister.." Nadia.

"But, mama said yesterday.if mama betrothed me to her.." Rival.

"Yes, it's just my mom's plan, but if Rita doesn't know anything about this... Even Rita yesterday found out the origin of the brother behaving as he is now.." Nadia.

"What if he wants to find out?" Ask Rival curiously.

"Yes, he was looking for a solution so that my sister could recover from her turmoil.. Rita is also kasian to see a mother who is sad with the condition of her sister.." Nadia. Rival became speechless when he heard the story from Nadia.

"You're serious that Rita doesn't know anything about this?" Ask Rival again.

"Since when have I lied to my sister?" Nadia.

Rival was silent again hearing that. Rival believes in Nadia. Because Nadia was always honest with him. Inwardly, Rival felt guilty for accusing Rita. But, He covered up that guilty feeling from Nadia. Because I am ashamed to admit it.

"Yes, let's just say he's gone. He should have left here anyway.. I'm fine, too.." Her speech.

"Don't you hate Rita? Rita's not wrong with sister.." Nadia said.

"He's not wrong with me, but I don't like him." His word. Nadia also breathed a rough breath and reminded her brother.

"Sister. if you hate it don't be too. brother may not like anyone, it's the right of sister. but do not overdo it. later brother fell in love.." Nadia reminded me. Rival was astonished.

"I'm in love with Rita?" He said pointing to himself. Then say again.

"Hahaha.where may I fall in love with him. amit-amit deh. lest I like him." Her speech.
