My Secret Romance's

Episode 14

********

Rafa is still trying to digest every word Anin said earlier. Then Mark came to him.

"Sorry sir, it looks like you have to return to Singapore immediately. There is an important problem that you have to solve immediately with Mr. Philips" Mark told Rafa at length.

"Ah that old base ban*ka!! Always looking for trouble. Mr. Philips called me. Immediately prepare a flight this afternoon also we must leave immediately" Rafa ordered to his trusted person.

Rafa returns to Mrs Atmaja's burial place. There are only a few people left in that place. Rafa searches for Anin's whereabouts, but Anin is not there.

"Hmm where's the girl??" rafa said in her heart. Then look at her clock already showing at 1 pm and she should immediately return to Singapore.

On the way Rafa still thinks with Anin. Rafa was worried whether the girl would be okay with Bi Inah. Rafa is also still confused by Anin's talk that says Rafa is a thief.

"Ahhhh .. does he think I will also take over his family hotel? Is that why he said I'm a thief??" rafa said with a confused face.

*

Anin was still sitting without speaking a word. Mia who saw him was also sad. There is no more cheerful face that Anin always shows every time he talks to his best friend.

"Mom, will Anin be okay??" mia asked Bi Inah who was also sad to see Anin's condition.

"Mother also does not know son, we just pray that Non Anin can get through this all. Most importantly we must not leave Non Anin. We should keep him company. You remember, Mr and Mrs Atmaja were very kind to us. This is the time we return their goodwill by keeping non Anin." Bi Inah replied to Mia.

Bi Inah could also see how devastated Anin was over the successive calamities that had befallen her. Plus had to lose his home and some of his parents' property.

"You cleaned your room, didn't you?? Let Non Anin rest tonight in your room. He must be very tired." asked Bi Inah to Mia.

"Already, Mom. Mia cleaned everything up. Let Anin sleep with Mia tonight, because Mia tomorrow will also return to mess again" replied mia smiling. He was happy that his best friend was able to stay in their house. Although on the other hand, Mia also felt sorry for the problems that happened to Anin.

Bi Inah approached Anin who was daritadi just sat in silence without a word. His mind drifted somewhere.

"Non Anin, take a break!! Aunty has prepared a room for Non," said Bi Inah resuscitated Anin from his daydream.

"Yeah Nin, come on!! Tonight until then you will stay in my room" exclaimed Mia with a beaming face.

"Yeeey, I finally have a brother who I'm going to gossip every night. All this time we knew no? I gossiped the same as the prospective grandmother, whose turn I was gossiping. Not to gossip, this is even me being lectured!!" janda Mia cheeky then glanced at Bi Inah and they both laughed.

"Basic Bad boy. Call Mom the grandma-to-be!! Are you sure you will be married to Teguh??" reply Bi Inah do not want to lose.

Aninpun smiled to see the joke between the mother and the child. " bt ... Ma ... try you guys are still here. We can definitely joke around like this," Anin said in her heart, and she cried.

Seeing Anin crying, Mia hugged her best friend. "Nin, we'll always be there for you. From today onwards, we will take care of you. You are not alone. Don't cry anymore, huh?" mia tried to calm her friend. Instead of making Anin calm, there was Mia also crying while hugging her best friend.

Bi Inah who saw the two friends crying, felt filled with the bitter reality that Anin had to face. "Duhhhh .. This is Mom's daughter, are both crying?? Didn't you see mom crying? If you get older, a lot of wrinkles, then no one wants to be the same Mom again how??" canda Bi Inah tried to melt the sad atmosphere in the room.

Anin looked at Bi Inah ...

"Bi .. can Anin call Bi Inah, Ibuu?" tanya Anin then answered Bi Inah with a nod and they embraced.

.......................................

It has been 5 years, now everything has returned to their respective routines. All life has returned to normal, but not with Rafa who is still trying to find the whereabouts of Anin who disappeared without news.

"How's Mark? Do you have any new information?" rafa asked Mark over the phone this morning.

"Ahhh alright!! You just find out where the girl went. Like his Bi Inah hid the girl's whereabouts. Because there's no way he's going without telling me where he's going. Keep an eye on where Bi Inah has gone and find out who she's been calling lately!!" rafa commands with a loud voice and a bit of emotion.

5 Years for Rafa is the toughest 5 years of his life. How not, the trust that Mrs Atmaja pinta 5 years ago is very frustrating because until now she does not know where Anin is. For 5 years also Rafa lived with a regret.

*******

FLASH BACK ON

(5 years ago, exactly a week after the funeral of Mrs Atmaja).

"Ahh tired .." said Rafa then leaned on the sofa. He felt a fair amount of fatigue draining his energy after the long commute he took to meet Cathy in the Maldives.

"Maybe this is the right decision, I finally know who you are" Rafa said, smiling cynically at the event he had just experienced.

**

Rafa's arrival to the Maldives just want to make sure that the information Mark collects about Cathy's behavior so far is correct. And as for what Cathy actually traveled all the way there, she wanted to prove for herself that it was all the truth.

The bitter reality that must be faced by Rafa is true, if all this time Cathy only uses her as a pawn for her successful career in the modeling world. Cathy loves Rafa only because Rafa is rich and Rafa is the sole heir to the Teague family business empire.

They have a malicious intent to take advantage of Rafa. Hendra knows Rafa loves Cathy. So through Cathy, Hendra plans to take over the Hotel which was once owned by the Atmaja Family which is now taken over by Rafa as the biggest investor in the hotel.

But their bad intentions have been smelled for a long time by Rafa. But she has no hard evidence to put the two to shame, especially her fiance Cathy. Rafa's suspicions stem from Cathy's changing behavior and the difficulty of communication between them. There's just a reason Cathy made Rafa find out what her fiance is doing.

Rafa ends his relationship with Cathy, the weight that Rafa feels. Given how much Rafa loves that girl. But what Cathy did this time was fatal.

***

"There's nothing else you have to explain!!" he said in his heart when he saw the many messages coming from Cathy.

"Basar girl don't know herself!! You're too greedy. You think I'll just forgive you!!" rafa then blocked Cathy's number from her phone.

Rafa deletes all of her photos, videos, and all of her moments with Cathy. Not to forget he also deleted all the contents of their conversation messages during this time.

"What'sthis?? Why did I just realize it?" rafa said she could not believe the text message from Mrs Atmaja.

"Whatever happens later, help me take care of Anin.!! I believe you are a good man. Mother please!!" that's the text message Mrs Atmaja.

"Isn't this the exact day Mrs Atmaja died? Ahh ... Why did I just see her?? Is Madame Atmaja aware that something is going to happen to her, that's why she sent me a message like this??" rafa murmured inwardly, not believing what he saw. Rafa has just realized there is an incoming message from Madame Atmaja. During this time Rafa did not open the contents of his text messages because he knew, all the contents of the message were from Cathy. Therefore Rafa always ignores the contents of his text messages.

"This was just a week ago!! Why did I open it now? Ahhh shi*t!! If I knew there was an incoming message from Madame Atmaja, I would make this an excuse to take care of you!!" speak Rafa in your heart with regret.

"Ahhhh!! How stupid of me!! Now where am I supposed to go?" rafa said with a sense of regret.

(FLASH BACK OFF)

........................

Morning ...

"Mother today Mia same mas Teguh can not pick up Rafin, yes. At the hotel, there is an event. Mom please pick him up. School's home at 10:45!!" mia shouted from below as she was in a hurry.

"Mother ... Mia same mas Teguh pamit huh??Breakfast is ready, Mother do not forget to take medicine!!" added Mia again then hurriedly left the house to the hotel where she worked.

An old woman just woke up from her sleep. "Based on a lazy girl, never changed. Do everything in a hurry!!" bi Inah said and then woke up from his sleep.

••••••••

At the hotel where Mia and Teguh work ...

"Is it true that the hotel owner who was rumored to have good looks is coming today?" one employee told another friend.

"It looks like it!! That's why we made a massive welcome. Some say this is his arrival after 5 years of not returning to Indonesia. He was just monitoring everything through his confidant!!" say another one add to it.

"Wahh wahh!! Finally we can see our handsome boss!!," said one of the employees smilingly imagining the handsome face of the boss.

"Idihhh ... Your basic brain mes*m!! Not overshadowed too!" other words chimed in, so that made the employees who were there also laughed.

"Hmmm .. hmmmmm"

A voice broke their jokes. "Good Morning. Mom!!" they said as soon as they saw Mia coming.

"Please make the most of your time! Make sure everything is safe and in control!! I don't want the slightest mistake in the welcome later! and one more thing, it's not good to talk about people early in the morning." said Mia smiled insinuatingly at them, then in reply nods by all the employees who were at the place.

"Death us!! Did Mia's mother hear us?" said one of the male receptionists.

"Perhaps he heard it. It's already!!already!! Now let's just make sure everything is safe and done!! If something goes wrong, we're done!!" said one of the female employees and they all went to continue their duties.

The event went smoothly, safely and in control. There is no mistake. And Mia was satisfied with what she and her employees were doing in Rafa's welcome!!

Yaah ... Rafandra Teague finally returned to Indonesia after 5 years of living in Ausie.
