Rita(The Adventure of the Conglomerate Grandchild)
chapter 62: Reza's Story
“Because Rita is Eka's child, that's why her blood type is the same!” clearly Reza
“What did you say?” Ratna was confused
“We got married a month after Eka died. At that time you said your periods were irregular. We thought because you were stressed and sad.”
“Are you sure Rita son of the late Eka?” tanya Ratna did not believe it
“Rita was born prematurely, her condition was weak like Eka, a congenital heart defect. If I tell you, I'm afraid you're going down. That's why I hid Rita's true circumstances."
“Then, why did he survive until now? Will she be short-lived like Eka?” tanya Ratna was stuck
“I replaced his heart with my son's heart!” obviously Reza again
“You must be crazy, huh? you better stop being a doctor and change professions to be a novel writer!” ratna said she did not believe it.
“You remember Mariska right? She was my wife before you Ratna. We have a daughter we named Maryam. As you know Mariska died in an accident while pregnant with Maryam, although Mariska did not manage to survive, but the baby she contained for 7 months managed to live despite having to be helped by machine.” Reza took a deep breath, looking at Ratna's still confused reaction of disbelief
“Maryam had brain failure because he had not breathed, but his heart was strong like his mother. The doctor who treated him said that even if his life could not be normal. I wanted to save Rita and Maryam, so I decided to transplant Maryam's heart into Rita's body. Truly the power of God, the heart fits in the body of Rita.”
“How about Maryam?”
“I have to take it off with Mariska” Reza said in a soft voice
“So as long as we are married, you are still tied to Mariska?” ask Ratna
“I and Mariska have long been married in series, my duties as a doctor who is still in bondage do not allow me to get married. You and I can get married officially after my bond is over. And it happened a few months after Mariska died”
“Maryam, so that he can survive, you said he supported the machine?” ask Ratna
“I embezzled your papa hospital funds to charge Maryam!”
“Ooo..must be very angry when you know, and force us to divorce! But it happened when Rita was 7 years old!”
“Actually the Mariska family did not accept my act of transplanting Maryam's heart to Rita, they blackmailed me for years, until it was known by your papamu”
“Then?”
“Either what did your papa do that they stopped blackmailing me, but all I knew was 7 years ago I was forced to divorce you. But I can't let go of Rita, she's left of Mariska!”
“What does my papa know about Rita's heart?” ask Ratna
“Yes, he knows that's why he didn't stop me from bringing Rita”
“Really Mas, I am confused what to say!, my feelings are mixed, I am angry, annoyed and also confused!”
“I see, actually I want to tell you about Rita, but I think it's just a massalu, Rita doesn't have to suffer because of this problem!”
“Make you maybe so, but you've darkened Rita's true identity as the descendant of Eka Darmawan, you know that right?”
“Heh, what's so great about the Darmawan family?”
“Eka's family can help Rita achieve her goals, compared to her with you!” Ratna left Eka's room in annoyance
Ratna leaves the hospital where Reza is being treated, and returns home to see her father.
The Sugiyono Family home
“Papa, I want to talk !” said Ratna approached Sugiyono's grandfather who was sitting in his wheelchair.
“Ratna, I've transferred Rita to our Hospital in Singapore, she has arrived this morning! Now in doctor's care there!”
“When did papa do it? Why wasn't I told?”
“Papa must save papa's grandson, if papa follows your ways, Rita will not survive. Although papa looks firmly the same Rita, but papa really loves papa”'s grandson
“Papa know about Rita's heart?”
“Iya papa knows, Reza who tells?”
“Iya!”
“Papa just wants to protect you and Rita!, papa doesn't want you two to get hurt.”
“To have Reza divorce me it has made me hurt pa!”
“Reza doesn't really love you, and his act of embezzling RS funds proves he's a greedy man!”
“But he did it because it was squeezed!”
“Ah!! That's just an excuse, thieves are thieves! It's good I didn't put him in jail!”
“But pa, because of his actions, Rita, papa's grandson can live until now!”
“Because papa let him, you think papa let papa's granddaughter get stuck. Papa had arranged for Reza to work, although he had to be sent to a dangerous area. But papa can't accept him as a son-in-law !”
“What papa offers to the Mariska family?”
“Papa gave some money to them with an agreement, papa also said that if they take Rita's heart, it means they have also killed the remaining Mariska” explained grandfather
“Papa know Mariska?” ask Ratna wonder
“Papa knows everything about you, Reza, Eka and Mariska. You know papa always watches over papa”'s children
“Papa ever meet Mariska?”
“Never before, papa only heard his story from Eka.”
“Eka knows Mariska?”
“Know, you know Eka right? He is similar to Andi. Can't save what's in his heart.”
“Papa is always considered his papa, because papa Darmawan is too busy to listen to his chatter. Since childhood Eka said whatever happened she wanted to marry you and become our family!”
“Yes, I remember, papa loves Eka more than I do!”
“Papa pity him, one time after school he was very lethargic. He regrets introducing you to his best friend.”
“Terus?”
“Eka knows you really like Reza. Eka said, Reza although not rich, but very handsome, athletic, kind, friendly just like anyone. Different from him who is sick.”
“Eka know?” Ratna closed her mouth in shock
“He knows, he says, Pa, it looks like I'm a son-in-law papa will be difficult, amused papa see his face lethargic but funny” Grandpa smiled considering Eka
“Eka loves you so much, she doesn't want to force her feelings, but once she finds out about Reza and Mariska, she immediately proposes to you right? She doesn't want to see you get hurt from seeing Reza with Mariska!”
“Ah Eka, know what she is about feeling ku”ujar Ratna in a soft voice
“You rest, tomorrow we go see Rita!” grandpa's orders
“Iya Pa, thanks for helping Rita!” Ratna left the grandfather's room with teary eyes. His heart ached remembering Eka who loved him so much.
Inside her room, after Isya's prayer, Ratna was fixated on staring at the ceiling of the room, suddenly she remembered the God
“Ah yes!” he got up and called the gods
“Assalammu’alaikum!”
“Wa’alaikumsalam, Aunt!”
“God , sorry aunt very much thought, now where are you?”
“I was at the Singapore Hospital accompanying Rita aunt, yesterday people from her grandfather Rita came with Andi. Turns out she stopped by my house to pick up my passport and clothes.”
“Ooo, Andi is already there! Bratty kids don't tell their mama. Alright God, Auntie titip Rita yes, insya Allah tomorrow aunt and Grandpa will come!”
“Iya aunty, oiya debit card I already love Andi. I'm afraid of missing!”
“Alright, receive many Gods, Wassalammu’alaikum!”
“Wa’alaikummussalam!” The god answered the greeting
Ratna called Andi
“Andi, since when are you there?” ratna asked annoyed
“I stopped by Dad's room, but there's a mom there so I'm not going in!”
“Hmm..you heard the story about Rita?”
“Iya Ma!” andi's voice sounded cheerful
“Kog are you happy?”
“For so long Andi always felt like a stranger between Rita and Reza's father, but now, Andi already has Ma's sister!”
“Ah You! Rita is your sister! “
“Iya, but all this time Andi felt because of different fathers, so like there is a limit ma!”
“Ah you could have, where do you live now?”
“Kakek prepares apartment near RS for us to stay. They have also prepared for mom and Grandpa.”
“Hmm, so yes, there are developments about Rita?”
“The conditions are getting better, even though it has not come out of ICU”
“Rita in ICU?” ratna asked in shock
“Grandfather wants intensive care of Rita, his doctors are special to treat Rita, he said tonight he can get out of ICU.”
“Alhamdulillah, Andi you don't tell me first about Reza yes, mama don't want her to be shocked, you know how unfortunately Rita to her father?”
“Iya ma, Andi know kok!”

“God willing , with grandpa !”
“Btw rich people are different, once he moves, greetings short time all problems so easy!”
“Most?”
“Yes, you didn't know we were confused about finding a donor for Rita?”
“Yahh..actually because it's RS in the area so it's a bit difficult, so grandpa immediately bring Rita here”
“Mean, no responsibility, directly brought to LN, ckckck...”.
“Grandpa is indeed very protective of his children and grandchildren, if possible all the best for them!”
“Yes, that's why I said your grandfather was a great man!”

“ We'll see later, if I shoot now, is not surprised him, anyway strange I talk to his brother!”
“We've been friends for a long time, if we could be better brothers!”
“Lo want to be my brother Ka?” ask the gods wonder
“Emang Lo don't want to be my brother?” ask Andi again
“hmmm..” The gods are silent
“ yahhh he thinks!!!” Andi left the God who was still busy thinking.
