The Love of Ordinary Men

Behind the strong woman

Yesterday night after taking Ralin home, Raksa met Andini on the road, the woman looked confused at the engine on the front of her car. Looks like Andini's car broke down.

Departure of Raksa's metic motorbike across the street where Andini is. The mercury must turn back first, because their direction is opposite.

"Here" call Raksa, make the owner turn his head.

Andini remembers Raksa. That man helped Ralinka at that time. Can Raksa help her too this time? hope Andini is a little anxious.

"By the car?"

Andini nodded like a puppy that looked so sweet. His eyes look tired.

"Where is it, Din. Honestly, I don't understand the problem of the car engine" Raksa's answer made Andini dongkol, he thought Raksa could help fix his car. In fact the man was honest with so much fun.

"How do I take you home? It's late at night, it's not good this night women are still out. You can call a repair shop person to pick up your car later, the important thing is that you go home first, rest"

Andini thought for a moment, it is true what Raksa said, Andini needs a break. Tomorrow morning he has to meet and there are many other jobs, so Andini must go home and rest.

"Yes, Sa. Earlier thanks, yes" Andini smiled kindly.

Andini's house is quite far from the direction of his house, actually Raksa a little forgotten with the way. Somehow he will come home.

Andini and Ralinka are equally born from a versatile family, luxury has become common to them, even though both are equally not concerned about their social status.

Raksa initially wants to reject Andini's offer, but the woman pulls him in to get inside. One similarity between Andini and Ralin is the nature of its movers. Although Ralin was more annoying.

"I made him drink, Sa" said Andini, not offering, but forcing him to drink.

Raksa gave up, the man chose to say yes. Watching Andini is the same as asking for a debate. After Andini, Raksa circulated his view to pay attention to the interior of the Andini house that looks so comfortable with elegant white shades. Here Raksa feels more relaxed because the reflection of light from the swimming pool several times broke through the divider between the living room with the pool area. The mercury too late to enjoy this soothing atmosphere.

Until the voice of a little boy sounded adorable from back there.

"Mama Nini" called him with a large teddy bear that was dragged along.

The police were a little surprised to hear the call. Andini has a child?, thought Raksa confused.

The little girl watched him wonder, her face was so tiny, Raksa liked it. The man likes a little boy. Mercury approached. The child was crushed with a gentle and loving attitude of Mercury.

"Whose name are you?" tanya Raksa carried her.

"Lilly"

Raksa nodded, Lily kissed the entire face of the man, making Raksa surprised by the adorable cute boy's behavior.

"Lily dear papa" he said while hugging Raksa tightly. Mercury did not mind being treated that way at all by Lily. He is even happy. Raksa is a child-loving man.

Andini who came with two glasses on the tray, furrowed her eyebrows confused, how could Lily be that familiar with Raksa. Even Lily wasn't that pampered when she was with him.

"Lily was afraid of Ma" the girl hugged Raksa's neck tightly as if she didn't want to be left behind.

"Fear what, heumm? There's Tina's mother who looks after Lily" Andini takes Lily from Raksa's lap.

"Mama Ana is leaving" the boy cried.

Andini was shocked to hear that. His sister wants to leave his biological child? Or how?.

Lily is the daughter of her older sister named Ana. Lily is actually a child that her own father does not want. Child out of wedlock. Ana is pregnant with her boyfriend's irresponsible son. The woman had to bear all her own mistakes.

From childhood, Lily lived with Andini, the little girl considered Andini like her own mother. Ana leaves Lily to her because she has to work to support her life and her child. Although not wanted by her father, Lily still wanted her mother. Ana loves Lily so much. As a mother, Ana has done the best for her child.

Andini scolds Ana who comes out of the room with some suitcases in her hand.

"Where are you going, mbak?" ask Andin to worry. Lily who was in her arms looked like she wanted to cry.

"Bak wants to move in with Lily, Ndin" he explained

"Where to? Why should I move?"

"Bak wants to start a new life with Lily, Ndin. Mbak wants to rise, mbak must be a mother and father figure for Lily. Ma'am has been a lot of trouble for you. Thank you for helping me all this time. You deserve to be happy, Ndin. All this time you are always difficult because of mbak. Now that I've worked, you know, mbak is a career woman who can rise without the help of men. So I decided to live like I used to. When you become a strong and strong woman. Ma'am did everything for Lily's sake, please you appreciate the decision mbak, yes, Ndin"

Behind such a strong woman, there was such a fragile heart. There are wounds that are covered with laughter, and there are pains that cannot be told.

Andini cried, all this time, she was a living witness to her sister. In the past, Ana was a strict and independent woman. From her brother, Andini learned. Ana is not a weak woman. It's just that, after loving someone, he became so stupid and careless. Until the embarrassing incident happens, Lily is the victim of all her mistakes in the past. The innocent child must bear all the hatred that people are aiming for.

Andini once cried when she heard the neighbor's insults saying that Lily was an illegitimate child. Although it is true, but why should his nephew bear all this?.

Andini just nodded while handing Lily into the arms of her biological mother.

"If there is time, come here yes mbak, with Lily, Andini will miss the same mbak and Lily" she cried spilled but as soon as possible she removed, afraid Lily saw it and followed crying.

Ana nodded, her eyes reddened. The woman tried hard despite looking fragile. From Ana, Andini's strong and strong character is formed, but on the downside, Andini becomes traumatized by the name of love. She doesn't want to end up like her sister.

The farewell was accompanied by crying in silence. Both of them know their feelings.

"Andini love both Mbak and Lily. Take good care of yourself, ma'am. Andini sure, mbak will be happy" Andini hugged Ana and Lily. Two women that Andini loves so much.

"Look for a man who loves you sincerely, because men are basically respected for their hard work, respected for their responsibilities, and rewarded for their treatment. You don't have to defend a man who doesn't fight for you"

"Remember the message, Ndin. Whatever the case, you still deserve to be happy" he continued, patting Andini on the shoulder.

Afterwards, Ana leaves with Lily to leave Andini with Raksa there. The man was silent in a thousand languages, not knowing what to respond to when Ana's gaze left thousands of questions in Raksa.
