Anita is the only daughter of a married couple named Mum Rahmi and Pak Hendra.

They are a small, simple and happy family. Mr. Hendra is a gentle and caring father.

He is also a very caring husband and loves his wife very much.

Their families are very harmonious.

Occasionally Mr. Hendra took his wife and children to the zoo or beach just to unwind.

When returning home from work, Mr. Hendra often brought souvenirs for his daughter, whether it was just a cake, his favorite candy or toys that were not so expensive.

Until Anita was 8 years old, the company where her father worked suffered heavy losses and was forced to reduce many employees.

Anita's father who was 10 years working and the last 3 years served as the head of the warehouse was one of them.

It has a huge impact on their families. Mr. Hendra who just graduated from High School with the age of 32 years is very difficult to find a new job.

Various companies he has gone to none of them want to accept for age reasons.

For High School graduates they only look for fresh graduate applicants, while for ages 30 and above are required to have an undergraduate diploma.

Until that makes pak hendra not meet the qualifications.

After her husband officially became unemployed, Rahmi began selling in front of her house. With borrowed capital from the bank, he made a small grocery store.

Although the small store of bu rahmi is quite crowded, some neighbors come and go to buy groceries and so on.

Seeing the wife became the backbone of the family made Mr. Hendra give up and give up. She felt like she had failed as the head of the family and worse, it made her temperament turn violent.

Every day Mr. Hendra often asked his wife for money which amount is quite a lot for the size of their family.

Though the income of Ms. Rahmi obtained from her shop is only enough for the daily living expenses and school fees of her daughter.

In the morning, Mr. Hendra was just lazing at home.

He often yells at his wife just to tell her to get food, even though in the morning Rahmi has cooked and prepared it at the dinner table.

As a king, Hendra often ruled his wife this and that, and if not according to him would yell and even slap her or hit her.

During the day Hendra always went somewhere without saying goodbye to his wife, then went home late at night banging on the door drunk.

Even so, Rahmi's mother is still patient and still serves her beloved husband well.

Being under the influence of liquor makes Mr. Hendra very rude.

If Rahmi's cooking is not in accordance to her wishes then Mr. Hendra will throw his food just on the floor and then hit Rahmi's mom.

If Mr. Hendra calls and his wife does not come immediately, then he will scold Rahmi and hit her again.

That's how every day the treatment of Mr. Hendra on Ms. Rahmi.

No doubt also his daughter Anita who used to be very dear to him also became an outlet of his anger.

It doesn't feel like three years have passed.

Ms. Rahmi who really hopes her husband can change and come back as good as ever again began to lose hope.

She who always pray for her husband every day in his night prayers, and his patience in facing her husband still can not make Mr. Hendra aware and changed.

It just became more - so, even several times he brought unknown women back to their homes.

It makes Rahmi sad. Complete already suffering, not only suffering in birth but also inwardly.

Anita who often saw the harsh treatment of her father, even she also several times felt the cruelty of her father became increasingly hate her father.

Even every night when she woke up, she always saw her mother crying as much as she could in her room and it made her grieve. Although he was still in the fifth grade of elementary school, but he seemed to be able to feel the sadness and suffering experienced by his mother.

One night, when he caught his mother crying alone in the room Anita also ventured to approach her mother.

He told his mother a remark that made her mother flinch in shock.

He said "Mommy.if mom is not strong enough to live with dad, then go separate ways. Anita doesn't mind.

After all, you deserve to be happy, and Anita will always be with you."

Words rarely spoken by a child of his age.

Ms. Rahmi was crying while hugging her daughter. Ms. Rahmi who has several times had the intention to separate from her husband because she could not stand the behavior of always undo her intentions because of pity on Anita who would lose her father figure.

Her decision was already unanimous when she got the support of her one-on-one daughter, she also expressed her intention to separate from her husband.

Mr. Hendra who was very angry and angry with the intention of the wife to separate became unable to do anything when he received a summons from the religious court office.

It turns out that a week before her mother Rahmi expressed her intentions to her husband, she had first complained to her husband on the grounds of domestic violence and filed divorce papers with the religious court.

After undergoing several convoluted trials, they officially divorced.

Because Mr. Hendra is not willing to support and finance Anita's school on the grounds of not having a job, Rahmi's mother does not mind as long as the house she occupies belongs to her and her daughter Anita and the religious court granted it.

Two days after her, a middle-aged woman who several times had taken Mr. Hendra home came by car and picked up Mr. Hendra. They left without saying goodbye to Rahmi and Anita.

Although in her heart Rahmi was very sad to let go of her husband, because really deep down she still loved her husband very much.

Instantly also the sadness that he threw away - far away, he was determined to open a new page with his beloved daughter.

Although it might be a single parent it would be very difficult for her.

But it'll still be done for Anita.

He will be the father and mother of Anita. From that moment on, their new life began.
