Child Genius - Beyond Recollection
CHAPTER 18 ~ Meet ~

Ozora introduces herself and greets Raffa. Raffa welcomed the handshake of the handsome little boy. Raffa crouched down to align their height. Raffa looked at the handsome face that was smiling so sweetly.

Those eyes, those gazes, why do I seem to know her ? feel close to him ? inner Raffa.

Raffa was stunned until he did not realize, Tita who had called him even to shake his body. Raffa immediately regained his senses and smiled.

"It turns out the original is much more handsome" said Raffa pat Ozora on the cheek.

The praised boy immediately thanked him. Ozora looked straight into Raffa's eyes.

Raffa comes to the bookstore because Tita, his daughter, persuaded him. Since Tita's classmates had become acquainted with Ozora, they were busy talking about the bright boy. Only Tita does not know anything, therefore Tita insists on taking her father to the bookstore that has been famous.

Ozora can always provide direction for the talents and interests of children who come to the store. Only by talking to him can Ozora immediately guess his favorite and talent.

It makes Ozora liked by the children who come there. The bookstore that has grown so rapidly that provides all the needs in the field of education and science.

Ozora even often provides practice in the field of science that uses props or laboratory tools. Ozora who can immediately understand what is needed by customers will immediately give suggestions.

"Tita went to see Ozora and dad" Tita told her father.

"Yes well, please take good care of your daughter" Raffa told Ozora.

"Well, Raffa" Ozora replied.

Ozora's hand was instantly pulled by Tita, Raffa staring at the boy who stepped away from it. As if Raffa was still looking at him, Ozora turned and smiled as if to reveal that he would be back soon.

Raffa was stunned until he was unaware that someone was holding his hand. Raffa turned his head then immediately let go of his grasp and withdrew his hand. Jessica scrunched her mouth.

"Was that famous boy ?" jessica asked stale.

Raffa was silent, watching the items on display, looking at interesting things and walking around without caring about Jessica, his wife could only follow him from behind.

"This is boring, nothing interesting" Jessica said.

"Nobody brought you here" Raffa said as he watched the box containing the pen in the display case.

"I'm a good mother, so I have to accompany her wherever she wants to go" Jessica replied confidently.

"Yes... The good mother almost killed her own baby" said Raffa Sakartis.

"Why always bring up the incident ?" jessica was upset.

"Because there are still some who have not been kapok" Raffa said as he snapped a finger at the shop waiter.

Pointing at the pen tucked in a light brown wooden box. The waiter handed the box with the pen, Raffa observed and nodded, the waiter made a note, wrote the brand, and handed the three and a half million note to Raffa.

Raffa continued his activities to look around the goods available in the store. Jessica followed with a sharp eye.

Still remembering the incident at midnight, for the first time Raffa entered his room. The woman who was still dizzy from the influence of alcohol smiled when she saw her husband uncovering the blanket covering his body.

But what Raffa did, instead of returning his wife's smile, the man dragged Jessica out of the room. It is interesting to walk up to the terrace. Jessica thinks Raffa will kick her out, the woman rebels break away from Raffa's hand.

But Raffa, clasping her hand tightly, forced her to walk towards the porch and slammed Jessica to the floor. The woman who began to realize from her drunkenness was staring at Ny. Rowenna was waiting for her car while holding a baby.

"Where are you going ? Where are you going ?" jessica asked who was starting to wake up from her drunkenness.

Then standing up asking Raffa, the man stared with a red face.

"You want to kill your son do it out there not in this house" Raffa said with a sharp eye.

The car arrives in front of the terrace, the driver opens the door, ma'am. Rowenna came in as well as Mr. Robbie. Jessica got into the car sitting in the passenger seat next to the driver. As the car drove by, Jessica stared at the still baby in her sling. Rowenna's.

Her tears flowed, the woman asked her mother-in-law but the half-century woman simply turned her face away. Arriving at the hospital, the baby was immediately treated by paramedics who had been waiting.

The paediatrician who is now a member of the family immediately examined the condition of Jessica's baby.

By dawn the baby was finally moved to the hospital room, marked his condition had begun to stabilize.

Doctors explain if the fever is accompanied by dehydration or lack of body fluids can be very dangerous for the safety of children.

Jessica was stunned, when she saw her baby just silently did not want to breastfeed thinking that the baby was comfortable in his sleep. Go see his friends who have gathered waiting at the discotheque and drunk with them.

The doctor explained the symptoms that arise from the baby such as vomiting, dry lips, not wanting to suckle, and crying without tears it is a condition of the baby who has a fever accompanied by dehydration.

Mrs. Rowenna looked at Jessica with a sharp look. In that house, the only person who doesn't care about the baby is his own biological mother. Since the baby was born. Rowenna has always been strict in maintaining the health of the baby, because it always considers premature babies are weak and susceptible to disease.

Mrs. Rowenna finally decides to take custody of the child, and evicts Jessica from her home. Jessica pleaded for a chance to correct her mistake.

Jessica doesn't want to split from Raffa because her reputation as Raffa's wife is very important to her. Jessica also did not want to lose the facilities she got as the family's only daughter-in-law.

His lifestyle is too luxurious makes him not want to give up the status as Raffa's wife. Although the man did not consider her a wife at all, and had to seek satisfaction from other men, Jessica did not care.

Raffa who has lost her love for Jessica since meeting Celina. No matter how close Jessica is to her manager. Even since they married, Jessica was allowed to continue her relationship with the man who had impregnated her.

Raffa did not care, the man had lost half his soul from losing the only girl who had touched his heart. Allowing his wife's behavior for that long doesn't stop him from finding Celina.

Mrs. Rowenna threatens to destroy Celina and the orphanage where the girl grew up. No longer being too harsh, no longer threatening because Raffa had been willing to marry Jessica.

But now the notoriously hard-hearted mistress had already lost her temper. When he found out that his only grandson was threatened with his safety, because of the negligence of his son-in-law who had a penchant for fun, fun and drunkenness.

Favorites that were supported by Mrs. Rowenna because according to him, only people who are able to make fun and have fun, now gets the impact of her support for Jessica's lifestyle.

"Recome, we will take care of Tita, in our hands, the child will grow well" said Ny. Rowenna looked at Jessica who was looking at the six-month-old baby girl.

Raffa who was sitting down on the sofa while crossing her arms across her chest was directly staring at Jessica. The words he had been waiting for had appeared, only the woman's approval remained.

Mrs. Rowenna had opened her mouth, if the female commissioner had made a decision then no one would have been able to change her.

Jessica flinched

"NO.. !!! I am not willing, because I decided to choose Raffa, I have to release Kevin, you have to be responsible for me for the rest of my life" Jessica said, pointing to Raffa.

"If you regret taking it off why not look for it ?" ask Raffa.

"Because I'm everything to you, those are words I can remember coming out of your mouth" Jessica said.

"If you don't cheat, of course it can happen" Raffa said with a sharp look.

"WHAT ? CHEATING ? ENOUGH. I can't tolerate your behavior anymore, our lawyer will see you soon, you have to sign the divorce papers" she shouted. Rowenna's.

Mrs. Rowenna walked back and forth upset, the half-century-plus woman already felt something was wrong with her son's marriage.

Raffa's refusal to marry Jessica. Sleeping in separate rooms that they still live in for a year. That's enough to convince Ms. Rowenna to decide, let them divorce.

"DON'T... I DON'T WANT TO" cried Jessica who was not willing to let Raffa live happily with other women.

Jessica acted recklessly, taking the baby away. Raffa who doesn't care about Jessica carrying her baby just sits quietly looking.

"Pursue, let's go after him quickly" said Mrs. Rowenna panic.

"Didn't mommy want him to go, let him go" said Raffa relaxed and stood up to leave the hospital.

"But he brought Tita, my granddaughter" cried Mrs. Rowenna was annoyed at Raffa's uncaring attitude.

"Tita it's not..."

"Sir please come with us... Madame Jessica was on the rooftop, threatening to jump in with her baby" said a male nurse with a gasp of breath.

"WHAT ?" Ny jerit. Rowenna's.

"So I asked the baby because the lady was crying. Because I didn't answer so I followed, it turns out that the lady wanted to go to the rooftop when I asked her she said she didn't want to be divorced by her husband Raffa Saltano so I went straight to see Mr Raffa" the nurse told me while looking at the number of the lit floor lamp.

"Hopefully it's still a rush, hopefully it hasn't jumped" the nurse said.

"What the hell are you, what kind of talk is that" cried Mrs. Rowenna panicked and riled.

Raffa looked at the nurse who was startled at Ny. Rowenna's.

"Thank you for letting us know" Raffa said sincerely to the nurse.

The nurse again looked calm, but did not dare to say any more words. The elevator opened and ran to where it was headed. Jessica was holding her baby standing on the edge of the rooftop crying.

Raffa asked Jessica to stay away from him.

"You think I want to live like this ? having a marriage like this ? I.. I. I know, I'm the one who always chooses wrong, always makes the wrong decision. I don't even know what I really want" he said still crying.

Jessica's body trembled, the girl who was pampered by the Cartwright family was actually afraid of heights. Only his strength made him stand there.

"Nobody cares about me, I just live to live the order.When I realize what I want has gone, I feel empty. Just living what I thought could wipe those regrets out of my head" Jessica explained.

"What are you talking about, Jessica ?" shouted Mrs. Rowenna's.

"I think I know" Raffa said, then laughed.

"Nobody forced you to vote for me" Raffa said.

"My family wants you, my family chose you because you're too smart to take their heart" Jessica shouted back.

"Now that everything is done, I will not divorce you. I want you to live in prison as much as I do, Miss. Rowenna can only separate me from her son if I die. ha.ha.ha.." said Jessica laughing loudly.

"This kid is crazy" said Mrs. Rowenna's.

"Cancel your decision, ma'am. Rowenna or the news will broadcast the daughter-in-law and granddaughter of the Saltano family killed themselves.ha.ha.." cried Jessica.

Mrs. Rowenna panicked, seeing her daughter-in-law acting recklessly like that, the girl looked like a madman laughing to herself, crying then laughing to herself.

"Well, I'll overturn my decision. Provided you also promise to take good care of your child" said Ms. Rowenna.

"Remember, madam, I will do this every time the madam wants to get me off your family list" she said, laughing.

Jessica came down from the edge of the rooftop, greeted by a nurse who immediately injected drugs as a sedative, in anticipation of the situation, seeing the woman who continued to laugh.

Ozora and Tita have been beside Raffa, the man is shocked because Tita asked permission to buy something.

"By honey, take whatever you want" Raffa replied to Tita.

The man felt a little strange, usually Tita would take anything without her permission. Raffa thinks it was Ozora who taught Tita to ask permission first before taking the items she wanted.

"Ozora if you want something just take it, just put it in the bill om" Raffa told Ozora.

"Thank you, but don't" Ozora replied.

The children went back to see the things Tita wanted.

"Don't he be the son of the owner of this shop, why should he offer it ?" ask Jessica.

"He is just the son of this store employee" Raffa replied briefly.

"Ow.. son of a shop employee ? then why is it so clever" asked Jessica.

"Because he likes to read"

"What's so good about reading ?"

"Then what a pleasure to shop" replied Raffa reply Jessica.

"Shopping is fun" Jessica replied

Raffa was not eager to reply to Jessica's words, Raffa looked up, seen Ozora and Tita who were climbing the stairs to the third floor.

Tita held Ozora's hand up the stairs with a laugh. Tita stands near a shelf containing books, following Ozora who looks at a woman. The woman was talking about a book she was holding.

After the person who talked to him left, Ozora came to him, smiling at Ozora.

"Mama introduce this Tita, Tita this is mama Ozora" said Ozora introduced Tita.

"Hello Tita, nice to meet you, you're so beautiful, who came here with ?" celina asked as she extended her hand.

"Thank you aunt, aunt is also beautiful, Tita came here with mommy and daddy" he said while welcoming Celina's hand.

"Do you like this shop ? did Tita get what Tita wanted ?" ask Celina again.

"Yes aunty, here the goods are good" replied Tita.

"Is there anything Tita wants to find ?" ask Celina.

"Yes aunty, if that's what we go first" said Tita.

"Alright, nice to meet Tita" said Celina stroking the little girl's hair gently.

Tita and Ozora go back around looking for what Tita wants. Celina's gaze accompanied the child's second step, her smile could not be separated looking at the beautiful and handsome children. Until his eyes were fixed on a familiar figure.

Celina looked up at a man who was walking leisurely while putting his hand in his pants pocket. Celina hid behind the wall. His chest was pounding, very clearly visible from this top floor, Raffa who was walking downstairs there.

Five years no see it, now, why is it here ? whispered heart Celina.

Celina looked at the man from behind the bookcase, looking at the man with a welcoming smile. A little girl slammed into his arms. It was followed by Ozora who brought the little girl's shopping cart.

Celina smothered her mouth with both hands.

Tita is their daughter, Tita is the daughter of master Raffa and Jessica, screams Celina's heart.

Her chest was tight, seeing the man holding his daughter, while Ozora walked beside him. Ozora escorted them to the cashier, before long they left.

Celina's in the closet.

How long will this end ?

Until when I should be tied to the past.

I want this to end, I don't want to be afraid to see him again.

He has forgotten me, he is happy with his family.

I must think of my happiness, the happiness of my son, the cry of Celina.

Celina came down from the third floor looking for her beloved son then hugged the boy tightly.

"We're going home now ? " ask Celina who was replied to a nod by Ozora.

Celina's work shift has run out, Celina invites Ozora to say goodbye to the store employees by waving her hands. Entering the parking area, Ozora opens the car door for her mother.

They drove out of the store parking area to go home. Ozora looked at Mr. Raffa who had just arranged the groceries in the trunk of his car. Waving his hands as the man looked at him. Raffa returned Ozora's hand.
