After all sitting together in one table in the private room, Ria and Lanny again expressed regret for abandoning Mother Fatma.
" The point we wanted to meet with Mr. Ricky and Anin was because we wanted to bring our Mama. We want to make amends with Mama." Ria conveyed her intention to take care of her parents who had been abandoned.
" You know what? Greed will only cause suffering. You used to live a good life, enough and nothing less. But, you have the heart to deprive Anin and the baby of your own brother. Without any mercy, you cast out Anin who was pregnant at that time." Ricky opens up the memories of Ria and Lanny when they both seem to have no conscience to drive Anindita away.
" Did you never think that you yourself would be treated like that?"
" Mommy, already! Don't bring up the past." Anindita doesn't want Ricky to keep bringing up the past. Because now he sees both of his former brothers-in-law have repented.
" We're sorry, because of our attitude first. We are also aware that the trials that have befallen us today are the effects of our former deeds." Ria again expressed her regret.
" We've forgiven him, ma'am." Anindita quickly denied Ria's apology before her husband spoke at length.
" On taking care of Ms. Fatma, I know you are more entitled than us. But, we don't want you to care for Mom carelessly. Because I already think of Mother Fatma like my own parents." Ricky won't easily give Ria permission and Lanny takes this Fatma away from her place just like that.
" Mom, all decisions are in Mommy. Even though we really hope you stay where we are." Ricky asked Fatma's mother. While Anindita showed anxiety. He felt unwilling to have to part with the former mother mertuanyq.
" Ricky, Anin, Mama know, you've both been very considerate of Mama. Although you were not born from the womb of Mama, but the affection and attention you have given to Mama, it will not be possible for Mama to forget. The presence of the two of you is also Rama and Arka, really makes the heartache of Mama because of the loss of Arya, a little treated." Sobbed feeling haru, Mama Arya said the thing she had been harboring.
Anindita immediately brought her body closer to Mama Arya and rubbed the back of her grandmother from Arka.
" Mommy also feels heavy if you have to separate from you. But, right now there is more obligation to take care of Mama than the two of you. However, Ria and Lanny have that responsibility." From the sentence uttered by Mama Arya implied that the former in-law of Anindita was choosing to come with her two children.
Ricky let out a long sigh while Anindita felt limp hearing Mama Arya's decision. They were equally disappointed, but they had no power to refuse.
While Ria and Lanny immediately breathed a sigh of relief. Because they didn't think that his mother would come back with them.
" Well if that's Mom's decision." Ricky looked at Arya's two sisters. " Even if Mom is with you, that doesn't mean we stop watching Mom We want her to be safe in her needs and health. Therefore, we will continue to hire sisters who have been caring for Mother. And I'll give you back the old house that you sold. I'll stay back in that house. You can also stay there. And for your clothing store. I'm looking for a new place for your greater efforts." As expected by Ricky, he will help Ria and Lanny's efforts to make the economic life of the Aryan brothers more stable.
Lanny and Ria looked at each other with wide eyes. They did not expect that they would be helped by Ricky and Anindita, even though they had been bad to Anindita.
" Thank you, Mr. Rizky, Anin. I'm so ashamed to accept Mr. Ricky's kindness especially Anin." Ria cries haru, followed by Lanny who does not expect if they are still well received by Anindita and Ricky's family.
***
Three months have passed. Mama Arya doesn't live with Ricky's family anymore. Once every two weeks, Anindita visits Mama Arya's house carrying the children, with or without Ricky.
Ria and Lanny had started running a business in her new place wider with products sold more and more in number and more varied.
Today is Ricky's thirty-eighth birthday. Anindita and her children prepared a surprise at exactly twelvepm. Ramadhan himself is eager to give a surprise to his Papa, until asked to be awakened before twelve pm.
" Ssttt, Rama don't be noisy, huh!?" Anindita opens the door of her room with a slack followed by Ramadhan and Tita holding a sleepy Arka.
After Anindita lights a candle that stamps her on her birthday cake, she gives Ramadhan a cue to wake her Papa up.
" Papa's Happy Birthday ... Papa Happy Birthday ..." Anindita is followed by Ramadan and Tita sings a birthday song.
" Geez, you guys aren't asleep yet?" Ricky got up and sat down.
" Inflat it first, Pa!" Ramadhan tells Ricky to quickly blow out the candles on the birthday cake.
" Make a wish too, Pa!" When Ricky was ready to blow out the candle, Ramadan held him back and told him to make a wish in his heart.
Ricky smiled at the request from his son. He closed his eyes for a moment and blew out the thirty-eight candles on the cake.
" Yeeeaahh .. Happy birthday, Papa." Ramadhan hugged his father.
" Thank you, son." said Ricky. He then turned his head towards Arka who was back asleep on Tita's shoulder. " The heroine of this one Papa does not want to give a birthday greeting to Papa, huh?" ricky asks Tita to give him Arka. After this he kissed the cheek of Arka who remained not also awake.
" Yes already, now Rama bobo again. Po keg cake tomorrow again, huh!?" Ricky told Ramadhan to take a break because it was too late.
" Yes, Pa." Not much protest, Ramadan followed what his parents ordered.
" Happy birthday, Mom." After Ramadhan, Tita and Arka left the room, now it is Anindita's turn to say happy birthday to her husband. " Long life, healthy always, lost sustenance and always love the same family." Anindita gives a kiss on the husband's cheek.
" Aamiin Ya Rabbal Alamin." - Ricky.
" A gift for me?" Ricky asks what gift Anindita will give him.
" There, dong, Mas." said Anindita then took something out of his pajama pocket. " This is a gift for Ricky. It's really cool, isn't it?" Anindita smiled at her husband.
Ricky widened his eyes when he saw the pregnancy test that Anindita handed to him.
" Are you pregnant, Anin?" ricky asked as if in disbelief when he saw the device showed a sign two should be red.
" Yes, Mas." Anindita nodded her head.
" Thank you .. Thank you, Allah .. Thank you, Anin." Ricky Langung hugged and showered Anidita's face with a smile.
