The Temptation of the Desire of the Stepchild
CHAPTER 28: JONATHAN PRADIPTA (KEY)

Nita's heart fell to the earth. Mentally, she was crying. It may not be Rama's necklace. Or even though it may be a necklace of Rama, but the baj1ngan is not Rama. Not Rama. Rama is not like that. However, if it is Rama ….. Nita shook her head, she was very sure not Rama. “Can I borrow your necklace?”

Rama smiled at himself and reflexively removed the necklace from his neck.

Paired the necklace to Nita's neck until Nita looked at her very sharply, where the woman's lips twisted each other and continued to twitch as if she was spreading a poisonous aura.

“Musa, sweetheart …. “ Rama kisses the cheek of the child, as Moses devises. Even Rama's cheek was exposed to a wet little hand because Moses had time to mengu*lum tiny fingers.

Nita pecked, the face of Moses and the face of Rama, side by side like a betel divided in two.The woman shook her head, not believing in her evil thoughts. No way, just a similar coincidence!

“Ah, I accompany Papah to eat first,” Rama's voice turns gentle. The index finger scratched over the mouth and began to climb down the stairs quickly. Leaving behind the pensive Nita and the fun-loving Moses a wolf pendulum toy. Even the little baby bit the necklace, so Nita had to pull the necklace and quickly go back to the room.

Sergey had finished off one plate of rice and a barrel of rendang when his son returned. Suddenly the son seemed so excited as he took a meal and ate it with great gusto. What was?

“Fuck! What if I like someone, anyone, Papah will agree and support me?” rama asked expectantly to his papa who was wiping his mouth with a napkin, then drank clear water up to half a glass, and his papa smiled defiantly.

“Ah, you finally want to open with Papah.” His head was swinging forward. “Who is he?”

“Promise first, Papah will bless me?”

Sergey laughed amusedly at the timid face of the son. “Is she prettier than Papah's wife?”

Rama's smile instantly faded, his eyes heated up, his chest shaking. He forgot his papa relationship, papa's proud smile on Nita. He did not understand, what because his papa was so good at acting because of a veteran actor, until he could not believe that papa's smile now really looks sincere. “Papa, what did Papa see from Stepmother?”

“Come on, Pah, say unreasonable reasons, lest I be overwhelmed with guilt,” Inner Rama expectantly.

“You want to know?” Sergey laughed lightly, he became embarrassed. Whether her son would ever agree to her relationship with Nita, even if it was a contractual relationship, which she believed Nita would someday be willing to unite with. Does he have to be honest with Rama so that his son can help so that he can take Nita's heart?

“Yes, Pah!” Rama smiled with force. His throat was getting hotter waiting for a reply. His heel was raised, and the fingers of his legs were bent pressing against the floor. His heel went down with trembling. “Come, Pah. Papah's not acting, is he? Tell me honestly to Rama.”

“Spend your food first, outside many who can not eat, or many who can not eat with side dishes,” Sergey said. Her heart was pounding, she was like a Junior High child who first knew love.

Rama's head swung to the right in disappointment. The spoon fork was kneaded and the mouthfuls were chewed four times, then swallowed violently. It felt like he was swallowing a jagged boulder. His hands were getting cold too. In his heart was laughing at himself who seemed shameless.

Rama often heard stories of someone being able to compete with friends for a woman. But he had never heard, a child snatched a lover from the papah.

Mentally, Rama was angry with himself. Desire to tear from within. The thought continues to shout to be straight honest with papah that he likes Nita, after the papah story that their relationship is limited to a contract.

Then, the hope, the papah can end papah's relationship with Nita.

...----------------...

While in the back garden, in front of the swimming pool, his Papah seemed to put on a tense look. In fact, until the papah cleared his throat many times, making the impatient Rama immediately moved to sit beside the papah, with the body facing Papah. The papah actually increasingly wrong behavior by brushing white hair that intersects short.

"Jagoanku, look. Papah and Nita. Actually, business-relationship"

"Yes!" Rama cuts with a sparkle. "Business." Smile fully expands and Papah frowns.

Like being struck by lightning, Rama who was happy not to flounder, instantly his heart immediately shriveled. Pain is immeasurable. All the prepared sentences in his mind, instantly disappeared.

"Tell me Papah. Papa's way of seducing Nita, Jagoanku." Sergey embraces Rama and rubs Rama's burly shoulders with anxiety.

Rama froze like polar ice, feeling the happiness of papah. I don't think he dared to ruin that happiness. "Bah, Rama doesn't know how" he said helplessly.

"Job I know, I'll do it myself. Precede papah, "inner Rama.

...----------------...

That afternoon Nita met an actor named Jonathan Pradhita, in a public place. After two years of patience, Nita was finally able to meet. "Ka Nathan ... sorry to take away my big brother's time." Nita squeezes the fingers in the lap. He spoke calmly and in an upright sitting position.

"No problem, Nita." Jonathan smiled, at the daughter of the former director at his agency when he first started his career. "I also offer condolences for your Papah's death. At that time I came, but you were so devastated that I dared not meet you."

"No problem, Brother. Can I ask you something?" Nita took a deep breath and tried to calm down. "Sister now, no longer working in my husband's company."

"Wait, does this have anything to do with Mr. Sergey?"

Nita furrowed her brows as Nathan's face instantly turned pale. "Little bit. Why did you get out of there, a year ago? In fact, our company is very much counting on you."

"It's not clear, I want to look for something new, so I'm not renewing the contract."

"No, do you know Mr Jefri?"

Nathan swallowed Saliva when his boss' name was mentioned. He still can not dwell on the right hand of the Mafia that continues to threaten him until now. "Sorry, I forgot, today I have to pick up my sister." Nathan stands up and grabs a plaid Gucci sling bag, cream-colored. He wears a mask, glasses and hat.

"Are you avoiding me?" Nita clutches Nathan's wrist and pulls him to not go. "Please, your name was raised by my Papah." Nita whose eyes glazed over immediately gasped because she just saw the man in the corner who was directly hiding in the menu book.

"So wait," Nita said, following 30-year-old Nathan. He tried to walk parallel to the man, passing through Rama's table.

"Nita, if you want to be safe .... " Nathan bowed and whispered in the ear of the woman who was biting her lower lip. "Sway Sergey's family. He's dangerous for you and "your family' "Nathan stood up straight, then looked back at the young man who just came out of the round table, Nita also turned back.

"What does brother mean? Don't play a riddle."

"You know why you've been through such a hard life? It all started with your husband because of the carelessness of 'your stepson' ."

Nita swallowed Saliva, glancing left at Rama who was walking quickly towards her.

"Don't play with Jefri, Sergey is no match. As long as you have time to run away with your Papah." Nathan leaves Rama when Nita is pulled rough by Rama until Nita's shoulder slams Rama's chest.

"Nathan," furious Rama at Nathan who ran away just like that.

Nita was still pensive and unconscious, her shoulder now embraced by Rama. Nathan knows my Papah is alive? Is Brother Nathan the key and knows about the accident?
