Capítulo 9: COMPLEX DECISIONS
Feeling bored and tired of being in the room, Ritika tries to leave the room. Take a walk to the flower garden in the side yard. He had never been there at all. However, he could see the beauty from inside his room which was on the second floor.
"I heard the conversation between Mrs. Wany and Mr. Edo last night saying, Madam wants to adopt the girl to be her daughter. Wow, how lucky he is."
Inadvertently, just a few steps away from the bedroom door, Ritika heard the maid who had been talking about her.
"Lucky, anyway… but it's a shame, he doesn't know how lucky he is. Ha ha ha! After all, if Mrs. Wany wants to adopt a daughter, why not just take one of us who has a clear background, and of course, is physically and mentally healthy, "said another servant.
"Yes, the Ritika whom Mr. Edo found yesterday looks like she is in deep depression. Miss Wany's lack of work at all? If you want to adopt a child, you still have to be mentally and physically healthy for that person first. His face is also normal."
"He doesn't know himself. even though, the madam has told her, as long as she agrees and is willing, one day all the property that the madam has will fall to her."
Ritika was quite annoyed that the two maids told her that her soul was sick and self-conscious. she wanted to reprimand and say that they were the ones who were ignorant and dreamed too much of becoming a suddenly rich princess but, it didn't happen. But, he came back to his senses. Talking to people whose IQ is low and not on par with him is also useless. It's the same as salting the water in the ocean.
"Hey! Since when did you guys get paid here to gossip and poke fun at?" snapped a woman with tall and large stature. His face looks fierce and firm. She is Mrs. Melani. The head maidservant is in charge of managing all the affairs of the servants in this house. Giving assignments, and also punishments for anyone who violates.
The two young maids who were around nineteen years old were suddenly taken aback and fell silent. Don't you dare say a word? They just silently looked down.
"You two have only been working here for two months. Don't repeat the same mistakes, or do things that are not allowed if you still want to work here!" he said curtly.
Ritika is silent. Even though it was clear in front of him that someone had taught a lesson to the person who had made fun of him. He looked normal and kept a straight face. It was as if his heart didn't feel the slightest bit happy.
"Ma… I'm sorry, Mrs. Melani," they answered in a stuttering voice but at the same time.
The thirtyfive years old woman just silently nodded firmly without a smile. Then walked to leave the place. however, he stopped again when he had only stepped a few times. He turned to the two new maids and said, "Don't get into the habit of judging someone from the outside. if the mistress has chosen him… it means he has something that you don't have. The lady is very observant, and knows which children are qualified and intelligent or not." After saying that, the Woman immediately walked straight toward the Warehouse and no longer looked to the side at all.
Hearing the last sentence spoken by Mrs. Melani, Ritika reflexively put a smile on her lips. Yet he was also not satisfied. Ah, I don't know... after what he's been through all this time, he seems to have gone numb, happy, sad disappointed it's all the same. the expression on his body he only showed looked normal. other than that, he had forgotten how sad and broken it felt, utterly crushed. Moreover, the feeling of happiness that grows from the heart. He had completely forgotten about it.
Again Ritika stepped out of the room and went out. He felt relieved and there was peace in his soul as the fresh air wafted into his nose and filled his entire lung cavity. Coupled with the breeze.
Not wanting to miss a moment like this, Ritika closed her eyes and took a deep breath of oxygen while stretching her arms above.
"Which favors of God do you deny?" Ritika muttered to herself.
"Good morning Madam!"
Ritika immediately lowered her hands and turned to the side. Following the source of the male voice who had greeted him with the good morning greeting.
"Sis Edo?" he said with a faint smile.
"Come here! You will love it!" he exclaimed.
Without thinking, Ritika immediately walked quickly to Edo who was sitting on the edge of the fish pond, and, put his feet in.
"It's been a long time?" the girl asked. he was already quite close to Edo. I don't know, Edo was too close to him… or because he was the man who saved himself that night from the four delinquents sent by his mother and stepbrother? Ah, maybe both.
Because, to fulfill his madam's wish, Edo also spends a lot of time with Ritika. Moreover, all this time Ritika was the only child with no siblings. He wanted to have an older brother who could take care of him like most of his friends in college. Then, he found that figure in Edo.
"Not. Just five minutes. Twist you out… I thought you'd stay in the room forever."
"I'm confused. So, I think with the exit, I can refresh my mind to be more comfortable and fluent in thinking," answered Ritika without taking her eyes off the pair of long legs that the small fish in the pond began to visit.
"Confused what?" asked Edo enthusiastically as he turned to look at Ritika's face from the side.
"As an ordinary human being who is not free from sin and hard to forgive, to be honest. I want to come to them to take revenge and take back the that they have taken away. However, if you have to change the identity of Ritika Putri Dorman Suhendra to Claudia Oberoi… it's difficult," said Ritika with a smile. He looked stupid when he said that.
"So what? What do you expect from Ritika's figure? By becoming Claudia, you can get more than Ritika has. Wealth, facilities, and also popularity. I believe, by using the background of the Oberoi family, it will be easier for you to achieve success at the top levels and peaks."
"I know it. but, for love?" Ritika turned to look at Edo. Hoping that the man who she considered an older brother could understand her.
"You're not ready to leave your lover?"
"Yes, that is so."
"Can't you come back to him with a new identity? men have broken up, let alone left their girlfriends dead and then dating again? Surely he will still love you. Because apart from that he feels similar…"
"No, Brother Edo!" interrupted Ritika firmly. But still, sound gentle.
"Why?"
"I feel, he will not easily accept a new woman in his life after the news of my death. I feel, I'm the only one who exists and reigns in his heart, "said Ritika firmly.
Edo narrowed his eyes and smiled lopsidedly. "Hey, are you sure?" he asked.
