The anger and shame that at any time can dirty Tasha's face makes the girl continue to sob bitterly. This time he was no longer alone, Tasha vented her tears at the arms of the Mamah.


“Crying, Son. Mom will wait until you talk. There will be a way out.” Indri said as gently as possible as his hand gently rubbed Tasha's hair.


Some time Tasha vent her sadness that for years she was quiet. This is when he opens everything to the mother.


“Mamah, the man.he's coming back. He returns in the lives of Tasha as well as Gara. Tasha won't, Mah. Tasha doesn't want him to know Gara and take it.” Tasha shook her head without mentioning the name of the man she was referring to.


Since the incident four years ago, Tasha has not wanted to discuss anything about the man at all. Every time the papah asked the figure of Raga, he always cried. No matter if the papah will hit him.


However, the Word is indeed a good and loving man. He was so patient with his family problems that he decided not to discuss anything more about Tasha and chose to run what had happened.


“There is your Papah that will protect you and Gara, Sha. Be calm. That man won't be able to take our cause. But, Mamah wants to ask you, Sha.”


Tasha looked at the mama with both eyes that were flooded with tears.


“Did that man not know you were pregnant? Mom is really confused.” Indri felt he did not know what to say. How could the man who impregnated her not know if the woman was pregnant? Thought Indri wondering.


“Mamah, he doesn't know anything. And Tasha hates that guy, Mah. Tasha doesn't want that guy in Tasha's life anymore.” Seeing the child's explosive emotions, Indri chose to calm the child.


Discussing all this at this time no longer seemed to be any use. Most importantly now Tasha and Gara are safe and have nothing to do with the man anymore.


“Sha, then Mamah tell you, don't give a chance to a man like that. Mom wouldn't like it if you were in touch again. Remember the struggle of Papah and Mamah all this time dear.”

In the evening Tasha got a call from one of the customers to advance the time of completion of the goods.


Slowly he put down his cell phone and massaged his aching head. Not over personal matters, now Tasha has to think about her work.


“Until any time Raga will not know Gara. I will not give way to them. Brengs*k man like he does not deserve to be called Papi by Garaku.” muttered Tasha determinedly.


Skipping dinner together, Tasha gets the attention of the child.


“Kakak!” Gara's call from outside made Tasha turn her head. He smiled in the middle of his work.


Slowly stepping small carefully. For his hand carried a tray of dinner and also water and milk in a small glass.


“Yeah Gara, here let mami take it. Who told my mom to bring this? If the fall continues to break the danger, Gara.” Soon Tasha took over the child's luggage.


That night Tasha also ate with the child sitting quietly watching the mother.

The second day of working together, now Gara has come early in the morning to continue shooting the next clothes.


“Uncle, photoin us dong!” Gara's scream while in front of Raga's office building made Tasha surprised instead of playing.


The two argued over the protest when Tasha asked security for help photographing the two.


The design of Raga's office building has several times wanted to make Gara take pictures with the background of the tall building. Unfortunately this morning the boy had a chance.


“Gara, already come later we take photos when we want to go home.” Quickly Tasha pulled her son's hand when she saw who her son was calling.


“No, Brother. Because I want a photo first. Due to bored photos with plain baground keep.” His protest was still holding his hand that Tasha wanted to pull.


“Uncle, here!” Gara waved at the figure of a handsome man who caught his attention as he got down from the car.


Raga smiled funny looking at the attitude of Gara who was pretentious like the same age as him.
