The Three Chosen
250. Come Again
A few months after the death of Jaya and Boril.
Obi's situation is stabilizing. Obi lives with his grandparents who are Boril's biological parents. Obi is happy to get genuine affection from his grandparents.
Although Boril's parents did not like Lita, they could not hate Obi. They make up for all their mistakes that did not approve of Boril and Lita's marriage by taking care of and raising Obi in their home. While Boril's house was rented and the money was saved to help Obi's education costs later.
That afternoon the sun was shining. A woman was seen walking to Boril's house
which has now been rented. The woman who was none other than Lita knocked on the door several times and soon a hijab woman was seen opening the door.
“ Yes, find who Mbak is..?” ask the hijab woman was polite to surprise Lita.
“ Who are you, where is Obi.?” asked Lita while peeking into the house through the crack of the door.
“ Obi who is Mbak..?” asked the hijab-wearing woman did not understand while trying to close the door because she was suspicious to see Lita's movements.
“ Obi my son who lives here, when you do not know anyway.” said Lita riled.
“ I don't know Obi. Please don't do anything here, ma'am. If the rich mbak gini I can just shout call the neighbor.” threaten the hijab woman.
Lita shriveled and then retreated regularly. He looked around and saw the neighbors who began to emerge from their homes. Lita did not want to take a headache and asked again about Obi.
“ Why do you find Obi now.?” ask a resident.
“ Obi is My Son, so it is natural that I nyariin him..,” said Lita cuek.
Suddenly the voice of a woman broke the crowd of citizens to make everyone look at her.
“ After what you did with Obi and Boril, you still have a face here..?!” asked the wife of the RT chairman loudly with eyes that stared intently at Lita.
“ This is my business Mom, please do not need to interfere..,” pinta Lita.
“ I won't interfere if you treat Obi well. Just so you know yes, since you abandoned Obi and often left him outside the house hungry and cold, since then Obi became my and the citizens' business here.!” said the wife of the RT chairman fiercely.
“ Right Bu RT...!” said some residents loudly to make Lita's guts more shriveled.
“ Tell me what you are looking for Obi..?” ask the wife of the RT chairman again.
“ I miss Bu....,” said Lita while squeezing her fingers.
“ Kangen, sure..?” ask one of the people cynically.
“ You guys why the hell. I am Obi's Mother, so naturally I miss My Son and want to meet him.
“ But Obi has not lived here. She lives with her Grandpa and Grandma in their home.” one resident said.
“ Then this house..?” ask Lita not understand.
“ Why did you ask about this house..?” ask the wife of the RT chief suspicious.
“ Mmm..., I mean what is the status of this house..?” ask Lita.
“ This house belongs to Obi. This house has been rented to Mr. Rustam and his family for the next few years. And the money is saved for the cost of education Obi later.” said the wife of the chairman of RT firmly.
Hearing the answer of the woman in front of him made Lita upset. Indeed, Lita's return this time because she hopes to take advantage of her husband's inheritance house. Unfortunately, Lita is late.
“ Oh gapapa. That's good too. Where can I find Obi...?” ask Lita.
“ Your questions are weird Lita. Of course in your In-laws' house, where else would it be. Or maybe you also do not know where Boril's parents' house which is also your in-laws is Lita.?” ask the residents while looking at Lita from head to toe with a suspicious look.
“ I know kok...,” said Lita quickly while rushing away from the place without permission.
Residents who were upset almost judged Lita but still could be prevented by the wife of the chairman of RT.
“ Don't, don't. He also will not dare to meet Obi after what he did with Obi..”, said the wife of the RT chairman with a smile.
“ I've seen her behavior is Bu RT. Rich people have no sin..” grumbled one citizen to make other citizens laugh.
Then the wife of the RT chairman also approached Rustam's wife to make sure if the woman was safe.
“ Is Miss Rustam all right..?” ask the wife of the RT chairman while looking at Rustam ma'am fixedly.
“ Thank God I gapapa kok Bu, thanks..,” sahut bu Rustam.
“ Good for that. Miss Rustam don't worry. She is just a woman who likes to find sensation and will not dare to come back here again.”, said the wife of the RT chairman who was embraced by Rustam.
“ Well, thank you again yes Mothers and Gentlemen..,” said bu Rustam with a smile and cupped his hands in front of the chest.
“ Both Bu Rustam. Do not hesitate to ask for help if it is needed.” said the citizens to make Rustam's wife nod.
Soon the residents also stepped out from the front of Boril's house which is now rented by the Rustam family.

Lita was still standing in front of the alley with a puzzled face. Lita was seen standing while staring at the vehicle that passed in front of her with an illegible look.
“ Sia*an, where should I go now. I have no money and no place to live anymore. I thought I could use Obi and stay with him. But it turns out that the boy has been taken away with his tacky Grandpa and Grandma..” grumbled Lita while clenching her hands.
Lita does intend to take advantage of Obi's innocence by pretending to live with him and selling the house
sneakily. Apparently Lita realized that she did not have any rights to the Boril heritage house because the house had been given by Boril for her son.
Lita was forced to return because she had no money and no place to live. Lita is lonely and feels driven away after a man who has been her place to depend on will marry another woman because she is betrothed by her family.
Initially Lita hoped much if the man who invited her to live with it could take her to the pelaminan. But Lita was wrong. That man never loved Lita. He only wants Lita to accompany him when he needs someone to vent his desires. The man thought that connecting with one woman would be safer for him than he would have to pay a woman a night that must have interacted with many men out there.
“ You lied to me Roy. You're just using me..!” lita lantang said.
“ Don't forget Lita, I also gave you money and a place to stay during this time.” Roy said casually.
“ But that's not what I want Roy.
“ All this time I never promised you another life Lita. We do it on the basis of liking and it's not free. I always pay you with some money. Now I have to marry the woman of my family's choice. So understand it. It's better to leave here soon because I don't want my wife to misunderstand later.” Roy said without feeling.
Lita looked at Roy for a moment then let out a long sigh. Lita believes that Roy's decision to remove him from the house has been unanimous. Lita left the house, which made her ignore the child and her husband with a heavy heart.
