When Love Should Determine

When Love Should Determine
Chapter 136


Iqbal was furious when he found out that Hamzah had been hiding behind the wall and recorded all the damage. He felt that he had been trapped.


Seeing Iqbal's anger, Hamzah was not afraid in the slightest, even he deliberately challenged him.


Iqbal was getting angry, he went forward and wanted to take the phone from Hamzah's hands. But Hamzah swiftly convoluted and secured the phone in his pants pocket. "Go from here! Or I'll report you to the authorities on charges of disturbing the peace and comfort and the deformity measures" he warned.


After being given such a warning by Hamzah, instead of being afraid and leaving immediately, Iqbal instead wanted to attack Hamzah by raising a fist into his face. Fortunately he swiftly dodged the sudden attack.


Larissa was a little scared when she saw her sister starting to raise her hand towards her husband. But she believes her husband can handle all of this. He only hoped that his brother would soon leave his house and not disturb them again.


Seeing that Iqbal was not afraid of the threat, Hamzah was forced to do the next plan. "So you're not afraid of my warning? All right then! I had to report you to the police. Remember that! Never blame me for my actions, for I have warned you before."


After saying that, Hamzah took the key of the motor lying on the nightstand and passed through Iqbal without the slightest fear. "Come, Larissa, we go to the police station now!." His hand held the wife's hand to go with her. How could he have left his wife alone at home in this state of heat.


Hamzah started the engine, Larissa went up on the bat. But when Hamzah was about to launch his motorbike, Iqbal stopped him. "Stop!" yells.


Hamzah quickly turned off the engine, and they went back down. "What's wrong? are you afraid of our threats?" he said demgan grinned cynically.


Iqbal turned his face away, his eyes closed with tightly clenched hands. Shame to admit defeat. But this must be done if you still want to breathe free air. "All right! This time I gave up. I'm gonna get out of here. But remember! I'll never stop bothering you before you hand over the certificate to this house."


Hamzan smiled cynically in response to Iqbal's threat. "Do whatever you want to do, I'm not afraid. But remember one thing, this is a state of law. So don't let you regret it later. You must not forget that I already have proof of your actions?" he said while brandishing a cellphone containing evidence of the recording of the destruction earlier.


Iqbal snorted in annoyance, dragging footsteps so as not to be further humiliated by Hamzah.


After Iqbal was not seen again, Hamzah began to breathe freely. "Thank God! Everything went according to plan. I'm pretty sure, after this your brother will think a thousand times if he wants to bother us again."


Meanwhile, after her brother left, Larissa instead cried so much that it made Hamzah confused. "Don't be afraid anymore, Larissa. Look, it's all over, your plan is going well" he said, holding his wife's body to calm down.


Instead of being calm and stopping crying, Larissa actually more and more body in her husband's arms. "I'm not afraid at all of my brother's threats, Entik. Because I'm sure you'll protect me."


"If you're not afraid, then why are you crying?" hamzah asked, getting confused.


Slowly Larissa withdrew from her husband's arms. He wiped away the tears that wet his cheeks. "You know, Entik, this is the thousand-day anniversary of my mother's death. But now we, his children, are fighting over his inheritance. I must be very sad to see all this," he said.


Hamzah returned to his wife. The long mane belonged to the wife. "Don't cry anymore, none of this is your fault. Let's just pray that your mother is given happiness up there."


After his wife stopped crying and regained her composure, Hamzah took his wife in. "We'd better go inside! it doesn't feel good for the neighbors if we linger outside."


Larissa nodded, and they went back inside.


It is also a lesson for Hamzah, that fighting violence should not be with violence anyway, but with intelligence and calmness.

Human life will never stop from having problems. Every day there are problems that come, ranging from work, relationships with friends, family, spouses, or financial problems, because it is already the law of nature. Even the dead face their own problems.


But behind every problem, there is a wisdom that can be learned, and all that gives us a lesson that is increasingly mature.


And so it is with Larissa. Every day there are problems. Starting from the attitude of the husband that sometimes he can not understand, the mother who seemed to be favoritism towards him, the stepbrother who always envied what he had and even wanted to take everything from him, the mother who seemed to be loving towards him, the half-brother who always envious of what he had and even wanted to take everything from him, economic problems, and other problems that cannot be mentioned one by one.


But behind all the problems, the maturity of the mind and also the maturity of itself is increasing. Now he becomes a wiser person in responding to problems.


...****************...


Time continues to roll, leaving many memories that we can tell later in the day to our grandchildren later, as well as a lesson for the future.


Over time, Zahra has grown into a teenager, which means that there are also increasing problems that Larissa must face.


With so many problems surrounding him, he was no longer a child that could be banned or would stop crying just by giving him a candy bar. He will rebel and even misstep if we as parents are not able to educate him well.


The task of parents is to meet all the needs of children, care for, and provide the best education. Whether it is public education, or religious education.


Talking about religious education, it would be better if we instill religious values in a child since he was a child. Because religion is the foundation of life.


And this is what Larissa is trying to do. Every day he was often angry and quarreled with Zahra because his son was very difficult to be invited to worship. There are reasons he made in order not to do his duty as a Muslim.


"Entik, I was confused to have to advise Zahra in any other way. I've tried many different ways but it only lasts for a day and two days, and tomorrow she's forgotten" Larissa lamented one day as she was relaxing with her husband in the room.


"Don't be too hard in educating children, later he even rebelled. Let it all flow like water" replied Hamzah in response to his wife's complaint.


Hearing the husband's easy answer, of course Larissa disagreed. "How am I supposed to calm down if Zahra doesn't want to pray every day? he's a teenager.we're wired to remind him, and if necessary, we can beat him."


"I know! But we can't force him to use force. Try to find another way, emotionally possible approach? Are you a mother? I'm sure you'll understand our kids better!."


Larissa fell silent, digesting her husband's speech. She realized that what her husband said was true.


Larissa began to think, looking for ways that might be able to overcome this problem. Suddenly an idea came to his brain. "I know what I have to do!" he said while flicking his fingers.
