If in the past Larissa had a dilemma to rule out the disease she suffered because of her mother, now Larissa again experienced a dilemma because of her household problems. He was sick, but the mother continued to antagonize him and drove him from home.
"Oh my God, what should I do. I knew, if I checked myself again this time, I would definitely have to have surgery. But the problem is that if I have to have surgery right now, then I won't be able to work during the recovery period. And what about my son? How do I meet my household needs if I can't work? While the source of my income is only from selling this rujak alone" complained Larissa when she woke up in the middle of the night when the pain came back.
"in addition, if I have surgery now, then what about our plans to build our own house. My mother kept driving me out of this house."
"Oh my God, am I selfish if I choose to have surgery now? Give me Your guidance, O God, what shall I do?" larissa said with tears. Next to his hand held his chest which was very painful.
Larissa also tried to discuss this with Hamzah. But her husband also could not provide the best solution. In fact he was impressed indifferent with the disease Larissa suffered.
After some consideration, Larissa finally decided to re-exclude her illness and chose to build a house as they had planned so far.
Larissa began to realize her plan. According to the beliefs of the surrounding residents if you want to build a house, it must be held thanks first, so that when the construction process will run well.
Because he did not want to take risks, Larissa also did the tradition. He invited in-laws, mothers, brothers and some neighbors to eat together while praying for the smooth development later. Here Iqbal was also present to meet the invitation from Larissa.
There were no obstacles while the event was taking place. Mother also looks happy when the laying of the first stone is done.
After a few days the foundation of the house was completed. But from here the trouble began to come. Because the money that Larissa has is getting thinner and thinner.
Initially Larissa planned to make a simple wooden house, as long as they could occupy it. Because at that time the money he had was not much. But when the construction took place Hamzah even forced to make a house with a concrete frame. The money he had was not enough. Be confused looking for a loan to continue development. Fortunately, there was one neighbor who wanted to help him get a loan at the Bank.
When Larissa dizzy seven around and around looking for a loan, the mother-in-law even wanted to borrow money from him. Coincidentally at that time he was also renovating the house and the lack of costs as well.
Larissa was confused, but to refuse the mother-in-law's request directly she was unable.
Larissa also tried to find a way out by talking to her husband. "How, Entik? Did we stop building our house?."
"No! I don't agree. How could we just stop building houses."
"But what about your mother's request, Entik? I don't feel good about refusing it."
"Now that you choose, you want more of our interests, or of others?."
"Of course it's in our interest."
"That's you know!."
"But the thing is, that's asking it's your mother, your own parents. Don't you feel sorry for them?."
Hamzah sighed softly before answering his wife's question. " Now, I ask you, how much money do you have?."
"Just five million."
"If you gave the money to me, what about us? We are still short of money and looking for a loan. But you want to give someone else a loan. Isn't that funny?."
With courage, Larissa also refused the request of her mother-in-law. "Mother, I'm sorry! Right now I can't give my mother a loan. I need money right now. The money I have right now is borrowed from the bank."
After hearing Larissa's words, Her mother-in-law was silent. But from the look of his face it is clear if he is very disappointed with the assessment from Larissa. He left in front of Larissa.
Since then the attitude of the mother-in-law towards Larissa changed completely. All this time he was very good to himself because what he asked was always obeyed by Larissa. But when his request was not obeyed, his attitude immediately changed. And not only did the attitude of the mother-in-law change, the entire Hamzah family turned against her.
Understand now Larissa. It turns out that the kindness of the Hamzah family is not sincere. They were nice to him just because they wanted to. And now he no longer wants to think about others, even if it's his own family.

"Today he said. He said gini, 'Had known the parents were renovating the house, even follow the build of the house as well. Can't wait until it's done first what.' that's what he said, Mbak."
Larissa was stunned to hear the complaint from Mbak Ina. Indeed, he did not expect the aftermath of his rejection at the request of his mother-in-law would be like this. He could only stroke his chest to hear it.
"By God, I never meant it that way. Ma'am Ina knows for herself, right, how I am doing right now? I was often chased out by my own mother. That's why I'm reckless at home" Larissa said. He also tried to explain by telling the question.
