I Can Be Happy Without You, Mom
Chapter 106 Meeting Rania
"I didn't expect your mother to be that kind of stuff, Mas. All this happened because of him,"
Laila was angry, she was disappointed with her husband's attitude that was too weak when facing her mother. It shouldn't be because he's an old man so he can act arbitrarily towards them.
Laila stepped into her room, she sobbed.
"He killed our son, now he's making his mistake a burden on us. Not to lose this sadness, your mother has added new problems for us,"
Laila again felt the pain of losing a baby, as if only yesterday all that she experienced. The mental and physical pain that he is now feeling.
"I'm sorry Laila, how should I? Should I yell at my mother? Should I kill him like he killed our baby?"
Alif is confused how to behave, all this time he really prefers to give up if it is related to his mother. It even managed to ruin her marriage with Rania before.
"You're an adult, I shouldn't teach you anymore about how to behave. If you keep this up, even a thousand women you marry the result will remain the same" replied Laila.
Alif sculpted, he tried to digest the words of his wife. But as hard as he thought, he still had not found a way out of everything.

A few moments later.
Ting tong's...
"Sir, please open the door. I'm going to breastfeed Naya first" Rania's pinta.
"Good, Mom,"
The ART rushed down and opened the door. It was Laila who came with Akila.
"Please sit down first, I call mom first up,"
Mbak went straight up to where Rania was.
"So this is where Alisa's sister, yes, nice and big,"
Akila looked around in amazement. Even that was felt since he began to be in the yard.
"Dear, we should still be grateful even if our house is simple. There are still many whose lives are much harder than ours,"
Laila gave understanding to her daughter.
"Yes ma'am, I'm happy enough to have a complete parent,"
Akila looked at her mother with a happy feeling. He felt grateful to have such a kindly extended father to him, like Alif.
"Laila, same
"Laila, how are you?"
Rania hugged Laila, it had been a long time since they had met. Last met when Rania visited Laila in the hospital when she miscarried.
"Well, Ma'am," replied Laila.
"Alhamdulillah, let's just go upstairs,"
They were sitting in the living room on the second floor.
"Hi Akila, haven't seen each other in a long time. Aunty call brother Alisa yes, sit down first,"
Rania went to Alisa's room which had just finished bathing with the Stars. They were very happy to know the arrival of his half-brother. They approached him immediately.
"Come on Akila, let's go to my room" The two stepped into Alisa's room feeling happy.
"Laila, I'm sorry about the money that happened to you the other day. You're patient, yes" Rania held Laila's hand to strengthen her.
"Thank you Ma'am, I'm sorry that time I couldn't control my emotions. All of a sudden it made me so sad and devastated" Laila replied.
"I understand, I salute you who are so strong. Now how's your life? Do you still live there?" ask Rania.
Finally Laila told him all the events that happened to her. Although they have no blood relation, they look very familiar. Maybe because Rania was in the family, making her understand what Laila is going through now.
"Geez, how outrageous is Mas Alif's mother. Instead of apologizing, he complicates your life" Rania said in response to the story Laila told.
"I'm sorry Ma'am, it's not that I want to open up a disgrace in the family. It's just that I feel comfortable telling Ms. Rania,"
Rania understands Laila's feelings because she also feels comfortable telling stories with Laila. It is like finding a new brother.
"Laila, if you need help, don't hesitate to say yes,"
Actually Rania wants to help Laila. 10 Million is nothing to him. But he did not want to hurt Laila's self-esteem so he said so.
"Yes, thank you for understanding. My heart is glad to share with you, Ma'am,"
Rania hugged Laila tightly.
"If you need a loan to pay for it all, or to open a business I don't mind helping. Don't think about the payment because I sincerely want to help" Rania said.
After a little pushy, Laila finally accepted her help. But the woman only borrowed 3 million for business capital. Rania also gave 2 packages of skincare so that Laila could market. Laila was happy that she would soon be able to help her husband make a living.
After a few there, he finally said goodbye.

"Laila, where have you been?" alif asked when his wife had just arrived.
"So there was a little business, Mas," replied Laila.
"Are you still angry at me? I promise to pay for all the money you asked for and won't trouble you" Laila smiled wryly.
"Here you go, I'm tired of wanting to rest,"
Laila lay in her room, Alif tailing behind her.
"I'm sorry Laila, until now I haven't been able to make yourself happy. I also don't know why my mother likes to make noise, but I'm always helpless" Alif clasped his wife's hand.
Again, that's what her husband always said. He should have been able to act more assertively. We must dare to straighten out the bad deeds of people we love in order to be aware immediately. Do not use powerlessness as an excuse to justify.
"Dare to do it must dare to bear the risk. Everything we plant is also what we reap, Mas. I don't want to argue anymore because we're both grown-ups,"
Laila turned her back on her husband. He was tired of hoping. Maybe he should start trying to be independent. Anything can happen with their marriage.
"Laipa... Don't ever leave me. Fight with me" Alif said.
"I will not leave you in this condition. But please don't expect too much from me Mas, I'm afraid I can't survive" said Laila.
"Don't say that, I will fight as hard as I can. I'm sure we can get through this,"
Alif said as if he could solve everything. He said so because he did not want to lose the person he loved, it is up to Laila to look at him selfishly. He just doesn't want his marriage to be ruined for the umpteenth time. Especially for the same reason, namely the attitude of his mother who is always unfriendly.
"I don't know until when it will last. But I will try until I can no longer" said Laila.
