I Can Be Happy Without You, Mom
Chapter 58 The Arrival of Alif
Two days later.
"Assynolt,"
Someone came to see you when Rania had just bathed the Star.
"Waalaikum greetings, wait a moment," said Rania.
After wrapping a towel around her son's body, Rania immediately opened the door.
"Eh Nelly, come on in. Sit down first yes, I want to help Star wear her clothes first, just finished bathing because," said Rania.
"Yes, no problem, I'll just wait here,"
Nelly spread her gaze, nothing has changed from this house since the last time she was there. Although his former brother-in-law was now a lot of money, it turned out that his life was still as simple as before.
"Sorry, Nelly has kept you waiting,"
"No problem Ma'am, this dear Star aunt brought souvenirs for you and brother,"
Nelly gave the tote bag that he brought, Star received it with pleasure. Nelly was good, in stark contrast to her mother. It seemed that he was more following the good nature of his father as well. But she never interfered in her brother's household because she was afraid of her mother.
"You really bother Nelly, you just come here we're happy" said Rania.
"It's okay, Mom, I rarely come here. I happen to be working, I also want to return the money I borrowed. Thank you for helping me at that time,"
Nelly gave her an envelope with the money she returned. He put it on the table in front of them.
"Jeez Nelly, I forgot. I was willing to give it,"
"The debt must be paid, Ma'am, so when one day I need help again, I will not hesitate to ask for help with Ma'am again" said Nelly.
Rania is so salute to this woman's principle, even though her brother used to have no principles like her.
"Yes I accept, if you need help do not hesitate yes. I will help you as long as I can" said Rania.
They kept talking until they forgot about time, a lot of which they talked about as fellow women. They matched even though their current status was only a former brother-in-law. Because it has to work immediately, Nelly was immediately say goodbye.

In the afternoon.
"Hello Nia,"
"Yes, Marni, what's wrong?"
"My son is sick in the village, can I have a few days off? Let my husband take care of the shop himself,"
"Oh yes Ma'am it's okay. If Mas Slamet is able to handle no problem, but if you want to go home it is also okay Mbak rather than worry,"
"I've taught him, God willing he can. Hopefully my son will be healthy quickly so that Mas Slamet does not need to follow,"
"Amin, I also pray that Erwin will get well soon, yes,"
Since Mbak Marni returned home, Rania was confused to find a trusted store manager, especially after the theft. Luckily, Marni and her husband decided to return to the city and work back with her.
"More... Nia, open the door,"
Rania immediately put down her phone and rushed to open the door. She knew the voice belonged to her ex-husband. But once the man tumben did not say hello.
"What's the matter, Mas, instead of saying greetings instead of shouting?" ask Rania.
"Are you and the kids really in the room? You're not hurt, are you?" ask Alif.
'Oh deserved him to panic, it turns out that the news has reached his ears' inner Rania.
"Thank God if so. From the beginning I didn't like you being close to Rangga, that man put your lives in danger. You should not be close to him, the man has a bad influence on children" said Alif.
Somehow Rania does not like to hear the words of Alif who seems to corner Rangga, even though he does not know the real incident.
"It is precisely he who saves us, because of his kindness towards all our people can be helped. Even he is willing to sacrifice his career and himself for our safety, if Mas does not know anything please do not carelessly talk," replied Rania annoyed.
"That's his responsibility, because it happened because of him so it involves you. He's a dangerous man, Nia,"
"Enough Mas,"
Rania's intonation began to rise.
"You called Rangga bad after everything he did. Then you what? You even forgot you had two kids here. The problem of you not giving a living is not a problem, I can still support them. But they also need your affection, you never see them even for a moment. If you're just here to ban us from being close to Rangga, you better leave immediately. I know better what's best for kids than you do,"
Rania said firmly. Alif pissed him off.
"But Nia, I mean it's good. It's for the good of all of you,"
Alif was still trying to provoke Rania.
"Mas is not God who knows what is best for us, go and take care of your own household. I can still take care of my own life,"
Rania drives Alif away and pushes the man out. He closed the door hard because of the emotion.
Tok...
"Assalamualaikum, Ma'am,"
"Greetings waalaikum,"
Rania opened the door for her daughter.
"Why is the door in the lock, ma'am?" ask Alisa.
"Just get your dad here, son," replied Rania.
"Yes I know, it was passed in the street," said Alisa.
"Then what did he say? Did you give me money?" ask Rania.
Alisa shook her head.
"Dad's just saying go home, that's all,"
Alisa's face bowed sadly, maybe she was disappointed with her father's attitude. Rania can indeed give anything for her child, but giving Alif to her child even though only cheap toys will certainly make their hearts happy.
"Don't be sad, honey, we should be able to understand because now I have a new family. If others cannot make us happy, we create happiness. I'll always try to make you both happy,"
Rania hugged her two hearts, clutching them lovingly.
Children are sacred creatures, a sign of the bond of love between two people. You cannot be a victim of the disharmony of a relationship. If the couple can separate, but the blood relationship between the child and the parents will always remain until at any time.
"Mom, I miss the figure of a father. If I may ask one request, I want Om Rangga to be my father" Alisa said.
"Dear, be patient. I still have parents, we have to listen to the opinions of grandparents about Om Rangga," said Rania.
"So mom agreed to marry Om Rangga?"
Alisa's eyes were so sparkling as she asked.
"Mom wants to, but I have to listen to your grandparents' opinions, too" replied Rania.
