Robert Incited Zahra

Love and Robert pushed each other, nudging the cauldron and spilling oil. Robert kept doing it, until Stifen and Zahra came along.

"Why do you encourage love?" Stifen looked at his papa.

"Papa wants to save your wife, because there's a fire in the kitchen." Robert's alibi.

"It's not like that, Papa you have disturbed me who concentrate on cooking." said Love.

"You should not deny it, from the beginning it was never appreciated. Look, Papa's cheek until it's slapped by him." Robert pretended again, let Love be cornered.

Zahra poured water with the bucket she was carrying. He immediately pulled on Robert's arm which was slightly burning with fire. Love is really upset, with her flirtatious in-laws. There are only reasons he is looking for, to trouble the position of Love in the house.

"Why is it like that?" ask Zahra.

"At first Papa just asked for a delicious cooking recipe, he even slapped Papa. He said Papa was interfering with his concentration, as he said earlier." Robert replied annoyedly.

"This love looks polite at the beginning, why after being a daughter-in-law even like this" said Zahra.

"He just wants our blessing. Actually, Papa knows one thing about love. However, it is very difficult to explain it to Stifen. He must not have believed, with what Papa had seen." explained Robert.

"He's why Papa, quick story." Zahra pushed Robert's thigh, urging her husband to tell her a quick story.

"From the beginning Papa did not agree they were married, because Love was the girl in a brothel." Robert pretended to cry, wiping away his fake tears.

Zahra hugged her husband. "Father, what a noble heart you are. You're willing to be bullied by a son-in-law, for Stifen's sake to be happy." Feel very moved.

"That's why, Love from the beginning seemed hostile to Papa. He made Papa like a passenger in his own house." replied Robert.

"Mama will teach him a lesson, that he may repent. Don't go on being a hypocritical woman." said Zahra.

Stifen holds the hand of Love. "We better get out of this house, if you're not comfortable with Papa" he said.

"What is the reason we go." replied Love.

"I'll tell Mama if we want a honeymoon" Stifen said.

"Dear, this is good too." Love is a little relieved.

The next day, Robert approached Love in the kitchen. Just wanted to disturb, Zahra had come. Zahra winked at Robert, then her feet moved closer.

"Love, have you ever dated a man?" ask Zahra.

"Not Ma, I spent time selling and working, then immediately married to Stifen." replied Love.

"Although never dating, it is not possible that a woman is still holy." Zahra looked at both eyes of Love.

"What does Mama mean? Mama suspects me?" Love feels something is wrong, maybe it has instigated Robert thought.

"Mama didn't say it, but you said it yourself. Stifen is too good to play with, if someone is not sincere it is better to back off." Zahra warned firmly.

"Ma, I love Stifen, just like my own family."

"You don't love yourself, how can you love others" Zahra said.

"True, in the world there are rarely people willing to admit wrongdoing." - Robert.

"I don't understand why Mama changed with me. I really want to make my husband happy, even if other people's responses to me don't match reality." Love tries to hold back the tears.
