Happiness is Simple

After receiving his friend's wedding invitation, immediately iqbal called ilham. "Hello, Assalamu'alaikum ham!!" Said iqbal with his spirit.

"Waalaikum salam warahmatullahi wabarakatuh. What's the matter bal?"

"Here, there was a package coming to my house. That's what you sent?"

"Yes why?"

"Oh Allah, so you really want to get married? Same dinda?"

"Yes. Ask for his prayers yes, hopefully launched."

"Oh yeah sure, my tenure ain't at the doain. You're the best prend poreper..." Reply to iqbal with a laugh. "So what's the cloth for?"

"Make a uniform one home. But later pas dateng do not forget to wear."

"Yes, yes, time is not. Well, if so, I know you must be busy with weddings?"

"Not really. It's just a little gnarly..."

"Udahlah do not be that stubborn, that's how appealed later if you've shaken the hands of your prospective in-laws lo it for Ijab Qabul Abah.weh Masya Allah,,,,,,, you know,,,, the teacher used to be the future-in-law." Behind the phone the inspiration fell silent, only his long breath was heard.

"Udah do not be nervous, let the ijab qabul time. Shrimp yes, anyway I will definitely doain lo. The best..."

"Hm, thanks..."

"Yes... Assalamualaikum."

"Waalaikum salam."

After the inspiration answered his greetings, iqbal immediately hung up the phone.

"Whose phone was it?" Ask lina.

"Ilham."

Lina.

"Oh yes lin, tomorrow it's the cloth directly put to the tailor yes..."

"That means tomorrow you also join dong, it must be measured."

"Eemm, yes tomorrow we are the same to the tailor. Because the time is so good."

"okay."

08.47

"Can't it be two more days? I take it Monday."

The tailor's mother fell silent to consider. "It could be mbak, but Monday afternoon. I'll make sure it can be taken everything."

Lina nodded with a smile. "Thank you mom. If so I say goodbye. Assalamualaikum."

"Waalaikum salam."

Lina walked out to the car. There is already iqbal and aluna waiting. "When do you want to take it?" Iqbal asked as he entered the car.

"Monday afternoon, if we want to leave when?"

"Look at you later, if you're not busy."

"Well can you?" Asked lina with a glass. "Let's have more time there mas, because it's not possible only a day two days, it's enough to let go of longing. I also don't know when I can get together again like later. Yea?!"

Iqbal fell silent by tapping his index finger towards the steering wheel of the car. Thinks.

"Yes try it later it could not be Tuesday, if not Wednesday. Yea?!"

Lina nodded. "Yes...But in the business, you can..."

"Yes saayaaang..." Answer iqbal with a smile and start the engine. His feet began to gas slowly.

"Wait to the office?"

Iqbal glanced at lina at a glance. "Four ten there's an important meeting."

"That's.g,,"

•••••

"Lin!! linaa....!"

"What's up?"

"You're the file I put on the desk?"

"What file?" Ask lina back.

"That's a very important file lin, a cooperative relationship with clients who are very profitable for our company." Iqbal.

"Are you sure you put it on the table here?"

"Yes"

"Try to find again, I'll look somewhere else." Lina said straight out of her room. Look for those important files in the living room and living room. But in fact, the one we were looking for never met.

"Where's lin? Any?" Tanya iqbal approached.

"No..."

"Hhh ahaduh..." Lirih iqbal by massaging his forehead. "That's if we lose the danger, we can lose our company."

"Ask aluna mas," suggested Lina.

"Where the rich file understands that lin, he's still a kid."

"Just try, who knows he saw the paper on the table

you."

"Where's aluna?"

"Main behind the house." Lina's reply made iqbal rush straight there. He walked in from behind.

From a distance of five meters, his second step came to a halt. Looking at aluna and kevin who was playing paper and forming it into various shapes. Iqbal's heart immediately stirred, he was afraid that the paper used by the two boys was his important file. He was in a hurry to get to aluna and kevin. And when it came to iqbal crouched in front of the two.

"What are you doing again?" Ask iqbal.

"It's well, Aluna is making a plane. Good, dad??" Aluna answered by showing his work.

Iqbal smelled a smile by taking it. The paper that has formed the aircraft is directly fox iqbal and describe until only the indentation of the curve remains on the paper. His eyes were perfectly rounded when he saw the paper. Sure enough it turns out, the paper was his important file.

He immediately took out another finished form of paper, then did it just like before. And again, he believes now, that all the papers that aluna and kevin use to play are his important files.

Iqbal's anger immediately peaked, however this was very important. His eyes stared intently at Aluna. "Where did aluna get this paper? Answer honestly!!" Ask me slowly, but firmly.

Aluna looked at her father in horror. "Table..." Smooth speech.

"Daddy's work desk?"

Aluna was scared.

Hearing that answer made iqbal take a deep breath by clenching his hand. Lina who had been standing up since then, was now in a state of fear. What if iqbal gets angry with aluna? What if her husband was rude to her daughter? This is a trivial matter, but it poses a big problem.

"Why didn't aluna say it first??!"

Aluna.

"It's not aluna's fault..." Kevin arrived. "I was wrong, I told aluna to take paper so we could play together."

"Kevin! In the first place, um don't ask you,,,!" Cold iqbal reply. The mood was completely destroyed this time. "Why aluna?!" Ask iqbal again in a slightly loud tone.

"Yes..." Call lina to calm down.

"Lo also diem lin!!" Cut iqbal. "Let's answer dad, why didn't you say it first? Why didn't you ask permission? Is this what your father taught you, taking people's stuff without permission is okay or not?!" Said iqbal whose anger had taken possession of his body. He did not snap, but it was clear that iqbal was angry, making aluna silently cry in fear.

"Sorry dad..." Aluna said with trembling. He was afraid that his father would do something unusual to him.

"Y-yes...Dad...." Call aluna. "Sorry..."

Iqbal breathed a rough breath. Angry, really upset everything made his mood shatter into pieces today. He immediately stood up and walked back into the house.

"Mas Iqbal!!" Call lina, but not by her husband.

"Mother..." Call aluna to look at her mother with eyes filled with tears. "Aluna apologizes mother..."

Lina sighed slowly. "I'm sorry about you baby, don't cry." Lina wiped away her daughter's tears. He took her and brought her into the house.

Kevin could only remain silent. The guilt is on him too. "Sorry, Aluna, I should also be angry, not you. We are equally wrong..." Kevin muttered slowly.

From the living room, lina saw iqbal who was walking quickly out of the house. His hands carried the usual black suit when he went to the office. "MAS...!!" Call her. "Mas Iqbal!!"

Iqbal stopped his steps near the door. Before long, aluna and lina were in front of him. "Mas, where are you going?"

"To the office, there's a meeting." Answer iqbal as if and then walk again, but his steps are held by the wife. "Mas, aluna wants to..."

"Gue ain't got time!" Cut iqbal. Without caring for the two, he immediately went walking out of the house. His attitude this time was so cold.

Seeing his father's attitude that was not as usual, made aluna clutch tightly with her fingers. "Yes..."

Lina. "Dad is the same as Aluna? Aluna apologizes bun..." He said with a sad face. "Aluna doesn't want me to love Aluna."

"No dear. Daddy still loves Aluna, you just need time, huh...?!" Lina replied calmly.

•••••

The afternoon changed, and the evening changed. The night is getting late, but iqbal has not come home since he left. Lina stared at her phone screen. It says the clock

21.18, why so long? Aluna was waiting for him to come home, to apologize.

Lina sat on her living room couch. He was heavy. Pensively.

The sound of the door opening made her surprised instead of playing. It showed me an iqbal coming. "When's the day it came?" Asked lina by standing up. "Kok I don't hear your car?" Again he asked. Though usually he will hear the sound of an iqbal car when it comes, but why is this time not at all audible?

Iqbal walked over. "Make coffee."

"Yes." Yeah." Lina answered directly following her husband's orders.

While iqbal sat on the sofa, put his suit just like that in any place. No five minutes of that lina came by putting a cup of coffee in front of her husband. He sat down next to Iqbal. His eyes stared long at the tired face of the man beside him.

"Yes..."

"Hm."

"You still angry?" Ask Lina. But iqbal chose to be quiet and enjoy that cup of coffee.

"Aluna was waiting for you, oh, she wanted to apologize. But because long ago, until he finally fell asleep."

Iqbal let out a long sigh hearing that. "Mas, are you still mad at Aluna?" Ask lina again.

He looked, then shook his head. Smiling at his wife. "I can't be mad at Aluna." The answer.

"I'm sorry too. Because of aluna's fault, it's also my fault." Lina. "May I fail to educate him??"

"Hcshh...I don't like you talking like that. Not a failure, but aluna is still too small. No, don't blame anyone. Especially yourself, nothing is wrong..." Iqbal.

"But what about the cooperation project?"

"You don't have to think about that either. Company business, that's my business. I'll think about the solution later, right?! You are calm..." Iqbal sighed heavily by massaging his forehead. Lina just kept watching her husband. He must be confused now how to solve this problem.

"Did I look rough with aluna lin?" Ask iqbal.

Lina shakes. "No, just your cold attitude earlier, scare aluna."

Iqbal. Yes, because he was really emotional. And anyway, he had held his emotions to death to not be rude to his daughter, even though he was really upset.

In Islam, anger is a forbidden thing because it harms yourself and others. There are also many in the Qur'an and the hadith that explain that we must endure anger. Because anger actually comes from the whisper of the devil. Similarly, when we are dealing with children, do not shout and scold him. Counseling and showing that what the child is doing is wrong, may be better. Hold your emotions by being as positive as possible, or by taking ablution water. The Quran Surah

Al A'raf verse 200:

وَإِمَّا يَنْزَغَنَّكَ مِنَ الشَّيْطَانِ نَزْغٌ فَاسْتَعِذْ بِاللَّهِ ۚإِنَّهُ سَمِيعٌ عَلِيمٌ

"And if Satan comes to tempt you, take refuge in Allah. Verily, He is All-Hearing, All-Knowing."

And from Abu Hurairah RA:

عَنْ أَبِيْ هُرَيْرَةَ رَضِيَ اللَّهُ عَنْهُ أَنَّ رَجُلًا قَالَ لِلنَّبِيِّ صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ : أَوْصِنِيْ ، قَالَ : (( لَا تَغْضَبْ )). فَرَدَّدَ مِرَارًا ؛ قَالَ : (( لَا تَغْضَبْ )). رَوَاهُ الْبُخَارِيُّ

It means: "From Abu Hurairah RA that there was a man said to the Prophet SAW, "Give me a will." The Prophet SAW said: "Do not get angry easily." Repeat the request a few times. He said, "Do not get angry easily." (Silver Bukhari)

The next day when Aluna woke up, the little girl immediately walked in search of her mother. But his steps stopped when he saw iqbal and lina who were having breakfast together. He looked at his father scared. Is Dad still? Inner asked. Later if you do not want belbicala again with aluna how? He asked back in his heart.

"Luna..." Call lina who sees her daughter just speechless to see the two of them "Why stay there baby, let's eat."

Iqbal immediately stood up and walked closer to aluna, and his daughter only bowed down when she would be angry again. But his guess was wrong, his father even carried and kissed his cheek twice. It was a smile and a look of affection towards her. "Why silence hem?" Ask iqbal.

"Dad not even?"

Iqbal.

"No." He answered by sitting back and holding aluna on his thighs. The plain eyes of aluna stared at iqbal's face.

"Relatedly? Dad not anymore?! I'm not gonna get another kid, right?"

Iqbal frowned. "How about other kids?"

"Yes, aluna was the dream father of another child. Turn the boy into a father's son. Telus dad no longer love the same aluna, if the father even. Aluna apologizes to me..." Sincerely speaking. But iqbal laughed.

"I'm afraid to adopt that child? Oh Allah aluna, why should adopt a child.kan father already have his own child. If you want to again..." Iqbal glanced at lina. "If you want again, then there will be a father to make the same mother."

Hearing that instantly made lina glare sharply.

"Dad and mother can make children??" Aluna was confused.

"Actually that makes the child God, but his efforts are in the father and mother. "Jawab iqbal.

"the symptoms?"

"It's easy, just stay in the bedroom..."

Lina kicked the table. Making the two surprised "Mas!! Don't teach aluna macem macem!!" Lina was upset. But again iqbal even laughed.

"Why is lin? My man just told you." Answer's relaxed. Lina just shook her head hearing that, she immediately walked over and carried aluna. Take him to sit on his lap.

"Darling yes, if you want to ask something do not be the same father. Same with mom..." Lina told me.

"Why mother?"

"Father's answer is all wrong, nothing's real."

"Oh, Dad used to be stupid at school, didn't you?" Aluna's question made Iqbal choke.

"No! Nope! Father pinter..People always enter the top fifteen!" His eagle.

Lina smiled cynically. "People enter the top fifteen in the class only proud. In the past, there were also thirty students in one class. Aye right?"

Hearing that iqbal immediately pouted. "Yes, it's pinter. But I'm just aja who won't admit that I'm a pinter, eating it first was pura goblok."

Lina squeaks. "Tau ah's. It's up to you...You are free." He said by feeding aluna bread that has been smeared with chocolate jam.

•••••

"Because happiness is simple. It is enough to be in the midst of people who really love you, accept you for who you are, understand your situation and always paint a smile on your face. Because the fact of happiness is not measured by how much money you have, how many friends you have and how successful you are today."

- Iqbal -

"Never measure the happiness of others by your happiness. It will never be the same. You have different portions. Just look at what you already have, then be grateful. Gratitude brings happiness by bringing so much meaning."
