One week has passed but Lauren still has not accepted the reality of what happened.
While Nathan and Natalia begin to find the bright spot who has done the boutique burning.
Today Nathan and Natalia are leaving for the police station because the police found a suspected forest arsonist.
Natalia asks Fikri to accompany Lauren. And Fikri of course is happy to come to Lauren's house because indeed every day Fikri comes to provide motivation so that Lauren can rise from the slump.
"Don't let the misfortune that befalls destroy your life. With patience and faith, you should be able to get through it and become a better person. Verily the greatness of the reward corresponds to the greatness of the test."
"Attomans are created along with the way out. Don't focus on the ordeal but focus on the way out."
" why?. Why would someone do to me what I did to burn the store?. Why didn't he come to me if I hurt him." Lauren choked when she heard from the police that this fire happened intentionally considering they found a container containing gasoline not far from the fire site.
"Patience does not mean being still does not move when you get a disaster. But patience is a way of keeping good when disaster comes."
" Why God is still testing me. I wasn't tested enough in the past. Why is God testing me again??"
" A disaster is created along with the way out. Don't focus on the ordeal but focus on the way out. I promise I'll find out the guy who did this and the motive behind it."
"Don't let the misfortune that befalls destroy your life. With patience and faith, you must be able to get through it and become a better person." Fikri said as he patted Lauren on the shoulder.
" Thank you, you're always there when I'm sad or happy."
" That's what friends are for..."
Lauren smiled and nodded..
" So don't ask God to ease the calamity, but pray to God to give you the strength to get through it."
"Whether it is, misfortune, defeat, failure, will not be a bad thing. But, it depends on how we react.."
Lauren was speechless, she could not help but say that what Fikri said was true. Nor are we too lamenting the calamity or events that have passed even though it makes us really hurt and down. Because things will not go back to normal.
Lauren then remembered when she was going home and decided to close the boutique, that night usually Lauren will leave all forms of design and all that is valuable including all the money earned from the sale of clothes on that day.
And that night Lauren suddenly put it all in and felt like she wanted to take it home. He had a feeling from God that something was going to happen to his boutique.
It was in that sadness that Lauren was tucked away in gratitude because she didn't really lose it all.
Lauren then realized that the biggest disaster experienced by humans was not a tsunami or landslide, but the loss of a sense of struggle and the emergence of a sense of wanting to give up.
Lauren got up from her seat and went into the room and came out carrying a box of important files that she usually left in the boutique.
" What is this?" Ask Fikri.
" It was these precious assets somehow that night that I who used to leave this mark inside the boutique was eager to bring it home and it was because of that desire that I ended up taking all of this home."
Fikri smiled realizing that God's grace was real. He sees for himself that God gave Lauren a code to bring home something precious.
" Yes you're right, I shouldn't have been so hard hit by what just happened to me, I should have gotten up and fought back to do what I lost."
"When you can fight and face the calamity that comes your way, then you are actually someone who has managed to prove that you are a strong figure."
" We prove to someone who may not like you right now that he did something stupid by burning a boutique. We'll show you that you're tougher than they thought."
Everyone must have felt various trials and disasters in living the process of life.
The word patience is sometimes a phrase that is often spoken when someone is exposed to the trials of life. It is easy to say patient when you get a disaster, the difficult thing is to run it.
Patience is arguably difficult to practice. Especially for people who are easily or easily ignited emotions.
Some people say that patience has its limits, but others say that patience has no limits. Of course, only people with big souls and airy are able to apply patience in everyday life.

Fighting for the future often requires some people to be excited in achieving dreams. The words fighting for the future also make us not give up when we meet obstacles.
" I'm sorry Momy Natalia, because the future for you has been ruined in the red whiz." Lauren said when she saw Natalia looking at the moonlight from her bedroom window.
"The future belongs to the person who believes in his dream and works wholeheartedly to make it happen. And I believe together we will re-knit our future." Natalia said with a smile.
Lauren feels proud and ashamed of Natalia because Natalia is stronger than Lauren.
Lauren immediately approached and hugged her daughter.
" You are indeed my daughter, my daughter, whom I love with all my heart. Your heart is so beautiful that it can make the people around you feel comfortable. Momy's embarrassed because it turns out Momy's not as loud as you. Momy is actually very bad because the future that Momy has built for you is now destroyed."
"The future belongs to those who believe in the beauty of their dreams. No matter how heavy the obstacles before him those who have good dreams can certainly get through."
"Son, today you do what no one else does. So tomorrow you will be able to do things no one else can do." Lauren said as she stroked Nathalia's cheek.
"Give the best, and you will get the best. Isn't that what Mommy always taught me?" Natalia said while removing the tears that continued to wet Lauren's cheeks.
Lauren hugged Natalia again, so grateful that God would not allow her to stay with the person she loved, but God gave her a noble daughter instead.
...Hard work is important. But there is still something more important, which is to believe in yourself...
...We all have to think about the future because we will spend the rest of our lives there....
