Chapter 83 - Hanin And Rere Debate (1/2)
”You have to be patient with Rere. She is young, No. This is a test in your marriage. The test comes from your own wife. I'm sure you will love each other. Falling in love can be different for each person. Some fall in love at first sight, some fall in love because they are used to it, and various other reasons for falling in love. Love is a complicated topic since everyone has their own taste, level, and experience. There are several reasons people fall in love with each other, one of which is they have something in common. For example, the similarity of ways of thinking, hobbies, and so on. This similarity will lead people to explore each other's preferences as well as understand each other's character. When both feel compatible, then the love will grow. Spending time working together, discussing everything, and interacting will bring you closer to each other and love will start to grow from that point. Remember, there is only a thin line between hate and love.”
”I don't know, Dil. I'm not sure about this marriage. Sometimes, I wonder why I married Rere when she didn't ask me to be responsible.”
”Patience, No. It's not easy. You have to fight for your marriage. I'm sure you can teach her to be a good wife and mother for your two children.”
”Hopefully.”
Rere, Hanin, and Leon went to the airport to accompany Dino. At first, Rere refused but the murderous look from Bara scared her. She was forced to accompany Dino to the airport.
”Hanin, please be a good girl when dad is not around, okay?” Dino stroked then kissed the little princess's forehead.
”Okay, dad. I will be a good girl to mom.”
Rere's eyes bulged when Hanin mentioned Dila, as a mom, she felt that Hanin did not respect her as a mother.
”Why do you want to be a good girl for mom and not for mommy?” Rere said, trying to persuade Hanin.
”Sorry, auntie,” said Hanin curtly.
”Why did you call me aunty and not mommy?”
”You are Leon's Mommy, not my mommy.” Hanin looked at Rere disapprovingly. Hanin knows how bad Rere and Dino's relationship is. The girl often saw the two of them fighting.
”Don't force her to call you mommy.” Dino tried to calm the situation. Dino didn't want a commotion in the morning. Dino approached Leon and carried his son. He also kissed his son's forehead. ”Beloved Leon. Dad will leave Mommy and your sister in your care. you need to be dad's replacement at home and keep the women safe.”
”Okay, dad,” Leon said cheerfully.
”I'm leaving,” said Dino, glancing at Rere. He lowered Leon from his arms and handed it to Rere. Dino then extended his hand to Rere so that his wife shook hands and kissed his hand.
”What do you want?” Rere felt strange and did not understand what Dino meant.
Hanin took Dino's hand and kissed it. ”Why did you not understand it, auntie?” She said sarcastically. ”I have already set an example, aunty. Kiss dad's hand!”
”What?” Rere's eyes widened when Hanin ordered her to kiss Dino's hand.
”Of course aunty won't do it.” Hanin put her hand on her hips and teased her stepmother. ” Only Mom Dila is polite and respectful. Every morning I see mom kissing Uncle Bara's hand.”
”Hanin,” Dino stopped his daughter. Dino doesn't want to be labeled as a bad teacher to her daughter.
”I'm just saying what I saw dad,” Hanin smirked at Rere. Hanin obviously showed her strong dislike for Rere. Hanin behaved like that because Rere treated her dad badly. ”Goodbye, dad. Be careful there. I will miss you.” Hanin hugged Dino before the man went inside for check-in.
Leon and Hanin waved goodbye to Dino. Rere was happy because she will be free from Dino.
Hanin took Leon's hand leaving the airport. She didn't want to look at Rere. They didn't make a sound as the silence filled the car. Hanin plays her tablet in the car, and invites Leon to play with her.
”Hanin, don't play with your cellphone! We're in the car. You'll have a headache.” Rere reminded.
”I'm used to it,” Hanin replied curtly without looking at Rere.
”Hanin, if Mommy says stop, then you will stop.” Rere couldn't contain her emotions. She tried to be patient since Hanin ignored her
at the airport.
”You cannot stop me. You are no one to me,” Hanin retorted. The little girl was still busy looking up at the tablet screen. Hanin busied herself playing games, and asked her brother to guess the picture.
”Hanin, don't be impolite, you need to call me mommy!”
”You are not my mother. My mother has died. Mom Dila is a substitute for my mother. You don't love me. You only love Leon.”
”Why do you say that?” Rere growled in annoyance. The driver could only hear and look from the rearview mirror at Rere and Hanin's dispute.
”Auntie doesn't love me. Auntie hates dad and me. Auntie only wants to live alone with Leon. I love Leon because my dad said I should love my brother.” Hanin stroked Leon's head. The boy was busy playing and ignored Rere and Hanin's argument.
”Hanin talk politely with mommy!”
