Dino and Rere’s Dispute

"Leon, mommy is home," Rere called while carrying a shopping bag. As usual, Rere spent her time shopping. 

"Leon is sleeping. Don't be too loud," Dino replied coldly.

Rere's face soured as she looked at his husband with disapproval.

"Dad, I'm going to Mom Dila's place," Hanin said, leaving without looking at Rere.

"Look at your daughter." Rere was annoyed, she felt that Hanin didn't respect her.

"What about Hanin?"

"She doesn't regard me as her mother," Rere spoke while placing the shopping bag on the table.

"Oh, you feel unappreciated? Are you treating her like her mother? You just called Leon and ignored her."

"What do you mean?" Rere felt awkward then remembered her mistake. "I forgot."

"As a stepmother, you have to understand the child. Oh yes, I forgot if our marriage was forced. I was being ignored, so of course, you will ignore Hanin too."

"Speak clearly. Don't beat around the bus."
