Behind Handi's Attitude

Sania and her best friend had arrived at the Villa and were sitting relaxing in the garden near the pool. They're talking about what just happened.

"Wrap me to you, Rianti. Can beat the head of the motorcycle gang, and wake them up. All this time no one dared to fight them, you know, "praise Rina for what Rianti did earlier. Especially when looking at how the girl slammed the body of the man easily and quickly. The others were staring at Rianti.

"So I got out of control, not consciously doing that. Actually surprised yourself. He first started. I don't like it to see him harassing us. If it's just annoying, blocking our way is not too problematic. But if it has been harassing and insolent so certainly must be fought. I was so emotional that I slammed him like that. Though the intention was to teach a lesson so as not to continue, "said Rianti.

"Who is Handi, anyway? How is that ruling? Until no one dares to rebuke or fight him every time he troublemakers?" rianti asked, curious. Looking at Rina. Others looked at him, curious. Rina finally tells the dark story of Handi.

"The temple was the son of one of the famous and richest figures in the neighboring village. His name is Bondan, so we call him. His father was a successful businessman in the city. I don't know what it is to be that successful and rich. Because of his many efforts in Jakarta, his father rarely returned home. Twice a month to go home. Sometimes not coming home in a month. Never been up to two months."

"His mother chose to divorce because she could not stand being in a long-distance relationship with her husband. At that time, Handi was a child, about five years old. School in the same kind of kindergarten as me, even my class."

"Oh, so you used to go to the same kind of kindergarten as Handi? You know very well about his life story, "asked Wulan. Lina nodded, confirming. Then continue the story.

"Said, her mother had remarried to another man and was living out of town following her new husband. I don't know where. Without bringing Handi who still desperately needs the attention and affection of a mother.

"Now Handi only lives with her grandmother and grandfather here. Since her mother married again and followed her husband never came again to just visit her son. Reportedly there is no more. As if removing a trace."

"His father had also remarried shortly after divorcing his first wife. And spend more time with his new family. With her stepmother and two children. While Handi, only occasionally looked at. But fortunately, his father was not like his mother who just disappeared. Still responsible and attentive to his son. Materially very sufficient, never feel the lack. He still often sends money to his grandparents, who are his parents. His father was a real person here. As compensation for being willing to raise and look after her son."

"Grandfather and his grandmother raised him affectionately, even pampering him greatly. But unfortunately, not properly educated. Never reprimanding him when doing wrong, let alone advising and scolding him, more often defending even if wrong. They cannot distinguish between good and right.

"As a result, Handi grew up to be a child who had a hard heart, selfish, wanted to win his own, likes to bully others who are weak, arrogant, and arrogant. If anyone dared to resist then he did not hesitate to punish that person cruelly. Until physical violence. Grandpa and his grandmother always kept quiet, as if closing their eyes to the bad behavior of the grandson. His grandfather Handi was also an influential and respected person in his village. So that the residents choose to be silent, do not dare to reprimand let alone fight it, making it bigger and bigger.

"And flirting with girls like that was his hobby and his gang. Many have been his victims. Both in his village and in my village. It makes parents worry about their daughters. Worried about being a victim of abuse. It's really troubling, huh."

"That's why I salute you, Ri. Can defeat and awaken it. All this time never once he apologized for all his actions with his gang. May he be truly sorry and willing to change for the better, "All assure his prayers.

"To my knowledge, "Rina went back to her story, "He was actually a good boy, including one of my playmates as a child. Perhaps, he was so because he swallowed a lot of disappointment, hurt and hatred to his parents who could leave him, which he had long harbored since childhood. Feeling unwanted. His mischievous behavior and frequent troublemaking is his way to release his emotions and anxiety, while attracting the attention of his parents. Actually, I often feel sorry for him. His fate is very sad. If I experience it, it will not be as strong as him. Lucky we still have complete parents. Their figures are always there. No lack of their love. Although materially mediocre. No less, not too much."

The long words from Rina made the girls who surrounded her to be amazed. Mused. Didn't expect anyone to experience such a miserable thing. Just like a soap opera.

"Pity too, yeah, Handi. It is unexpected that there are people who have such a sad life story, "said Sania, responding to Rani's long story earlier by holding back haru and concerned.

"It turns out there is something extraordinary behind a person's tough attitude. Lack of affection plus lack of good direction can have a bad impact on the mental health of children. Divorce between husband and wife often ends up painful. Children who are often victims. Miris, "wulan said, responded to Rani's story.

"Right, Lan, that's one bad example of divorce. It is fitting that divorce is the most hated thing with God, even though it is not forbidden. Losing a complete parent figure can damage the child's mentality, it turns out, "Ira chimed in Wulan's speech.

"Thank God, today we have learned a lot of important lessons, yes. May we always be grateful for all the blessings of a whole parent, a harmonious and happy family, our close friendship, plus a good educator for us. May it be a useful provision for our lives later. There are many others who are not as lucky as us. Therefore, do not waste our parents.

" They're still there, don't hesitate to continue to be devoted to them. Although what we do will not be able to repay all that our parents have put out since we are present in this world to this day, "Sania said, reminding, her eyes seemed to be glazed.

Those who hear, shed tears. Making the atmosphere in the pool that is actually bright, it immediately becomes cloudy because it sinks in the novelty because it remembers the parents of each at home. A sudden longing just broke out.
