I have a pretty good habit of getting up early even on holidays. Sometimes, I love to see women sweeping — I mean, I sometimes like to pass women sweeping because I'm jogging. Sometimes too, I see mothers are busy gossiping with each other, I like to interfere with them. What are they talking about, I usually listen to it.
"Jeng, you know what. Yuni is pregnant, even though she doesn't have a husband yet."
"Really, Jeng? It could be bad if you haven't married yet."
"Eh? Really?" I am surprised. "Yuni is pregnant? Ah, that's bad. Yuni is Mr. Markus' son, right?"
"Yes, mas Daylon."
"As I thought, there must be something with him."
"Mas Daylon, do you know something about him?"
"I don't know, though. It's just that, I often see Yuni's level, sometimes it's weird."
Of the 6 people around me, only me and the vegetable seller are men.
"How strange, mas Daylon?"
"That, that. We doesn't know, anyway?"
"What the heck, mas Daylon. Just make me curious."
"You know what, if Yuni sometimes likes to hang from the banyan tree?"
"Hanging? What do you mean, mas Daylon?"
"That Yuni... has died, a week ago."
After I said that, the women and vegetable vendors were suddenly shocked. And after that, I left them and went back to jogging.
After I was quite satisfied around my boarding house, I decided to go back to the boarding house because it was already 6 in the morning.
After cleaning myself, I stood in front of the mirror and saw a man there. The man had jet black wavy hair. Having a handsome after face and after being handsome, the man smiles seeing me. There was not a single flaw in that man. Whatever he does, he will always be handsome.
Yeah, I agree with that.
As usual, I checked the weather forecast on television. However, what appeared on television was not Vivi, but a man.
For several days now, this man has always appeared on television. This feels so annoying, I haven't seen Vivi in the past few days. I wanted to complain to the television station, but I was afraid of being kicked out there.
So, I'll just accept fate.
"Today's Esports News. It's amazing, Club Bengawan was beaten 3-0 by Club Meralco from the Philippines last night. When interviewed Evan, he only said that this was a technical fault, and said that there was a disruption to the system, so that's the reason we lost."
Clek! That television, I turned it off.
"The event is not clear. Vivi, where are you going?"
For the past 2 years, I only spent weekends around my boarding house. Before that, I usually played EOA games for adventure. My life changed completely, even I often stay silent because I don't know what else to do. I have a smartphone that I've been using for a long time, but I rarely use it. I only use it for watching YouTube, of course for watching National Geographic and Spongebob Squarepants.
But lately, sometimes I also like reading articles on the internet. I started studying psychology to get to know humans. I'm not in college, but at least I have to know what human nature is.
The article that I read at that time, was an article about a splashy lie. Well, I read an article about the 2012 apocalypse.
Reporting from the site Menit.cod, 7 out of 10 people believe that the end will occur in that year; 2 more people, don't believe in that thing; and one more person, when asked, he said that he was not a native there, so he did not know.
So, judging from the article, it is clear that most humans believe in something that is not certain.
For example, the mothers I met earlier. They gossip about other people, without knowing whether it is true or not. And it turns out, the news they got was news of lies, even though that person had long died, and I knew about it.
Or maybe, news from the world of sports, for example, the world of football. When Lionel Messi had finished his contract at Barcelona, a lot of news emerged saying that Lionel Messi was going to move clubs, and most people believed that. And in the end, Lionel Messi prefers to stay at Club Barcelona.
Rumors will still be hearsay. Do not believe things that are not certain, before finding out the real facts.
So, as a good human being, I prefer to keep quiet about things like that.
My smartphone has become a little useful lately, I often read articles and learn about psychology. I don't know the reason why I did that. Since I read the article Rifai gave, I became addicted to reading. And coincidentally, when I was reading an article, suddenly an ad appeared and forced me to download the Media Psychology application. Maybe that's the reason why I'm doing it lately.
When I was engrossed in staring outside my boarding window while smoking, my smartphone reads "Cling". They are message tones, not dial tones.
When I checked it, I got the message, "I'll be at your house at 9 o'clock. Wait there! (Cat Emote)!" from a number that is not listed in my contacts.
I don't know whose number, what is clear, I know who she is, who sent this message. She is Mutiara Anisa, I'm very sure. She was the only one who would see me later, so it was certain that this was she.
I just replied, "Yes!" only. The reason? Because I'm lazy to type, and want to see the outside window.
What I see now is the big house opposite my boarding house blocking the view of the morning sky. Even though the house got in my way, I didn't turn on the owner of the house for some reason.
Knock, knock, knock! And sure enough, what I hoped for, finally arrived.
I opened the door, "Yes?" and pretend he doesn't know anything.
A 20-year-old woman was standing at my door holding a lunch box.
"It's from my mother, for Mas Daylon's breakfast."
I took it, "O-Oh, thank you. So it's troublesome, hehehe."
"It's okay, Mas Daylon."
Of course, it's not a bother, instead, it makes me happy. Free breakfast, really delicious.
"Then, I'll go home first, Mas Daylon."
"Yes. Say thanks to your mother, Amanda."
"Yes, I will convey it. Then, I'll go home." Amanda turned and walked away from me.
After she came home, I closed the door and hurried over to eat this breakfast.
The mansion, which I saw earlier, was the house that was occupied, 6 days ago, by a fairly wealthy family. They often provide food to local residents near their homes. Therefore, I was always waiting for him to get this food.
The adage once said, "As long as the free is still there, then take it!" I've always had such a principle, that's why I chose to look for free. Oh, I forgot, it turned out that my father said that, so it's not a saying that says that.
Since there is no dining table, I sit on the floor, right in front of my television.
I opened the lunch box. "Hahaha. Free, free, free, free food. Hahaha."
As expected, the contents of this food box are my favorite food, namely uduk rice.
"Enjoy your meal."
