The sound of a cell phone call wakes up Satriya who is still half asleep, her eyes look at the cellphone on the table and then reach for it, the time is still six in the morning. Sliding the phone screen to answer an incoming video call, "It's still six o'clock Wasto too early," answered Satriya while yawning and rubbing her face. "I also brought breakfast for you" his face seemed to fill the cellphone screen with a smile, then showed the package in his hand. From the background of the cellphone screen, it appears that Satriya recognizes where the man is calling her. "Wait a minute, I'll open the door," replied Satriya, who then got up from the bed and headed for her bedroom door. The man who was standing waiting for him from behind the door of his room was named Wasto. A friend and neighbor live in the same apartment as him, but the man has lived in this apartment before he can even say that Wasto is the first occupant since this apartment was built. Not surprisingly, Wasto finally got a job as an apartment manager, especially for several blocks in the area. "Indeed, how many apartment blocks need Wasto's care today?" Satriya asked as she headed towards the dining room to prepare some utensils before heading to the bathroom. "Many Satriyas, I expect it to be late at night" Wasto answered while pushing Satriya to hurry to the bathroom. After bathing and getting dressed, Satriya returned to Wasto who had made him a cup of coffee, his face a little happy because the food that the man brought was his favorite rice uduk. Satriya voraciously ate breakfast in the morning. While sipping his coffee, Satriya again asked, "Wasto, can the used goods that I deposited some time ago be exchanged or liquidated?" "Not yet, but you can just take mine if you need it," explained Satriya about the receipt in the form of money from the sale of used goods. "Are you serious Wasto... can you?" "As you know, I haven't gotten a regular job since yesterday's disaster, not to mention thinking about the costs for my two younger siblings to be in the dormitory even though they get scholarships but for their daily expenses, it is still my responsibility" Satriya added with a downcast face. "Hey...hey... Satriya, don't complain too much, just live this life like tomorrow you don't have time to live anymore, because it's our fate that is impossible to change." Waste rebuked him, trying to comfort him a little. "That's not what I meant Wasto, but... have you never felt a strangeness with a life like this, as if we were in this world from birth that we were determined what we would become. Why do we have intelligence if everything is only for certain groups?” “I understand Satriya…, we better just do what we can to stay alive okay?” Wastro didn't want to talk anymore. "Okay, Wasto for the pick-up or maintenance schedule which place do we want to visit first" Satriya tried to be excited. "Well..., that's just what I like, our first visit schedule will check Caesar Apartments if there are used goods that we can transport, besides that on the eighth floor there are those that need repairs," Wasto replied excitedly. After gulping down the coffee in the cup and preparing the utensils, the two of them rushed to the basement where Wasto's vehicle was waiting. "Satriya this time it's your turn to bring this vehicle, I'll just do the loading task," Wasto then gave him the keys to his vehicle. "Have you charged the battery, right?" Satriya said jokingly, reminding Wasto who often forgot to charge his electric vehicle. "No need to worry Satriya, the reminder sticker that you suggested I put on the dashboard in front of the steering wheel" he replied while blushing. “Satriya… Satriya Watch the path!” Wasto reprimanded Satriya who was driving the vehicle and it didn't look right. "Oh..., sorry..., sorry Wasto, I lost my concentration a little" replied Satriya and immediately regained control of the vehicle. “Are you okay Satriya? I should just drive if you still feel unwell” Wasto reminded again. "No ..., no Wasto, I'm fine, my eyes seemed like dust was bothering one of my eyes" replied Satriya giving an excuse.. Satriya actually experienced something again with her vision, this time she found that the road she was walking seemed to have changed, especially the rows of buildings that lined up as if they didn't exist, replaced by rows of dense trees. Luckily the man beside him patted him on the shoulder and woke him up, so something bad could happen. "Okay Satriya, we have arrived, are you sure it's okay?" Wasto asked again as the two of them unloaded some carpentry tools from the back trunk. "Never mind Wasto stop insinuating an unemployed person, which floor was in need of a godden repair?" Satriya replied with a laugh, realizing that the man had been trying to tease her. ** "Later, after the curtain repair is complete, just leave the access card in the lobby, sorry I can't accompany you both because I have to catch a flight" when the man who owned the apartment approached and then hurriedly left the room. "Okay Mr. Hussein" Wasto replied nodding his head. A few moments after the departure of the man who owned the apartment left. "Wasto, may I ask you something?" with a little whisper when Satriya approached the man who was opening the electrical electrical panel. "I know what you want to ask" Wasto replied then explained to Satriya the activities carried out by the apartment owner before leaving them. "How many times a day do they do this?" Satria was a little curious. "Five times and sometimes at a certain time, later you will also find it in another place Satriya" Wasto added his statement and turned to ask. "What is it Satriya, their business" "It's not like that Wasto, to be honest I've seen or observed it often, the main question of mine is the similarity of them" Satriya then stated one of their abilities for something from time to time so that sometimes even logical things they can't handle. describe each problem. "For example?" replied Wasto "Yes, as we are doing now, the owner of this apartment thinks that the damage caused by a warning or a sign of something mystical in nature, while we both have explained that this is just a matter of maintenance and technicality," Satriya replied with a smile. . "Leave it alone Satriya, isn't this precisely one that benefits us?" Wasto replied as if he didn't care about it. "It is indeed difficult to talk to prospective capitalists, what is seen is only an opportunity" Satria replied with a half laugh. "How Satriya, have you fixed the hinges for the curtains?" Wasto then asked Satriya to go back to check the work they had done, and make sure all the tools they used were not left behind. They also rushed to leave the place to continue the schedule of visits to the next place. ** Satriya parked the vehicle in a row with other vehicles. Meanwhile, not far from the parking lot, several men and women were gathered while enjoying snacks and some warm drinks. Meanwhile Wasto unloaded some cargo. "Hi Satriya, how are you? are you healthy? Sorry, yesterday I didn't have time to visit you while you were being treated for some time,” said a woman named Sisca. "Hi Sisca, I'm fine, thank you" Satriya replied while shaking the woman's outstretched hand, then walked hand in hand to those who were gathering to greet each other with her. You guys seem really enjoying it, what are you guys watching?” Satriya asked while laying her back on the long sofa beside the five of them. "It must be a game show with money prizes that is going viral between some television actresses and a youtuber right?!" Sisca tried to guess what they were watching online. "That's right Sisca and guess how much one member of the Lion group named Zee collected,?" "How much do you get now?" Sisca's question of course made Satriya a little curious to see it, because she felt the name mentioned sounded familiar to her ears. "Wow, that's a tantalizing number," said Sisca after looking at the laptop screen. "I can imagine if Satriya who joins the event will definitely be fun" said one of them, making them become boisterous with their respective wishes about Satriya's participation. While Satriya only responded with a little laugh, considering the statements they made were mere jokes. "Satriya, you are called Mr. Cheppy inside" said Wasto while joining in the midst of the chat. While Satriya headed for the intended room, Wasto was heard adding to the chat based on his version of Satriya which made them laugh again. “You call me Mr Cheppy?' "Aah Satriya ..., Please ..., please, just relax, we chat for a moment ..., pour the coffee that is on the table, make yourself too of course he .., he .., he " said Mr. Cheppy with his trademark slightly witty accent. "What is it, Mr. Cheppy, you seem very happy?" satriya asked while giving him a cup of hot coffee. "Yes, that's about it, there are two things that make me happy today, the first is for you and the second is also for you he ..., he ...," "You mean Mr. Cheppy, I don't understand?' "The first is about your income, as Wasto and his other colleagues told me, they have agreed, including me of course, to put all the income they have this week into your account" "All?" Satriya seemed not to believe hearing this. "The second is, this foundation is the one appointed by the government to clean up several buildings that have expired before being demolished and rebuilt for different purposes, the location and time are still in process" "So what does that have to do with me?" Satriya responds. "Your name is at the top of the list based on the recommendations of colleagues in this place he ..., he ..., he ..." Cheppy still said with a witty attitude. "But Mr. Heppy..." Satriya remembers that in the next few days he will face a trial for a job. "Never mind Satriya ..., just accept this opportunity, you are more than worthy considering the achievements you have given so far for the foundation besides that the time required is also more flexible and not binding" Mr. Cheppy cut Satriya's explanation a little. Satriya was speechless even to deny what had just happened to her. Yes, maybe this is one of the reasons Satriya can feel comfortable being and being a part of this social foundation. A non-profit organization that is oriented only on the humanitarian side in the form of a foundation has been able to have a positive impact not only on itself but also on people from various circles without being limited by any barriers. "Hey Satriya ..., why are you daydreaming!" reprimanded Mr. Cheppy. "Yes, it means that the business is finished now ..., so if I call tomorrow or the day after or next week, it means you can pick up at the place I talked about earlier, ... now immediately get your feet out of this room ..., Hurry up… ha…, ha… ha…!” Half shouting and then laughing out loud Mr. Cheppy with his style which was a little extra ridiculous, he invited Satriya to be able to gather with Wasto and others who looked increasingly boisterous watching the event that was being discussed in cyberspace.
