CORONAS

7. NEW PARADIGM

Cabinets, beds, couches, tables, chairs, began to move from the container into the house. Heavy items were usually carried by the two men. Yuva only brought furniture that looked light. But if forced, Yuva also helped lift heavy luggage with the two men.

 

Not only lifting, in the house they are also told to arrange the furniture in accordance with the instructions given by the homeowner. As a person who was not given any work, I was just glued to the yard while playing my smart phone. Sometimes I also watch people passing by on the road with a variety of activities. Until the time passed very boring. Yuva stayed with them for two hours.

“Thirty minutes? Is this not wrong?” Yuva rebukes strongly when his caldier sensor tells him the addition points he gets. Yuva's voice drew me to approach her immediately.

“Why? Isn't this your job? As people with dangerous diseases, it is your job to help healthy people like us, right?” respond to Dian in an arrogant tone.

“Have I spent two hours grappling with the furniture that was only valued at thirty minutes? You don't have feelings?”

“Then you think the one who made a mistake here is me?” deny the man. “Don't you understand the procedure? It is the machine that is on your neck that judges everything. Blame the machine dong should,” reply the man who brought us this again.

Yuva's hands clenched with trembling as she looked extremely annoyed. He said that he wanted to get up and told us to get into the truck if he wanted to be taken somewhere. Yuva refused firmly. But I hurried to calm him down. As I recall he was still able to scan the results of his work from the homeowner.

“Maybe the result is even worse. You don't remember those disgusting eyes of the married couple?” reply while stepping out of this courtyard of the house.

I'm chasing his steps. A few words to encourage her I spewed out in order to restore her deteriorating mood. Although he himself did not pierce with his eyes to the front and a quick step. His face looks tired. The energy he put in for two hours did not get the results that were worth it must have really stirred his emotions. I stopped my lip chirping and immediately bought two bottles of drinks at the roadside stall.

 

After sipping the drink I bought, our steps still continued. My eyes were still wildly glancing here and there to look for someone who might be in need of help. Soon, we arrived at a traditional market in the area. The traditional market in 2046 is quite different from the traditional market thirty years ago according to my mother. The place is cleaner and neatly arranged even in an open building that is only roofed and rotated. Inside there are a variety of sellers from clothing traders, foodstuffs, furniture and so on. The payment system usually only uses mobile transfer through smartphones used by both buyers and sellers. As well as the storage system of goods at each stand seller is more secure.

 

A well-tuned young woman – may be a marketing worker – is handing out hologram brochures through a tablet she holds on to passersby to promote the products on her open stand. By utilizing tablets and internet networks, the hologram brochure can be moved directly and easily to the smartphone of the person passing the origin. I persuaded Yuva to help the woman to get more Life Point. Yuva's facial muscles were still tense with the look she always threw in the other direction. Lost the spirit perhaps. But after the constant\-continue of urination, he also collapsed.

“There can we help?” my greeting to the woman standing handed out the leaflet. My shoulder is to nudge my lover's body so that he is also excited.

The woman did not answer immediately. His eyes were on both of us. “Oh, no. May if you want the intention to help,” he said with a smile.

The woman immediately transferred the same hologram flyer to our smartphone and immediately dispersed to a separate place. Each of the holo brochures we shared with pedestrians and visitors to the market was like throwing the wind. Some accepted it with a smile on their face. Adapted to the cool style. Yuva's tired face was bothering me. The guilt of forcing her too much drew me back to her. I told him to rest for a while. He refused and said he was fine.

Lapse some time – maybe about an hour – holo brochure we have shared a lot with people. My eyes caught the neatly-spirited woman now heading to a mini car she parked on the side of the road. I responded quickly. I pulled Yuva's arm quickly to chase after the woman before she actually left. My hand patted her shoulder after I got close to her. The woman turned around with a look of wonder.

“Can't you help people once? As I recall earlier you offered me voluntarily,” hardiknya with looks not like.

Scanned addition points total ten minutes. Will be immediately summed up with the Life Point you have. The sound of the caldier operator gives its notification after scanning.

“Ten minutes?” Yuva commented.

“Sorry, but this is how we do it. We sincerely help, it's just that we also want to stay alive,” obviously I'm quick to muffle his upset face.

“To connect life? Huh, deservedly then,” responded with an harassing tone.

“What do you mean?” the look on Yuva's face turned ominous. I felt the air pressure turn heavy.

“Not important. I think you're just a bunch of people living on the mercy of others. Poor thing,” he replied as he passed away leaving.

Yuva's face turned red like a ripe tomato. “You who do not need to pay wages to us should be grateful! Your money is whole without even a single coin coming out! We just need to scan your emotions of satisfaction, and make them our age enhancer! That's all! But why are you acting like we're begging you for money? Are you thinking through your snoring?!”

 

Yuva shouted as she followed the direction the woman walked away from. I caught up and my hand quickly moved to hold Yuva's upper arm to hold her back. Then the emotion that just looked like boiling water instantly turned into steam that slowly soared.

 

“What are you doing, Eldan? I'm not gonna do anything to her. I just want to vent my frustration,” Yuva muttered slowly. Although his face still did not look relaxed.

I took my hand off of him. “Oh, is that it? Thought ...”

Yuva's feet began to step away from this traditional market. I rushed to follow him. Yuva is seen trying to hold back the rest of her unstable emotions. That's why I just shut it down.

“This way Aunt Viola said the other day it was clear,” Yuva opened the conversation again. My forehead was cluttered not understanding his words. “Tante Viola has experienced it. Yes, experiencing bad treatment due to the paradigm of society that has changed about our existence, the users of kaldier.”
