That night, after a heated argument between them, Heru leaves some money at the table for Anya. And though upset, Anya accepted Heru's money gladly. It was a bonus or maybe Heru felt a little guilty for not being able to help him. Though it should have been that night Heru did not have to pay him anymore, because that night was the third night Anya had to pay her debt. Anton's hospital fee debt that Heru will bear until the man is discharged from the hospital.
Due to her bad mood, Anya chose to go comforting herself that night. No, Anya doesn't want to go to a club or anything like that that gets her drunk. Anya prefers to drive her motorcycle to a night market. Places frequented by commoners to find entertainment. It was late when Anya went there alone. Visitors who are usually crowded are no longer there. Some sellers even began packing their merchandise back, preparing to go home.
Anya chose to stop by a meatball stall that was still open and ordered a bowl of meatballs. Then eat it yourself while enjoying a quiet night. Anya observed the people passing by in front of her eyes. Faces that look tired after a day of making a living. Then Anya's gaze was fixed on a couple who were shoulder to shoulder pushing the cart and the rest of the merchandise. Around him the teenage children the responsibility of chasing each other. Their faces were sweaty, shabby, and looked tired. But they can still throw each other laughs and jokes. Without feeling her lips curl up a smile. Anya could feel the warmth between the small family despite living within limitations. The family warmth is impossible in Anya's possession because she is a discarded child. Suddenly Anya felt her life was very lonely and miserable.
Anya ate her meatballs and sipped her drink to the toilet, then paid for it without asking for change. The merchant was very happy and grateful to Anya. Seeing the smile on the meatball merchant's face somehow made Anya's mood better. And suddenly in Anya's mind came across an interesting idea. Anya no longer felt that the problem was a burden. I am tired of feeling lonely. Maybe holding someone in his rented house will make his life more interesting and Anya need not be too afraid of it. Is it not God who guarantees the sustenance of every creature? Anton must also have his own sustenance that God will entrust through him. And Anya was not afraid anymore.
Anya drove her motorcycle with a light heart towards her contract. Arriving home, Anya immediately washed her face and slept soundly. Maybe tomorrow, Anya wants to visit Anton with something delicious.
The next day Anya woke up early. Somehow after thinking about his plan Anya became even more excited. This time Anya did not cook and did not have breakfast at home. Anya just took a shower until her body felt fresh, then immediately left. On the way Anya stopped by a chicken porridge gorobak on the side of the road crowded with buyers. Anya ordered two to be wrapped, then took her to the hospital.
Arriving at the hospital, Anya sees Anton just finished bathing and has not eaten breakfast from the hospital. It just so happened, he thought.
"Good morning, how are you?", greeted Anya cheerfully.
Anton smiled at Anya's arrival.
"It's okay, I just want to come, let's have breakfast together, I buy chicken porridge on the way. You must be tired of eating food from the hospital?"
Anya thrusts the chicken pulp that has been poured in a heat-resistant plastic bowl.
"Thank you very much, I must be very troublesome..."
Anya just smiled, then they started eating each other's food in silence.
After the meal, Anya began to state her plan.
"Anton, what if after you recover you stay in my contract first?"
Anton looks surprised to hear Anya's offer. And then Anton seemed to think hard.
