Victim Feeling
Nechat
"Assalamu'alaikum Rish, have you woken up yet?"
"Wa'alaikumsalam Ma'am. It's just waking up"
"Happy birthday girl mom. May long life, healthy safe abroad, smooth recovery"
"Amiiin Ma'am, thank you for the prayer. Ma'am, the money that was sent wasn't enough to get Dad's treatment?"
"I'm talking about money, Rish. I'm calling you not to ask for money, but news. I'm worried, you never call first"
It felt like Airish's heart was piqued by his mother's words.
"Sorry Mom, I'm busy. Later I'll be diligent in Mother's calls"
"Yes, I get it. Rish, the mango in front of the fruit is bushy. I'm a parcel to Jakarta, huh!?"
"No need, Mom. There are many who sell"
"But I want Rish to send you to Jakarta. And also for Cahya. You said if you send a package from Jambi to Jakarta it only takes 3 days nyampe. Means Rish's safe, she's an immature pickin mom"
I didn't know that Airish and Cahya were over. Airish deliberately did not tell me to not worry about her son's heartbreak.
"Yes, I've just come here" said Airish relented.
"That's dong. Think of it as a birthday gift from Mom"
After Mother's wish was confirmed by Airish, the call ended. Airish rushed up from his bed even though he was still in a sleepy state but was already giggling because it was almost noon.
He has had plans since a few days ago to rest or clean up the apartment. But there are obstacles. And because today he has no activities that require him to go out, then he will spend his time with a set of cleaning tools such as brooms, mops, bells, and others.

Afternoon at 15:00
Airish had just finished putting the clothes into the closet. Then he watched tv on the long sofa after everything was sorted out. There was not yet a minute he straightened his waist suddenly his phone rang.
Airish is happy to mix sadly staring at the name that appears on her phone screen. He hurriedly shifted the green icon.
"Ha (Hello)-..."
"Happy birthday Rish, I miss you. I'm sorry for the way I've been, huh!?" His words cut Airish's greeting on the phone.
"Yes, thank you so much Put. I have the same fault. I'm sorry, because we are so far away. I thought you would stay away from me forever. I'm glad you remember my birthday"
"Don't be extended. I followed mewek. Uh, what do you want from me?"
"Do not bother, I already big just need a comfortable life, a calm heart, not chaotic thoughts are enough, do not need gifts"
"You are an adult hahaha. Put, Risky's getting married. He's confused whether to invite you or not"
"He's really looking for a wife, huh!? I'm so sick of people as good as him"
"Yes, he already almost wants 30 Rish time to play games"
"Yes, but unfortunately I was at that time why waste him"
"Rish, it's because you guys aren't a match. No, don't think about it anymore"
"Yes-yes. Uh, you main dong here. But I'm done here, don't come to make sure"
"Lo actually ngundang me there what do not forbid me there?"
"Hahaha, ceileh is the doang ngambek. Yeah, take your own snacks but, yeah!?"
"Hahaha, okay. Ntar my malem there, all yak nginap. We haven't been together in a long time"
"Ready"

Three days later, the package from Mom reached Airish's apartment. When Airish received his package from the security guard, he was surprised by the large cardboard box that became his mango box.
As soon as the cardboard package opened, he was flabbergasted because it turned out that it contained not only mangoes but also banana chips in one jar. Banana chips made by his mother which is Airish's favorite snack. Every lebaran must make. No need to bother looking for the banana because behind the house there is a banana garden owned by his own father who takes care of.
Airish hurriedly contacted his mother to inform her that the package had reached Airish's hand.
"Mother, assalamu'alaikum"
"Wa'alaikumsalam Rish's. What was? Why call?"
"Well, yesterday asked me to call on the phone instead of asking why"
"Perhaps you're doing something there, Rish"
"No, ma'am, I want to tell you this is your safe package. The banana chips bonus I ate too"
"Alhamdulillah Rish. Have you checked yet? It's still good, is it rotting?"
"There are some that mature, ma'am, maybe because the dicardus will evaporate. The rest is all good"
"Yes good at that. Rish, matiin first yes I want yasinan to the house Cik Una (neighbor next door)"
"Yes Mom. Assalamu'alaikum"
"Wa'alaikumsalam"
Airish moved the mango into the basin. The one that is still raw he put at the bottom while the one that is ripe he is located at the top. And the one that rots, he immediately throws away. Hm? That decayed? Yes, some are rotting, but Airish didn't tell his mother.
Airish who receives too many mangoes, certainly can not afford to spend it alone. Especially since the beginning his mother intended to give to Cahya as well, but it is impossible that Airish gave the mango to Cahya, and he had thought to whom he would share the mango.

Time after time passed, Airish had just returned from the premiere of the film, which was the script he had written. As always, everywhere must be taken by taxi online.
At about 12 pm he arrived at his apartment, then rushed to clean up. After his body was fresh, he also played mobile phones in bed because he was not sleepy.

A message came in from an account he didn't know on his Instagram app.
Aya0809
Assalamu'alaikum Rish's. How are you doing? I saw you cross in Kokas😊.
"Huh? Aya DM (Direct Message) me?" So said Airish who did not expect to be contacted by Cahya. Suddenly a sense of keGeeRan arises in him, but Airish is wise enough to choose not to reply to the message of Cahya.
