Between Love and Corona
Must Fight!

After calling his mother, Moon slumped on the floor. She cried by hiding her face with both hands.

For anyone who is declared to be affected by this disease, it feels like fear, as well as the Moon. How not to be afraid? Every day the news on various national television dominated by the increase in Corona cases, the roar of ambulances that almost adorned the corner of the city with more frequent intensity, the number of casualties that fell one after another, the number of victims who fell one by one, it seems to be a separate scourge for humans including the Moon.

There is also no definitive cure for patients exposed to the virus, plus so many casualties that make the Moon even more mentally depressed.

"Don't leave a servant at a time like this, O Lord. Slave needs you. Heal the servant, and the servant will be healed. Only you, I beg you."

In the depths of his heart, the Moon prayed to God.

When he was truly stifled and fragile, his current backrest was the Lord of the Universe and the Owner of His Life. Intersecting physical contact with fellow humans alone cannot be, only God alone is the place to lean. He gave his whole life to the Khalik.

When the Moon was still dissolved in her grief, her phone rang again. Slowly the Moon opened the hand she had used to cover her face. His eyes moved and looked at the phone screen. The moon slightly frowned when it found the Star was calling him.

With a vibrating finger, the Moon swiped the green button on its phone screen.

"Yes .. hello Star. What's up?" the Moon says as soon as the call is connected. The girl spoke while holding her stuffing.

In the phone call, the star heard a sobbing as the Moon spoke. Carefully, the star tried to make a sound. "Moon .. You're okay, right? I heard from Tika just now" said the star who heard that the Moon was positive covid from Kartika.

The moon put one hand on her chest before speaking, intending to calm herself down. "Yes Star .. I'm positive."

Moon's tears rekindled as she admitted that she was positive for covid. Even at this time, one hand he put to cover his mouth so that the Star would not hear his cries.

However, the stars have a pretty sharp hearing, even from the phone, the Stars know that the Moon is crying right now.

"You can cry the Moon .. It's okay, cry. I'm there for you." said the Star sincerely.

Hearing the words of the Stars, sobs, cries, and moans came out of the Moon's mouth. "Aa. .. I'm afraid, Bin." those are the words the Moon put out in his talk.

While the Moon was silent, she gave the Moon time to cry first. It was certain that the Moon was very scared and sad at this moment, the Star could only give her ears. For the stars, tears are not always a sign of grief. Tears give me relief. The star only wants the Moon to cry, to shed her tears without holding her back.

"Month ... listen to me. Don't be afraid, you fight. Once you are scared, those fear signals will be sent to your brain. Until it makes you really scared and drop. Do not let your immunity down. Cry first, Moon. After that, don't be sad anymore. Must be happy, must be fought ya." said the star who is now encouraging the Moon.

The moon appears to nod its head. "However, I'm afraid, Bin.." I honestly admit.

"I know you're afraid, but we have God, right? Getting closer to God. He is close to people who break his heart. He has mercy on his servant. You have your family too. When you're sad, your parents will be much sadder, Moon." again Stars says various motivational sentences for Moon.

"Yes Bin .. I will fight all this. Thank you for motivating me." said Moon in a voice that sounded much calmer.

Stars are relieved when they hear the tone of the Moon. "What do you feel about the moon?"

"I just have a fever and a dry cough, Bin... My throat feels dry" said Moon.

The star seemed to nod its head hearing the complaints felt by the Moon. "Then where are you going next? Self-isolation at home or what?"

The moon shakes its head. "I still have to wait from the nearest Puskesmas, Bin. I have reported to the Covid Task Force also in my housing cluster. I was a little relieved because it had been almost a week my parents were in Gunung Kidul, in the house of Sewba. I wish you and your mom well and well. It's enough that I'm exposed to this virus." said Moon.

Hearing the story of the Moon, the Star felt sorry for his friend. In a difficult time like this, the Moon has to go through it alone at home. The star took the initiative to visit the Moon's house, although he would not meet face to face with the Moon.

Slowly, he entered his car and put earphones in his ears so that he could still communicate with the Moon. "What do you need for this month?" ask the stars to their friends.

The moon shook its head. "At home there are drugs for fever and cough, vitamins are also there coke." said Moon.

"Do you have any oxygen saturation tools?" ask Stars.

"Not yet .. I don't have." said the Moon which does not yet have an oxygen saturation device.

While driving his car, Bintang stopped by for a moment at the pharmacy he passed. He bought oxygen saturation gauges, an inhaler, and some vitamins for the Moon. The star intends to give it to the Moon.

After buying everything he needed, Bintang drove back to his car and headed to the Moon house. A few meters before the Moon house, apparently Covid Task Force was standing guard in front of the gate of the Moon house.

The star parked his car, then he walked right in front of the road visible from the Moon's room.

"You're in the Moon room?" ask the stars briefly.

"Yes .. I locked myself in my room." replied the Moon.

"Stand up the Moon, look out the window" he ordered the Moon to look out her window.

Slowly the Moon rose to her feet, she walked until now she was in front of the window of her room. His hand drew the pink curtain hanging over the window, and the Moon opened the window slowly. As his eyes looked at the residential street in front of his house, he caught the figure of a Star standing in a dark green bomber jacket with earphones in his ears. The man even waved his hand when he saw Moon open the window curtain of his room.

"Look, you're not alone Moon ... There I am here."
