Zeno opened the refrigerator in the kitchen of Kevin's house, he was surprised because inside there was a lot of contents, even though Kevin only a few days stay at the hotel. But maybe it was his friend Arthur who filled the freezer.
Zeno still remembers in the parlour there was a refrigerator when he was ten years old, the mother of the parlour liked to make popsicles for children, but only once a week.
Given the difficult life in the parlor, Zeno came to mind.
If he already had a lot of money, he would send a lot of money to his orphanage. They also have to live well like Zeno.
Because Kevin has allowed Zeno to cook at home, Zeno will not hesitate to take out anything in the refrigerator.
With his smartphone, he looked for some simple recipes with ingredients in the refrigerator. After searching, Zeno decided to make balls of cheese, corn parchment and rice pecel.
Actually Zeno was also suddenly hungry after looking through the food photos, he also wanted to eat pecel. All the ingredients are complete there, even pecel seasoning is available.
Elsewhere, Kevin and Arthur discuss their work. Both are musicians or singers or boygroups from a large agency called Gems ent.
Kevin and Arthur are in a group called Diamonds, they debut since the second grade of High School, and their popularity can even skyrocket internationally. But lately they are walking alone with their respective projects.
Some continue their family business, some are busy being producers for other groups. Because Gems ent is originally from Korea there, so Arthur can get a project to make a song for the debut of a boygroup in the South Korean central agency.
The only one who is good at Korean is only Kevin, because he is indeed of Korean-Indonesian descent, more precisely Sundanese. Although Kevin is not very good at Sundanese, can understand people talking, but can not say it.
Suddenly in between their conversation, there were voices from the kitchen, then followed by the delicious aroma of appetizing food.
“The boy is cooking again like that, so laper..” muttered Arthur.
“She is very determined to cook, although I am not sure she can or hingga, but it looks like it can”, said Kevin.
“His face is not foreign Vin, like someone like that, but who is it?” ask Arthur.
Kevin flicked his shoulders, he also felt that Zeno's face was not unfamiliar, but he didn't know who.
“Already, we talked about that aja” said Kevin, but the speech and what happened was not synchronized at all, because his stomach suddenly sounded.
Arthur laughed at his sohib, “Hahaha, laper too right?”
“Diem!”
Those who could not help the hunger finally went to the kitchen, looking at Zeno who was cooking quietly.
The smell of appetizing cuisine is getting stronger from the kitchen.
“Bokah, cook what?” ask Arthur.
Zeno turned around, “Oh, you laper? Try to sit down first, just finish” replied Zeno.
Kevin and Arthur were sitting in front of a table that was available warm rice, vegetables, pecel seasoning, corn parchment.
NAH!
Zeno put the cheese balls on the table and sat down.
“I can not make many recipes, so if you do not like the village food, later I will learn more” said Zeno.
“No need, this is more than enough, this just looks so good, let's eat!” kevin said, he first took the rice, after that Arthur, then Zeno.
“This is so corn!” said Arthur.
“I didn't think you could actually cook Zen” Kevin said.
“I also learned to cook in my orphanage, although I can't cook much, but I love to cook!”
Although Zeno was taught a wide variety of dishes, but there was a constraint of ingredients that not all of them could get in the parlour, so Zeno could not cook many recipes.
But after this if Kevin allows, he will try to cook various recipes that he wants.
For materials, he could buy through the system alone, so as not to burden Kevin.
(You've cooked for two hungry people, each of them got a balance of 1,000,000)
Zeno flickered in confusion, he thought of a million to cook them, but it turned out to be a million each. After this, what can he do to increase the balance? He was in the territory of the rich, what good could he do for those who already had everything?
***
Kevin is very busy, but he has promised to help Zeno prepare for school. Zeno had said he wanted to pay for his own school, but Kevin was angry, he said he would pay.
Zeno was confused about what to do with Kevin, why is he so good? Zeno is so sad if only hitchhiking to him, he does not want to be like a parasite.
But Kevin gives Zeno the freedom to go wherever he wants.
So, this is where Zeno is, he's already in front of a big hape counter. People in nice clothes came to buy smart phones with those same ones as Zeno's.
Zeno himself has been wearing good clothes that he bought through the system, ordered a taxi online through the system, also wants to sell the same phone with his cellphone.
There was actually fear in Zeno's heart as well. What if the phone is fake? What if it turns out he was caught buying it at a 70% discount through the system? Zeno felt a lot of fear, but he had to dare to try.
“There can be helped, deck?” ask the shopkeeper.
“A-anu kak... I want to sell my phone, because I do not match” said Zeno, then he gave a paper bag containing a mobile phone box and all his letters.
“Alright, we will process it first, sister please sit there yes, can while looking around as well..”.
Zeno just nodded then sat down on the seat that the servant sister had pointed to. Zeno's eyes searched every inch of the store, he also listened to the buyer's conversation.
There is a girl who whines to buy an expensive cell phone for 14 million, but her mother does not have that much money. The girl nodded and came out of the store.
Zeno just shook his head, should the child be grateful to still have parents, even though his mother has also been willing to buy a cellphone, why should he incriminate his mother again?
“Adik, we have checked the phone, everything is original and still new yes deck, we will buy it 21 million” said the store waiter.
“Good sister.”
Zeno hugged his 21-million dollar bag tightly, now he was worried, afraid of being stolen by thugs again. At that time the money could be stolen because he was shocked and in shock, the thugs also pointed at the knife, Zeno became afraid.
Even though Zeno himself had won the city-level martial arts. Now after remembering she once resigned so she was ashamed as well.
“ZENO!”
DEG!
That sound? Udin Sir!
Zeno who had just come out of the store also turned to the origin of the voice, and sure enough, the figure of Udin who was smiling widely could be seen clearly. Not out of sense, Zeno immediately ran away from there.
“Zeno! Fucking kid! Don't run away you!”
Zeno ignored the remark, he just kept running until he entered a big mall, he saw a toy and doll shop, he hid there.
After he felt calmer, then he realized, “why did I run away, huh?”
Zeno can hit him if Zeno wants to.
“Hah, I'm so stupid!”
(You can do good by helping poor mothers who can't buy their children the dolls they want!)
Zeno immediately turned to a mother-mother with a female toddler who was crying loudly. The toddler wanted a big teddy bear. After Zeno approached and checked the price of the doll, it turned out to be 500 thousand rupiah. Zeno himself was surprised because it was so expensive for him.
Zeno who did not want to lose was looking for a hiding place to shop through the system.
There is a wide selection of similar dolls, Zeno chooses exactly what the child wants. Zeno was already outside the store, so back and forth he checked if the mother and child were out.
“Zeno, why are you here?”
Zeno turned around, looking at the person whose face was covered with a black mask.
“Who is it?” ask Zeno.
