Mirza along with her mother had finished with her affairs in a mall. Ten minutes ago Mirza and her mother ran out shopping for daily necessities and other necessities.
Now Mirza and her mother are stuffing her groceries into the trunk of the car.
After finishing preparing her groceries, Mirza and her mother decided to go home.
Brakes..
A car collided on the highway. Everyone there saw the incident. And they could see a woman with a head wound. And one of his sons who was seriously injured, though still conscious.
Mirza and her mother saw the incident. And how shocked when he saw that the one who had the accident was the neighbor where he used to live.
"Son Mirza!
"Mira!"
Mirza stared hatefully at the two humans.
Pingkan immediately stepped forward to help the mother and child, but Mirza suddenly shouted and asked her mother to retreat.
"Mama, stay away from them. We better get home now!"
Hearing the words and cries from his son made Pingkan surprised. And so do the people around him.
"Honey," said Pingkan who was already beside his son.
"We're going home now. I'm tired."
"We help them first. We'll take them to the hospital, "persuade Pingkan.
"Mama doesn't have to bother helping them. They are not our family. So why do we help them" Mirza replied.
Hearing the words from Mirza made Pingkan shocked. She did not expect that her son would say that.
Same with the people around him. They also did not think with the words of Mirza.
"Mama will help them first. They were once our neighbors."
"If you keep trying to help them, then I'll go far. Even from this world!"
Degs..
Pingkan instantly turned his body to look at the face of his only son. He had no idea why his son could talk like that. And Pingkan also did not understand why his son was reluctant to help his neighbor.
Mirza looked at the woman. He does not like if the woman is willing to advise him, even though he does not know the real problem.
"What did Auntie say? Those fellow humans should help each other?"
"Yes, Son!"
"Then Auntie said that if I didn't want to give help to others, then later if my mother and I had a disaster. No one's gonna help me and my mom, is that it?"
"Yes, like that. We live in this world there is a reciprocal" replied the woman.
"I'm telling you, Bi! And all of you!" shout Mirza. "No need to wait for tomorrow... Tomorrow and tomorrow my mother and I are in trouble. Because my mom and I have experienced it!" shout Mirza.
"You want to know what happened to my mom when my mom and I were living in a rented house. And that woman!" mirza shouted while pointing at the mother and child who were currently injured.
The people around him looked directly at Mirza.
"They are my neighbors. You want to know what that woman did?! My mother fell in the bathroom. My mother was unconscious. A lot of blood came out of my mother's head. I was scared and crying. Then I ran out of the house to ask the neighbors for help. Fifteen minutes I screamed. No one heard it. A few seconds later, one of the neighbors' houses opened. That house is that woman's house!" mirza shouted again pointing towards her former neighbor.
"I ran over to the woman and begged her to help my mother. It just so happens that the woman has a car. I begged her to help me get my mother to the hospital. Even I lay down before him. But my efforts have not borne fruit. The woman viciously kicked me. Even spit on me. Seeing the bad treatment from him I decided to go home. I wish my mom was okay."
Hearing the story of Mirza plus again when seeing Mirza who was crying made the woman become unbearable and feel guilty. So too with the others.
"His son was once my friend. We're good friends. I even helped him a lot, one of which was when he was gang-raped by complex children. If there were no me then. Maybe until this moment the woman has no more children alias dead. But what I got. Since that incident, his son has been hostile towards me and no longer wants to be friends with me. And worse, his son was actually friends with people who had been ganged up on him. Even her mother accused me of hurting her son!"
Everything again was shocked by Mirza when she heard the story about the boy from the woman.
Mirza looked at all the people around her and after that, Mirza looked back at the woman who was asking her questions.
"Now tell me. Do they still deserve help from me and my mother? My mother almost died because of that woman. As Auntie said we live in this world there is a reciprocal. And let's just say this is the reciprocity of the woman and her child. They did evil to me and my mother. Now I have done evil to them by not helping them. Impasse right?"
"Oh yes, one more! My mother and I used to have nothing so all my former neighbors used to look at me and my mother with disgusted looks. They asked me and my mother for help because they already knew who I was and who my real mother was. Even they were all shocked when they found out that my mother and I were from a wealthy family."
After saying that, Mirza immediately pulled her mother's hand to leave everyone behind. He did not want to stay there for long.
While Pingkan did not say a single word when he found out the reason for the son who did not want to give help to his neighbor first. Heart ache when it knows the truth. And Pingkan knew who his son was contacting when not a single neighbor provided any help. That man is Darel his nephew.
"I'm sorry, Mama, baby!" batin Pingkan cried.
He stared at the sad face of his son. His heart was really aching when he saw his son at this moment. He felt guilty for making his son come back to remember the sad incident.
