In the hot sun, a man was resting under an acacia tree. With a face full of sweat, he sat on a motor matic while staring at the passing vehicle around.
Tired, one word that best describes his current state. Since morning he drove to and fro delivering customer food. Not infrequently he gets scolding because it is not on time. How else, sometimes orders are crowded and the direction is opposite. While she was a courier by herself.
"It's okay, isn't it, break a break? I swear, I'm really tired today" murmured the man who bears the name Fabian Barra Akalanka.
She's a food courier at Wendy's Resto. He is only 24 years old, but very persistent and unyielding. With hair that was left to extend until it touched the neck, his face looked beautiful even though not perfectly maintained.
When Fabian was still busy wiping the sweat, suddenly his phone rang, there was a notification of incoming messages. Then, Fabian picked it up and wanted to read the message.
"Huh? What'sthis?"
Fabian surprised. The reason, the notification just now is not a message, but a foreign application that appears from nowhere. All this time, Fabian had never downloaded it. Ah, let alone downloading, just know the name is new now.
"Good luck in completing the mission. You deserve a Harley Davidson Breakout motorcycle. Gifts will be sent after you're done." Fabian read the notifications on his new app—application SKAK.
"This is what the hell, haphazardly giving hope. I don't know what my life is" Fabian grumbled.
"It's a con man's time, huh? But, what good is my fraud. Account no balance, HP also just copied wifi. Your wrong target." Fabian continued to grumble, even while glaring at the mobile phone.
"Eh .. delete it. How to know he's after life. Gini gini I also want to live. Not married, where ready to die," continued Fabian while wiping the uninstalled button.
However, this action has no effect. Over and over again Fabian deleted it, the app still exists.
"It's error again, asem. Don't know what I'm doing anymore, it's all broken. How many years you've been my friend, can't really be invited to compromise" Fabian told his phone.
Fabian is not a rich man, even quite worthy of being called poor. Let alone a house or a luxury car, a motorbike butut only he does not have. What he's bringing in now is Wendy—'s motorbike, the owner of the restaurant where he works. The only valuables that Fabian has are old phones from 2017, and now it's 2022.
Moments later, Fabian gets a call from a Keynara— co-worker at a restaurant. The girl informed him that there were other orders to be delivered immediately. Inevitably Fabian ended his break and rushed back to the restaurant. For a while, he forgot the foreign app that made his phone error.
Fabian continued to work until the afternoon and went home at exactly five. Although the restaurant has not closed, Fabian came home early because delivery service is only valid during the day.
____________
The twilight had not been long since extinguished, Fabian was still sitting in the corner of the room enjoying a cup of black coffee. She had not taken a bath, even her hairpins were left in a mess without being restyled. He was too tired and wanted to rest for a while before cleaning himself up.
"Work has been occupied, but money only through prayer. If you think about when it's rich, it's been poor mulu." Fabian complained while grabbing the coffee cup.
When his lips almost sipped the warm drink, suddenly the door was knocked from the outside. Fabian frowned and then peeked out from behind the window. In the rented yard parked a truck with a closed tub, then right in front of the door were two men dressed all in black.
"Who are they? It looks like a debt collector, but I have no debt. Just two thousand rupiah to Nara this afternoon, it is impossible to be charged in this way. He's still sane" Fabian said without moving out the window.
"Excuse me!" The person outside called out again while knocking on the door.
With no other choice, Fabian finally stepped out and met the man. His heart was beating irregularly, Fabian was afraid something bad might happen.
"Is this really Mr Fabian Barra Akalanka's house?" ask the stranger when the door is wide open.
"Yes, Fabian happened to be me. What's up, sir?" Fabian asked back.
"Include us from the SKAK team. We're here to deliver the gift you claimed last afternoon. Congratulations, you deserve one unit of Harley Davidson Breakout motor." The person explained while pointing towards the truck.
Fabian was stunned. From inside the truck were two people dressed in black. They took down Harley's bike and brought it to Fabian's front.
"This ... is this true for me? But I didn't buy. I don't want to get into debt, I can't afford it" Fabian protested.
"It's not a debt, it's a gift. You are selected as a SKAK participant. If you successfully complete one mission, then you deserve a reward. You'll be a billionaire if you manage to conquer all missions."
Fabian was more astonished, it felt like fantasy novels full of imagination. However, when he pinched his arm, Fabian felt pain. That is, all of this is real.
"This is the proof of ownership, please keep it well!" connect the man.
"I still don't understand" Fabian muttered between shock and confusion.
"Follow the flow, sir. Every day SKAK will give you directions. No need to worry because the mission given does not exceed the ability limit. Good luck, may you be the next billionaire."
Without explaining the details, the people who claimed to be from the CHECK team immediately left. They left Fabian still unmoved in his place.
A few minutes later, Fabian regained his senses and immediately stared at the letters in his grasp. Sure enough, his name is listed there.
"So now ... This bike is really mine?" Fabian still can't believe it.
Shortly after, Fabian ran into the room with the keys to the motorbike and the ownership papers. Then, he was browsing about the SKAK application. Unfortunately, there is no single article that discusses the application. In fact, when Fabian searched on the app's download spot, SKAK's name was nowhere to be found. The same thing happened when Fabian found out through social media, SKAK remains a foreign name.
"What the hell is this?" Fabian was curious. Then, he opened the CHECK and fiddled with it.
Although long enough to find information, but the results remain nil. Fabian failed to know the origin and details of the SKAK application. Eventually, Fabian gave up and just tried to understand the content of the app.
Fabian rubbed each icon and soon found a bright spot. Fabian managed to find out the length of SKAK, as well as the reason why he was selected as a participant.
"So the reason___"
SKAK is an Anti-Poverty Luck System. Conquer missions in SKAK and you will be the next billionaire.
"Crazy! The young man is sad he said, but .. there is a point too, "murm Fabian.
While exhaling violently, Fabian put down his phone and lay down on the bed. He stared at the ceiling of the room while recalling the unfortunate event that happened three days ago.
At that time, Fabian was working as usual. However, since the restaurant had just opened, Fabian had not yet sent any food. He helped his partner wipe the glass and sweep the yard.
When Fabian and the others were still busy, suddenly there was a luxury car stopping in front of the restaurant. At first, Fabian thought it was a visitor, but it wasn't. The person who got out of that car was his girlfriend—Adara Vallerine. The girl came with Zayan Danial Bramantio—the second son of Ivander Bramantio—the owner of the largest industrial company in Jakarta City.
"Darling, how come you're here with him?" fabian asked when Adara had arrived before him.
Fabian glanced at Zayan with an unrelenting feeling. He wondered what was going on, why Adara had come with Zayan, when all this time they had not been involved in any cooperation. Even as far as Fabian knows, Adara is not too familiar with Zayan.
"Why indeed? You don't like it?" It was not Adara who said it, but Zayan.
Fabian was wrong. He felt pessimistic as he stared at Zayan from toe to head. He was just a food courier with a not-so-good-looking look, and again was currently carrying a rag and bucket. While Zayan, the man was the son of a big businessman. His workplace in a luxurious air-conditioned room with collared and tiered clothes. Even today, Zayan's appearance is very elegant and charismatic.
"It's not so, Mr. Zayan. I just___"
"Bi, we're breaking up. I don't want to go with you anymore!"
Adara's words like thunderbolt that struck right in the heart, very surprising and very painful. I don't know what the girl was thinking, why would she do it to Fabian. In fact, Fabian loved her very much, and the relationship they had been in had been going on for two years.
"Well, what do you mean?" asked Fabian anxiously.
"I mean very clearly, we broke up. I don't want to have a poor boyfriend like you, embarrassing, "hina Adara with his leisure. He didn't think about how much pain Fabian felt.
"We have been together for two years and our relationship has been comfortable. Why is this all of a sudden now, Dara?" Fabian still doesn't take it.
"Because I'm not stupid anymore. I was able to open my eyes and not get stuck in a parasitic relationship. I ... already have your replacement," replied Dara. He boasted a sweet smile while holding Zayan's friendly hand.
"Become, you and him___"
"Yes, we're dating" said Zayan. "Isn't it faster this way, than joining you?"
Fabian did not answer. He was still shocked and did not expect Adara would be that cruel.
"You got glass, right, at home? Once you see yourself, poor, poor, have no future, deserve to be with Adara? Look, she's a pretty girl, she's rich and has a career. Your dream is too high if you expect him to be your partner" Zayan continued.
Fabian. It was like landing a bogeman on Zayan's face, but the snooze was done because he realized that he was nobody. A blow can't end a criminal offense if the money's already spoken. No, Fabian won't make it hard on himself.
Fabian just looked at Adara with a sad look. Although there are many words that he wants to say, but his tongue is twisted and can not say. He just hoped, Adara changed her mind and came back like yesterday. Although he did not have comparable property, Fabian loved Adara very much.
"Where," whispered Fabian when for a long time no one spoke.
"I think it's all clear, Bi. We broke up and in the future there is no relationship anymore. I'm tired of you taking the road without eating well, even if I'll pay for it. I am bored every time shopping and buying you, I am sick of being embarrassed because I have an ugly and poor partner. So ... we broke up!" adara said without mercy.
"Eh, bad yeah. The same meal shopping even ask the girl."
"Not really happy, poor or pretentious to date the rich."
"Not knowing himself, thought of living a full life by eating love."
"Udah, let alone, kayak guys that don't pantes pity. It doesn't look cool either, throw it away. Defend the sure!"
Fabian is speechless. In addition to the spicy sentence from Adara, he also got blasphemy from some people who were there, including colleagues at the restaurant who had been considered friends.
"Because your business is done, now let's go, dear." Zayan embraces Adara's body and takes her in the car. Regardless of Fabian still flinching, they sped up and left Wendy's Resto.
The departure of Zayan and Adara did not dampen blasphemy against Fabian. No matter what their heart is made of, why easily laugh at the person who is hurt, as if it is a funny joke.
"Udah, don't beat them. The important thing is that you focus on work, rest assured that the road is always there for those who want to try. Even if Adara does not want to be with you, but that does not mean there is no other woman, right? Believe me, there will be someone who loves you sincerely, regardless of appearance or property," said Keynara—waiters at Wendy's Resto.
"Trust me, luck is always there. Life is fair enough, so .. you don't feel sad anymore, yes" Keynara said.
Fabian smiled wryly as he recalled the incident, unfortunate indeed his fate, betrayed and hurt by someone much loved.
"It's still a good thing there's Nara, try if not ... I'm really alone." Fabian got up and took a rough breath. "Crazy for people today, anything is valued by money. Used to be friends because I was Dara's boyfriend, after we broke up, uh on blasphemy. Basic, hypocritical faces," he continued.
A moment later, Fabian remembered the luck system he had not long ago. Then, Fabian again took his phone with ambition.
"I was insulted for being poor and he said this system would help me become a billionaire. I think I should quickly conquer the mission, so that later Dara and Zayan regret for insulting me." Fabian spoke with a big smile.
Highlight Fabian's eyes sparkled as the fingers continued to dance on the phone screen. However, a few seconds later he swallowed the disappointment. The missions in CHECK were only sent once a day, Fabian was unable to request it tonight. I don't want him to wait for tomorrow morning.
