Victimizing Yourself for Love
Part*38's

Tora is very upset right now. He looked so upset that there was no appetite for lunch. How not? He had gone through fruit markets, traditional markets, and whatever markets he could see, he stopped by. But unfortunately, the village mango he wanted did not find any fruit.

While on social media, he also did not get any results. He only gets advice from social media users to search the market. While some are missing, if he will not find the mango he is looking for because it is not the season. That's what makes him dizzy and upset half to death.

"Oh my God .. Help me. How can I not get what Tami wants. This is his first cravings again. Ahg!"

Tora finally chose to go home after an increasingly late afternoon. He canceled his intention to come to his parents' house because of a village mango problem that he did not find.

"Where is Tora? Is there any good news about kampung mango that non Tami asks for?" ask bi Siah when she sees her face as she sits for a few minutes in the living room.

"No good news, bik. I still can't find what Tami wants. Ah, it's too hard to find that fruit, bik."

"Stay in spirit, Den. Because what non Tami wants is a request from prospective children den Tora in the womb. Pregnant people cravings, it's a rather strange thing, Den. Sometimes, there is also the impossible until it does not occur to our minds this normal person. However, it must be obtained. He said, if he doesn't get it, his son will be that kind of light."

"ah! Oh my God .. Don't make me afraid, bi Siah. Uh ... I hope I get what Tami wants. Nah! Don't hope, but rather, I have to get what Tami wants, bik."

At night, Tora could not sleep just because the mango village that Tami wanted could not be obtained. He even searched for the mango with an announcement in the hope that someone would come to help.

However, even until midnight there was no result of the effort he made. The announcement that he spread was not a single response from the people who saw. Hope is back.

But, when Tora wanted to close her device, someone responded to the announcement.

The response from the person he did not know made his heart suddenly feel excited again.

*You're looking for a mango village huh, mas Tora? If you want, just come to my house in the morning.*

That was the sound of a response from a person who absolutely did not Tora know who. Because, that person had no identity at all. No name, no profile picture on his account.

Tora was silent for a moment while rereading the words that the person had sent her. His heart was unsure of what the man was saying. Understandably, social media sometimes makes people always feel anxious about what people we do not recognize say. Moreover, the person we do not know the identity of the account owner.

*Is what you are saying true? Yes, I am looking for a mango. And I need it most. Please don't play games with me, because I really expect what I'm looking for now.*

*You take it easy, Tora. I am not a person who likes to lie to others. Especially here for the announcement. Anybody can enter anyone. And where there are people who can play around here, mas.*

*Alright. I'm trying to believe what you're saying. Send your full address now. Tomorrow morning I'll come to your place. Remember one thing! If you are proven to play tricks on me, then I will not hesitate to report you to the authorities. You know for yourself what I mean.*

The guy then sends a laughing emoji to Tora. Then, he sent me his full address. Tora was silent for a moment looking at that address. He felt like he knew where the address that person had sent was. But, because the pleasure and tiredness had fused, he no longer paid any heed to what he was thinking. He instantly laid himself on the soft mattress he had with a sweet smile that continued to expand.

Early in the morning, before breakfast, Tora had already left the house. He did not have time for breakfast because he could not wait to find mango village in the house of people he did not know who.

When Tami comes out of the room, she feels that something is awkward when she does not find Tora at the dinner table. Because normally, Tora was already at the dining table when she came out of the room after the morning shower.

"Bi Siah, where's Tora? How come it hasn't come down yet?"

"Den Tora hasn't come down yet, Non Tami. But, he's been going out since ten minutes ago."

"Go? How come it's not breakfast?"

"He's in a hurry, non. He said, breakfast outside."

"Where's he going so fast?" Tami spoke in a small tone while continuing to pay attention to the food on the table.

Meanwhile, Tora had already arrived at the address she wanted to go to. A beautiful two-story house in the middle of an elite complex of bustling cities. However, the house looked quite deserted like there were no occupants now. But, the view of the house is still very beautiful with the garden and the surrounding of the house that is completely clean well maintained.

Tora looked at the house for a while. There was a little bit of uncertainty as well as a rather heavy heart for him to enter the courtyard of the house. But, for the sake of the village mango he was looking for, he forced his foot to step straight inside.

Suddenly, a middle-aged man came up to him.

"Who are you looking for, mom?" asked the man while watching Tora from top to bottom carefully.

"Search ... homeowners. Is the father the owner of this house?"

The man did not answer directly. He looked back at Tora again in the same way.

"Why look for a home owner? What's the need?"

"Personal needs. Owner of the house or not?" tora asked began to get annoyed with the unfriendly attitude of the middle-aged man who was in front of her now.

Not yet had the man answer Tora's words, a voice heard someone from behind.

"If anyone comes to see me, take him directly to the back garden, Mr. Mamat. No need to be interrogated. He's my guest. I've made a deal before."

The voice sounded quite familiar in Tora's ears. But he didn't want to guess. He was afraid that what he guessed would be wrong.
