When the young man opened the door of his rented house, he found a woman standing in front of him carrying something like a boxed rice.

"Hello Andrew, i want to give you this box meal it was the last things he want to give you before he dies and i came here too becasue i heard that you didn't come to his funeral, you said you were on business" Said the woman.

"Yeah, sorry madam if I can't attend because i have to visiting my cousin who suddenly got sick yesterday afternoon." Andrew

"that's okay, eat this and please pray for William, Also thank you for being my son best friend."

"Yes ma'am. You're welcome." Andrew

The woman immediately left as soon as she handed over the rice box. Andrew looked at the contents of the rice box and he saw his favorite food, rice cooked in it.

"Wooh there is rice cooked, i must eat this quickly while the food is still warm." Andrew

Andrew POV

Hello, my name is Andrew Solikhin. I am an unemployed person who is looking for work every day.

Today I received a delivery of rice cooked from my best friend mother, William colt. He's been my best friend ever since since middle school and was separated in high school, then we met again at a middle school friend reunion.

The woman earlier was William mother who owned the rented house I lived in. The reason I can live in this rented house is because he offered this rented house to me when I said that I was ordered to go abroad by my parents.

William and I were the same age before he died, that is, we were both 26 years old. Even though william and I are the same age, our lives are quite different where william has become an established person at work and earns a steady salary. William also has a wife

While i still single.

Before Covid-19 spread in singapore, I was a translator and tour guide who can speak 7 languages, namely indonesia, English, Japanese, Dutch, French, Korean and Chinese. However, at this time I had to lose my job because I was laid off by the tour company where I worked, which was on the verge of going bankrupt.

Because of that I am currently an unemployed person who has a lot of money in my savings which I always use to invest in K-Pop agency stocks in Korea because I feel that the government's curfew will encourage people to seek entertainment from the internet. And this is evident from the K-Pop agency stocks that I invested in which continued to increase until I had a profit constraint of 4 times what I invested.

Now I'm not really worried about meeting my basic needs and secondary needs, but I need a permanent job so I can get a pension when I'm old.

By the way, William passed away 41 days ago because he was stricken with the Covid-19 virus. It's just that only my sister survived while he did not.
