"Oh my God!" Tukijo kept his face away from Tuti. "I have to find a way to escape," he muttered thoughtfully.The entrance bell rang, but because there was no flag ceremony, one hour of lessons was free.Tukijo finds it difficult to face Tuti. Incidentally the entrance bell rang could be used as an excuse by him. He saw to the right of Tuti there was a gap."Sorry, the bell is already in. I have to go to class." Tukijo deftly took a step back and then moved to Tuti's right side, then avoided Ipul who was behind Tuti.Tukijo managed to get past Udin and his gang and then he ran down the corridor in front of the teacher's room to the paved road. Then he turned east towards the classroom by taking a detour through the paved road that runs along the XII Social Sciences class."Asep! Block him from behind the music room!" Udin's command.Asep is the fastest among them. He swiftly ran, followed by Udin, Ipul, and Tuti.Tukijo heard Udin's words faintly. He turned to the west of class XII Soc
Five minutes before Tukijo entered the classroom."TUKIJO!!! Bastard! Where's that kid? Even though the bell is already in, why hasn't he come yet?!" shouted Cecep nagging himself in front of the blackboard."Calm down Bro ... calm down ... I'm sure he will come soon. We can teach him a lesson during the break," said Sugeng.Sugeng is a friend of Cecep's gang and also Tiyem. This kid was thin, but strong like the boxer Chris John, his face was very similar to him.Beside that, Markonah was sitting dreaming. She put her elbows on the table and rested her chin on her palms."Does Tukijo have other things to do? It's been a long time ... there's no way he's lost, right?" she muttered.Then Markonah glanced at Udin's seat, there was only a black bag propped on the back of his chair. She hadn't seen him since returning to class either."This child too. Unlike usual, the bell has rung, but it's still wandering," whispered Markonah.Not long after, Udin came with a frown on his face. He walk
Incidentally, Tukijo's shoelaces came off, so he accidentally avoided the blow by crouching down. Though he intends to repair his shoelaces. Who would have thought luck was on his side.The one who was about to hit Tukijo lost his balance. At first, he mustered all of his energy into his fists, so that his punch could instantly knock Tukijo down in one hit. Unfortunately, his punch didn't hit the target, his strong force caused him to slip into the front pole of class XII Natural Sciences 1. He felt dizzy, his body staggered like a drunk person. Just as he was about to fall, his feet accidentally kicked a plastic trash can under the pole.Wuuuush!The trash can soared all the way to the front of class XII Natural Sciences 2. At the same time, Udin had just left his class. He didn't see, there was a trash can flying above him. Suddenly ...Bruuuk!The trash can landed on Udin's head upside down. The rest of the rotting rice wraps lodged in Udin's hair. All kinds of garbage were poured
"Buy a drink for me now!" shouted Cecep.Tukijo felt goosebumps hearing his screams. He immediately went to the canteen to buy a drink.While on the doorstep of the classroom, Tukijo collided with Udin. Both of them fell. Udin immediately got up, his eyes bulging out to ambush Tukijo. At that time, Udin was soaking wet himself, so that he slipped and fell down right in front of Tukijo's feet."Buahahahaha ...," laughed classmates who witnessed Udin's performance."Pffft, your life is so pathetic!" Tukijo mocked Udin.The sentence that Udin said to Tukijo a few days ago, has now been returned to him.Then Tukijo went to the canteen without paying any attention to Udin. His clothes were a little wet, because it was hit by Udin's very wet clothes....The bell rang and all the students entered the classroom for the next lesson."Children who are picket today, please take the textbooks from the library, okay?" ordered Mrs. Maria (biology teacher)."Cecep, you're not picketed yet, right? P
"Wait Markonah!" Tukijo rushed to tidy up his book."Sorry for today, really sorry!" said Tukijo to Maemunah. Then he ran after Markonah until he was in front of class XII Natural Sciences 4, finally he managed to catch up."She's that beautiful, isn't she? Until you can't take her eyes off of her," quipped Markonah with a sour face."Who do you mean?" asked Tukijo."Maemunah. You don't know, even though she's popular," said Markonah."Oh, so her name is Maemunah. Yes, she is beautiful, but you are more beautiful," said Tukijo with an innocent face."What? What did you say?" asked Markonah to be sure."I said you are more beautiful, Markonah," whispered Tukijo in Markonah's ear."Ish ... rigmarole!" Markonah entered the classroom with brisk steps towards her seat. She carried a pile of textbooks with her.Thump ... thump ....Her heartbeat made Markonah nervous and awkward.Tukijo tilted his head as he watched Markonah put a pile of textbooks on her desk."Hey! Aren't we supposed to s
On the second break, Tukijo was relieved of his duties by Cecep because the boy, reportedly will hold a press conference with the pedicab gang class XII Natural Sciences 2, XII Natural Sciences 4, XII Social Sciences 2 and XII Social Sciences 1.The pedicab gang is a group of young people who gather in one place by riding a rickshaw. Their job is to surround the compound in search of prey, especially weak children.Cecep as the leader of the pedicab gang, is highly respected by its members. He held a press conference in class XII Social Sciences 1."Next week, we will hold a massive burglary at Sampang Market. Those who are not present, will..." Cecep moved his hands around his neck, from left to right with his fingers together."I have a Futsal match, maybe a bit late," said Trisno."Haish! Just tell me, you want to have an affair with Maemunah, right?" Tiyem quipped sullenly."Oops, don't be angry... I was really invited to a match with the Sampang children, and the stakes were pret
"Stop stupid!" shouted Udin."Two...." Tukijo continued counting."Stop being stupid! Damn it!" Udin's wrath."Three ....""Noooooooooooooo!" Udin shouted, unable to stop Tukijo.Buaak!Markonah hit Udin's ass with a broom handle, while Tukijo pulled his hand away. Udin was thrown by Tukijo's tug until his face hit the wall."Aaaaaaaaargh! My faceeeeeee! He scurried out of the classroom holding his face and buttocks.Suddenly, he remembered something and went back into the classroom."Damn Tukijo! Wait for my retaliation!" snarled Udin pointed his finger at Tukijo. Then he left the class again to the School Health Unit.In class, Tukijo and Markonah along with the class XII Natural Sciences 2 students who saw Udin's excitement, burst out laughing. The commotion ended when they heard the doorbell ring. Everyone returned to their respective seats....After school, Tukijo chased Markonah, who was almost past the front of the cooperative."Markonah!" call Tukijo."What's wrong, Tukijo?" s
30 minutes before Tukijo came home.Ningsih and Muhiroh were on their way back home. They had just shopped at the greengrocer to make a lunch menu. On the way, they met Budi, Ucup, and Soib."Eh, this is... Tukijo's grandmother!" show Budi."Wow ... woah, who is this? That's my type." Ucup turned to look at Ningsih.Ningsih just silently narrowed her eyes and pursed her lips."Hello beautiful girl, how about you come and play with us. We will let this old granny go unharmed," said Soib."You stupid child! No manners at all to parents!" shouted Muhiroh hitting Soib with the purple eggplant she was carrying."Ouch! Old granny smells of frankincense, get out of the way!" Soib pushed Muhiroh. Luckily, Ningsih was nimble, she swiftly caught Tukijo's grandmother who was about to fall.Ningsih thought that Grandma's safety was more important. He chose to go with Budi and his friends."Don't worry, Grandma. I will teach them a lesson," Ningsih whispered in Muhiroh's ear. "If Tukijo comes home
"If I say yes, neither you nor Tukijo will have any evidence to sue me. Poor Tukijo will still lose his job. I want to see how he lives in the future," said Udin, grinning."Buahahahaa." Cecep, who knew the fact that Tukijo was a conglomerate, heard Udin's words and made him laugh."Oh, so you were the culprit, Udin?" Tukijo stepped over to Udin and Markonah.Udin turned his face sourly. He didn't say a word to answer Tukijo's question. "Heh, you think I will open my mouth in front of you?" he muttered gritting his teeth."Hey! Din! Din! Din! Din! Haha, it's like the sound of a horn," joked Cecep. "It's better if you just give up. You're jealous, right, because Markonah is closer to Tukijo. Moreover, our classmates, including me, have always been close to Tukijo lately, which will definitely make your heart hotter. Haha," he said defending Tukijo.It's true what Cecep said. When he saw Tukijo close to Markonah, Udin's heart felt like it was burning, his head was boiling, plus the clas
Tukijo was silent for a moment. Then, he went out to see who was talking. However, the boy did not find anyone in front of the class."What's wrong Jo?" Cecep asked."Ah, it's nothing. I thought someone called me," he explained, scratching his head."Hurry up, Jo! There's only one line left! In five minutes the teacher will enter class," shouted Sutrisno, hoping that Tukijo would quickly finish discussing the problem."Okay, I am sorry." Tukijo closed the classroom door again and took a marker to continue his discussion on the blackboard. He explained formula after formula until the friends in front of him really understood.3 minutes later.Cheklik!Someone opened the classroom door. Behind the door, a man was seen wearing a green and brown service suit carrying a black bag on his shoulder. He is Mr. Fuad (Mathematics Teacher). "Wow! Are you guys still studying?" he said."Yes Mr." Tukijo smiled with a slight bow."Uh, you're from science class, right?" asked Mr. Fuad."That's right
Finally, the four people were temporarily detained by the police. Tukijo followed Marno to the Pricilia Medical Center Hospital followed by Ningsih, while village head and the others visited Joko's base to seek clarity.At the hospital, Tukijo felt sorry for the disaster that had befallen Agus. Agus looks helpless. The business he started for years when he was 20 years old has come to an end."Big Bro Agus!" Tukijo scolded, patting Agus's shoulder, who was looking down to mourn his fate.The man turned his head, his face looked tired with puffy eye bags. "What's wrong Jo?" he answered quietly.Tukijo sat beside him. Then he took a thick brown envelope from his pocket and held it in Agus's hand. "Here, Sir, for capital back for your business."Agus received the envelope, then opened its contents. How surprised the man was to see a thick stack of hundreds of thousands of bills inside. "This... is a lot Jo!""Just accept it, it's all for you, Sir. Actually, you already knew my identity fr
"Stop sir!" Tukijo exclaimed suddenly.Chekeeeet!The driver stepped on the brakes to stop the car at the Mojing intersection."Oh my gosh! Come on Jo, come down quickly!" said Ningsih seeing the fire devouring Mas Agus Restaurant.There, Marno was seen carrying Agus out of the smoke of the rising fire. The man on Marno's back was unconscious with a slight burn on his arm.Ningsih motioned for Marno to get into the CarGer car carrying Agus. "Sir, please take them to the nearest hospital. IMMEDIATELY!" The woman handed over three hundred thousand bills.Tukijo realized that Markonah and her father were at the scene helping to put out the fire. "Oh yes! Big Sis! What will happen if Markonah meets—." Tukijo turned his head and didn't find Ningsih beside him. His Sister disappeared as if she had been swallowed by the earth."Oh! Where are you going, Big Sister?" he muttered while looking for the woman. "Even though you were here, did you go with Big Bro Marno? But it doesn't seem like it,
"Come on in and treat your wounds!" Ningsih grabbed Tukijo's hand and dragged him inside.How happy Sugeng's heart was when he met the idol. His eyes remained fixed on the woman without blinking at all.Without Sugeng realizing it, he stepped out following Ningsih and Tukijo."I'm sorry, Big Sister," said Tukijo, stopping."Oh, I saw Tukijo with Markonah earlier. Maybe he found it difficult to contact you, because that girl was there, Lady," interrupted Sugeng."Oh, so that's because she's there?" Ningsih asked.Tukijo nodded shyly."Aaaaaaaargh!" Suddenly a scream was heard."That's Cecep's father!" said Sugeng, immediately looking for the source of the voice.Tukijo followed Sugeng. This time he was the one who pulled and took his sister by the hand."Hey, you have to treat your wounds first." Ningsih restrains Tukijo."I'm fine, Big Sis, I just get trampled on by skinny people. Haha," answered Tukijo lightly with a little laugh."Really?" Ningsih's eyes were worried."Yes," he said
After school, after the kids had dispersed, Cecep lay down on the floor in class XII Social Sciences 1 to gather with his gang. The boy thought, maybe it was time for him to stop from the world of bullying. His mind was racing, if Tukijo's offer was true, of course he would prefer the peaceful path.For the past few years, three years or less five months to be exact, since Cecep entered high school, he started carrying out the profession of being a boy who likes to ask for money by force. At first, he was forced to take up this profession to pay school fees. His father was a sickly pedicab driver, while his mother was just a household assistant. The salary she earned was only enough for his father's treatment. Cecep was not one of the children who excelled so he could not get a scholarship. He was just a child who was lucky enough to enter his favorite high school with a below average IQ.The boy started forming gangs when he was in eleventh grade. At that time, the gang only consisted
"Oh, Young Mas—...""Shh." Tukijo interrupted Marno's words and indicated that there was someone behind him. Marno nodded."What happened to Mas Agus Restaurant, Bro?" Tukijo asked."Earlier, several people suddenly came. They were causing trouble when the restaurant was busy. As a result, because of their actions, the visitors were afraid," he explained."Then, where is Mas Agus?" Tukijo asked."Mas Agus suspects that this is the work of his rival, namely Joko, the meatball seller who is in front of the KUD Building. He went to that person and asked him to compete fairly," explained Marno."Alone?" said Tukijo in a slightly high tone."Ah, yes... my goodness. I didn't think something could happen to him." Marno put down the broom he was holding and hurried away with Tukijo to catch up with Agus."Jo, I'll come with you, please..." asked Markonah."No, Markonah," said Tukijo.Markonah pouted because she felt she was considered weak."Eh, okay, come on!" Finally Tukijo was forced to agr
"Of course I'm serious," said Tukijo folding his arms. "You just have to say whether you agree or not.""I agree!" Sutrisno exclaimed."I agree too!""Agree."Finally, all the members of the Pedicab Gang agreed to Tukijo's offer."Okay! Then, I will make a letter of agreement," said Tukijo. "Take this! I have money left over from paying for the meal earlier." He gave a fistful of nine hundred thousand rupiah into Cecep's hand."This... what is it for, Jo?" Cecep asked."That's as a down payment to prove that I'm not playing around," he answered. "You can divide it equally among all your members."Actually, Tukijo just wanted to test Cecep, whether he really deserved to be trusted as a leader. If he is not a fair person, of course the boy will make a lot of profit for himself.However, Tukijo actually saw Cecep distributing the money without hesitation. Each child gets fifty thousand rupiah. In the past, Tukijo thought that Cecep was a person who liked to behave in an arbitrary manner.
"Why, Jo?" Tiyem asked."Oh, it's okay, Tiyem. It's just that later I will have a good idea for the welfare of your gang," said Tukijo. Finally, he still took the mendoan that was in front of him. "Before Cecep pays, I have to go before him," thought Tukijo."Gang welfare? What idea?" asked Tiyem tilting her head."Yes, I'll tell you later," answered Tukijo.When Tukijo was looking at the class XII corridor, he accidentally came across two brothers Jono and Joni following Markonah behind her.Tukijo got up and walked over to Mrs. Badrun. "Ma'am, how much did everyone pay in total?" Tukijo asked in a whisper."Three hundred and thirty-three thousand, boy..." answered Mrs. Badrun.Tukijo took out three hundred and fifty thousand in cash and gave it to Mrs. Badrun. "Here ma'am, just take the change.""Thank you very much, boy," said Mrs. Badrun smiling."You're welcome, ma'am," replied Tukijo.Then the boy left the canteen. "Cep, I'll go to class first okay ...." Tukijo patted Cecep on th
