4. Meet Big Sister

"Ugh," Tukijo woke up and saw a luxury car stop beside him. Out came a beautiful, elegant woman with long flowing hair, accompanied by a bodyguard and her driver.

She is Ningsih, the genius woman who managed to grow her father's company to the top. Rumors stated that she had killed her father for obtaining an inheritance, thus being branded as a violent woman.

The woman took off her sunglasses and asked the driver, "Really, he lives here?"

"That's right, Miss. His name is Tukijo," answered Teguh (Ningsih's driver) while showing the young man's photo on his cellphone.

Ningsih just realized that in front of her there was a man lying on the road, he was trying to get up. The man was wearing a scout uniform. Beside him was an ontel bicycle leaning against a tree and a school bag on the basket.

Then Ningsih came to the man, then squatted down and stretched out his hand. "Want me to help?" bargained Ningsih.

Tukijo lifted his head to look at the woman. He felt the woman before him was very familiar. In the end, he grabbed Ningsih's outstretched hand, then stood up thanks to her.

Teguh, who was still holding his cell phone, saw the man in front of his employer was very similar to the photo on his cellphone.

"Miss!" shouted Teguh approaching Ningsih. He shows his cell phone. "See, Miss! He really looks like him."

Ningsih looked at Teguh's cellphone while glancing at Tukijo several times. "Is your name Tukijo and your mother Siti Hayati?" Ningsih asked.

"Yes," he answered. How could this lady know my name? Tukijo thought.

Without thinking, Ningsih immediately hugged him and said, "Finally, I found you."

"Aargh," groaned Tukijo feeling pain all over his body.

"Ah, sorry. I'm too happy to meet you," said Ningsih, releasing her hug.

Tukijo said, "Aren't you that woman ..."

"Who is that woman?" interrupted Ningsih quickly.

"A woman whose face is often featured in newspapers and media. According to rumors, the woman has killed her father for inheriting."

"Do you believe the rumors?"

"I don't know, I'm too busy with my problems."

"Your problem ..." Ningsih stopped speechless. He was holding Tukijo's cheek, which looked like it was just bone wrapped in skin. "Oh my, you are so skinny. Who tortured you like this?" Ningsih saw the bruises on Tukijo's face.

"Excuse me, why are you doing this to me? I don't even know you." Tukijo pushed Ningsih's hand away.

"You are my little brother, would it be wrong if I hugged you and watched you?" Ningsih sighed and said again, "I traveled all the way from Jakarta to Cilacap just to look for you, and it wasn't easy. I searched for you from every sub-district to sub-district, village to village, from street to street, alley to alley for a month and so on. Finally, I found you."

"What? Are you kidding me?" asked Tukijo doubtfully.

Ningsih pushed Tukijo's hair back. She saw his filthy face, dull and full of bruises.

"I'll explain later. Let's go to the hospital and treat your wound!" Ningsih grabbed Tukijo's wrist and pulled him into the car.

"Wait!" Tukijo restrained the woman. He reached into his trouser pocket. "Noooo! My one-week salary, it's sold out! Damn it!" Tukijo gritted his teeth and clenched his fists. "Just watch. I'll get back at you."

"What happened?" Ningsih asked.

"Ah, it's okay. It's just, I have to go home soon. Grandma is waiting for me, she must be worried about me."

"Then let's go home and meet your grandma!" said Ningsih. "Teguh, please buy medicine for him!"

Then Ningsih helped Tukijo walk to the house, while her bodyguard, Marno, brought Tukijo's bicycle.

Finally, they arrived at a house made of woven bamboo with wooden poles. "Tukijo!" exclaimed an old grandmother who was standing in front of the house. She is Tukijo's grandmother, Muhiroh.
