Go home.

Go home.
Chapter 5



There I have a friend is Basyir, the first person I meet upon arrival


kota—not this capital, still in the provincial city.


Twenty years ago, drizzle down when four Basyir cars came home at eight p.m., with arms


rebated.


“We finally managed to master the Mother Market….


Kopong is finishing the rest, gagging


the mouth of the officers and journalists so that the incident does not occur


scattered everywhere. Kopong is a master at that, and


people just look at it like a fire and


rusuh ordinary” Basyir said enthusiastically, he did not care


even though his clothes and hair were dirty and disheveled.


“What are you doing today, Bujang? What is your duty


from Tauke?”


I nodded, not interested in discussing it.


“This what?” Basyir pointed at the astonishment of the thick books in the


on my bed.


I didn't answer.


“Since when has anyone in this house read a book?”


I swallowed spit.


Basyir laughed, finally he could guess what


happens, “We've been doing all day outside


go, Bujang. Beating a bunch of market goons


behavior, you're just told to read.”


Shit, I glared at Basyir who


laughing at me.


“I shower, Bujang. Studying your diligent.” Basyr


he waved his hand, returning to his room.


I exhaled an upset breath.


At that time I did not understand what the truth was


being prepared by Tauke, it's only been a few years


then, I realized it. Tauke has a plan


large. Touke is fifty years old, he's


looking at the glorious future of the Tong Family,


he had prepared a plan for our family not to


only to be a ruler in the province.


A plan I didn't like at the time.


A week is just crammed with books given


Frans, I decided to meet him in the study


main building. I said I'd stop reading


those books.


“You should go to school, Bujang.” Tauke looked at me


angry, his face does not like.


I'm shaking.


“You must go to school, BACHELOR!!” Tauke snapped at me.


My intention is solid. I didn't come this far to


big city for school. I don't kill


**** the giant is only to be asked to


learn.


“What do you really want?” Towkay


loosened his screams, trying a little


restrained, tidying up the papers he was on


“I want to be like my Father first.”


"Become your Father? So what works


Shahdan get from being a bouncer?


His legs are paralyzed. You want to be paralyzed


like him, huh?”


I'm silent.


“The future of the Tong Family is not in the hands of people who are good at fighting. The future of this family


it's in people's hands


the clever. We are not going to constantly just be a keroco in a black world.


Just slashing, blackmailing, smuggling stuff. It's dirty business. "


"We will become bigger


of it all, and to run it, I need


smart man. That's called vision, seeing time


fore. You should go to school as high as possible. Let


it was Basyir, who indeed had no brains to


chewing on school, who became a handyman


bludgeons. You're not.”


I keep shaking.


"Good, Bujang! Nonsense of being like a father


you're. Looky. I wanted to be for years


like my father used to be, Big Tauke before. Straight away


what do I get after being him? In this town


it's just that other families don't respect me, we just


considered a lowly family."


" Don't ask on the island


seberang, the capital, they just squinted their eyes


doesn't matter. We are considered the same as the Market thugs


The mother we conquered. Not classy. Cheapness.”


I'm staying quiet.


“You should go to school, Bujang. Frans will be


teach you privately in this house so you can


catch up with class. You're not going to waste your smart talent. You should have been in class


one SMA, Bujang. You're fifteen years old—”


“I don't want.” I cut.


Big Tauke snorted, if only I were someone else,


perhaps he had already struck mercilessly.


"


Alright…. Alright, Bujang! I know, reading a book


that's not exciting. While every morning you just


listen to the great stories of Basyir and the youth


another at the long table at breakfast. Make you just


so the banter. Alright, BACHELOR! I know, I know,


beating up other people is more exciting, more challenging.


Tonight, you come with me, I'll give you what


which you want. You heard, huh?”


The conversation ended quickly. I think I have been


getting what I want, Tauke relented, he said,


until nightfall, it turned out the opposite.
