Pursued by the Love of Jengkol Children

Hospitalized

A few days later. Raka and her mother went to the village to make a pilgrimage to her grandfather's grave there. Approximately two hours drive, Raka riding his matic motorbike along with his mother. When they got there, Raka and her mother went straight to their old house at the end of the village.

Now, the house they used to live in, is now occupied by a couple who migrated to the area, along with their young children, Because Raka and her mother no longer live there, he said, sophia's mother allowed the couple to live there without having to rent. Sophia's mother simply asked them to take care of the house.

After taking a short rest at home, Raka and her mother headed straight to the public cemetery where her grandfather was buried. Although lately they rarely come on pilgrimage to the tomb, but the condition of the tomb belonging to Raka's grandfather looks neat and clean. That is because a couple who waited for their house, also took care of the tomb.

After reading the verses of the Qur'an and sending prayers to his grandfather, Raka and Sophia's mother then returned to his old house to say goodbye to the couple. After that, they immediately returned to their rented house near the new capital candidate.

When they returned home to his rented house, in the middle of the trip, they were intercepted by a group of people. It seems like they are a group of thugs who are friends of Gareng. Apparently, these few days Gareng always keep an eye on Raka's movements, and had planned to take revenge for the events of that time in the afternoon market.

'' Stop! Quick down!'' snapped one of the thugs so fiercely.

Because the road was blocked by the thugs, Raka and Sophia's mother immediately went down. However, just after they got off the bike, the thugs immediately caught Raka and her mother. Raka wants to fight. However, as they threatened to kill her mother with a knife that was already on Sophia's mother's neck, Raka was forced to shut up and follow the thugs' will.

The thugs then took Raka and her mother away from the road. Behind the bushes of an oil palm plantation owned by a company, Raka and her mother were tied up and beaten.

'' Hhh.. Hey snot boy! This is the result if you dare to interfere in our affairs!'' gareng said while pulling Raka's hair.

'' And you need to know, this is just the beginning. After this, there are still surprises for you and also the asshole boy and his pretentious girl. Hhh..'' He continued, then again beat Raka who was tied under the palm tree.

'' Hey coward! If you are a man, let go of this bond! We fight manly. Don't be brave like this and it can only bother a woman!'' raka shouted furiously, when he saw one of the thugs trying to disturb his mother.

'' Hhh.. Many bacots you! Yesterday alone, if not for the help of the cunning man and the girl, you would have been lying on the ground. Now, you want to fight against us, hhh.. Dream you! You snot boy!'' sahut Gareng loudly heard Raka's words.

'' Hey sissy thugs! Don't bother my mother! Anyone who dares to touch my mother, I will make sure, tomorrow you all will no longer be able to see the sunrise!'' raka shouted increasingly louder and furious.

'' Oh... So that woman is your mother! Hm.. Seems pretty good too. Hhh.'' said Gareng, then approached Sophia's mother.

'' Bastard... Unhand me! Don't bother my mother..!''

Seeing that Gareng and the other thugs were starting to approach his mother, Raka angrily shouted out loud. His voice sounds so loud. Gareng and his friends were surprised by Raka's shout and were silent for a moment.

Meanwhile, Sophia's mother is bound and her mouth is stuffed with cloth, she tries to rebel as much as possible. Since seeing Raka being beaten by the thugs earlier, he wanted to beg the thugs to stop beating Raka. However, he was helpless at all. In fact, he was now in a more dangerous position.

With tears in her eyes, Sophia's mother could only pray in her heart. That God may help him and Raka. Inwardly, he also shouted calling his late father.

At that critical moment. Along with the screams of Raka that so echoed. Suddenly, the wind blew so hard. Gareng and the other thugs, they got a little panicked by the situation. Which made them even more surprised. Suddenly, out of nowhere came two tigers big enough and roaring so loudly in front of them.

Gareng and the other thugs grew even more panicked, as the two tigers began to approach them. Gareng and his friends immediately pulled out a gun from behind their clothes, and prepared to shoot the two tigers. However, they had not been able to pull the trigger, the two tigers had quickly jumped to attack them.

'' Aaaak, ''' shouted some of them, as a result of the scratches and bites of the two tigers. Gareng who saw his colleagues began to fall in pain, he became frightened. Although in his hand he still holds the gun, but because the movement of the two tigers was so fast and coupled with the tight wind that blew in that place, making him and the others unable to aim at the two tigers.

'' Haumm... Dor..Dor.., Aaaa!'' jereng shouted in pain.

She's surprised. Suddenly, one of the tigers jumped at him, then bit his hand that was holding the gun. Reflek, he fired that gun. However, with no clear direction at all.

Without mercy, the tiger so fiercely bit the arm and threw Gareng's body. It happened a few times. Thus, only a quite heartbreaking groan was heard from the mouth of Gareng and the others, due to the wounds in the form of scratches and bites of the tiger.

When the two tigers were busy toying with Gareng and one of his companions, some thugs who could still move, they immediately fled. Seeing that the people were no longer helpless, the two tigers then stopped the action. Both of them roared loudly, then left the place.

Raka and her mother could only watch the incident from the place where they were tied up. Both Raka and Sophia's mother, they were actually worried, just in case the two tigers would attack them as well. However, after the two tigers left and lost somewhere, Raka and her mother can now breathe with relief.

Whether it was a coincidence or what, but clearly, the two tigers had indeed saved them from Gareng and his friends. Especially Sophia's mother who was about to be bullied by the thugs. Perhaps, that was the answer from God to the prayers of Sophia's mother who had previously expressed in her heart.

Meanwhile, on the side of the road where Raka's motorbike is located. A pickup truck stops when it sees Raka's motorbike lying there. The driver immediately went down, because he felt he recognized the motorcycle. He immediately woke up the motor that had collapsed since.

After fixing the position of the motorbike, the man looked around looking for the existence of the owner of the motorbike. He then shouted to Raka.

'' Mas Raka, Mas Raka, where are you? call the man, while continuing to look for the whereabouts of Raka around the place.

Not hearing the answer from the person he called, the man then went to trace the footprints, where the thugs had brought Raka and her mother.

'' Hemm.. Something's not right!'' he mempatin.

Apparently, the man was none other than Mr. Junaidi, who was coincidentally on his way home, having returned from delivering orders to some of his customers. After a while of searching, Junaidi finally found Raka's whereabouts.

'' Mom is okay mom?'' raka asked Sophia's mother.

'' Mom is okay, son. How are you?'' shopia's mother asked as she gently stroked Raka's face filled with bruises, and there was even still blood flowing from her temple.

'' I'm fine ma'am! This is just a small wound, said Raka who saw her mother shed tears, because she saw the situation Raka.

'' Mas Raka, ready nyang nglakuin this mas, Ape thugs ntu again? said Mr. Junaidi repeated the question that had not been answered by Raka.

'' Yes Beh! They are the ones who do all this. But, it looks like they have a bigger plot Beh.''

'' Better, Babeh and Babeh's daughter should be careful. I heard, they have also planned something to Babeh and Babeh's daughter said Raka reminded Mr. Junaidi.

'' Less asem! Rupanye, they are still kapok balloons too with the incident yesterday.''

'' Aye should ngingetin Baedah if so. The boy, selaen likes to be rash, die also likes to wander alone.'' said Mr. Junaidi.

'' Yes Beh. Even though Babeh's daughter is good at martial arts, but if she is mobbed by her gang of thugs, I fear she will be overwhelmed. Moreover, those thugs were also very cunning. This could very well jeopardise Babeh's daughter's safety.''

'' Iye mas Raka. Aye also Iwatirnye so. As soon as, aye cepet cepet tell Baedah to die not often out alone.''

'' Oh iye mas, kite is also as good as you can get out of here. Aboutnye, here is too quiet and the return trip is also still quite far.'' said Mr. Junaidi, inviting Raka and his mother to leave the place immediately.

After that, they immediately got up and were about to leave the place. However, just as Raka was about to get up and leave, her body suddenly shuddered and felt so much pain. Apparently, Gareng and his friends, beat Raka quite badly.

'' Well, Raka!'' said Mr. Junaidi and Sophia's mother almost simultaneously.

Seeing Raka like that, Mr. Junaidi immediately caught Raka's body. By being married by Mr. Junaidi, Rakapun immediately went from there followed by his mother. Upon arriving at the road where their vehicle is located, Mr. Junaidi immediately told Raka and his mother to get into his car.

'' Mas Raka and mom! You better come with my car. It seems, the condition of Raka mas is less possible to carry his own vehicle. Let the motorbike later we raise it in the car tub.'' said Mr. Junaidi while opening the car door.

'' Yes Beh. But how can we raise that bike. I myself did not feel strong to help lift the bike up the car.'' said Raka.

'' Don't think about it. Now, mas Raka same mother rose aje first. Let Babeh later find help to ride in motorcycley mas Raka.'' said Mr. Junaidi.

Just now Mr. Junaidi said like that, coincidentally, a motorbike driven by two men was about to pass by them. Mr. Junaidi then stopped the vehicle, then asked them to help raise Raka's motorbike.

After raising and tying Raka's motorbike, Junaidi sir immediately brought his car back to the city. On the way home, Junaidi suggested that Raka and her mother go to the hospital to be examined. But Raka refused. However, Mr. Junaidi still took them there because he saw the condition of Raka like that.

'' Mas Raka! Baeknye, Raka mas rest for a few days here, ampe Raka mas condition back better than before. Let the bike and his mother Raka, Babeh nyang anterin back home.''

'' I also don't have to worry about Mas Raka. Mom breaks aje at home. Let Aye and Baedah nyang wait for Raka here.''s advice Pak Junaidi to Raka and Sophia's mother, after they arrived at the hospital and get treatment from a doctor.

'' Sorry Beh! I've been troubling Babeh a lot. My mother and I also thanked Babeh for his help to us, said Raka, who was lying on the bed.

'' But Beh! If I may ask for help again, please tell the doctor, so I can be allowed to rest at home. It feels, I am not comfortable here.'' continued Raka who does not want him to continue in the hospital.

'' Ma! Mas Raka just found out ape said the doctor? Mas Raka Belon can go home now. Ataknye, Raka mas can only return home tomorrow morning.''

'' Uda... Mas Raka rest aje here. About the cost, Mas Raka did not have to think. Let Baiayanye Babeh nyang peril.'' said Mr. Junaidi who thought that Raka was worried about the problem of his self-care costs during his time at the hospital.

'' Sorry Beh! I'm not worried about the cost of my treatment here. But, I do not feel at home if you have been here for a long time, said Raka explained.

Mr. Junaidi can no longer give an excuse to Raka. He then turned to Sophia's mother, and asked Sophia's mother to advise Raka, so that Raka still follow the advice of the doctor and rest in the hospital. Sophia's mother who also thought, if Raka should get treatment from the doctor and rest here, she then approached Raka and said:

'' Raka... It seems, it's best that you rest here. Let the mother who wants you here. But I want to go home first to get clothes and other necessities said Sophia's mother, holding Raka's arm.

'' But ma'am, now Raka feels better. Raka just needs to rest and sleep at home. Tomorrow, Raka must be healthy again.'' said Raka still refused to rest in the hospital.

After being repeatedly persuaded by his mother and also Junaidi sir, Rakapun finally wanted to follow their advice. He was willing to rest in the hospital, at least until tomorrow morning. Shortly afterwards, Junaidi went to take home Sopia's mother and also dropped off Raka's motorbike at her home.
