Light For Stars
Chapter Four

"Yes, what's up?" aunty Laksmi asked when she saw the Light was still. "Yes!" call again.

"I. yes, Auntie," replied the Light.

"Why? What was? Do you know that guy?" A row of questions came out of Laksmi's mouth.

Back Light went silent. Laksmi did know, if his nephew's student duties were revoked because of slander committed by a young man to the Light. However, Laksmi had never seen the face of the young man in question directly.

"No. If, I had told Auntie that she was the one who had made my student duties revoked and that she was the one who bullied me on campus, Aunt would not have helped her. It's about human lives anyway and I can't possibly let him here without help." The light speaks in the heart.

"Yes!" call Aunt Laksmi this time with a little increase in the intonation of her voice.

"No, Aunt. Ayaa... Aya did not know him," replied the Light. He had to lie to his aunt in order to help the Star.

Yes, the person they had just brought from the edge of the Shade was the Star. An arrogant young man who often bullies him on campus. The young man also made his student duties revoked by the campus.

"Why did you keep talking? Oh yeah, how? Is he still alive?" ask Laksmi again. "Tante doesn't want to deal with the police."

The star examined the pulse on the wrist of the arrogant young man he knew using two fingers.

"Alhamdullillah, Aunt she is alive" replied the Light.

"Thank God he's alive." Laksmi was happy to hear that.

"Tante, but if we don't call the police how do we help him? If we take him to the hospital, we will definitely be questioned by the hospital. So, is not it better to lose we just report the police," explained Light.

"No! Anyway, Auntie doesn't want to deal with the police. Let's just take him home, keep calling the mantri who lives near our house" replied Aunt Laksmi.

"Then how do we get him home, Auntie?"

Laksmi watched the young man she just saved just now. The young man had a pretty ideal posture. If observed, his height is about 180 centimeters and the weight of the young man is estimated to be more than 65 kg. Laksmi believes, even though being able to carry the young man together with the Light will definitely take longer. He then stared at the wagon containing the tools and the rest of his merchandise. The shape of a laksmi trading cart is not like a meatball cart or anything else, but more like a cart belonging to a scavenger. Before her husband had an accident, the cart was towed by motorcycle. However, they were forced to sell the motorbike to finance the treatment of her husband who was a hit-and-run victim.

"Tante, what are you doing?" tanya Light when he saw the tant stacking tools that can be stacked and put the rest of the sales branch into a large plastic bag and leave a fairly loose place.

"We're taking the young man home with this. Put him in here!" laksmi. He explained what they were going to do to help the young man.

"But, Aunt.... "

"Here you go, let's get him up here. Or do you want to let that young man stay here? Aunty told you, didn't she want to deal with the police?" back Laksmi interrupted the words Light.

"All right" replied the Light. He and his aunt then carried the young man known as the Star onto the wagon. They positioned the Stars like people sitting with their heads resting on tent rolls to fit in their carts.

"Aunty sure you want to bring the rest of the merchandise by hand?" tanya Light when he saw his two hands against two plastic bags with a large size.

"Well, what else? We can't put it on the wagon" replied Laksmi. "It has. Pull the wagon! Auntie's gonna help push!"

Light nodded. He again pulled the wagon with more power than before due to the additional load.

The light and tantenya took a long time from the previous days. Usually they will arrive before 1 pm, but this time they just arrived at their home around 01.15 WIB.

Once home, Aunt Laksmi immediately brought the rest of her merchandise into the kitchen. He then returned again to help the Light sweep the still unconscious young man on the wagon. The two immediately took the young man into the living room and laid him on the cot.

"Why did you guys just come home? See what time it is? I can't sleep because I think of you" said Om Cahyono, who had just walked out of the room using his wheelchair. "Lho who is he? Why did you bring him home?" he asked again when he saw a young man lying on a couch.

"We don't know him, Om. We found him lying face down on a tree trunk by the river" Light replied.

"Yes, Mas. We were on our way home when we accidentally saw him. Because we did not have the heart, we brought him home to be treated" explained Aunt Laksmi. He also explained how he and Light brought the young man home.

"Why not take her to the hospital? Or call the police and let the police take care of it?" Cahyono asked again.

"You know for yourself, Mas, I'm the laziest if I have to deal with the name of the police" said Laksmi. "What happened a few years ago?"

Om Cahyano again recalled the incident that befell him and his wife a few years ago an incident that finally made Laksmi kapok if he had to intersect with the institution in a brown uniform.

"But, not all cops are like that guy. I am sure, there are still many honest police who prioritize justice and truth" explained Om Cahyono. He didn't want his wife to assume that all the cops were the same as the cops they met a few years ago.

"Whatever, Mas. Anyway, I don't want to deal with the same thing as the police anymore" Laksmi cheered. "For me all the police are podo wae, same."

Cahyono could only sigh at her. He couldn't change his wife's thinking about the police. "How will you treat the young man?"

"We call it the mantri who lives next door to our house. Just say that his girlfriend Aya had an accident on the road and fell into the river when she wanted to come here," replied Laksmi.

"But, Tan.... "

"Wes, don't have much debate. You want to help that young man. So, just fuck Auntie." Again Laksmi interrupted the words of Light. "Here, call Mr. mantri to come here! Just tell me, Auntie told me!" Laksmi gave the order.

The light looked towards the lying Star. "If it wasn't for humanity, I wouldn't have helped you either. Especially while on campus you used to bully me, "inner Light.

"Hey, sana! How to fuck!" Aunt Laksmi gave a small pinch on her nephew's arm.

"Aw, sick Aunt." The light rubbed the arm of his former tantric pinch.

"Eat him don't daydream! Get Mantri sir!" ask Aunt Laksmi again.

A few moments later the mantri came. At first he asked about what had happened to the still unconscious young man. Aunt Laksmi also answered in accordance with the answer given to her husband some time ago. He said that the young man was his girlfriend Cahaya who had an accident when he was about to meet Cahaya to this house. Just that made the Mantri surprised, the article all this time he rarely saw Light mingle with the opposite sex.

"The name of the young people is natural to have an important girlfriend they are dating does not exceed the limit," added Aunt Laksmi.

"Yes, Ma'am, that's natural. Only rarely do I see the Light getting along with other people let alone men," replied Mantri who felt bad about her own reaction.

"Where's the condition? Severe?" asked Laksmi ignoring the mantri's words just now.

"It looks like just a mild concussion. But, to ensure more details it is better to take it to the hospital," said Mr. Mantri. "My equipment is limited."

"Pak Mantri can infuse, right? Just give him the same infusion of cheap drugs. It just so happened that his family was also poor, poorer than mine. So, to go to the hospital there is certainly no cost," replied Laksi. He did not know who the young man's family was.

The Mantri thought for a moment. He looked back at the young man's condition. When seen in plain sight, the wound on the young man was not severe enough. There were only scratches on the head, hands, feet, and bruises on the back.

"Alright, while I was injecting him with anti-tetanus drugs. Next give him the medicine according to what I prescribed," Mantri replied while writing some recipes on a piece of paper. He then gave the paper to Laksmi.

"It's the cheapest medicine, right?" Aunt Laksmi made sure. He did not want to spend a lot of money on people who were completely unknown to him. Moreover, the current economic condition is still difficult.

"That's the cheapest" replied the Mantri. "I'm sorry now. But, if he has a fever or what contact me again. Fear the tetanus has spread."

"How much does it cost? Don't be as expensive as your own neighbors?" ask Aunt Laksmi.

"For my services, it's free. Ms. Laksmi just change the cost of the infusion liquid."

Aunt Laksmi is seen scratching her head.

"Because he is her boyfriend Cahaya, I also free him for his infusion," added Sang Mantri. He is already poulted with the behavior of his neighbors if he does not have money.

"Thank you, Mr. Mantri. Mr. Mantri is indeed the nicest person in the world," praised Laksmi rather more.

"Together Mrs Laksmi, we are neighbors. You should help each other" replied Mantri. "Yes, Mom, Mr. Cahyono, I say yes. Tomorrow I have to leave in the morning."

"Please, sir, please! Thanks again." This time Mr. Mantri only smiled faintly before leaving the house.

"She, recipe. Tomorrow you buy the cure in the pharmacy." Aunt Laksmi gave the recipe paper given by the mantri earlier.

"Good, Aunt. But.... "

"What else?" ask Laksmi a little ketus.

"The man's clothes will get wet, if we let it get worse because of the cold." The light pointed at the clothes attached to the Star's body. The clothes were wet and dirty.

"Take your Uncle's shirt. Find the one that fits on her body!"

"If that's what I know. I mean who's gonna change his clothes?" answer the Light while asking.

Lakshmi thought again. He could not change the clothes of the young man because it was not a muhrim, could have his neck slit by the husband if he did. "You just changed her clothes. Aunty prepares hot water to wipe her body."

"Flame.... "

"Uncle will help replace parts that you can't see yet. You'll wipe her body with a handkerchief!" Cahyono understood what his nephew's thoughts were.

"Yes, Uncle. Thank you, yes" said Light.

Cahyono.

Laksmi prepared warm water in the basin. He then took her to the living room where the young man he helped was unconscious. He also gave the following basin his debt to the Light.

With the help of Cahyono, Light began to wipe and change the clothes of the Star with his uncle's clothes. Although it was small because the body of the Star was much more stocky than Cahyono, at least it was better than the Star had to wear her wet and dirty clothes.

"Uncle and Aunt rest first huh. You also sleep. Looks like the young man is sleeping well too!"

"Yes, Uncle," Light replied with a smile.

Cahyono went into his room, after Laksmi first to the most comfortable place to rest. Earlier Light heard his Tantenya who was making her bed. Not long after, a soft snore sounded from the room. The light could hear any sound from inside Uncle and his aunt's room, knowing that the room was not a room made soundproof.

"I'd better sleep, too. My body is also very tired."The light moved his body left and right. "I put this shirt in the tub first." He left the Star lying on the couch.

***

Next morning....

Morning sunlight enters through the ventilation gap of the house. Makes the body of the Star slightly sultry due to exposure to its rays. Slowly his eyes opened as the sound of a crumb interfered with his sense of hearing. Surprisingly he felt his whole body crumble.

"Eh, where is this?" star Mumm. He was confused by his current existence. Moreover, there is an infusion hose that is still stuck in his right hand. The young man who had a handsome face, white skin, and a big nose was trying to remember the incident that happened to him last night.

Yes, the stars remember. If last night he was racing with the head of the Tiger Motorcycle Gang. It was all dispersed when there were police who suddenly came to the race location. The star also recalled the incident as he was hiding from police. Someone he knew very well, suddenly hit him with a wooden block. In a semi-conscious state, the Star felt its body being thrown into a breech. Luckily, he was still able to save himself by holding on to the trunk of a tree after which he was completely unconscious. I don't know how long he fainted, but he regained his senses when he felt his body being swept away by an unknown person. Not just one, but two. Even though he vaguely knew that the one who broke him was a woman.

"Awake? It's eat, then take your medicine!" The voice of a person from behind, reflexes made him turn his head. The eyes of the Star are round when they know who the owner of the voice is. "Lo!" he said while pointing.
