In a remote village far from the crowd called Umbul Jaya Village lived an orphan named Zeno. The boy's full name is Zeno Zaylani but due to a technical glitch the boy's name was changed to Zeno Anzaylani since he graduated from elementary school.
Currently, Zeno was 14 years old, handsome, straight-haired black, slightly narrow-eyed with his white skin. But because it is not well managed the child looks very shabby, dirty and seedy. Zeno is currently attending junior high school and is an accomplished student.
Zeno lives with an old grandfather but still looks handsome despite his age of 80 years. The grandfather was the father of Zeno's late mother.
His name was Wiro Sudibyo. Wiro's grandfather was a former soldier who was very clever and respected in his prime. But because of the lack of attention by the Government of the life of grandparents Wiro and Zeno can also be called very less than the word adequacy. They can even be called a very poor family.
Because it is very poor there are so many people who insult and mock them, especially the rich people who live in the village. Usually the one who mocked was the son of the rich people who were in the village. Every day they bullied the poor Zeno. Poor .... already poor and miserable humiliated anyway. But not a few feel sorry for them.
In his old age while taking care of his only grandson, Wiro's grandfather became a wage farmer in the village. It was forced to do because in order to meet the daily needs of him and his grandson Zeno. Fortunately, Zeno's school fees are free because Zeno has a good achievement in school.
One afternoon in Umbul Jaya Village.
The afternoon atmosphere in the village of Umbul Jaya feels very cool because of the breeze that hit. There is a green rice field stretching along the main road of the village. Zeno and Wiro's grandfather were sitting in front of their house while enjoying warm sweet tea and freshly boiled cassava. Suddenly Zeno said something unexpected.
"Sir, Zeno wants to go see the city of Jakarta" Zeno told his grandfather.
"Zeno, you can go there if you're an adult." Grandpa Wiro responded to Zeno's words while sipping his warm sweet tea.
"Why can't it be now, Cake? Zeno is 14 years old" asked Zeno with a clear face.
"Zeno, life in the City was not as easy and simple as life in the Village like this. Jakarta is a cruel city, son, you will understand when you grow up later, and also you do not have enough supplies that deserve to go there." Grandpa Wiro explained to Zeno to understand.
"Had it been, Kek .. huft," replied Zeno a little disappointed.
Zeno looked disappointed as his grandfather replied like that. But what can be done must be so the situation. I don't know what Zeno was looking for so he was very adamant about leaving for Jakarta City.

Meanwhile, in the city of Jakarta that Zeno wants to go to. There was a beautiful little girl named Jessie. Her full name is Jessica Francesca Wijaya. The girl had long, wavy brown hair with round brown eyes. The girl's skin was pure white like milk. The girl is 10 years old.
The girl was very spoiled because she was the only daughter of a wealthy businessman in the City. Family wealth was also included in the list of 10 rich families in Indonesia. The family name is Wijaya family. The name of the head of the family is Frans Wijaya.
Jessie from infancy is taken care of by a maid named, Aunt Juneng. Jessie who felt unnoticed was very indifferent with her parents and closer to the maid. Whatever the will of Jessie is always obeyed but the time of togetherness between children and parents is very rare.
Jessie's real mother Nelly Wijaya only knows to have fun and squander her husband's money. His job is just shopping, to the salon, skin beauty care and all kinds of behavior. Even though Nelly's mother loved her only child so much, she just didn't know how to take care of her only child. While his father, Mr. Frans Wijaya is rarely at home because of his business affairs. Even so, Mr. Frans also loved his only daughter.
Mr. Frans wanted to have another child but it was not possible because his wife was convicted of not being able to get pregnant again due to a problem in her uterus. It was because Nelly's mistress had uterine cancer so her uterus had to be removed. Fortunately, she gave birth to Jessie before she contracted the disease.
Mr. Frans does not want to marry again even though he is a super rich man aka sultan, it is because he is very loyal and loves his wife very much. Mr. Frans is the type of man who is tsundere, the type of man who looks indifferent even though bucin (love slave).
"Bi ... Jessie's thirsty!" jessie shouted while reading a comic book.
"What do you want to drink, Neng?" ask Aunty.
"I want hot chocolate, Bi!" answer Jessie briefly.
"Yes, Non, I'll make you a aunt." Aunt agreed to Jessie's request.

From outside Jessie's room came a noise like the sound of people arguing. It turned out to be the voice of Lord Frans Wijaya and his wife Lady Nelly.
"Jessie needs a bodyguard from now on!" said Mr. Frans firmly.
"But Jessie needs privacy, Pa! The timing of everything he did had to be watched by the bodyguard!" answer Mrs Nelly.
"Jessie's safety is more important than her privacy! You should have thought of that." Mr. Frans yelled at Mrs Nelly.
Mr. Frans is a construction businessman. Mr. Frans is not only an ordinary construction businessman but he is also a man who runs an underworld business as a mafia. Therefore, the lives of his entire family including Jessie's only child became the target of his business competitors. So Mr. Frans needs a lot of bodyguards to protect him and his family.
