Not Nackal, Nurul!
A Journey (revised)

Nurul looked at Tommy vigilantly and Tommy straightened his dress to the top of the shoulder until the dress hid Nurul's most seductive body parts.  “I won't say anything to Sudarsono or Brian, if that's what you want,” Tommy said.

“And about marrying you..” continued Tommy.  Nurul touched his finger to Tommy's lips.  “No more talks about marriage.  I do not expect you to sacrifice yourself for reasons of honor,” Nurul said.

“That's no sacrifice,” whispered Tommy.  Tommy really said it.  “Samely, you do not need to marry me,” said Nurul.  As Tommy turned stiff, Nurul added, “Please, don't discuss this again.  I just want to go, before they find out I'm not home,” Nurul said.

“I won't let you go home with a rental car online.  It's been a really good night,” asserted Tommy.  “I'll take you home,” he continued.  “What if someone sees us together and suspects.” Nurul said.

“At three in the morning?  No one will see, my dear.  And if I can make you feel better, I'll stop a little further from Sudarsono's house,”.

Nurul was relieved.  “Thank you.  I don't like going home alone either.  Never have I left this late with a person who is not known,” said Nurul.

“Now clean yourself, we'll find my sister's clothes that fit your size.  Don't wear this dress again, it's too open,” said Tommy.

When he saw Nurul blushing, Tommy almost smiled.  Somehow, even in her condition that had been ‘rusak’, Nurul was still acting naively.

“As you prepare, I will prepare my car and driver,” Tommy said.

Nurul gets into Tommy's car in the living room, sitting alone with Tommy, while the driver sits alone in the front.  Nurul's clothes were so covered, long-sleeved and skirts almost dragged.  Tommy's half-sister must be as good as Nurul.

After ordering his driver, Mr. Yeyet, to run his car, Tommy clasped Nurul's hand.  “You look tired.  It must have been a long night for you, right?” said Tommy.

“Ya,” replied Nurul.  Nurul was actually very tired.  Seduction does provide its own pleasure but also drains its energy.

Tommy's dark car glass dimmed the atmosphere.  Tommy shifts and pulls Nurul and puts Nurul's head on his chest.  “Come here, sleep a while.  I'll wake you when we get to our destination,” Tommy said.

As Tommy wrapped his arms around her to hug her, Nurul felt relaxed above Tommy's body.  Nurul is exhausted.  “I didn't hurt you at all right, honey?” said Tommy.  “Neg.  Besides, maybe this is the last time I can hug you like this,” Nurul said.

Tears suddenly filled Nurul's eyes and he was relieved that Tommy could not see those tears in the darkness.  This is his last time with Tommy.  Although being in Tommy's arms became a pleasure that was difficult to forget, Nurul could not bear to ignore this moment.

But, Nurul doubted if he could sleep.  Too many things had happened, so there were too many things he had thought about.

It seemed that only a few seconds later, Nurul woke up.  Nurul was awakened by the voice of someone.  He turned his head to look at Tommy.  It was Tommy's snoring.The snoring made Nurul smile.

Nurul touches Tommy's cheeks, rough with a new sideburn that begins to grow on his jaw and looks at Tommy who is relaxed in his sleep like a baby.

The bitter and sweet sting made Nurul jerk her hand. It's too tempting to look at Tommy like this.  Until Nurul thought that he could see this scene every morning if only willing to sacrifice his honor.

Nurul does not believe Tommy has offered to marry her.  He figured Tommy would be happy not to have to marry her after screwing her.  Obviously, he had misjudged Tommy's character completely.

Nurul breaks away from Tommy carefully.  He shifted until he was no longer in Tommy's limp embrace.  Nurul looked to the side, fully expecting to see the bustling street lamps and tall buildings typical of the capital's protocol roads.

The car slowed down, there was indeed a light illuminating, but it was not a city street light, it was a toll gate light.  The dawn has gone.  Nurul could see the drab straight streets very wide.  That's a toll road!  Why cross the highway?

“Pak!  Where are we going?” ask Nurul to the driver.  The driver was silent.  “Wake, Tom!” shouted Nurul.  Tommy's snoring stopped instantly, he opened his still blurred eyes to look at Nurul.  “Hah?  What?” said Tommy sleepy.

“We're outside Jakarta!  I don't know how far we've left Jakarta, but it's morning.  We must have gone too far!  We gotta turn around, Tom!  If I have not reached home when someone realizes my departure.. “ Nurul said.  The unrest hit Nurul.

“Sial! My feet are tingling,” said Tommy.  He rubbed his feet with both hands.  “This is all because you fell asleep, Tommy!” nurul was upset.  Nurul grabbed one of Tommy's arms and said, “Udahlah, don't bother with the legs!  Quickly request driver turn back!”

Had Nurul brought a handbag, he would have hit Tommy on the head with his bag as if he had finally understood what Nurul was trying to say, Tommy was staring out the window.  “Oh, yes, yes..” said Tommy casually.

“You deliberately took me away, huh?” nurul.  “Ya clear dong.  Where dare Mr. Yeyet who initiative bring us out of Jakarta,” said Tommy.  “Basic jerk!” nurul.  “Where are we going, Tom?” continued.

Tommy's eyes looked at Nurul's eyes, calm and sharp.  “Kita wants to go east,” replied Tommy.  It made Nurul wooed.  “East?” said it.  “As I said before, we will get married,” Tommy said.

It took a while to catch Tommy's point.  But after being able to digest it, Nurul vertical full of anger.  “You brought me to Rudi's villa?  Against my will?  You jerk jerk jerk jerk!” nurul was upset.

“Hey... hey.. Keep your talk.  You're talking to your future husband,” Tommy said with a haughty smile.  “Pak!  Mr Yeyet!  Stop this car now!” nurul leaned forward between the two seats in front of him.  The car kept going.

“Pak Yeyet won't stop, unless I ask for it.  Why would you stop here anyway?  Want to get dropped off in the middle of the road?  Would you like to walk to Jakarta?” said Tommy.

“If I have to, I'll walk!” nurul.  “Udahlah, Darling.  Don't keep this up.  You also know that getting married is the only solution now,” said Tommy.

“Married?  Marrying in what way?  You are not even a Muslim.  Are you going to drag me into the church even if I scream and kick?  How will I be accepted by my family?  How will my father accept you?” nurul.  “I'm muslim, later.  I circumcise, later!  If I had to I would do it!” Tommy repeated the words Nurul had said earlier.
