Tommy looked at Nurul with disgust. “Nurul, you're not stupid. Did you really think Sudarsono would just quit after offering money? What if Icha's lover refuses Sudarsono's money? Would Sudarsono threaten to destroy it? Or will he arrange for the man to be.... obliterated?” said Tommy.
Nurul's eyes widened. “You mean killed?” ask Nurul. “Of course! I'm not surprised Sudarsono did it. He's not going to propose a duel, he knows he's not going to win. But he's going to hire criminals to hurt Rudi on a dark street,” Tommy said.
“He never mentioned murder!” nurul. Nurul was silent for a moment. A man who threatened to send himself to prison if he refused Mr. Sudarsono's request would definitely not hesitate to commit murder on someone.
Nurul breathed with great difficulty. “Despite this, I don't know who the man who became Icha's lover was. He is very likely not Rudi,” Nurul said. “Yes, maybe even Rudi. I never thought that Rudi would be reckless to get Icha. But, who knows?” said Tommy.
Tommy leaned over his body and his face stiffened. “Even if the man is not Rudi, you helped Sudarsono to destroy the life of a poor man. Why?” said Tommy.
“Icha is my best friend,” said Nurul firmly, given all the explanations he had done with Aunt Lupita. “I don't want to see her married to a... one... “ Nurul said. “Treasure hunter? It's bullshit! If your friend falls in love with a poor shepherd, you will be willing to go to the ends of the earth to help them find happiness. Iknowyou. You believe such foolish thoughts?” said Tommy.
Tommy's expression grew tense. “What happened to your reluctance to lie? Can I be sure that you're doing that disguise you don't want? Take off your veil, put on a seductive dress, just to help your best friend? I'm not sure of anything so stupid!” said Tommy.
“Terlarah. I don't care if you believe or don't!” nurul. “You better care. Because I'll be back in Jakarta as soon as I drive you home. I'll settle this matter soon, although I have to strangle Sudarsono to solve it!” said Tommy.
Panic has struck Nurul. “Don't do that, Tom! If you need to, you can tell Rudi and Brian. Warn them to stay away. But, please don't come to me Mr Sudarsono!” nurul.
Tommy grabs Nurul's shoulder and shakes Nurul's body. “Why? What has Sudarsono threatened you with?” ask Tommy. Tears flowed down Nurul's cheeks. “I... I can't... tell you! You can't do anything to overcome it and if I tell you. “ Nurul said.
“What does that have to do with your father's source of livelihood? Is it because of that? He threatened to stop your father's source of livelihood? Look, Nurul, I can give your father ten times the source of his livelihood, wherever he wants it!” said Tommy.
“Not that the problem!” Nurul looked at her in panic. “Master Sudarsono knows something about me. he says if he will... “ Nurul can't tell Tommy. The man will definitely meet Mr. Sudarsono, although Nurul pleads in any way to stop him.
Tommy was a man who would act like that, and he would never accept that he could not prevent Mr. Sudarsono from sending Nurul to prison. So, Tommy will act recklessly and threaten Mr. Sudarsono and produce nothing but the destruction of Nurul. Nurul can only find a way to prevent it.
Tommy now looked at Nurul as if he were a disgusting insect. After removing Nurul's grip on her shirt, she leaned back into her chair. “Something? What fleeting thing does Sudarsono know about you that you are willing to offer yourself to be my mistress, to prevent the revelation of that secret?” ask Tommy.

“Sometimes what Sudarsono knows about you so you are willing to offer yourself to be my mistress, to prevent the revelation of that secret?” ask Tommy.
“It's not a problem anymore. We will get married soon, then maybe he will not.. “ Nurul getting slower. “What did I say? Sudarsono. If we get married, she's even more excited to use what she knows against me.” Tommy said.
Tommy looked at Nurul with a look of caution, Nurul's heart seemed twisted in his chest. “In addition, you don't want a wife who has a dark secret right? On the one hand, you're humbling yourself for marrying a stupid country girl. God will forbid you to marry a woman who keeps her secrets and does not tell you. The woman may be a thief or a murderer,” Nurul said.
“That's enough! I'm asking you to trust me, Nurul,” Tommy said. “But you won't do it right? That's not what a young conglomerate named Tommy did. No, you have to know everything, be in control of everything. You never act so foolishly to trust others,” Nurul said.
“Damn you, Nurul! Shut the fuck up!” Tommy's eyes sparkled like two torches lit up in the dark of the night. Then, he clenched his fist violently onto the roof of the car.
According to Tommy, Nurul was too pedantic. He was so eagerly waiting for Nurul's explanation, but Nurul actually discussed the perspective of feelings. How Tommy wants Nurul to believe it, but Nurul demands that it be him who trusts Nurul to keep the secret himself.
Tommy is so unbearable to the girl when he keeps the secret himself, something that weighs on the girl. Nurul's self-protection was so strong, so persistent in defending what Nurul thought was right. Tommy did not think about what made Nurul so strongly defend his principle. Since the first Nurul who is known to him is indeed so strong hold the principle, a girl who is so characteristic. But, for Tommy right now Nurul's decision is wrong.
Not so with Nurul. He was very concerned about his position towards Tommy. For him, a couple is a relationship that emphasizes the position of both. No one between the two can dominate the other so the issue of feeling is ignored. Between one and the other requires openness and an attitude of acceptance and respect. For him, Tommy needs to respect his decision.
“Pak, faster road, Sir!” tommy said to the driver.
