Not Nackal, Nurul!
Tommy and Aunt Lupita (revised)

While from the side of Aunt Lupita, while holding a cellphone containing a chat from Tommy in her hand, she asked her car to be prepared.  He impatiently went somewhere.  The message from Tommy did not surprise him at all.  He had been expecting it almost since Nurul was with Tommy.

Aunt Lupita has told her brother that Nurul wants to go home for a while and will be back in a few days.  It was the only thing she could think of to prevent her brother from doing anything stupid.  He even hoped that the lie would not be revealed on his face.

But, in his heart he knew that Nurul had gone to Tommy and Tommy had sniffed Nurul.  I don't know where, Aunt Lupita doesn't know.  He has been visiting Tommy's house repeatedly for the past three days but his aides have confirmed that their master has left the city.  They didn't say anything about where Tommy was going.  But, wherever Tommy was, he must have brought Nurul, Aunt Lupita was sure of that.

Now Tommy has returned.  Tommy must have held all of Nurul's cards.  Tommy must have known clearly that Aunt Lupita and Mr. Sudarsono were in a position of not being able to protest his actions in public.

However, that doesn't mean that Aunt Lupita intends to let Tommy get away with it.  He'll force Tommy to marry Nurul, of course.  Aunt Lupita hastened.  The only thing Aunt Lupita doesn't understand is why Tommy insisted that she come alone and not tell Mr Sudarsono where he went? Very fishy.

By the time Aunt Lupita's car arrived at Tommy's residence, she had burned a burning grudge.  He ignored Tommy's maid.  “Where is that bastard?” said Aunt Lupita.  Tommy's maid stuttered under Aunt Lupita's sharp gaze, but the maid didn't need to direct Aunt Lupita, as she heard voices coming from an open door upstairs.

Recognizing one of the voices as Tommy's, Aunt Lupita rushed up the stairs to the room.  When he reached the door of the room, Aunt Lupita barged in and was shocked to see the scene that greeted him.  Tommy there was walking back and forth very messy and very tired.  It turns out that Rudi is also here and Nurul is nowhere to be seen.

Ignoring Rudi's cold gaze, Aunt Lupita directed all her attention to Tommy.  “Where is he?  What have you done to him?” ask Aunt Lupita.

The man seemed to have an admirable calm.  With a quick glance at his friend's direction, Tommy walks around and stands behind his desk, no doubt to intimidate Aunt Lupita.

“Good day, Auntie,” said Tommy as calmly as possible while sitting in his chair.  “Thank you for coming,” he continued.  “That's you, Tommy.  Where's Nurul?” ask Aunt Lupita again.

“Nurul?  Aunty opens this disguise easily?”  Tommy was really surprised when he heard that.  What did Tommy think?  Is Aunt Lupita going to mince words in front of Rudi while Nurul's safety is at stake?

“I don't care about any of that!  All I want to know is what you have done to that poor girl!” said Aunt Lupita.

Tommy's eyes narrowed.  “The poor girl is now in her hometown, in Madura with her father.  I took him there, Auntie,” Tommy said.

Aunt Lupita gaped at Tommy. nurul at home?  With dad?  Then Aunt Lupita remembered the last part of Tommy's sentence.  “You mean you told me that you traveled with Nurul unaccompanied?” aunt Lupita was angry.

Tommy fell out of his chair, leaned forward and placed his fist in the middle of the table.  “I took him there after he came here alone that night.  The poor girl offered me a certain freedom to keep me quiet about her disguise!  Yes, I drove him home!” said Tommy.

“What should I do besides that?  taking him to be more severely damaged by you and your brother?  At least with his father, he will be safe!” said Tommy.

Aunt Lupita felt a hue running through her face for the first time after she graduated from school.  Nurul has... offered himself to Tommy?  For the sake of closing her mouth?

Aunt Lupita crashing in the nearest chair.  He could barely digest the situation.  The night Nurul had told her honestly, Aunt Lupita never expected how desperate the girl was.

Aunt Lupita's head vertical.  “Basic base!  I don't know if he did something like that!” said Aunt Lupita.

“Oh, right like that huh?” ask Tommy.  “Of course, I don't know!”  Aunt Lupita turned to Rudi.  “Tell him!  You know I will never..” said Aunt Lupita.

“Frankly, I don't know what Auntie wants to do.  Aunty told me that Auntie wanted Nurul to marry Tommy.  Maybe Auntie thinks by telling Nurul to come to Tommy, then Tommy will do what Auntie wants,” said Rudi.

Tommy was shocked by what Rudi had just said.  He looked towards his friend.  “Tante Lupita says it to you?” ask Tommy to Rudi.  “Iya,” Aunty Lupita replied quickly.  “But I didn't mean to do it in such an embarrassing way.  Nurul also did not know about my plans to him.  Actually he feels confident that you will never marry anyone,” explained Aunt Lupita.

False look flashed across Tommy's face. “iya, Aunt lupita was right.  Nurul thought it was like that,” Tommy said.

Aunt Lupita got up from her chair and rushed over to the table.  “Whatever I have said or done you should not have pinned that mistake on Nurul,”, said Aunt Lupita.

“Indeed, he did a disguise as I asked him.  I'm sure you'd like to know why Nurul did that?” ask Aunt Lupita.  As Tommy nodded, Aunt Lupita continued.  “But the goal is to find out who is the man who tried to elope with Icha, nothing more than that,” said Aunt Lupita.

“Not me, Aunt,” said Rudi.  “Let's clarify that problem,” said Aunt Lupita.  Aunt Lupita gave Rudi a look that showed that it did not matter anymore.  “Whatever you say.  It's not important now.  I've decided that you're perfect for Icha.  If Tommy does not scare Nurul to make him very desperate, I myself will hand Icha to you,” said Aunt Lupita.

Rudi looked stunned.  “Really?” tanyakanya.  Tommy interrupted, “I don't care about Icha and her problem.  I only care about Nurul.  Aunty said as if Nurul was doing this disguise just because Auntie asked Nurul to do it.  But, there is something behind it,” Tommy said.

“In the night he came to me, he felt really scared. I wonder what the reason is, Auntie,” continued Tommy.  Aunt Lupita sighed.  “If I had known, I would have told you, Tommy.  Nurul has always insisted that he did it only for the sake of Icha, but I know there is something else he is hiding,” explained Aunt Lupita.

“When we first asked Nurul to do it, she refused.  Then, my brother asked him to talk to each other and Nurul changed his decision,” said Aunt Lupita.

“Tante didn't ask?  Aunty forces an innocent girl from the village to plunge into Jakarta society to make friends with people who are too free, like Brian!  Auntie doesn't care about him in the least?” said Tommy.

“With, Tom, I've tried my best to protect her.  On the night when Brian forcibly touched her at a party. “ Aunt Lupita's speech was cut off.  “Flicking it by force!  I'll destroy Brian!” tommy was angry.

Aunt Lupita had just made a mistake that she thought Nurul had told Tommy about the little incident.  “Not to worry, Brian could only give her one kiss.  When I approached them, Nurul was beating up Brian.  Nurul can protect herself, no matter what you think.  When he couldn't do it, I tried to keep an eye on him,” said Aunt Lupita.

“What does Auntie really do?  Then, how can I be alone with him for so long in Rudi's gallery?” tommy Protest.

Aunt Lupita looked at Tommy with a haughty look.  “That's my fault,” answered Aunt Lupita. A snort stuck out of Rudi's mouth and it distracts Aunt Lupita.  For a number of reasons, this shameless man thought of everything as a joke.

However, Tommy did not respond to his friend's jokes.  “Nurul should not be plunged into this situation at all,” Tommy said.  “I agree.  Unfortunately though more than once I suggested ending this disguise, she rejected it.  He won't give up.  Because I don't know what the reason is that makes him want to continue this disguise, I have no choice but to follow him,” said Aunt Lupita.
