The Nick's Life
Mysterious Man

“Nick.”

Denis immediately rushed towards his best friend. Hearing Nick return to Jakarta, Denis who had been deprived of his house arrest rushed to Diah's residence. Nick who was initially surprised returned the embrace of the oriental-faced man. Just like his other friends, Denis's existence is also familiar to him.

Nick has just arrived at the apartment he used to live in, along with Bryan, Diah and his other two best friends. Fahrul will follow once Maira is allowed to go home. Besides them, if you also come. Diah deliberately invites Bila, afraid if something happens to Nick. Jakarta has many memories for Nick. Diah does not want the state of the child back drop.

“Nick.. recognize this my wife, Ayura and this my son, Azka.”

“It's not you just got married huh? How come your son is this big? Lo already DP first yes, continue to install how many years new made legitimate.”

“Only lo!” sewot Denis's.

Others just laughed at hearing it. Actually Abe had told me about who Denis married to. It's just that Nick seems to be deliberately tempting the man since losing his memory, Nick's level of ignorance and his sense of humor is increasing.

“This who?” ask Denis while pointing to Bila.

“This doctor hmm.. psychiatrist who accompanied Nick during the counseling process, his name is Salsabila,” Abe introduced when to Denis.

“Call aja When. And I'm still assistant doctor Rafli, still resident doctor, not yet fully a psychiatrist,” If you welcome Denis' hand.

“Udah introduction same kangen. Now we eat first. Mommy has ordered a lot of food.”

Everyone goes straight to the middle room. Abe and Arnav shift the sofa, while Denis roll out the carpet. Ayura helped Diah bring food to the living room. When just stunned to witness the familiarity of all of them. Diah invites Bila to sit next to her.

The atmosphere of the middle room was immediately bustling with their conversation. Nick also seemed to enjoy this moment very much, no awkwardness at all. The people around him, his place and atmosphere were no strangers to him. The man was completely relying on his intuition. One by one when paying attention to Nick's best friend who has a mixed face besides Abe and Fahrul. Then his eyes fell on Arnav. The man he had just met today was a little more reserved than the others.

“Nick.. sorry, I just ngingetin aja, because it lo again amnesia. You still have the same debt Denis,” said Abe. Denis, who knew what Abe was talking about, glared at the man.

“That's what?”

“Lo promises to rent the same system ondel-ondel to ngarak him around Jakarta if he has circumcision. Now he has circumcision, he has become a convert as well. Instead of later in the afterlife you are billed, better now lo lunasin lo promise. I'll just catch up with my wedding, kan ajib tuh.”

“Bangk* lo Be!” sewot Denis's.

“Hahahaha Abe and Arnav couldn't help but laugh. Similarly, Ayura, could not imagine her husband paraded around Jakarta riding sisingaan and accompanied by two ondel-ondel.

“Serious I promise rich? Yes already. Dad... can you help me rent the same ondel-ondel?”

“Don't dad!!! Nick.. don't macem-macem lo!”

“That's a debt loh, must be paid so as not to be my burden.”

“Ngga to shucks! Debt and promise lo I consider paid off!!”

“Hahahaha..”

Laughter is back heard. Silently, when he smiled, seeing Nick can laugh freely and happily, the girl was happy. His chest suddenly rippled as Nick turned his head towards him with a smile on his face. Arnav glanced at Bila from the corner of his eye, his feeling saying that If you start to like Nick.

Their cheer is gone when Abe's phone rings, a call from his mother. Eni reported that there had just been a call from the police for Abe. Thomas filed a lawsuit because Abe had beaten him the other day.

“Why Be?” ask Arnav.

“Gue reported to the same police as b*nci because I had a blow,” furious Abe.

“B*nci who?” ask Nick confused.

“My brother-in-law who retreated again became an ex. The jerk was not only cheating but also KDRT during this time.”

“Buck so many people!” Denis followed the beaver, his hands clenched hard.

“Gue unplug first, Nick.”

“Gue tagged!” exclaim Denis.

“Ngga to macem-macem lo. Your business is not yet done. Let me who am Abe,” Arnav said.

“Gue follow,” connect Nick.

“No.. You stay here,” Diah instantly interrupts the conversation.

“I'm coming with mom!” firmly Nick.

“Nick.”

“Leave it. I will accompany him,” Bryan mediates.

Diah eventually relented, letting her son go with Abe. There was Bryan accompanying, making Diah a little calm. Everything just broke up, including Denis. Ayura takes Denis home because she doesn't want her husband to get into trouble again. When also prepared, the girl intends to come with Nick.

“Where are you going?” ask Arnav while blocking Bila's steps.

“I want to come.”

“It's a guy's business. You are here aja.”

“I have to come. What if something happens to Nick?”

“Nothing will happen to him. I guarantee it!”

When he undoes his intention of following Nick as soon as he sees Arnav's sharp gaze on him. This man is not as friendly as Abe and Fahrul. Arnav rushes out of the apartment unit following the others.

🍂🍂🍂

Syarif rushed to the inpatient room to see Thomas, his son-in-law. Unexpectedly, two days before the wedding, Thomas actually reported the child to the police station. It seems the man deliberately wanted to foil Abe's marriage.

BRACKET!

Sharif rudely opened the door of the room, Ambar who was in the room together with Thomas was of course surprised. Not only them, Syarif was also surprised to see Ambar who was sitting tight near the bed. The child was apparently begging her husband to retract the report.

“Build!” sharif on Ambar. Slowly Ambar stood up.

“Basic don't know yourself! This is what you gave me after I helped you become a board member?!” sharif growled, but Thomas laughed mockingly.

“Don't forget. You have a lot of support from me too. If it wasn't for me, you wouldn't have gotten a sponsor for your campaign.

Ambar clenched his hands hard. Not only has it hurt his heart and physique, Thomas has now been rude to his father. He grabbed the glass on the nightstand and broke it. Holding the broken glass, Ambar scatters towards Thomas, intending to stick it at the man.

“Ambar!! Don't kid!” prevent Syarif. He quickly restrained the princess who was about to make a desperate move.

“Pa released, released!! Let me just kill this b*fuck!!”

Thomas' laughter grew louder. The man seemed happy to see the behavior of the child and father in front of him. Syarif snatched the shards in Ambar's hand and threw them to the floor. He then pulled Ambar's hand out of the room.

“Are you crazy?”

“Iya I'm crazy! I'm crazy for marrying that jerk!”

“Tenace. Papa is gathering evidence of his crimes. Papa's going to put him in jail. That's why papa postponed your divorce, so that he does not suspect and you can get more evidence. But Abe.. the kid always acts rashly.”

“It's because papa. Did you ever ask him to talk? If from the beginning papa says papa's plan, he won't act that determined and I will also survive until papa manages to get proof of his crime!”

Syarif leaned his back against the wall behind him while pinching his hair. It's all his fault, not saying anything about his plan to put Thomas in jail. He was busy fighting with Abe who never wanted to follow his wishes.

“Kak.”

Ambar's head turned when he heard Abe call him. He rushed towards his sister and cried in his arms. Abe looked resentfully at the father. The man was the cause of all the chaos and suffering of his brother.

“What is papa satisfied now?”

“Be.. I beg you not to quarrel again,” Ambar parses his embrace.

“Papa is looking for evidence to put Thomas in prison. Please don't fight anymore. This is what he wants.”

Abe chose to be quiet. He sat himself in the chair in the corridor. Nick and Arnav sat down next to him. Suddenly a man in a suit passed in front of them and entered Thomas's room. Everyone thought it was Thomas' lawyer.

The man went into Thomas's room and locked the door from the inside. Thomas was surprised to see an unknown man enter and pulled a chair near his bed. With ease the man sat there.

“Who are you?”

“It doesn't matter who I am. But importantly, you should revoke the report on Abe right now.”

“Are you Abe's man? I don't want to, have the man come straight to me and kneel before me, maybe I'll change my mind.”

Thomas gasped as the man quickly approached him then clutched the man's neck firmly. The man's eyes flashed, a sly grin printed on his face.

“Just do what I tell you or say goodbye to your life. I could easily kill you, chop your body up and give it to a stray cat. No one will be able to find you. Understand?” Thomas nodded his head.

“So.. unplug your report now!”

The man let go of his hand violently. For a moment Thomas coughed while holding his neck in pain. The man in front of her gestured. With a shaking hand Thomas took his cell phone. He contacted his lawyer, asking to retract the report.

“Good. Take care of your attitude or I'll kill you,” the man slaps Thomas's jaw tightly and leaves. Without turning a single glance at Abe and the others the man waltzed away.

The mysterious man stood in front of the elevator. His eyes continued to stare towards the panel which indicated the existence of the square box object. The elevator door opened soon. From the elevator out of the Typhoon. The man rushed to the hospital as soon as he heard from Denis about Abe. His head was quite dizzy thinking about the problem that was not finished. While crossing the man in front of him, his hand was blocked by the man.

“You Typhoon?” ask without further ado.

The man let go of the check. His hand then took out a brown envelope from behind his suit and gave it to Typhoon. Confused, the Typhoon received the envelope.

“This what?”

“It.. use that to bring down Reisa and free your friend. That's the weapon to destroy that woman.”

“Who are you? How did you know about this?”

“Do not ask much. Just do what I say.”

While wearing his sunglasses, the man got into the elevator. The typhoon was stunned in place when it saw the elevator door close. Then his gaze turned on the brown envelope before him. He kept wondering about the perlente-looking man.

While in the elevator, the mysterious man took his cell phone. He contacted someone to give a report.

“Tasks are done”

“...”

“Good.”

The man ended his call and made another call. The man spoke for a long time, until his call ended just before the elevator door opened. With a long step, the man walked out of the elevator.

Meanwhile, Sharif was confused when his lawyer told him that Thomas had retracted his report. His son-in-law insisted on continuing with the demands. Sharif tried to see Thomas but the man refused.

“Why pa?” ask Ambar.

“Thomas, he's already pulled his report.”

“Kok can?”

“Papa also doesn't know.”

“What does this have to do with guys earlier?” chirp Arnav.

“Cowok wearing a suit is not it?” ask Typhoon.

“Iya.”

“Nah.. tuh people also gave this to me,” Typhoon showed the brown envelope he had received. It only has two USB.

“This is proof for sebasin Denis.”

“Serious?”

“Iya.”

“Ya don't use it for long. Love it to his lawyer.”

“Tar I first check the contents. Who knows if there's anything I can up load into medsos. Let ruined her career, girl. I swear very hard on him.”

“Serah elo deh. The important Denis free.”

“Denis why?” ask Nick.

“Ah has a baby boy diem first, do not need much nanya. I again emoji mode, males a lot of bacots,” replied Abe origin who was immediately given a pat on the back of his head by Nick. But the man just chuckled.

🍂🍂🍂

“Ananda Ahmad Baihaqi Erlangga, I marry and marry you to my daughter, Sandrina Oktavina bint Beni Sasongko with a cash dowry of two million twenty two thousand rupiah paid in cash!”

“I received the marriage and marriage of Sandrina Oktavina bint Beni Sasongko with the dowry in cash!”

“How are the witnesses, legitimate?”

“SAH!”

There were voices from all those attending Abe and Sansan's wedding. Syarif finally fulfilled the wishes of his son who wanted to hold a simple wedding party. The reception and the reception were held at Beni's residence. The invitation was not widely distributed, only to the neighbors and friends of Sansan and Abe and some colleagues Beni. Syarif did not even invite his faction's friends.

Sansan's chest thumped as Abe kissed her forehead after the two brides pinned each other's wedding rings. Nick was amazed to see the service of the wedding ceremony that had just happened. His hand gently rubbed his chest, a feeling like he had experienced it re-emerged. What happened to Nick didn't go out of sight. The girl didn't take her eyes off Nick.

“Jaga your view. A Muslim should not stare at the opposite sex who is not a muhrim for too long. You must know that because your father was a kyai plus the owner of the pesantren.”

When rolling his eyes lazy. No answer came out of his mouth. It felt lazy to respond to Arnav. I don't know what's wrong with that guy. From the very beginning, the man did not like him.

“Jaga is well in your sight, or I will order horse glasses for you.”

Arnav just left Bila with all his cahoots. There was a long breath when. Several times the girl filled her lung cavity in order to remove the irritation in her heart. He then took his foot to the buffet table. It was better to fill his stomach that suddenly felt hungry after hearing Arnav's words.

Nick, curious about how he felt, immediately looked for Diah. He needs to ask what is bothering him. The marriage contract, the feeling of having experienced being a prospective father, continues to mill around in his brain. Nick approached Diah who was sitting with Bryan and Eni.

“Mom.. can we talk?”

Diah got up from her seat and followed Nick slightly away from his seat. They chose to speak in the empty seats.

“Mom.. Have I ever been married? Do I have a wife?”

The look on Diah's face changed when Nick asked, but the woman hurriedly changed it. Nick kept looking at the mommy who still did not answer his question.

“Mom.”

“Never. You've never been married.”

“Really? But why do I feel like I've been in a situation like Abe? I even felt how happy it was to be a father-to-be when I saw doctor Reyhan and his pregnant wife.”

“That's just your feeling. You've never been married, Nick. If you don't believe just ask your friends.”

“You know what, mom. I don’t trust you. There’s so many things that you hide from me. Too many secrets. (what mommy knows. I don't trust you. There are too many things you hide from me. Too many secrets). I'm sure mommy asked all my friends to shut up. But it doesn’t matter. I’m gonna find out, no matter what (but that's not a problem. I'll find out, whatever it is).”

Nick turned his body around and walked away from Diah. His disappointment grew even more in the woman he called mommy. There are so many things that she hides from him.

“Azizah!”

Nick turned his head when he heard someone say a familiar name in his ear. His eyes stared wildly around him, looking for a man named Azizah.

“What's Nick?” ask Diah worried.

“Azizah. It's like I know him. Who is she mom? What does this have to do with me?”

“Azizah you mean the little boy?”

Diah points to the origin of a six-year-old boy who was taking ice cream accompanied by his mother. Nick's head shook his head, not Azizah.

“Azizahot.. Aziziah.. Iza. aaarrrggghh.”

“Nick!”

All attention was immediately drawn to Diah as the woman screamed for her child. When rushed over to see Nick was crouching while enduring the pain in his head. The girl crouched down in front of Nick then held both of her hands.

“Nick.. quiet Nick.. breathe deeply.. calm your mind.”.

Nick closed both his eyes. Slowly he began to do as Bila said. Slowly but surely, he calmed down. If you continue to guide Nick to draw and breathe slowly with both hands still holding Nick's hand.

“Ehem!!”

Reflex When releasing his handrails as soon as he hears a loud deheman from behind him. The girl turned her head. Arnav was standing behind him with a glass of water in his hand. Arnav thrusts the glass in his hand at Nick.

“Drink first, Nick.”

Nick took the glass from Arnav's hand and gulped it down. Denis helped Nick stand up and sat the man in the wrong seat near them. Anxiously, Diah approaches but Nick raises his hand, asking the woman not to come closer. Bryan took Diah a little bit away.

“Diah... I told you, you shouldn't have covered up what happened.”

“Then I have to how? Tell him everything that he has a wife? That her son-in-law was trying to keep them apart until they had an accident? You saw for yourself how he reacted when he heard the name Azizah. That's just the name that sounds, how about they meet. I don't want to risk losing it.”

“Not necessarily that will happen. He is like that because you keep covering the truth from him. See how he behaves to you? If you continue like this, he will only get further away from you.”

“I don't care. I don't care if Nick stays away from me or even hates me. The important thing is that he stays alive, that's enough for me.”

“I hope you're not as stubborn as this. Nick has every right to know about Iza, they're still tied to the wedding rope. Maybe it doesn't matter to Nick, but Iza? She is not a widow but also has no husband. Have you ever thought about that?”

“I'll get Nick to divorce Iza. He can't be in touch anymore with Iza.”

“Diah.”

Not caring about Bryan's protection, Diah leaves the man behind. Seeing Nick like that raised his worries again. Whatever way he'll throw Iza's name out of his son's life, forever. If necessary, he'll marry Nick to Bila. So Nick can start a more beautiful and quiet life without the presence of a past that only brings suffering.
