01x01 - Mak Comblang

[bunniefuu]

This is the dining table,

not a study desk.

A table's a table, Mom.

Are you trying to be funny, Mom?

Nina, Nina.

Why didn't you open the window?

What?

It's morning already, Mom?!

The clock is broken. Remember?

Why didn't you tell me?

I'm going to be late!

Mom!

Who wrote

the proclamation of independence

at Admiral Maeda's house?

Mom! It was Sayuti Melik, Mom.

I'm full, Mom.

You haven't showered yet?

No time, I'm late!

-May peace be upon you!

-May peace be upon you.

For you

-six homework papers, right?

-Yes.

Here you go.

-Thank you.

-You're welcome.

Fan.

Four of them, right?

They're all correct, right?

Have I ever been wrong?

I even copied your handwriting

as closely as possible.

Okay, thanks.

Thank you.

Nin.

I don't want History.

I only accept Physics assignments.

No.

It's not that.

Here.

Help me out, okay?

Please give this letter to a senior.

-Huh?

-Shh.

Don't shout.

Okay?

No way.

Please help me.

I only do homework services,

not being a middleman like this.

No, thanks.

Help out a friend, Nin.

Besides, I don't know him.

Aldo.

Why don't you give it to him yourself?

If I were brave,

I would've given it to him.

I wouldn't be asking for your help, Nin.

No.

Besides, Put

aren't there many guys who like you?

Why do you

like someone who may not like you back?

Who knows

maybe if I give him this letter

he might like me, too?

Okay?

Nin.

Nina!

Here.

Are you all too lazy to do your homework?

Isn't it a profit for you?

-So much.

-Thanks.

You're welcome.

What are you doing here?

I want to ask about the letter.

Isn't Aldo's house nearby?

Huh?

Really? I've never seen him

around here.

Why would I lie?

I've waited in front of his house before.

For two hours.

Huh?

I thought I was brave enough

to give him the letter myself.

Turns out I'm not.

But still

why go all the way to his house,

when you could give it to him at school?

Well, I'd be embarrassed, Nin.

What if I get caught

and then teased by my friends?

Nin

this is a sign

that you're the right person

to match me with him.

I'll pay you.

How much?

A thousand.

Five thousand.

Two thousand.

Six thousand.

Three thousand.

-Seven thousand.

-Nin

Negotiation usually goes one up, one down.

Neither of them went up!

Fine.

Forget it!

Nin! Nin!

Why are you looking at Aldo?

I'm confused.

As far as his looks

he's not that handsome, right?

Why is my friend so crazy about him?

Maybe it's not that Aldo,

but the other one, the new student.

That's him.

He's handsome.

Many girls like him.

I like him too.

Nin, I have to go to class.

Please?

Two thousand.

Really?

Yes!

Excuse me!

Who are you looking for?

Is this Aldo's house?

Yes, it is. I'm Aldo.

Can I help you?

I want to

offer homework services.

Huh?

Hm?

Oh, you're Nina, right?

The famous homework hire

for second year students.

Yes.

Can you do third year homework?

I can

I can try.

But I don't have any homework right now.

Oh

I see.

Oh, yeah, how did you know where I live?

Coincidentally,

my house is not far from here.

Turn left, number eight.

Alright, I should get going.

-Thank you for the offer.

-No problem.

I knew your house

because I saw your bike.

Oh yeah, I forgot.

Turns out I do have homework.

Oh.

Yes.

Can you do it?

Yes, I can, senior.

Just call me Aldo.

When is it due?

It's for tomorrow.

Okay.

Okay.

I almost forgot.

How much?

Who's Aldo?

Ugh!

A hero?

Mom!

Nin!

A shower?

Surprising.

Are you okay?

Nin!

Mom, why haven't you fixed the clock?

Yikes!

What should I do, Mom?

Oh no!

Just run then!

Run? But I just showered, Mom.

What else can you do?

May peace be upon you.

May peace be upon you.

May peace be upon you.

Oh no, it's off.

Ride with me, so we can arrive on time.

Psst, is that Aldo?

Ugh, Mom!

Is that okay with you?

It's fine. Hurry up!

Oh, a senior student.

I'm off now, Mom.

Mom!

Be careful, Aldo!

Yes, Ma'am.

Stop. Let me off. Just here.

This is your homework.

See you.

Nina!

What is this?

Hey.

-Oh!

-Hey, are you in love?

With who?

No. Sorry, sorry.

It's okay.

Besides, it's pencil, it can be erased.

Is it in other books too?

Ouch!

What about the letter?

Did you give it to him?

Yes.

But he wasn't home yesterday.

So, I left it

with the homeowner.

Thank you, Nina!

Sorry, so I

It's fine.

Why?

It's free.

Really?

Nina, you're so kind. Thank you!

Nina.

Let's go home together!

See you!

Oh, I forgot to pay.

So, how much? You haven't told me.

Oh, it's free for seniors.

The first time is free.

Oh, really.

Are you sure?

Yes.

Were there any mistakes in my work?

Yes.

But, just the one.

Besides, it's weird

if everything is correct.

You're good at copying my handwriting.

That's professionalism, senior.

Just Aldo.

Yeah.

Nin, pass me the pliers.

Done, try it.

I'll try it.

Hey!

Ouch!

I was startled.

But there are two mistakes.

It's intentional

-I did it on purpose.

-On purpose?

Did you see that?

He smiled.

Whose book did you draw in?

Oh, yeah.

-Sir. Two bowls, please!

-Yes.

Nina.

Yes?

We've been seeing

a lot of each other lately,

and I'm becoming more sure that

I like you.

Will you be my girlfriend?

What do you think?

Okay.

But

let's keep it a secret for now.

Why?

No reason.

Let's just keep it a secret.

Especially at school.

May peace be upon you.

May peace be upon you.

Where have you been, young lady?

Just hanging around.

Hanging around.

Do you mean on a date?

Forget it, I need to do my homework,

because Aldo is coming over tonight.

You should be dating on the weekend,

not during the week.

Ugh.

Just let it be.

Jealous, sis?

Nin!

Aldo is here.

Alright, alright.

You look beautiful already.

Wow, you smell so good.

Are you selling perfume now?

What's this?

Just open it.

This is to help with your side hustle.

This is so nice.

Of course.

Thank you.

You're welcome.

What's wrong?

Nothing

I'm just confused about

why you want to keep

our relationship a secret at school?

Do! You, you

-You need to hide!

-Huh? Why?

My big brother is here!

Aren't you an only child?

Cousin.

Just wait here, don't come out.

Don't go anywhere, okay?

Okay, but I'll be safe, right?

Yes, just wait here.

Put!

Isn't that

Aldo's motorcycle?

Huh?

No!

Why are you here?

I'm feeling sad, Nin.

I've had no response from him.

What do you mean no response?

Well, he should know who I am.

I wrote it in the letter.

Putri, Second Year Social Two.

But he was like

indifferent.

You were right.

He doesn't like me.

Why did I write that letter anyway?

Why are you overthinking this, Put?

Perhaps, he's just

the shy type?

So what should I do?

Well, nothing.

Just wait.

If there's still no response,

then it's true he doesn't like me.

I'll be embarrassed

if I see him at school.

Why should you be embarrassed?

Besides, he is graduating soon,

so you won't see him again, right?

At school?

-Can I have some water?

-Hey!

My big brother is inside.

Big brother?

Cousin. Cousin.

Besides, he's been grumbling all day.

That

Hey! I'm scared he'll come out here.

Don't you want to go home instead?

Get me a water first.

Get it at home, before he scolds you.

-Alright then.

-Yes.

-Drink at home, okay.

Nin.

I swear, it really looks like

Aldo's motorcycle.

Bye.

Nin.

Why did you tell Aldo

to hide in the kitchen?

Shh, Mom.

Check.

Tono keeps giving

the wrong answer in his homework.

His marks are good though.

What is this?

Whose work is this?

What is going on?

Nina, that little brat.

Nina!

No negotiating!

Ma'am, please.

Change the punishment to something else.

I'll do anything, Ma'am.

Okay?

Yes, Ma'am. Please, Ma'am.

If you keep bargaining and being annoying,

I'll punish you even harder.

Starting now.

Ugh, it's hot.

Yeah, yeah. Nina loves Aldo.

Yeah

Looks like we have a new couple.

Are you mad at me?

It's not your fault.

Sir.

Can you excuse me for a moment?

-Oh, sure.

-Excuse me, Sir.

Wow

-So sweet.

-Staring into each other's eyes.

-So cute, right?

-Aw

Put!

Put.

Put! Put!

Put.

Wait, let me explain

No need to explain!

You're cruel.

It's not like that, Put.

What is it like?

You're the only one who knew about this.

But what did you do?

You lied to me.

I know you never

gave him the letter, right?

If you liked him,

you should've told me.

Not like this.

I'm embarrassed, Nin.

I regret being friends with you.

No!

She's not coming out yet, Ma'am?

No.

Sorry, Aldo.

It's okay, Ma'am.

Maybe she will see me tomorrow.

Alright then

-I better go, Mam.

-Okay.

-Take care.

-Yes, Ma'am.

-May peace be upon you.

-May peace be upon you.

What's wrong?

Are you fighting?

The relationship will be hard

if it keeps going like this.

Poor boy.

He comes here every day,

and you don't even see him.

Tell me what's going on.

It's nothing, Mom.

I'll go to school tomorrow.

Hey, tomorrow is a holiday.

Don't let this drag on.

I'm afraid you'll fall behind

in your studies.

Yes, Mom.

So that's why you didn't want

anyone to know we were dating?

Yes.

Sorry, okay?

I lied to you.

You did nothing wrong, Nin.

Ever since I transferred

I've liked you.

That's why,

I knew you were Nina,

the one who does

other people's homework.

Liar.

No, really.

That's why,

back when you offered to do my homework,

I made it up.

Huh?

So, you didn't have any homework?

None.

I did it for free,

and it turns out it was a lie.

But if I didn't make it up,

we wouldn't be dating.

Here.

From Putri.

I didn't read it at all, I swear.

Anyway, this letter

should be in your hands.

Even if things are different now.

So, it'll be fair to Putri.

Put.

What?

I know I was wrong.

I just want to explain.

Even though

you might not want to hear it.

Your letter

I gave it to Aldo.

Do I look like I care?

-Put.

-What now, Nin?

I'm not asking you

to be friends with me again.

Because I was wrong.

But, please

I want to apologize.

At least I did what you asked, right?

So what do you want?

Do you want me to say "Thank you"?

I got your letter.

I've read it.

Thank you.

But

Sorry, I can't reciprocate your feelings.

Nin, we need your help.

We'll pay you double to be our

matchmaker.

What do you think?

I only accept Physics assignments.

No, it's not that.

Yes!

Oh, a senior student.

If you keep bargaining and being annoying,

I'll punish you even harder!
