THE NOURA VAN KEMMERS

Nyai Sumiyati

The woman who came from the land of pasundan had not long set foot in Batavia. His introduction to Heintje began when he was also a sinden who was playing at the celebration of the inauguration of the factory owned by a close friend Heintje in Cianjur.

From the moment he first saw her, Heintje was immediately captivated, and expressed his desire to bring the woman to live with him in Batavia.

Heintje is married and has three children. It's just that his wife prefers to occupy their home in Buitenzorg. Batavia's sometimes hot weather makes it not at home. And so are his children. In Buitenzorg, Hentje Van der Boon owns several farms and plantations. Everyone knew him as a kind-hearted landlord and loved to share.

As a Nyai, Sumiyati always tried to please Heintje. Although Heintje was not young anymore, but the man was very royal and gave everything he wanted.

Two years into Nyai, Heintje had given him a lot of jewelry, money, and a piece of land in Cianjur. A bit of worry arose in Sumiyati, which was the fear that Heintje's wife and children would come to the house and find out about her being a Nyai. He couldn't imagine. Nor would he be willing to lose the source of his wealth.

"Tomorrow I'll give you the money. I have business in Kong koan's office around ten in the morning. But before that, I'll take the time to go to De Javasche Bank first to take the money" Heintje said.

"alright...I will accompany you" Heintje responded.

"no need. You wait here. I won't be long." Of course Heintje strongly objected if Johans Alois accompanied him to De Javasche Bank, want to put where his face if later in the Bank he met with fellow businessmen and they saw the whereabouts of Johans Alois, the former inmate corruption case is with him.

"I won't leave your house until you give me the money. You don't have to be scared. I'll return the money someday if I'm successful again" Johans Alois said.

Heintje just nodded. He just wants Johans to immediately leave his current home and no longer bother him.

Heintje led Johans to the dinner table. Breakfast is on the table. There are many food menus. Starting from meat sandwich, bread meises, milk, coffee, fried rice, Gandjellrell cake, baked macaroni, potato croquettes, Brunebon soup, and Onbijtkoek cake.

"Well, that's amazing. There's so much food. Did you spend all that?" ask Johans while looking at the table full of appetizing dishes. It felt like he hadn't eaten those foods for a long time.

"Did you deliberately prepare this much food for me?"

"Not really. I used to eat breakfast with a menu like this. If it doesn't run out, I'll give it to the workers in this house" Heintje said, sipping his coffee.

Then Nyai Sumiyati appeared from inside the room and walked gracefully towards the dining table. Smiling, he sat down next to Heintje and started preparing the plate and spoon for the man.

Again Johans Alois rippled to see the woman. Ssnyuman woman is like containing magic. So tempting. Like there is an incredible sensation that makes anyone feel at home looking at this woman. Hentje should just bend its knees.

Looks like the beautiful women in Macao Po are less attractive when compared to this woman. Johans, who had visited Macao Po several times and saw a line of beautiful women there to bet, nothing matched the charm of this indigenous woman.

Heintje grabbed the hand of the native woman and kissed her many times. As if to show Johans Alois how lucky he is to have such a beautiful woman.

After breakfast, Heintje van der Boon took the woman by the hand and walked to the car. The goal is to go to the offices of Kong koan and De Javasche Bank. Johans Alois was asked to wait at home.

The purpose of the Dutch established the DJB was to overcome the economic problems that befell the Dutch East Indies Colony after the VOC went bankrupt.

However, post-independence, Indonesia nationalized the DJB. The Nationalization of De Javasche Bank was carried out during the Sukiman Cabinet government.

* MACAO Po is a prostitution localization located in front of Beos Station or now called Jakarta Kota Station. This prostitution area is the first in Jakarta and the building is a level house in front of Beos Station.

It took the name Macao Pao because the prostitutes were imported from Portugal and China.

These prostitutes were brought in to serve the Dutch army around Binnenstadt (around the city of Inten at the Jakarta Kota public transport terminal now).

The Macao Po area is also a stopover for the Chinese who are looking for entertainment.

Not surprisingly, Macao Po is synonymous with high-class localization and even visitors are mostly VOC officials. 

The officials who went there are also famous as black officials who like to play women and corruption.
