Crown Prince Sanggana
Sedupa 15: Two Young Seven Concubines
*Seteru Two Islands (Sedupa)*
Mama Mama and Serak Gelegar know that the young man they know named Tadayu who holds the title of Prince Hand of Power, the son of the Egg Guard Elder, has high magic. Therefore, in following him need to be careful and must use devotion.
Quite the distance they traveled in following Tadayu. Outside the Village of Berunuk. During his journey, Tadayu showed no signs that he suspected anything behind him. That's a sign that Mama and Serak Gelegar's prosecution has been safe so far.
Until finally, Tadayu arrived at a small forest that was still at the foot of Mount Ibu. In that forest, in a place that was quite hidden, there was a small hut whose ingredients showed novelty. That means that the hut was not built long ago.
Nah! Nah! Nah!
The sound of wood being hit. However, Mimi Mama and her grandfather could not see the activities carried out by people who were not Tadayu. Large trees that had dense hanging roots blocked their view. There was another person whom Tadayu met at that place.
Tadayu was seen talking to someone behind a tree trunk not far from the hut.
The person Tadayu spoke to was a mustachioed young man of equal age. The man did not dress up, revealing his exotic body with burly muscles, but not too big. It was just a black knee-length shirt. He was treading pieces of wood to make firewood. Just a leak, the long-haired young man ala King Dangdut in the 80s was named Gandang Duko.
“It looks like someone is following you, Tadayu,” said Gandang Duko, showing her class as a young swordsman.
“Iya. However, his distant position will not hear our conversation,” Tadayu said casually, then he sat on a pile of wooden slats that had been split and arranged.
“Then how are your plans above? Succeed?” gandang Duko asked as her hand did not stop swinging the one-eyed, short-handled axe.
“As per estimate. Raja Bandelikan family so like me with my help. Even I was invited tomorrow morning to the Peak Palace with the Sack Oars. Would you like to come, Gandang?”
“If I come along, I act as what?” ask Gandang Duko.
“As my bodyguard or my abdiku,” Tadayu replied.
“Monkey!” maki Gandang Duko throws a stick at his best friend.
“Hahaha!” tadayu laughed without trying to dodge the throw. However, the wood bounced off before it hit his face. Then he said, “In Berunuk Village there are toys. Maybe you're interested.”
“What's up? Don't you say play Keong Rise From the Grave. I throw your axe later,” said Gandang Duko sewot first.
“Hahaha!” laughter from Tadayu.
As both island children who grew up on the beach, they both often played Keong Rise From the Grave as children, on the sidelines of heavy training.
“When I came down from Puncak Palace, I saw that the Bangkai Prince was caged by a light ball of magic. I don't know whose wisdom. I wanted to kill him, but let him enjoy the pain. He and his soldiers were at a loss to destroy the ball of light. I heard the soldiers were going up to report to the king about it. I could have reappeared as a savior in front of the king, but it would have been suspicious. Can't you pretend to be the one who stopped by the harbor and just passed by?”
“After burning the Palace, I also only fight wood and boil eggs,” said Gandang Duko who by itself revealed who really burned the Peak Palace.
Gandang Duko then got up from her seat and walked towards the hut. Thus, Mimi Mama and Serak Gelegar could see the figure of the second person. Both are just beards without a sound when recognizing the figure of Gandang Duko.
Tadayu then stood up and looked up at the sapodilla fruit on the tree.
“Sawomu seems to be ripe!” tadayu shouted to his best friend who was already inside the hut.
The shout made Mama Mimi and Serak Gelegar able to hear Tadayu's words.
“Throw it if you want!” shouted Gandang Duko who understood the meaning of his best friend.
Tadayu then picked up a log. Then he throws like a boy when he throws a neighbor mango.
The bags!
The wood darted and cut off the stalk of a bunch of sapodilla fruit. Understandably sapodilla in ancient times the tree is tall.
If a sapodilla fell straight down, the wood thrown kept darting around and falling in the thickets of the bushes, right where Mimi Mama and her grandfather were lurking. Both surprised. Almost the wood hit the head of Serak Gelegar.
That made Mimi Mama quickly give the eyebrow code to her grandfather.
Clap claps!
The two men disappeared from his position.
From the hut came out Gandang Duko who was wearing a black shirt that had not been rubbed. His face looks wet and his hair is damp, but fragrant wood. I don't know what the name of the wood is.
“I have to go back to the village of Konegan,” Tadayu said.
“Good. I will chase after that scout,” said Gandang Duko.
“Better do not deal with them if not necessary. Looks like his magic is quite qualified,” message Tadayu.
“I just want to know, who they are so interested in following you. Maybe they are royal people who are in front of you they are good, but behind the intention of stabbing,” said Gandang Duko.
“Alright,” says Tadayu.
Claps!
Tadayu just disappeared. However, Gandang Duko knew which way his best friend was going.
Claps!
Next, Gandang Duko disappeared like a forest dedemit. Maybe he was the forest dedemit.
Meanwhile, on his way home to Mother's Shop, Mimi Mama and Serak Gelegar talked about the two young men they knew.
“Do Tadayu and Gandang Duko know that we are stalking them, Kek?” ask Mimi Mama.
“Sounds to know. What do you think he throws sapodilla fruit if he can jump pick it? But, it seems they are not interested to know who is stalking,” replied Gandang Duko.
“They must be planning something on this island,” by Mimi Mama.
“Or may have something to do with the Princess of the Straight Line,” Suggested Hoarse Gelegar.
“What's with his sister?”
“About less than a full moon ago, Seven Concubines were appalled by the news that the Straight Line Princess had been kidnapped and raped. However, it is not yet known who did it. It is possible that the existence of Tadayu and Gandang Duko here is related to that problem,”, Gelegar said.
“Why can't I hear about that, Cake?” ask Mimi Mama.
“Because you're a child.”
“Small stuff, but big mind,” protest Mimi Mama.
“Hahaha!” Hoarse Gelegar just laughed at the words of his grandson.
“But strangely, isn't Princess Straight Line her magic is quite high, even though it's still below me. How could she possibly be raped without knowing who did it?” ask Mimi Mama.
“That's because he was made unconscious first,” replied Hoarse Gelegar.
“The rape must be cut. Dare to rape but so cowardly to show his face,” denounced Mimi Mama.
Until finally, it did not feel they had returned to Mother's Shop. When they searched for the existence of Goddess Ara and the entourage, it turned out that they were no longer there.
“Hah! We are left behind, even though we have not eaten grilled orange fish,” said Mimi Mama surprised.
“We better just wrap the fish, then we go home to Seven Concubines,” suggestion Hoarse Gelegar.
“Alright,” agree Mimi Mama.
Although Mimi Mama is a grandchild, but the little boy has a higher position than his grandfather. Don't ask why that happened.
Unbeknownst to the granddad, there was someone watching them from afar. That person was none other than Gandang Duko.
The mustachioed young man even waited for Mama Mimi's activities and Hoarse Gelegar at Mother's Shop.
After receiving an order of grilled orange fish, Mama Mimi and Gelegar Serak left the tavern and headed towards the harbor. Gandang Duko followed. (BH)
