Ranula (Full History of Wounds)
Apply to be a Palace Dayang

The next day...

Zoya and Aunt Nor are already in front of the royal palace fence. Today Nor's aunt took Zoya to the palace. Actually, he is heavy when it comes to parting with Zoya, but aunt Nor can not let Zoya continue to be in her house. Because sooner or later, the pirates as well as the upper caste people or nobles will definitely come and take Zoya away. So it is better if Zoya is in the palace and becomes a lady-in-waiting. Although aunt Nor is also quite worried too if Zoya's beauty will threaten herself. Aunt Nor is very hopeful, if prince Erlangga can take good care of Zoya.

"Auntie. Thank you for a month and aunty has been so good to me" said Zoya. She was so sad to have to part from Aunt Nor. Even now his eyes are glass.

"I'll be fine Ana. You should also take good care of yourself there. If you're in trouble, you can meet Juna there. Ordinary maids and warriors could freely meet" Aunt Nor replied.

"Of course aunt, there's no prince Er...."

Zoya's words instantly came to a halt as aunt Nor silenced her mouth.

"Ana.. listen to me" aunt Nor asked as she looked around them. Where there are so many girls the age of Zoya who come and want to enter the palace.

"Don't even look for her in there" aunt Nor said, sounding so serious. Zoya immediately frowned and looked at aunt Nor in surprise.

"Why?" ask Zoya.

"Ana...we lowly caste is strictly forbidden to be close to noble people, especially with him who is a crown prince" said aunt Nor. He spoke with a little whisper.

"Don't even look for her. And if you accidentally meet you should be able to keep your attitude. If you act like normal to her, then you could be in Ana's danger" Aunt Nor added.

"Then I have to pretend I don't know her, did auntie?" ask Zoya. And aunt Nor nodded immediately.

"You must bow down and respect him. You must remember, don't look at her as usual, if you meet her you must bow your gaze as you did to the Duke's prince. You understand" said aunt Nor.

"Is it that dangerous?" ask Zoya again.

"Ana. let alone to meet, you dare to look at it that it has put you in danger, you can be beheaded and imprisoned if you behave presumptuously. You should be able to keep your attitude there later" aunt Nor said so seriously. Even Zoya got goosebumps hearing that. If to look at it is not allowed, then how can he meet prince Erlangga.

Sia in vain would she enter the palace if she could not meet prince Erlangga? Do not play with swords, just to meet it is not allowed.

"Don't think too much about not, just hurry in. At least if you're in the palace, you'll be safe Ana" Aunt Nor said.

Zoya turned towards the entrance gate of the palace, where dozens of girls who had been waiting in line with her had started to enter.

"But aunt...." Zoya is hesitating now.

"Outside is very dangerous for you. If you can keep your attitude, then I'm sure, you'll be safe in there. After all, prince Erlangga will definitely meet you once in a while. He won't ignore you there. You just have to wait for him to come, while you don't come once" Aunt Nor said.

Zoya sighed for a moment, and immediately smiled while nodding thinly.

"Alright, then I'll go first aunt. See you next time" said Zoya and she hugged Aunt Nor.

"See you, Ana.." Aunt Nor's reply.

Zoya smiled, and for the last time she looked at Aunt Nor, and after that she immediately walked into the palace. Follows a group of girls who also want to propose to be a lady in the palace.

Why are they so enthusiastic???

Isn't the ladyboy the same as the maid???

Zoya sighed with resignation. Miris once lived her life in this age. She was like being reborn in a very miserable life, into a lowly caste, in the care of pirates who had always wanted to kidnap her, and now had to queue up just to be a palace lady. Oh my....

But yasudah, Zoya only needs to follow the flow. Wouldn't he always be able to see Prince Erlangga? Although he could not meet and play again, but at least he could still see and look at Prince Erlangga even though only from a distance.

Zoya follows the steps of the girls who are brought into a building. It seems like this has not entered the palace area, it is still outside but in a place like a building with red bricks. Inside it was like a vast hall.

There they are examined one by one by a soldier? I don't know if Zoya doesn't know how to tell the difference. Also there are some men and also some beautiful women who wear like kemben but with a long skirt that expands. Very pretty clothes.

The queues of these girls were so many, and they had to be checked one by one. Zoya is in the back row, it is certain that she will wait so long.

Zoya turned her head to the side, looking at a beautiful girl who was also waiting in line. Like her she was of the middle caste, evident by the clothes she wore. Her face was quite pretty, but it looked dry because it was not groomed. Yes, in the past there was no scincare.

But suddenly the girl turned to Zoya when she felt noticed. Zoya gasped and immediately smiled awkwardly. Is this girl going to get angry???

"Hi... Do you want to be a ladyboy too? Hehe" asked Zoya with her strange face.

"Yes, of course, what do you think I'm waiting here for" said the girl iu.

Zoya smiled and nodded at a glance. Proud as hell, just asked as well but his face was so sniffy.

"You're so beautiful, I just saw you, are you from Baloko village?" ask the girl who is on Zoya's left.

Zoya gasped, she immediately turned her head to the sound. A girl with mature brown skin, yet quite sweet and unsightly.

"Oh, thank you, but you're beautiful too" Zoya replied in a stale manner.

The girl laughed and nodded slowly

"You don't mock me. I can see you're so beautiful, you'll definitely be accepted without selection again" the girl said.

"Is his selection so strict?" ask Zoya

"Let's see, but from what I hear we're just being asked about our abilities and talents. And again, the parachute also supports to enter the palace" replied the girl.

"Waahh. I don't even have any ability" Zoya said, laughing amusedly, making the girl laugh as well.

"It's okay, you don't have any talent, I'm sure you're definitely welcome" the girl replied.

"You are so sure" said Zoya

"Of course, you're beautiful. Even since then you're just the most beautiful girl among us" the girl said again.

Zoya laughed again, embarrassed to hear that.

"Don't do that, you're also beautiful and very sweet. What's yourname?" ask Zoya

"I'm Gendis" replied the girl.

"Oh hi Gendis, I'm Ana" Zoya said as she extended her hand to Gendis. Which seems cool enough to be a friend.

"Oh Ana. I hope we can be good friends" Gendis hoped.

"Of course, I'd be so happy if you'd be friends with me. I didn't have any friends here" Zoya said.

"Where are you from?" ask Gendis

"Baloko Village" Zoya replied.

"Truly, I'm also from that village. Why have I never seen you? Do you live in a coastal area near the forest?" ask Gendis.

"Yes, I never get out of the house and never go anywhere. Going far away is also new this time" Zoya replied.

"Waahh.your mother must have been afraid that you were kidnapped by pirates instead" Gendis said.

Zoya nodded quickly.

"Yes, so I was told to propose to be a lady-in-waiting and enter the palace" Zoya replied.

"You're right, so am I. The pirates have troubled us quite a few lowly castes over the years. I even had to keep myself locked up at home, and just like you. Just this time I came out" said Gendis.

"I don't understand why they're so desperate to kidnap a country girl" Zoya muttered.

"I heard, the pirates are noblemen's men" whispered Gendis.

"You know where it's coming from?" ask Zoya

"My brother, he's one of the new soldiers in the palace" replied Gendis.

Zoya nodded slowly.

This is quite interesting, is not the prince Erlangga always looking for the mastermind behind the kidnapping of girls, so he often went out of the palace? And if indeed the masterminds are nobles, aren't they people in the palace themselves????
