Ranula (Full History of Wounds)
New Life

Zoya looked at Aunt Nor who was concocting the potion she had just made for prince Erlangga. It was late enough and they all rested in the little hut that was covered with weeds. Prince Erlangga was seen looking at his sword and did not know what he was doing. Sometimes Zoya is really surprised to see the man. Was he not in pain with that wound??? To this day Zoya still sees him.

"The prince drank first" said aunt Nor, handing over a glass of bamboo tubes for their drinking. Did people in the past use something like this? Just then at dinner, all of Aunt Nor's cutlery was made of wood and bamboo. Zoya even felt aggrieved when she wanted to drink, she was so afraid that her lips would be injured by the bamboo rim.

Zoya looked back at Prince Erlangga who was drinking the potion. That handsome face was just flat without any expression, even Zoya who looked grimacing saw it.

"Why is your face like that?" ask prince Erlangga

Zoya slightly gasped and shook her head slowly.

"Is that not bitter? I saw aunt mixing the grass inside her" said Zoya innocently making Prince Erlangga immediately snorted sultry while aunt Nor seemed to laugh.

"That's not grass, that's a leaf I collected in the forest as a medicine to heal wounds from within" aunt Nor said

Zoya immediately ber oh ria heard her.

"Now we should rest. You can share a bed with me. It looks like it will fit both of us" Aunt Nor said, pointing to the spot Zoya was sitting at.

Zoya immediately looked at the place, she smiled bitterly and nodded. What can be done, actually for this seat alone is so hard, especially for sleeping.

Aunt Nor went up and took something from the shelf that was made as a storage place for her goods. The shelves are also of wood. If it's all from wood, what will not be eaten by termites, Zoya's inner.

"It's a blanket for you" Aunt Nor handed Zoya a slightly rough piece of cloth. It looks like it's from the bark

"Thank you aunt, don't bother to bother" said Zoya who did not feel good to see so his attention this old woman to him. At home, Zoya rarely gets attention from her mother, because her mother is very busy working.

"It's okay. Let's go to bed. Tomorrow morning I have to get up quickly to sell the harvest to the market" he said as he climbed and lay next to Zoya.

Zoya smiled and nodded. He turned to look at Prince Erlangga who seemed to not care, even lying in his place.

Slowly Zoya's land also lies on the wood which is only covered with thin mats. It hurts, but how else. They sleep by tilting each body because the bed is small and actually only fit for one person.

Zoya confronts her body towards Prince Erlangga who seems to have also begun to fall asleep. A man like her is only a few years different from Zoya. His face was handsome, though dry and oily, his jaw was firm and his nose was very pointed. His thin lips and sharp eyes really make him truly worthy of being called a prince. I don't know what makes Zoya get stuck in this age and meet these two good people. Zoya hopes that if she wakes up later, she will be able to return to her age, the era where she became Zoya, not Ana.

...

The next morning, Zoya starts to slowly open her eyes. His body began to move and squirmed slightly. It hurts all and is so painful.

"Emmmm what time is it, why bi Jum did not wake me up. Habit deh" grumbled Zoya who had not opened her eyes wide. But when his eyes were clear, he immediately gasped in shock and immediately moved in haste. Zoya looked at her surroundings for a moment, but not long after that she immediately looked down miserably with glassy eyes.

"It turns out this isn't a dream" he murmured so grimly.

Zoya looked around again, deserted. Where's aunt Nor and prince Erlangga??? Zoya was confused to look at the small room that was no longer anyone, but she knew if it was noon because the sunlight was warm and entered through the gap of the wood gap.

But...

Hold still. Zoya looked at her bed and the bed in front of her. Didn't she sleep next night with Aunt Nor?? Why is it here now, at Prince Erlangga's place??? Is he walking while sleeping??

No. nope. Zoya shook her head strongly. He's not that kind of person. Then why did he move here???

"Who loves me" muttered Zoya while tying back her messy hair.

Already, rather than dizziness he better look for the two people, lest he be left in the woods alone like this.

Zoya came out of the small hut with eyes that grimaced with glare, it was already very day. And Zoya could see if Prince Erlangga was sitting on a chair looking at a bird in a cage. A very beautiful green bird. Just like his handsome guy. Geez, Zoya's eyes are weird.

"The slackers" murmured prince Erlangga

"Who is lazy" asked Zoya while sitting next to Prince Erlangga and watching the green bird.

"It's noon and you just woke up. Sleep is like a dead pig" said Prince Erlangga.

Zoya immediately pursed her lips at a glance and looked at the chest of Prince Erlangga who was still filled with Aunt Nor's potion.

"Is that still hurting?" ask Zoya.

"No" answered Prince Erlangga.

"It's a liar, obviously the wound is wide and numerous" Zoya said.

Prince Erlangga snorted a smile and shook his head. He turned to Zoya and looked at her with those sharp eyes. Makes Zoya feel awkward being looked at like that.

"For a prince like me, wounds like this are common" said Prince Erlangga.

Zoya frowned and fell silent for a moment.

"From the books I've read, isn't a prince in his palace?" ask Zoya.

"It was for the prince who was timid and did not want to blend in with the people. As a future king, a prince should be able to protect his people and also mingle with them. It's better than silence. Boring" replied the prince Erlangga who turned his head to the green bird.

"Then why are you afraid to be seen by people last night, if you're used to mingling with them you won't hide and go in the back" Zoya said.

"You don't understand. As a prince and crown prince, of course I also have many enemies and people who do not like me. It cannot be that easy for me to show myself before them" replied Prince Erlangga again.

Zoya nodded slowly as she looked far ahead as only the forest surrounded this small hut.

It seems, he had indeed entered into the story of a kingdom. And the story will be confusing.

"You want to clean up or not. I want the river. You must not know the way later" invited prince Erlangga. Even he had stood up and looked towards Zoya who looked up at him.

"Mandi, atriver. With you???" zoya asked with a flabbergasted face.

But arrive

cletuk

Zoya grimaced as Prince Erlangga flicked her forehead.

"You think I'm a pervert. I'm just dropping off, and after that I'll be back" replied prince Erlangga.

"If you don't want to be up to it. Don't just sleep inside because you haven't cleansed yourself since last night" she said again as she walked away limping from Zoya.

Zoya looks doubtful, but a second later she immediately ran after the prince Erlangga. There's no way she's not taking a shower. Even now he felt that his body was really sticky and smelly.

"Prince wait!!"
