The Duke of the country vs Sekar Kedaton
29. Trapped in the situation.

Bang Risang pondered with a cigarette. He was flipping through hearts and minds, all just for Yesha. The wife needs adequate treatment in order to recover.

"Kangmas..!!" Sapa Ratih's.

Bang Risang quietly did not answer the greeting of Ratih, the woman who will be the honey of the wife brought a cup of coffee for him.

After laying the coffee cup, Ratih stepped away.

"Wait...!!"

Ratih stood in his place without turning his head towards Bang Risang. "Are you happy with a situation like this?"

Train silence without sound.

"I don't want to open my heart to other women. I just love Yesha."

"Chew Kangmas, Ratih understands."

"You don't have to expect more..!!" Bang Risang's.

"Trainer to understand Kangmas. Ratih did not dare to hope for more." Answer Ratih then immediately passed.

Bang Risang was slightly jolted at the Ratih who had always avoided him.

...

There was guilt tucked into Bang Risang's heart, however, Ratih had been caring for Yesha as long as she was not around. He also apologized to the girl.

"The Sultanate will send you, ndoro ayu Yesha and Raden Risang out of the island.and you who refuse will be exiled to the island princess until the end of life."

"If Kangmas Raden can get out of this sultanate with Ndoro ayu.. Train ready Romo..!!" Ratih.

"You should not be stupid, after arriving at the island princess.you will not bring all the luxuries that you have ever felt, you alone live your life.no signal, television and others." Romo came to emotions with his son's decision.

"Kangmas Raden and ndoro ayu have suffered a lot. This time let Ratih give in." Answer Ratih.

Bang Risang leaned back limp. His mind was turned back unbecoming. 'What should I do, if I am selfish and keep Yesha.. The coach will suffer for a lifetime. Unaccompanied living by his side. But if I marry Ratih, Yesha will be hurt.'

"alright.. Romo will issue a decree."

"Wait..!!" Bang Risang entered the private room of Romo. "I am willing to marry Ndoro ayu Kamaratih. Now also..!!"

"Kangmas doesn't need to be like that. Everything can be done........."

"No Dinda. Kangmas has decided to marry you."

...

"Already Kangmas. Ratih opposes everything and will not take Kangmas from Yesha's mother." Ratih said as Bang Risang asked to speak with four eyes.

"By sacrificing yourself for life?? You deserve to be happy."

"Born in the sultanate world never makes happy for our people Kangmas, everything is arranged and directed without hearing our voices. Our hearts are strong enough to accept everything." Answer Ratih.

"How about we live as a sister despite the marriage bond until later you find the right figure for you, at that time Mas will release you..!!" Bang Risang tries to make a deal between himself and Ratih. "We make a covenant, Mas will leave you whole. AA ampai someday, there is a man who becomes your life companion.who has the right to take it."

Papa Igo got news from Bang Risang about the development that his son was experiencing. He took a deep breath. It was a cold midnight in the maternity hospital. Papa Igo could not hide his restlessness and uneasiness.

Opa Ricky was there. He also took Papa Igo's phone. "You've made up your mind about your decision?" Ask Opa.

"It's Opa, all for Yesha's sake. I have already confirmed for the third time Yesha's mental readiness in this matter." Answer Bang Risang.

"There are two hearts that will be hurt even though both of them have said to be sincere and you also have to be mentally prepared for it." Opa Ricky's words. "Opa is a man who has ever felt double, only the events we experience are much different."

"I'll be careful opa."

"We are just ordinary humane le. We can be careful but circumstances that make us pinched and trapped. You married her. His birth and inner life are your absolute duties as a husband. If she is a Sholehah woman, then you have no right to treat your wife badly let alone make her insulted. You khan le religious people."

From his place, Bang Risang looked at Ratih who was watching his sleep Yesha. prepared everything that Yesha needed. Soon a man entered Yesha's room.

"Mbok, please take care of ndoro ayu yes. quickly contact me if ndoro ayu need something." Ratih's Message.

"Gusti Ayu. Gusti Ayu's room is also ready. Monggo Gusti Ayu ngaturaken Kanjeng Raden Mas badhe tilem (Please Gusti Ayu take Raden Mas to sleep. ).

Ratih nodded then immediately came out. Bang Risang turned off his phone.

For a while Bang Risang and Ratih were still silent. Bang Risang had glanced at the makeup of the Sekar Kedaton who was said to be the most beautiful Sekar Kedaton at this time. In Bang Risang's heart there is currently no more beautiful word for his two wives and he seeks both to be on the same throne in his heart even though one of them must force.

"Kangmas isn't ready yet and Kangmas can't prove anything for the morning." He said when the clock showed at one in the morning.

"Dinda understood, Kangmas could have hurt Dinda's body to prove it."

POV Bang Risang..

Ratih's words jolted me, where maybe I hurt a woman's body especially now that Ratih has become my wife.

"Dinda go to sleep. let Kangmas handle it..!!" I asked Ratih to fall asleep first."

-_-_-_-_-

Kanjeng Romo was very proud to see the mark on the white cloth that the mbok brought to him. Everyone was smiling looking at the thing I thought was naive and taboo.

"Say you don't want to be with my daughter. You spent Raden too." Kanjeng Romo said so pierced my heart. I could only smile and let everything as long as nothing alienated Ratih and Yesha could be saved. "Tonight you can be with your concubine. This is the pleasure of life having two sidewalks. If you have tasted the new 'empress' you can go down to your concubine unless you really want to be with your queen. That's your right Raden."

My heart really wants to scream. How can I be locked into such a messed up rule. It's modern times. Not the kingdom in the history books.
