The Princess Of Jungle
CHAPTRE 14

🍃 Happy reading 🍃

***

Key now sits on one of the large branches near the outback tribe's residence. The place that was his residence as well. He looked at the forest with a flat gaze, again his mind flashed what he said bue.

"Mulank is a spirit of 'abras' aka a spirit that has been lowered from 'top' there. They're divided into groups to keep the animals in the woods and trees."

That was bue's word at the time. Key exhaled a rough breath. What does it mean that he was born out of the forest? She's the forest princess? Key ruffled his hair in annoyance.

"Hey!"

Key flinched and searched for the origin of the sound. Below there Purok stood with both eyebrows linked.

"Purok! Do you know who or what a mulank is?" Key shouted so that the young man could hear him. The young man then fell silent and climbed up a tree in front of him and sat down next to Key.

"Mulank is a good spirit.we adore him."

Key silent. Ah they're the tribal hinterland? It still holds the beliefs of Animism and Dynamism.

"Are you still going?" ask Purok in a slow tone. His handsome face slightly formed a sad streak.

"Come ...."

"Bue said you should stay with us. For the spirits will overflow us with infinite food and drink."

"Before I come, don't you still feel that way? This forest has a lot of food and drink and is amazing" Key said as he stared into the two black eyes. His eyes are like black holes.

"Yes, but it's really more abundant when you're with us" Purok said with a smile.

"Hmm ..." Deheman was just a transition from Key's nervousness when he got a smile from Purok. He immediately looked the other way. Didn't want to stare too long into those two black, hole-like eyes. When looking at him Key felt sucked into another dimension. Suck and dragged in a strange feeling. But a very pleasant feeling.

Key gasped when he felt a touch on the top of his head. A burly hand rubbed his head gently.

"Why do you look so messy? Usually very clean and neat," said Purok with a smile and his hand justifies the blonde hair belonging to Key. Hair that is a different color than her hair. He did not deny the bue saying that Key was the princess of the forest.

It's very different. Beautiful unraveling wavy blonde hair and sharp brown eyes. Clean white skin with a sweet petite body. Sometimes those eyes seem sparkling when they get hunted.

Purok then slightly lowered his face and looked at Key inside.

"A-What's wrong?" Key stuttered due to his extremely fast heartbeat when Purok's face was very close in front of his eyes.

"You even changed color." both of Purok's black eyes looked at Key in astonishment.

"Color-changing?"

"Your cheeks are flushed." Purok's hands gently rubbed Key's cheeks and stared inside those two brown eyes.

Key swallowed the saliva with great difficulty. The color change that Purok meant was her cheek that was shaming in shame! Ah must be now that her cheeks are getting blustery.

"You are very beautiful ..." said Purok with soft eyes. Unknowingly his face was more advanced. Key is like that too. The closer they got to their faces, the faster Key's heart beat. It was like jumping out of place. Their sharp noses touched last

"Purok!"

Simultaneously Key and Purok realized then distanced themselves awkwardly. Purok then looked for the origin of the voice that called out to him. Seen from a distance Hanyi looked for him while continuing to scream. Hanyi was one of his friends and was Ekot's left hand. Ekot is their dreamer and brother of Purok. Yep. They're brothers.

"I'll be there." Key nodded briefly.

Key looked back at Purok with a flat look.

"If you refute him, Mulank will be angry and not protect you from the evil spirits here."

Key nodded and smiled.

"I'm worried about you." Purok's hands gently rubbed Key's hair back and climbed down and came to Hanyi. Leaving Key riveted with cheeks that had already 'changed color'.

Several young men were standing around Ekot and bue next to him. Usually this happens when there will be important things or big decisions from Ekot.

"The girl is different from us."

Bue's voice did not make Purok scatter from his daydream. He recalled that time with the blonde girl. He doesn't know what his name is yet. But somehow there was an unusual swish in his heart as he stared at that discolored face.

"Purok!"

"Yes?" Purok answered spontaneously.

"That girl do you all know what her name is?" ekot asked with a serious face and sparkling eyes. Making Purok confused and suspicious. This was the second time when he saw his brother's eyes sparkling.

Previously he saw when he was appointed as a leader or chieftain here. Even though he was young at the time, but their late father already fully believed in Ekot.

"The name is Ki."

"No, his name is Yi."

"I think his name is Ni."

A loud sound was instantly created. They mentioned one by one the names are clearly very far from the name Key. Their tongues are not used to calling Key (read: Kei)

"The name is difficult to say," said Purok who was immediately justified by all the young people there.

"All right, whatever the name is, that's not what I'm going to say." Ekot smiled meaningfully glancing at bue.

"Bue said the girl was the forest princess. She's beautiful and smart. Physiques are also different from ours."

All were silent on every sentence Ekot said. It is undeniable that the blonde girl is clean and beautiful. Some of the women in their tribe are also white but not clean. As for intelligence, Key is very intelligent for them.

How not? A young boy had a fever for two days. His mother had resigned but Key came and checked on the boy. He treated her with a leaf without saying anything. The next day the boy recovered and played as usual. Everyone has loved Keysa since then.

"So, in order that we may be bestowed with the blessing of the mulank and the main reason for her to remain here, Bue and I have decided to make her my wife."

Everyone gasped especially Purok.
