Lunch time at the Asian palace...
Zu was still busy with his work. He didn't even have time for lunch today. Soon, Shu comes to her brother.
"Shu?" Zu turned his head towards his sister who was standing in front of the door of his room.
"You're not having lunch, brother?" shu asked as he held the doorknob from outside.
"I'm still busy. Have you eaten yourself?" ask Zu while continuing his work.
"I'll have lunch with my lions later. Tumben you're not with him?" ask Shu later.
"Yes, I told you I wanted to speed up this work. So I let him enjoy his day, because I'm still very busy" Zu explained.
"Em, it's worth it that he was in such a hurry."
"Hurrying?" ask Zu quickly.
"Yes. He said he had business so he couldn't talk to me for a minute." Shu.
"Don't be weird, Shu. I will not hesitate to punish you. She's my future wife" Zu said.
"Just calm down, brother. I know myself enough." Shu smiled. "Yes, already. I went to the back of the palace. Dad's resting right now, and I've also asked the troops to take care of him." Shu.
"Yes. Alright." Zu.
Zu continued his work, he did not heed the news from Shu. Because he thought Ara would be active in his residence. The prince also wanted to quickly complete the handover of this office. He wants to marry his girl soon.
While in Space...
Cloud was having lunch with his father on the terrace of the palace's third-floor balcony. While eating lunch, the two talked about Rain who was carrying out the mission.
"Have you heard from Rain?" ask Sky to his son.
"Already, Dad. Last night we just got word from him" Cloud replied immediately.
"Then?"
"Rain was waiting for Ara on the peach hill" Cloud continued.
"Peach hill?"
Cloud nodded.
"Is there any more news?" sky's land is back.
"Yet, Dad. Last night he advised against replying to his mail because he was worried that there were spies watching the delivery bird."
"Hm, so." Sky sipped his drinking water.
"I wonder, is the Asian security system like that?" Cloud asked his father.
"Yes, maybe. I haven't been there in a long time. The last five years have been to the nearest country. Perhaps now the area is increasingly tightened. Especially since the king fell ill."
"Fall sick?"
"Yes, the king of Asia fell ill. And the control of the government is held by the crown prince."
Cloud was silent.
"When are you going to take over your father's job?" Sky insinuated his son.
"I don't think it's appropriate to not have married Ara, Dad." Silly-faced cloud.
"Why is that?" ask Sky again while continuing to eat his lunch.
"Yes, competing with my own sister just can't. Especially competing with other countries." Cloud is honest.
"Maha." Sky laughed at once. "Women play a very important role. Your mother was also difficult to conquer. And in the end, he's willing to accept me."
"What's the secret, Dad?" ask Cloud seriously.
"Then?" ask Cloud again.
"Patience."
"Nothing else?"
"No, Son. Facing the woman must be patient. He'll be hurting himself later." Sky.
Cloud smiled. Finally after a prolonged matter struck his heart and mind, the crown prince was able to smile again. He remembered his girl.
Ara, I will be patiently waiting for you, even if it torments me so much. You're my queen, now and forever.
Cloud smiled as he reminisced about his girl. His heart was so longed that it almost overflowed to the surface. Cloud needs his girl.
Cloud, Rain, and others. The youngest son of the kingdom of Angkasa has entered the forest area in western Asia. Soon he will arrive at the dock.
Ara, we'll be here soon. I'll take you back to Space.
This return journey was not felt by Rain. The girl was with him. His heartbeat along with the rhythm of the girl's heartbeat. Both intend to stop for a while at the dock before continuing the journey back to the Space.
Two hours later...
I'm with Rain already near the dock. Stop for a while at the home of a grandfather who he said was his grandson Rain's comrade-in-arms while still a soldier. My arrival was welcomed by his grandfather and wife.
"Happy greetings, Mother." I greeted the grandfather.
He lives alone with his wife. Their children have families and live in different places. Grandfather's grandson, who is a friend of Rain's, is in charge of maintaining peace in the border conflict areas of the country.
So simple ....
I see this grandfather's house is so simple. Only a bamboo hut is left without any paint. Grandpa and Grandma looked very happy. I feel ashamed to see it myself.
"So this is the angel you mean, my granddaughter?" Grandpa asked Rain.
"Yes, Cake. He's my bidad." Rain smiled.
"Let's drink the tea." Grandma came to bring us tea.
Rain brought a lot of troops to pick me up. There might be about forty troops. Ten served on the ship and thirty others picked me up.
"Thank you, Grandma."
We chatted for a while before heading back to Space. Grandma and Grandpa told us a lot about her life. And what is the reason for those who until now are still loyal together. Rain hugged me and kissed me.
He doesn't know the place.
Grandma and grandpa laughed at Rain's shameless act. They prayed for us to get married and have many children.
"Follow the southwest line and just go straight. It's a safe path for you to return to Space." Grandpa told us.
"Are there no navies on patrol, Cake?" ask Rain carefully.
"No. Nothing if you follow this path. If there is, you just take off the flag. So that the soldiers on patrol think your ship is a fishing boat." Grandpa said that.
"Alright, Cake. Thanks for the help, I owe Grandpa a favor." Rain shakes hands with the grandfather.
"Of course, don't think about it. While you can help others, why not? After all, a grandfather's age what else to look for besides planting kindness for the day." Grandfather gave us life advice.
My heart was full of hearing it. I'm ashamed of myself. Grandfather gave us his advice. While grandma gives confidence so that my heart is steady to choose a partner. And grandma agrees with Rain, because she knows how Rain has been a soldier.
We finally said goodbye and continued our journey back to Space. One by one the troops began to enter the ship and followed by Rain's horse. I also did not forget to thank the couple. And also apologized for having been a lot of trouble.
Thank you, Cake, Grandma ....
We waved our hands before finally docking towards this northwest passageway. Afterwards, Rain invited me to take a short break.
On this sea somehow my heart felt so happy with him. Rain again showed his sacrifice for me. I became very moved.
Ara felt very happy after meeting Rain again. The pain that struck his heart in an instant disappeared just like that. The warmth began to be felt from a high commander of Angkasa. His feelings are still the same as before, as well as the prince. Both of them seemed very happy to wade through this vast ocean.
