Curse Forever

The Hollandsch - Inlandsche School

🌺 hem.. 🌺

* * *

A house around a wall twice as tall as an adult.

Two men of stature and black skin, often stung by the heat of the sun, stood alert in front of a gate whose doors were tightly closed.

Their clothes are typical of Indigenous men. On the upper part of the body hang a thin cloth vest without sleeves . While the bottom is wrapped around a pull that in the middle is pulled up to form a pants.

The house is the most magnificent and largest house owned by Indigenous nobles in downtown Batavia.

The grounds are wide, field and clean. Because the servants work very painstakingly in taking care of him.

When entering the house, the soles of the feet will smell the floor made of fine stones that are formed and arranged neatly until safe and comfortable to tread.

While the doors and windows are made of ebony wood carved by the hands of reliable artists, creating a variety of beautiful images.

Large, sturdy wood is visible at every corner that serves as the main support of buildings with tight security.

'' Hey, you hurry ! " the command of the young man with his index finger led to the lackey who was kneeling in front, placing a slipper on his leg.

The lackey hastened the work of his hands.

' Buk' a kick landed on the back of the middle-aged man who was still bowing. His body fell on the floor.

But he quickly got up and returned to his original position.

" You blocked my path "The master looked at him cynically.

Panji, the 19-year-old young man stepped towards the exit of his stately home.

But his steps immediately stopped when he had just crossed the door.

Panji flinched to find a girl with a white kebaya and her batik array standing on the steps of the house.

The girl lowered her head. Dare not to look at him for long.

' Huh ' Panji snorted annoyedly. Because it looks like what he just did was seen by the girl .

Panji continued his steps and followed by the waist-long haired girl who was left unraveled.

A horse-drawn carriage had been waiting before the gate, preparing to deliver it to school.

The banner went up and entered first, and followed the girl .

They sit facing each other.

Panji loudly issued an order and immediately the train began to be driven by the road .

All the way quiet filled.

While the girl simply stared out the window, Panji did not even look away from the girl.

Mayang.

He was his nanny's son.

Since childhood, Panji who is the only child of the noble has a nature and a rough character towards anyone. That's both the way he talks and the way he behaves.

Even to his parents.

Therefore, none of the noble children wanted to be his friends.

Panji often feels lonely because both parents are busy with their respective affairs.

The father, who was a Duke, was busy taking care of the territory and the Natives who lived in Batavia. While the mother has a clothing store that sells and provides fabrics, clothes to the completeness of the nobles.

Because often left by both parents, Panji's personality becomes so arrogant and arrogant .

Until one day his nanny named Mbok Arni raised a daughter.

Mbok Arni and her husband Sudarman have been married for ten years and have never had children.

At that time Panji was only 5 years old and Mayang who was then brought to live with his adoptive parents, was 3 years old.

Initially, Panji did not consider it important the presence of Mayang which would later be made one of his house servants.

But destiny says something else.

Whether it starts from when, but Panji gets close and befriends Mayang the girl who is always cheerful .

Panji likes Mayang and then treats Mayang not like the lackeys of his house.

Mayang was given special privileges.

Where he is not allowed to work other than as his playmate.

Mayang even in school after Panji begged his father.

At that time Panji was desperate not to eat and locked himself in the room if his wishes were not fulfilled.

Although Mayang refused, but he insisted that Mayang can go to school in the same place as him.

He always wanted to be with Mayang. And don't want to miss a day without that mature brown girl.

Though it should be, the relationship that was established between them was as a master and a servant.

But with his selfish attitude, Panji did not understand the warning and increasingly dissolved in his closeness to Mayang.

And it continues until they grow up .Conscious banner. He already likes . But he did not expect that feeling to be his weak point.

Hollandsch-Inlandsche School or abbreviated as HIS.

Bumi Putra Dutch school is intended for noble children and prominent figures from the Indigenous people only.

Those who attend school in this place are generally the children of nobles whose parents are social status and have a high position .

Panji Arthaprawirya is one of them. He was the son of Duke Arthaprawirya .The head of the region which is the highest noble in Batavia.

According to genealogy, the Duke's family was the only surviving descendant of the previous king.

No wonder if this family is abundant in material handed down by his ancestors.

Panji got off the train and immediately took a step into the school area built by the companies.

Later on by Mayang.

The girl who a few days ago turned 17 was following the steps of her young employer.

Because they know that Mayang is Panji's favorite girl who is nicknamed the captor.

Panji is very loved and much appreciated by the girls in his school.

That's because Panji was born with a beautiful face. He was endowed with the look of his handsome father with a firm face line and gave the impression of a true manly man.

Likewise with the body shape that is above the standards of the indigenous men.

His father, the Duke is classified as high with a sturdy body shape filled and dense. And that too he bequeathed to his only child .

'' Go to your class.

Remember not to be near others.

Especially with the men.

I do not like and do not want the incident the other day happened again Panji said to Mayang when they had just landed a foot in the hallway of a building dominated by white.

Mayang nodded while smiling briefly.

He is grateful to have the best employer and so considerate.

Like a few days ago when he was being bullied by some noble young man who was a new disciple. Mayang was almost harassed.

Luckily Panji and his two bodyguards came on time and taught them a lesson.

Not only limited to warning in the form of a blow, Panji also asked his father to reprimand and even sanction their families.

Inflamed pennant. He's upset. Because if it's a little late, Mayang may have become their boast.

Mayang broke that memory. Then take the opposite path to Panji.

Panji had actually completed his education two years ago.

But because someday he will replace his father, then he must always be ready and equip himself with more education . Because to face the colonial era like today, it is not enough to just rely on physical and material strength that he already has. The banner needs science because it does not want to be fooled.

With the power of the father, Panji can actually call the teaching staff home. But he decided to continue his studies at school while waiting for Mayang to finish his school which is only a year away.

Mayang is the only commoner who is very - very lucky to be able to take school.

All that he gained because his master was the Duke of Arthaprawirya.

Mayang happy. Although deep in his heart, he felt burdened.

He realized that someday there would be a price he had to pay for all the good things he had received so far.

I don't know, Mayang is reluctant to think and guess about what will happen in the future.

Especially on the relationship and the banner.

If he used to feel ordinary, as they get older, Mayang began to feel uncomfortable near Panji.

The banner is often or even always pay attention to it blatantly.

But for some occasions, he found another Panji than usual.

The man who was usually cold with his flat expression, now no longer looked at him in the same way.

The pennant looked at him from top to bottom, so asked him to turn around as if he was stripping him. If Panji starts to behave like that, Mayang must be overcome with fear .

Mayang confused. It must be how he should face Panji's current attitude.

He who can not avoid and also has no choice, can only try to keep behaving as usual.

The lesson hours will begin soon. Just a moment before, there was the roar of the machine so noisy that it made the entire school immediately stare towards the origin of the sound.

An old ash-colored car stopped in the schoolyard.

Transportation equipment is still very rare and classified as luxury goods in that era immediately became the center of attention.

Especially when the driver goes down and opens the back door of the car.

A white girl with floral lace mixed with golden brown strings came out from inside.

His body shape is crazy. The chest and buttocks are so prominent.As if it will stick out from behind his clothes.

The appearance of Indigenous women . But the skin is pale white, unlike Indigenous women who generally have yellow or brownish skin.

Her hair was slightly blond, straight, shoulder-length and in flops on both sides.

His eyes were light brown and slightly greenish.

His nose is sharp with both holes. Her lips are thin pink.

Anyone can guess, if from the look alone he is certainly not a native Indigenous woman.

The beautiful but arrogant girl seemed to highlight sharply in every eye that was watching her.

At the same time, an andong had also just entered the courtyard and stopped not far from the parked car.

A man in his twenties got off the public transport.

'' Thank you, sir, said the man while paying some guilders to the Andong tower in return for delivering him to his destination.

The clothes are simple, yet neat and clean.

He then walked along with the girl who had also just taken a step towards the front of the building.

Realizing that, his second step compactly stopped.

For a moment they looked at each other.

If the man nods and smiles and greets, it is different from the girl who looks cynically and continues the step first.

The man with the typical Native good looks shook his head while widening his smile, to show his neatly arranged rows of teeth.
