Panji steps stop at the side yard of the house, where there is a saung - a place that is commonly used by his family to gather and relax .

His parents sat down, waiting for his arrival.

'' Come here, boy. You must be hungry, right ?

Come, here sit.We have lunch together said the mother named Pramunti Widuri.

The green woman who always looks graceful and charming at her age who has stepped on the head of four.

Pramunanti is very self-care .

Panji took a deep breath and threw it violently while connecting the steps that had stopped.

Panji then sat facing his parents.

Not long after, the servants came to bring and serve food in front of them.

'' Father has prepared the house that you will occupy after marriage later said his father, the Duke of Arthaprawirya.

The pennant stopped eating. He looked at the charismatic man who was almost entirely similar to him .

'' Romo - '' was just about to say, the father immediately stopped chewing and immediately looked at him .

Look at his eyes the condition of a pressure.

Panji stared back.

He seemed to assert that if the strong decision of the father will not be able to shake the founder .

'' Kang mas '' Pramunti tried to mediate. She held the husband's arm and rubbed it gently. Hope the husband does not get angry and calm.

But the husband and his son did not bully him and began to throw arguments at each other.

The atmosphere began to feel tension.

All because of the matchmaking that was agreed upon a week ago.

Between the only son of the Duke and the eldest daughter of Colonel Jhon Van Piereezoon.

In fact, long before the establishment of the marriage of Panji and Mina, the Duke had repeatedly planned to match Panji with some of the noble daughters of his acquaintances.

Since he was 17 years old, Panji has been told if he will be married soon.

But Panji refused on the grounds that he still wanted to continue his education.

At that time, the Duke gave freedom to his son by giving a year for Panji to do what he wanted to do.

Until the following year, a relative who was a fellow noble visited to offer matchmaking.

But had not had the matchmaking in agreement, the daughter of the noble suddenly disappeared and until now there was no news .

According to rumors spread among the Indigenous nobility, the noble girl refused to be in a match and ran away with the man she loved. What was later known was only one of the commoners.

Regardless of whether or not it was true, the Duke did not care and preferred to find girls from other noble families who were worthy and worthy to be juxtaposed with his only child.

Fate leads him to meet Colonel Jhon Van Peirezoon. At that time, the Indigenous nobles and the Company were holding a meeting to discuss and discuss cooperation in regulating the Batavia region.

In the meeting, the Duke and Company had a long chat and somehow ended up with an agreement to match their son.

And Panji again resolutely refused .

However, the Duke of Kali could no longer tolerate.

He who knows if the cause is his nanny child, Mayang - then gave the order to mbok Arni and husband left his house with their adopted children.

Knowing the father's plan, Panji suddenly softened. He lowered his ego and pleaded with it greatly.

He's helpless. Mayang is his weakness. He can't live far without Mayang.

With a heavy heart he accepted his father's decision. He will marry the soul mate that has been arranged for him. But on condition.

Mayang should be wherever he lives.

Because one day Mayang will be his concubine.

- -

'' Is this still about Mayang ? '' asked the Duke with a dead red face.

He did not think if the child was still insistent on fighting for love in his nanny.

'' Has Romo forgotten ? At that time Romo had promised, if I agreed then Romo would grant my terms ''

'' Righteous. But it can't be straight like that, Panji.

You will marry and live the household with your wife and have children first .

Only after that can you add your woman ''

'' No '' No ! I can't wait that long, Romo. I can't stand it if I have to stay away from Mayang for a long time.

I don't want a romo. I can't ''

'' PENNANT !!! ''

'' Kang mas's... '' Pramunti held back by holding firmly the arm of the husband who was almost up from his seat.

" You two don't be like this. We talk about this slowly in order to be able to find a good decision for everyone ''

The compact father and son both cast gazes in opposite directions.

Pramunti breathed a heavy sigh . After being felt quite calm susana she also issued what was on her mind since then.With hope, this can be a solution and end the debate of her son and husband.

" Pennant... You know if we nobles can't marry someone who's not from among us, right ?

Especially girls like Mayang who are not clear of their origin. We all know, if Mayang is not the biological child mbok Arni. He's a foster child ''

Panji. The fact that his love is hindered by social status is something that he cannot underestimate.

This concerns the good name of his family, the future and also the good name of other Indigenous nobles.

What would happen if the only descendant of the previous king married a lackey ?

Of course he and his descendants will be the subject of gossip and do not rule out the possibility of receiving prolonged slurs.

He does not want his grandchildren to bear insults because of his ego.

But he also could not rule out his feelings that had grown too deep on Mayang.

A simple girl who has almost no privileges.

Both appearance and body shape, Mayang classified as standard . No less and no more. Everything that was on him was scratched with the right portion.

" Mom, you know how you feel.

I will not blame or tell you to bury your love in Mayang.

Because we know it won't be that easy you want to let go let alone forget it.

So, believe. We neither want nor want to separate you.

It's just, you have to remember your nature and responsibility towards this family.

Because you're our only child.

Understand, son.

You can't be rash in making a decision. And you can't be greedy either.

Get married, have children and reassure your wife first.

If everything is in your control, then you can bring Mayang into your life .

You just have to be patient for two or three years.

After that, then you can take it as a concubine " said Pramunti staring in the child he loved so much.

He understands if the situation of the child is difficult and pinched.

One side of nature leads Panji to behave as appropriate and as a noble.

But on the other hand, he was just like any other human being. Who cannot decide who to fall in love with.

'' I'm resigning, Momo, mom.

I want to meet Mayang and talk to him Panji moved and passed from his parents.

The banner hunts down a step towards the very back of the house . Where there are two separate buildings from the main building .

The smaller building is the center of cooking activities. While the building that was twice the size of the previous building was the residence of the servants .

Along the foot and pass through one by one the space in his residence, Panji several times stopped to ask the waiter who happened to cross paths with him.

'' Where is Mayang ? ''

Everything he asked answered similarly.

'' Mayang was called his mother . Maybe now it's in the back building, den Mas ''

It is no secret that Panji, the son of the Duke, is infatuated with his own personal lackey. Everyone who works at home knows, even that has been spread to the outside.

That is also one of the reasons the Duke so urged Panji to get married.

He does not want to be cheated and worried if the banner is reckless to kebablasan.

Do not let the first offspring be born not from the legal marriage of fellow noble.

Because of seeing the flag and his increasingly uncontrollable attitude, the Duke was increasingly keen to marry his son.

- -

The banner reached the building where the servants of his house lived.

Both of his legs stopped parallel right in front of the restriction bulkhead of the room.

Two figures that he memorized who was in the middle, sitting with his back to his seat.

Mayang and his mother, Mbok Arni.

They don't know if Panji's behind them.

'' Have you heard that Raden Panji will be married soon ? '' asked Mbok Arni, a woman who is now more than half a century old.

'' Nggih, ma'am answered Mayang quietly and nodded his bowed head.

Mayang knows where this conversation is going.

Because not once twice his mother asked him to talk and discuss the same thing.

'' I think it's time for you, mom and dad to leave this place.

Mom and dad are old. Our energy is no longer useful . So it is appropriate that we know ourselves.

I've spoken to Kanjeng Adipati.

He said he would take responsibility and prepare all our needs.

So, we just need to leave without thinking about anything else.

What do you think, ndok ? You don't mind, do you ? '' mbok Arni holds the right shoulder next to her .

Mayang held his head up and nodded.

Signs he approves of this.

'' We have to go before things get harder.

So, you get ready. Because when the time comes, then we'll get the hell out of here.

And if later we're in a new place of residence, you better get married.

Mom and dad will find a good husband for you ''

Mayang.

The word married, husband, is something that never seemed to come to his mind at all.

Although most women at his age have thought or even been married and have a husband, but Mayang is not the case.

He himself was astonished. He seems uninterested in domestic life .

Maybe because he did not know and feel what love is. A taste that is said to change and control everything.

'' Ma'am ''

'' yes, ndok ''

'' For the matter of marriage .. Can it be done later ? ''

'' Why ? Does anything make you not want to get married ? Your age is enough to have a husband, Mayang ''

'' ... ''

'' is it because of Raden Mas Panji ? ''

Mayang.

'' I-I want to find my own soul mate.

I promise I won't demand anything and will do whatever you say.

So, can you give me the freedom to make my own choices ? ''

'' mayang, nduk. i-buk '' mbok Arni stopped the speech that had been at the end of her tongue when she saw a figure that suddenly appeared .

' deg 'uncontact mother and child surprised.

From the look on his face, they guessed that the young master had heard their conversation just now.

'' Mayang '' his voice sounded flat but full of emphasis.

Mayang stood up because he knew if the meaning of his name was called was an order.

Without a word, Panji turned around and immediately took a step out.

Mayang said goodbye to her mother . Then it quickly caught up with Panji who had just disappeared from behind the wall.
