Jaka Umbara; The Wind Warrior

New family

"Kanda, since when is Kanda this greedy?"

"Easy! Just eat your food!"

Barrel smiled. He knew his brother could never cover his embarrassment from anyone.

"Okay, Kanda."

Ki Pucung and Nyi Pucung also laughed at Jaka's response to Laras' speech.

"Uncle, Auntie, don't you want to eat either?" jaka asked as he sipped some drinking water nearby.

Ki Pucung jerked. "Well, we eat, we eat." Nyi Pucung nodded in agreement.

"Bye, kangmas.." Bows. Kinda shy.

"What else!?" Still hiding his embarrassment.

"I, that's. kangmas took the wrong container of water. That container I just gulped in."

Jaka was embarrassed too. Salah thought the container of water he grabbed was his.

Jaka can only be bowed. Embarrassed. "Sorry.."

"Ti, it's okay.." Come along feeling embarrassed.

Each of them finally fell silent to eat their own food

One afternoon..

Jaka is training his studies accompanied by Ki Pucung. Nyi Pucung was preparing lunch with Laras in the back room. Meanwhile, Nyi Dewi is seen sitting on the porch of the temple alone to see Jaka and Ki Pucung who are practicing.

In the back room..

“Aibi, whether Mbakyu does not have a single sibling,” asked Laras while preparing a drinking container.

“Nothing, as far as I am concerned. Your mother never once talked about it,” replied Nyi Pucung. “why did you suddenly ask that?” Back asking. Wonder at the question Baras.

“Nothing! Just wanted to ask. Wasn't Mbakyu's father the Goddess and Aunt and Uncle a college student?"

“True.”

“I'd love to listen to him. Auntie, please tell me how is your travel story?”

“Other times I will tell you about it, yes.”

“Ah, Aunt. I really want to hear it now.” Pouting and dissatisfied.

Both of them were silent for a moment.

“Auntie, I'm done with my job. Is there anything else I should do?”

“Before the rice cooks. Bring the drinking containers forward,” said Nyi Pucung. “you better accompany Mbakyumu! He must be alone at this time.”

“Good, Aunty.” Passed carrying a water container towards the front porch.

After arriving at the veranda, Laras saw Nyi Dewi was focused on seeing Jaka and Ki Pucung who were practicing together. In fact, Laras' call was not heard. Laras then took a seat some distance away beside Nyi Dewi.

“Mbakyu, what is Mbakyu looking at?”

“Looks like he was quite gallant too,” said Nyi Dewi unaware of the presence of Laras beside him.

Laras shook his head. The answer from Nyi Dewi felt far off from the question she asked.

“Is Mbakyu watching Kanda?” Trying to follow the thought of Nyi Dewi.

“Iya.” Responding spontaneously.

“How did Mbakyu think of Kanda?”

“She's pretty too. Dia..”

“Why with Kanda?” Curious.

Sighs. Bows. He closed his eyes long enough.

“Dia.” Suddenly I felt someone standing next to him.

“Diajeng, since when were you there?” Surprised at the existence of Laras.

"Dinda has been here since and calling Mbakyu, but Mbakyu keeps saying it's not clear to the point of not listening to my calls."

"A, what have I said?"

"Hmmm.." Think for a moment "like a gallant speech or something."

"I, that's ... Diajeng, can you forget what I said?"

"Why, Mbakyu?" Little wonder at the request of Nyi Dewi.

Nyi Dewi did not respond to the question that Laras asked. He just kept quiet without saying anything.

Jaka and Ki Pucung came to approach the two after the training session was enough.

"Nyimas, Laras, why are you here? Where's Auntie?" Seeking the person referred to by his views.

Before long the person being talked about appeared.

Nyi Pucung came carrying cooked rice and some side dishes in a medium-sized basket.

"Auntie, let me come help Auntie." Grabbing something to lighten his luggage.

"You're a good girl, Laras."

Laras blushed at Nyi Pucung's praise.

"Hehe.. Auntie doesn't have to be so. I'm so glad I could help Auntie."

"Nyi, how happy we are to have such a Princess. Look how sweet the sweetness is!" seloroh Ki Pucung's.

"You're right, Kakang. How happy we are" replied Nyi Pucung in response.

The barrel of confusion with the flow of speech Ki Pucung and Nyi Pucung.

"Auntie, can't I be Aunt's Princess?"

Amused laugh. "You are!"

The barrel still cannot grasp its true meaning.

"Can't you still? Or maybe I could be the Princess of Kanda and Mbakyu?"

"You misunderstood, Laras. That's not what Uncle and Aunt meant" Jaka said.

"Can't it still be?" Increasingly astonished.

"You were I thought of as my sister. How can I be your father."

"True, too" said Laras lirih. "What about Mbakyu?"

Nyi Dewi just smiled without retaliating.

"Back off.." Jaka covered his face with a palm. "stop adding to the misunderstanding."

"Raden, let Laras convey what is on his mind. Besides, Laras is still a child" said Nyi Pucung.

Not happy. "Auntie, I'm not a kid anymore, I've grown up. Right, right, Kanda?" Glancing towards Jaka. However, Jaka just smiled.

Still less happy. Laras threw the last choice at Nyi Dewi. "Mbakyu.. Is Dinda still a child?"

"No." Approaching and wiping the hair Barrel. "you've grown big."

Hugging Nyi Dewi. "Only Mbakyu is dear to Dinda." Nyi Dewi smiled crisply.

"Well.." Sighs. "Nyimas, don't spoil it too much,"

"Say Kanda is jealous." said Laras in a mocking tone.

Jaka let out a sigh of resignation. The others laughed crisply at Laras' words.

"Are we going to keep discussing this and let the food that Auntie made get cold?"

"What Nyi Dewi said is true. We better eat the food immediately before the food gets cold," Ki Pucung chimed in.

"Let's eat!" bring Nyi Pucung.

"Yes, yeah. Let's eat!" laras continued happy and immediately took part.

"Room, just slow down. No one will take your share," said Jaka saw the behavior of Laras.

Hngh! Laras frowning. Again Jaka was unable to do anything, only sighing. The others returned laughing crisply.

A few months after the existence of Laras found and re-assembled again with Jaka. Jaka planned to go to the royal palace to meet his grandfather, His Majesty King Baskara Nara Diningrat.

"You, can Dinda go too." Suddenly approached Jaka who was getting ready.

Hair wiping Barrel. "We'll go together someday. Now, let me go alone. I'll just stay there for a week. You don't have to worry."

"But, Kanda.." Feeling reluctant to go and leave him.

"Diajeng, it's okay." Suddenly present. "later we will often go there together."

"Is that true, Ma'am?" Expect fully. Nyi Dewi nodded and smiled.

"Look! Your mother will accompany you as long as I'm not around."

"True, I will accompany you, Diajeng," said Nyi Dewi to appease Laras.

"Well, Dinda will be with Mbakyu while Kanda is away."

Immediately ride the horse. "Then I leave first. Hyahat!" Pulling the control of the horse and speeding the horse up quickly.

"Mbakyu, will Kanda quickly return?"

"Just calm! Your brother will be back soon. Didn't he say he was only gone for a week? It must have passed quickly. No need to worry, yeah."

"Well, Mommy."
