Legend of the Swordsman Rama Parvati

Physician Hansa

"Mother...." The exuberant shout shocked everyone who was in the courtyard of a cottage.

"Nini Loka Hita is home?" greet a woman.

"Yes, Bi. Where's mom?" Loka Hita got off her horse.

"Hisai Alisha is going to the lake, Ni. Nini will wait or follow?"

"I will follow" replied Loka Hita. "Uncle! I'm taking the horse, yeah!"

A man hurriedly approached, then grabbed onto Loka Hita's horse bridle.

"Nini's not riding? It's a long way off, Ni,"

"Near, Uncle. I don't want to ride. I'm leaving, Uncle!"

At the end of the sentence, Loka Hita was already bouncing upwards. Go with a high body weight. The size of the distance is indeed relative, especially Loka Hita is a swordsman.

"Enak, yes, so swordsman. Can go without fatigue," as always one of the workers at Nyai Alisha's house.

"Hussst! It's just the good you see. So the swordsman is hard. As far as I know, at the beginning, they have to train hard every day" said his friend.

"Yes! After all, they have a lot of responsibilities that are not light. Mending like us, simple. What is!" support other workers.

Meanwhile, the person they were talking about had just stopped. Loka Hita has arrived at the lake. However, her mother was nowhere to be seen around where she was standing now.

"Mother!" Loka Hita called out loud enough.

His call was answered by the neigh of the horse behind the bush. Loka Hita is heading there immediately. Under a shady tree, a masked woman sat leaning back. Loka Hita stared in wonder, mask?!

"Hita my daughter.." a soft voice welcomed.

"Mother!" Loka Hita immediately hugged the masked woman.

"Why do you wear a mask? If Mother does not call Hita, Hita will not recognize Mother." rejoice Loka Hita who is still in the arms of Nyai Alisha.

"There's a lot you're missing, Hita," Nyai Alisha gently stroked her daughter's hair. "The mother does not want to be known by the besan family, Hita. Especially Uncle Caraka and Uncle Mahanta."

"But, Mother, how do they accept Mother's mask?"

"Mothers have reasons they can accept, Hita. Look," Nyai Alisha let go of her arms. Then, take off the mask.

Loka Hita rubbed the scar on her Mother's face, "The mother purposely did this?"

Nyai Alisha nodded, "What's wrong, Hita. It's a normal wound. Just ruined a little bit of Mom's face."

Loka Hita hugged Nyai Alisha again, "But Mother remains beautiful. They don't recognize your mother?"

"No, Hita. Uncle Mahanta had seen Mother's face, but didn't recognize it."

"Uncle Caraka?"

"Uncle Caraka didn't see Mother's face. Hita, you haven't visited your brother, Wira?"

Loka Hita shook her head. He did not want to visit his feet. More precisely, it has not yet wanted to meet Uncle Caraka. The person who has always been considered Loka Hita as one of the masterminds of the death of Prabu Garuda Rama.

"Yesterday Wira sent Mother a letter. He has been inducted into Prabu in Nala Pura. Uncle Caraka chose to resign and became an advisor. Hita, it's not good to hate an innocent person" Nyai Alisha smiled gently. He knows his daughter's feelings.

"Uncle Caraka could not have intended to kill your father, Hita. He has a lot of respect for your father. It's just that, at that time the circumstances forced him to be absent when the palace was attacked. You yourself know, Uncle Caraka immediately look for your father after successfully mastering the palace. He's always trying to find us, isn't he?!"

"Then, why did he become a prabu?"

"Because Nala Pura needs a Prabu, my daughter. Mother sure, Dhiajeng Arum must have asked for it. Uncle Caraka must be thinking about the future of our kingdom, my daughter."

Loka Hita is silent. All of his mother's explanations made sense. But, Loka Hita's heart already believes all the bad allegations. It will take longer to make him eliminate bad guesses - in addition to stronger evidence.

"Mother, why did we have to leave Nala Pura? Why cover up your self? But when big, Mother allowed Kakang Wira to follow the competition?"

Nyai Alisha laughs. His daughter does not like pleasantries, but sometimes becomes very chatty.

"Didn't Mother ever say, Mother does not want to return to Nala Pura without your father, Kakang Satya..." Nyai Alisha let out a heavy sigh, "it is painful to live life in the palace without Kakang Satya, my daughter."

Loka Hita looked down, Nyai Alisha even now called Kakang Satya.

"Mother doesn't want to come back. Let them believe that Kakang Satya's family is gone. Mother allows the Hero to follow the contest. That was the message of Kakang Satya, your father. One day, you'll understand more of Mother's reasons, Hita."

Loka Hita grunted softly. Ah, it's always like this. His mother doesn't want to explain everything. He even told her to find out for herself.

Nyai Alisha laughed seeing her daughter's sour face. He got up, followed by Loka Hita. Time to go back home.

"When you visit your brother, Hita. It's been over two months that you've been gone. Your brother must miss you, Hita." Nyai Alisha leads her horse.

"But, Hita still has to accompany someone in the padepokan, Mother."

"Wasa Girl? He used to go home, look for you."

Loka Hita shook her head, "It's not just Kakang Wasa, Mother. But also Physician Hansa."

Nyai Alisha looked at her daughter who was walking beside her. Loka Hita - with pleasure, told all.

On the way home, Loka Hita finally intends to visit Arya Wira. Also the palace where he grew up and spent his childhood.

After a few days, Loka Hita returned to the store to meet the Hansa Physician. When he arrived, Physician Hansa was training with Empu Dipta himself. The development of the young man was very fascinating. So quickly master the basics of martial arts. Also not only able to increase the power within, but also can control the power within. Although, his sword and weapon games were not so developed rapidly.

Empu Dipta noticed Loka Hita watching the training from afar. With a smile and body language, Empu lets Loka Hita test the abilities of Physician Hansa.

Loka Hita immediately entered the arena, directly attacking Physician Hansa with empty-handed style. Both are involved in battle. Although Physician Hansa was overwhelmed, he was able to compensate for the style and movement of Loka Hita.

"Great, Physician. Now, I need you to pull out your sword!"

Not yet had Physician Hansa say anything, Loka Hita had already pulled out her sword. Attacking with basic beginner moves. Physician Hansa was able to compensate, although quite determined. He only survived without being able to retaliate even though Loka Hita deliberately made a lot of gaps.

"Your sword moves are still very weak, Physician," Loka Hita said between the attacks.

"Sorry, Hita. I'm not good at swords."

Loka Hita chose to stop the attack. Physician Hansa rubs sweat on forehead. Really exhausted. Empu Dipta is approaching.

"What's up, Hita? Why are you visiting this store again?"

Loka Hita turned to her teacher, "I want to say goodbye, Teacher. I want to visit Kakang Wira."

Empu Dipta nodded, "Yes already, it looks like you want to say goodbye to Hansa. I'm going back to the main cabin." Empu Dipta smiled and left.

Physician Hansa turned to Loka Hita, "Where are you going, Hita?"

"Ke Nala Pura's. My brother was there. It's been over two months I haven't seen him."

"You're going alone?"

Loka Hita nodded. "Even though, I want to be with you, Physician.." The heart says another.

"Are we going to see each other again?"

"Hopefully, Physician. The doctor must study here first. Later, the Physician can meet me at Nala Pura."

"Good, Hita. But, how can I find you?"

"If the Power wills, He will give way, Physician. All right, I gotta go now." Loka Hita turned around. He had to meet Pitaloka and Giri Wasa before going to Nala Pura.

"Hita! Wait!" Physician Hansa exclaimed. Then, pause for a moment.

"Come on, you have to say it!" the heart of Physician Hansa strengthened itself.

Loka Hita turned her head, waiting for the continuation of the words of Physician Hansa.

"Ehm..." Physician Hansa scratched his head, "You're so pretty."

Physician Hansa cursed in heart. Why even say that ridiculous thing.

Loka Hita looked down. Hiding a pink tinge on her bright cheeks.

"Thank you, Doctor..."

"Don't call the healer, Hita," said Physician Hansa

Loka Hita raised her eyebrows. Then then?!

"I can't call you Miss, so don't call me a Physician" explains Physician Hansa.

"Then, may I call you Kakang?" Loka Hita looked down again.

Physician Hansa smiled brightly, "Yes, Hita. You can call me Kakang."

"Thank you, Brother Hansa. Kakang Hansa was also very gallant," saying those words, Loka Hita looked down.

"And you're the prettiest woman I've ever met." Out of nowhere, Physician Hansa got the courage to say those words.

"Thank you, Kakang. Excuse me," Loka Hita immediately ran away from Physician Hansa. Her cheeks are getting red. His smile could no longer be held back.

Not much different from Loka Hita, Physician Hansa also smiled. Relieved and happy.

"Wealah.." That distinctive voice made Physician Hansa turn his head. "If you like, mbok yo cepetan proposed to be a lover. The hunt is too late."

"Janu! Already, let's go to the room!"

"But, Master does like Nini Loka Hita, right? It seems, Nini Loka Hita also likes..." Janu did not pester, even more engrossed in words.

Physician Hansa immediately left Janu. Though his heart justifies the words of his faithful servant. He cannot lie to his own heart.

But, who is he?! Loka Hita is a very strong matchmaker. He is only a healer. Can Loka Hita accept it? Wouldn't he?
