129. Invitation

A man of high stature contains, mature brown skin, firm cheekbones, with a face overgrown with thick bewok from the cheek area to the bottom of the chin. Coupled with thick eyebrows, pitch-black round eyeballs, filled lips exude a charming firmness. He walked in the middle of the Radenayu Group building accompanied by 4 people behind him holding a sharp weapon in the form of a long sword. His strange appearance managed to become the center of attention of many people who were there, especially the RA Group employees who were taking lunch breaks.

The man was wearing unusual clothes, he only used batik cloth patterned brown and yellow mas limited to the eyes of the feet, on his waist there is also an ancient silver belt peranakan, peacock sculpture. The upper part of his body was left open, showing his sturdy field chest only decorated with a necklace shaped limited to the chest, the left and right arms are stocky, and the right arm is, decorated with jewelry such as bracelets and also with his wrists.

Then on the head there are accessories such as fabric that binds but there are jewelry such as a small brooch attached to the middle of his forehead. Likewise with the appearance of the four men behind him, only the difference is from the jewelry and the length of the fabric used. They are exactly like the colossal film players who play the story of the kingdom of the Baheula era.

The employees kept whispering to see the strange-looking men. Many think if they are doing a costume parade, some think they are not sane, and many also make fun of their appearance. But the men did not care, they seemed blind and deaf to the sight and scorn of the people around them at this time.

" Sorry gentlemen, where do you want to go and meet with whom ?". Ask a beautiful, long-hooded woman who is none other than RA Group receptionist Staff.

" I'd like to meet Raden Ayu ". In short.

" I'm sorry, what's the need?, or did you make an appointment earlier ?". The man stared at the receptionist sharply, he did not like this woman's question. It made the woman in front of him afraid.

" I am a messenger from the kingdom of Samudra Brahmacari, carrying a message from the King and this must be Raden Ayu himself who received it ". The answer is cruel, full of emphasis with a typical Javanese tone.

" sir.tu..wait a minute". He answered nervously, then called someone.

****

Dikantin RA Group, no less excited with the atmosphere in the Lobby. How not, the employees are presented with a view of the step, namely the romanticization of their leader. Gavino and Danira prevent lunch bagged mingle with other employees. At first Gavino refused Danira's request, but Gavino's name was not his name if it did not melt with a soft voice and teased his wife. And here they are now, sitting opposite each other, with a simple lunch meal.

Not without reason Danira came to the canteen and ate there. He just wants to make sure directly all his employees get good and enough food.

Gavino still put on an upset face, sat up straight, hands folded in front of the chest, sulking. Instead of looking fierce, Gavino's face even looks more handsome and adorable. Make the hearts of the women who were there increasingly thrashing, want to sit on Gavino's lap, then stroke his cheeks and then lean his head on the chest of Gavino's field.

" Want to eat this one ?". Danira asked pointing at the food on Gavino's plate, Gavino shook his head as he pouted advancing his lips.

" Which do you want?, do I want to order food from outside ?". Gavino still shook his head, just like a grander baby sulking. Danira sighed softly, then began to spoon the rice and side dishes in her special spoon.

" Open his mouth !!". Danira said, Gavino glanced at Danira at a glance and then threw away his face again.

" Dude...!!!". Gavino looked at Danira and opened his mouth, eating the food that his wife fed him.

" I don't like these little fish ". Gavino said while chewing.

" This anchovy is good for bone health, so it is not easily porous" said Danira origin, back to feed Gavino whose face is still bent, but still open his mouth.

" But I don't like eating here, baby, look.everybody is looking at us. I think I want to pry their eyeballs one by one, but continue to accept bribes for the sake of bribes that Danira gives.

" Iihhh..should not be cruel so mas, should they see. My husband is very handsome ". Tempting Danira again to feed Gavino, when Gavino's face turned red, she gave a smile with a mouth full of food. For some reason every time Danira praised him Gavino's heart was always flowery, happy. Make Sean and Sarah throw their eyes off the road.

Gavino swiped his leg, kebetis Danira under the table. Makes Danira kick her husband's leg slowly, because it feels amused. Gavino just gave Danira a horse's grin, like he didn't do anything.

All those romantic moments were witnessed by many pairs of envious eyes, some of them were secretly recording those adorable moments. Sarah and Sean who were also sitting beside them, could only resignedly hold amused in their hearts, seeing the affection of their bosses.

Sean saw the food on Sarah's plate, no side dishes. Just a little rice and a lot of vegetables.

" Are you dieting ?". Sean opened the chat for the first time. Sarah only glanced at a glance, not intending to answer.

" You want this,?..since I've seen you only eat vegetables ".Sean was still trying to get Sarah to talk, offering her squid, he saw her master acting ridiculous.

" No.thank you ". Briefly Sarah, refocus on that.

Damn it. This woman is colder iceberg. Inner Sean. But Sean still occasionally glanced at Sarah who sat opposite him.

Without Sean and Sarah realizing, from now on Gavino and Danira noticed Sean's attitude that often steals the eyes on Sarah, who continues to suckle ducks, or indeed pretends not to know.

" Sarah's a vegetarian, that's why she only eats vegetables". Obviously Danira, who feels sorry for Sarah not answering Sean's question.

Oohhh.fast. Sean just ber oh in heart. While mangosteen. While Sarah still enjoying the food, do not care about the people who are talking about it.

When they are busy enjoying lunch dishes, interspersed with small talk. From the direction behind, there were sounds of rapid steps approaching their table. Gavino sees Sam, Danira's bodyguard walking towards Danira followed by the freaks behind him.

Who they are, why the costumes are so strange. Is there a first Helloween event?. Inner Gavino, looking at the five people behind Sam. And they stopped just not far from where Danira was sitting.

" I'm sorry, lady.someone wants to see you ". Said Sam, looking down.

" Who ?". Danira turned her head, without looking at Sam.

" Evoy from the kingdom of Samudra Brahmacari". Danira was silent, clutching her spoon and fork tight. Sam, shifting his body let the men advance closer towards Danira.

Is it time....Danira muttered in his heart.

" Greetings, Raden Ayu ". He spoke out, followed by the other four men. Danira immediately stood up, and shifted his position, not wanting to receive treatment that he thought was too excessive. Seeing Danira standing up, everyone in the canton stood up, including Gavino Sean and Sarah. Again the situation became the center of attention, and it made Danira uncomfortable.

" Waallaikumsalam ". The man straightened his body with a position still sitting resting using his two lutu, he was confused to see Danira had stood up and changed position from the place earlier.

" It doesn't have to be like this to me, I'm also human so you can't pay your respects in this prostration way. You can only bow before the God you believe in ". Danira's words make the man look up to see Danira, his feelings feel something else when hearing Danira's words. Gavino who saw the man's gaze, increasingly clenched his hand to the wife. Gavino could guess if the age of the man who was still sitting on this floor seemed to be the same age as him. Gavino gave an intimidating look.

" Sam....!! deliver them to the waiting room, I'll follow there ". Tell Danira to Sam, who is standing not far from there. Danira will not take anyone carelessly into his room.

" Good Miss.let's gentlemen ". The man got up, walked back a few steps then followed Sam's direction.

" So go on eating it, I stay a while is okay, right ?". Danira asked her husband's permission.

" I have no appetite, I'll come with you to meet the master of the ghost cave ".

" The Swordsman of the Ghost Goa ?".

" Yes!!.Did you not see his appearance?. Is there no sewing machine in the fairyland?, so they come not wearing the right clothes".

" Cckkk. My muscles are much more attractive and muscular ". Gavino's murmur, it makes Danira laugh, what else to see the red face Gavino held back upset because of jealousy, but the man had not said anything and did nothing.

" It seems that the present king still adheres to the system of government and the manner of dressing like the previous auction ". Guess Danira, actually Danira was surprised when she saw the men coming with unusual looks.

" It's a good thing they came I'm here...!! ". muttered Gavino slowly.

***

In the waiting room, the room is dominated by glass, equipped with a soft sofa in green, and in some corners decorated with white, purple moon orchids.

Danira sat slightly slanting towards Gavino, not wanting to be too face to face with the person sitting not far from him. The man took a few steps forward with his knees toward Danira, then he lowered his head to raise his hands that had been clenched, then his two thumbs stuck to his fingertips and the other fingers pointed at Danira. Gavino frowned seeing what this man wanted to do.

" Raden introduce me Simon, Secretary of the Brahmacari Ocean. My arrival here intends to convey the official invitation of the King, Sultan Agung Malik Cahyendra Brahmacari. He asked Raden Ayu to come to power ". Simon conveyed the purpose of his arrival, then took the official letter written on a yellow cloth. He handed it to Danira.

Sarah, who had been standing behind Danira, approached, putting on black gloves. He stretched out his hand, wanting to accept the invitation in Simon's hand.

" But this invitation must be Raden Ayu himself who accepts and reads it ". He saw Sarah snide.

" I just want to make sure that what you're carrying isn't dangerous for Miss ". Ketus Sarah, no less cynical.

" You think I'm going to harm Raden ayu?". Annoyed Simon, raise his tone.

" Nobody knows the intentions of one's heart ". Syndicated Sarah cold. Sean and Gavino only watched the heated debate before them. Danira said he saw Sarah.

" Simon's okay, just give it to him ". Danira said subtly. Simon relented, handing the letter to Sarah.

Sarah opened it, then checked it first, it felt safe and nothing suspicious, Sarah immediately put it on the table in front of the nonanya. Danira's eyes were immediately fixed on the gold stamp that adorned the invitation.

" I'm sorry, but can you just get up and sit on the couch ?".

" I'm sorry Raden, the rules of tyranny, we can't sit one place with a noble family ". Answer Simon honestly.

" But it's not dikeratonan, it's in my place. So you have to follow my wish ". Danira said firmly. Simon seemed to think, should he break the rules he had obeyed for a long time. But considering this Danira's command, Simon got up and sat down on the empty sofa opposite Danira.

" This invitation I received, but I have not been able to give an answer, when exactly I can come ". Simon was silent for a moment, then nodded.

" Good Raden, I will pass this on to Ndoro the Great".

" I beg you to resign ". Simon wanted to pay his respects, prostrating again. But Danira hurriedly prevented it.

" When you meet me again, I hope you don't do this kind of honor to me anymore. Because I don't like ". Simon was silent, confused as to what to answer. If Ndoro Agung knew about this, his head could be be beheaded. Without saying anything else, Simon left the Radenayu Group building with the other bodyguards.

Danira saw the invitation on the table, she had no intention of touching it at all. I don't know why his heart was uncomfortable.

" Dear...". Danira turned to look at Gavino, who was still loyal to be next to him.

" Want to go home now ?". Gavino asked, he knew his wife's mood was not going well at the moment.

" Not yet, there are still some reports that I haven't checked ".

" All right.I'll keep you company until you're done ". Gently stroked Danira's head.

" Sarah.you keep this invitation ". Gavino walked out of the room with Danira. Sean, who had been out first because he got a phone call, now walked up to Gavino in a hurry.

" Sir.....?". Gavino turned to look at Sean. Without Sean telling, Gavino already understood the meaning of Sean's gaze, making Gavino publish a thin grin. They talk through telepathy.

Gavino is back to see Danira.

" Dear, I'm sorry I can't keep you company until you're done ".
