"Surge you, Kalandra! Don't block my path!"
"It's cool you're holding Rosalina like that—"
"Whatdidyou say? Rosalina?! You keep my words. She's Cornelia! It's not Rosalina like you said!"
Mr. Mahawira continued his steps. Whereas I was so comfortable on the back of that man's field. I feel like this forever and I don't want to move for a second.
"Don't follow us, Kalandra Rancid!"
"What right do you have to forbid me?"
"You remember you used to vilify Cornelia? That's why you have no right to follow where Cornelia and I went!"
"All right, I'm sorry."
"I don't care about your apology. Get out of my sight."
"Stupid! I'm not sorry about you, Mahawira! C-Cornelia .. m-forgive me."
I immediately turned my head towards Mr. Kalandra who was walking to the right of Mr. Mahawira.
"Hmm, yeah. Slaba—"
"Attent. From now on, don't talk too formally to me, C-Cornelia."
Why also this rancid Kalandra looks timid. She's just like a girl. How disgusting.
"Good, Sir. I've forgiven you."
"What right?!" Mr. Kalandra looks cramped.
"Hey, Cornelia! Why did you forgive him so soon? You should have given him punishment first."
"Be quiet, Rancid Mahawira! I don't want to talk to you."
I exhaled a long breath. "alright. Just look. I forgive Mr. Kalandra, but what if Mr. Kalandra proves your seriousness and promises not to repeat what you did?" bargained.
It's also good to punish the man. Therefore, I have an idea to take advantage of the situation.
Hihahi. I'll do you a favor, Mr. Arrogant!
"I'm willing. What can I do for you, Cornelia?"
"It's easy." I try to think while putting my index finger on my chin. "You must help Mr. Mahawira."
"What?!" Mr. Mahawira and Kalandra were simultaneously surprised.
"I? M-help Mahawira? For what?! I should've done something for you, Cornelia. Not for the rancid Mahawira."
"Am I not the one who asked for Master? That is, Master helped me grant Mr. Mahawira a wish to help."
Prince Kalandra frowned, then let out a long breath.
"All right."
"But I won't want him to help me!" firmly Mr. Mahawira.
"Master, come. There is no point in fighting with Prince Kalandra anymore. Do something that will make your bond tight" I explained.
Why did I become like their parents? Just whatever. After all, I don't care about Prince Kalandra. All I care about is—
"Hey, Cornelia!"
Mr. Mahawira wastes my imagination.
"Down for a moment. I'm tired enough because you're so heavy."
My hand reflexively floated, then landed on the man's shoulder. "I'm not heavy!" my firmness.
"Eh? You why? Why are you so angry like that? Am I wrong?" Mr. Mahawira frowned, as if he did not know his mistake. Or because he doesn't know? I don't know, all men are like that.
"Know, ah." I sniffed while blinking my lips.
Meanwhile, Mr. Kalandra approached. "Cornelia, you'll be with me. I am stronger than Mahawira" whispered the prince sharply.
My forehead shrinks.
This guy is disgusting.
"Come, Cornelia! I'm still strong. Get on my back."
"No, Mister. Sorry ...."
Immediately I moved away from Mr. Kalandra, then approached my true master again. I see Mr. Kalandra showing a look of disappointment. However, I don't really care.
From now on, I only saw Mr. Mahawira looking down while resting his hand on a tree. I don't know what he's doing.
"Master?"
I immediately peeked at the man's face.
"God! Master!" I cried out in panic after seeing Mr. Mahawira vomiting. Even more worrying, my master spewed out a red viscous liquid.
"What's the matter, sir?" ask me while holding my master's body. It is clear that Mr. Mahawira is getting weaker. His body almost collapsed many times.
I put my palms on Mr. Mahawira's forehead, so hot it made me panic even more.
"There's no need to panic" he staggered as he held my shoulder.
"But, Mister. How am I not worried about this kind of Master?!"
"Have—"
Mr. Mahawira almost fell down, but soon I caught him and fell into my arms.
"Mr Kalandra! Help me!" call me shouting because the prince is far enough away from where I am.
Soon the prince ran and helped me bring Mr. Mahawira.
----------------------
After successfully bringing Mr. Mahawira to the inn, I went to and fro to find my master a medicinal plant. Fortunately, in the market many are selling so it does not make me panic too much.
After finishing pounding the plants, I put it on Mr. Mahawira's forehead and put a cloth on it that had been dipped in warm water.
"Ouch, Sir. Actually, sir why?" I asked as I looked down at the man with the thick blanket provided by the inn.
"How is Mahawira?" ask Prince Kalandra who just came in.
"The body is getting hotter, sir. I ... I don't know what to do." I feel like my tears are going to spill. It is the saddest thing I have experienced when my master is not doing well.
"It looks like he was exposed to poison from an enemy weapon from a previous fight. Did you put the medicine in his wound?"
"Already, Sir. In his hand were two wounds of sabetage, I had already covered and tied them with a cloth."
"Good then. Now, relax. Just trust me she'll be okay."
I nodded slowly even though my heart would never calm down. It never will.
Prince Kalandra came out of the inn, leaving me to look after Mr. Mahawira.
I tried again to ascertain my master's body temperature, but in fact there was no change. He continued to shiver coldly, his lips trembling, pale, and dry.
Yeah, God. What am I supposed to do? Please, God. Heal Mr. Mahawira.
My crying finally spilled without being held back by the fertilizer. Hoarding the river, sobbing at the thought of the man experiencing such a thing at this moment.
After thinking for a long time, I decided to do something I really shouldn't do. However, for the sake of the man's health, I was willing to do so. I was willing to do something inappropriate and so presumptuous to her.
I took off the coat, then opened some cloth wrapped around the body one by one. Along with her tears on the wooden floor, I went into the blanket and hugged my master so as to no longer feel the tormenting cold.
Sir, may I be the sun to warm you up? If possible, I am ready to accompany you forever. Sir, please, feel the warmth I give you. Sorry if I'm too presumptuous.
I closed both eyes, then hugged Mr. Mahawira tightly. Tears were still falling as if the rain was longing for the earth.
Sleep in the warm cradle of my love, Mr. Mahawira ....
------------------
Opening my eyes, I saw that the room was illuminated by the sunlight that came from the window. However, I do not feel the existence of Mr. Mahawira like how I hugged him last night. When I checked, the man vanished and left behind only the cloth I used to compress him.
I'm budging. I saw my coat and kimono folded neatly on the chair. I'll put it on immediately, then get out of the inn.
"Master! Master Mahawira!" I shouted throughout the room I passed.
Even outside the inn I did not find my master. It made me feel sad again. When a little more tears came, a hand slapped my shoulder.
While turning around, I was so excited. "Mr Maha—"
It turned out to be just Mr. Kalandra. I'm a little disappointed.
After a long period of silence, Prince Kalandra hinted by moving his head to the right. My eyeballs turned, and I saw Mr. Mahawira from a distance carrying two antelopes on his shoulders.
My smile expands, tears shed. Just a moment until my expression changed.
Oh, geez. I forgot! Last night's events she'll ask. I have to hurry!
When he was about to lift a step, Mr. Mahawira called my name so that it was closed.
"What's the matter, Cornelia? Did you sleep well last night?" he asked as if nothing had ever happened between me and him.
Why am I more upset when she acts as if she knows nothing?! It sucks! It sucks! I want to grab her hair, then bang her head against the wall!
"Nye-suffer, T-Master," I replied as I nodded.
"Oh, good."
When I rolled my eyes, I saw Mr. Kalandra being a little quiet. His face was not like before.
"I'm sorry, I'm .. looking for food first. I'll bring it to you guys, too."
Foot placed by the prince. Mr. Mahawira scrunched his forehead.
"Tumben the rancid Kalandra was being nice."
"Maybe you're hungry, sir."
"Oh, yeah. Has Birendra not returned from yesterday?"
"I don't know. It doesn't seem to be back yet."
"Squeaky. Then, come on, let's give these antelopes to the innkeeper."
I nodded and followed in Master Mahawira's footsteps.
----------------------
At night, as I was about to go to sleep, my mind was unrelenting to remember my shameful actions. The softness of Mr. Mahawira's body was still felt in every inch of my skin. I can't lose as hard as trying to forget it.
Well, why am I so slovenly thinking like this?! Cornellias! Come on, forget about that! Focus, then sleep!
My room and Mr. Mahawira's room are in one room, limited only by a wooden wall. Of course, if I wanted to go to the man's room, I could easily do it. Just through the door, then I will be able to see the adorable face of my master while sleeping.
I don't know, the desire to see the adorable face of Mr. Mahawira suddenly came to mind. My mind has started to go insane ever since I gave .. warmth to my master.
When I stepped towards the door to obey the words of the day to see Mr. Mahawira sleeping, I was suddenly reunited with him.
"T-Master," I said shamelessly.
"Where are you going?" tanyanya full of search..
"Where are you going, too?" He even asked back.
"Hmm .. anu .. anu ...."
I was surprised when Mr. Mahawira grabbed my hand and held it with two hands. My face is still out of his sight.
"W-why, Mister?"
"Thank you for giving me warmth."
Heart beats uncontrollably. My breath roars great. I ventured to look into her sharp eyes like an eagle.
"Will you ... do it one more time with me?"
At once everything I saw darkened, there was only me and my handsome master in a void.
