The Book of Dragons

32.SNS

The King, Empress and Kaesang were already sitting together in the central room of Kaputren Palace. The King and Queen sat together.

The two smiled at each other when they came face to face.

"What is the state of the Master now, son?"

The king tried to break the silence that had enveloped this room. After the waiters served food and drinks. Kaesang from earlier was just silent.

"Maha Teacher? He's fine."

Kaesang was still nervous and confused by this reality before him.

"Alhamdulillah if so. Are the students at Padepokan growing?"

"Yes." Yeah." Answer's short.

The Empress looked at the King with a sad feeling, which was depicted on her face. The King only gently stroked the Empress's shoulder "Patience" said the King, trying to calm his heart.

"Is there anything that bothers my son?"

Kaesang remained silent, not knowing where to explain it.

"Do you still have doubts about this truth, my son?"

"I'm sorry King,

"Call me Father and call him Mother, do not keep calling us King and Queen. It makes us sad for my son."

"Sorry Aya, Father."

Kaesang looked down. He's so shy. To see the faces of his parents.

"It's okay. Now tell me about your heartbreak."

The Empress looked at Kaesang and raised her eyebrows. As if asking him to talk soon. Kaesang breathed a few times, before he was ready to speak.

"I'm scared!"

The King and the Empress stared at each other, not believing what the two heard.

"Fearful? What are you gonna fear about my son?" Asked the King to be worried.

"I fear my coming into the Kingdom. Will make Mother and Kingdom again cursed."

Haha.

The King and Empress smiled in relief at the words of her son. They had a chance to dig dug about what made his son afraid. It was about the curse.

"No problem. The curse is no longer useful, because you are 17 years old."

"really? But I haven't turned 17."

"It's my son."

The Empress continued with her gentle speech.

"But the Great Teacher said,

"Neton's birth was kept secret, which was told by the Supreme Master was a neton before you were born. So now nothing will happen, even if you want to go in and out of the Kingdom."

Kaesang felt relieved now, a smile started to make his face look bright. The Empress and the King were very happy to see that. "Mother can hug this son?" The Empress said expectantly. "Can I also get a hug from Yahanda and Mother." Said Kaesang who also wanted that hug.

"Of course!" Her father sumringah.

She took off the embrace, and now Kaesang was gathered in front of her parents. Under the feet of his Father and Mother, he gave a bow. Kiss the feet of both, beg for blessing, beg for mercy. For what happened because of his arrival in this world. Therefore, it must make his Father and Mother difficult. Accept and face a destiny that keeps them far apart. Kaesang continued to lower his head, clear water dripping slowly on his face.

She was sobbing now, constantly touching her parents' feet. Mother touched Kaesang's shoulder, asking him to rise from his place of rest.

"Wake up my son. My mother and father loved you very much. Whatever you're gonna do to protect yourself. Even though it's life, that has to be exchanged. Stand up!"

Kaesang continued to cry, his trembling legs trying to hold on to get up. The King and the Empress were also saddened to see this Kaesang.

Suddenly came two men to the palace kaputren.1 men are handsome and handsome while the one woman is so ayu.  They walked towards us, "are they my brothers?" I thought Kaesang, seeing their faces that looked similar to him.

"We greet Father and Mother."

"Yes. Introduce her is your sister, whom Father and Mother once told me."

Raden Krangkas was the first son of King and Empress. He will soon be made crown prince. Appoint the King if he has died. While Raden Ayu Arum Mawarni is the second child, already proposed by the Crown Prince of the neighboring Kingdom.

"You are Kaesang?"

Ask Arum Mawarni with his cherry.

"Yes, I'm Kaesang Mahesa."

Kaesang looks very happy, but can not show the right face. His face turned pale, his hands trembling. It made both of his brothers feel anxious.

"Don't hesitate, we are brothers. Call me kakanda and,-

" I'm Yunda!"

Sahut Arum Mawarni full of enthusiasm, he was very happy to be able to gather with his sister.

"Okay, Yunda and Kakanda."

Kaesang was still so embarrassed by lowering his gaze.

"Why so nervous, smile! No one will eat you, if you smile a little, right?"

Arum Mawarni tried to melt Kaesang's troubled feelings. From his view, Kaesang looked happy, but also confused. Maybe I just met, so it's not unusual.

As for us, acting so familiar even though this was also the first time seeing Kaesang. But we already know the story from Ayahanda and Mother. From one full moon to the next. From one year to the next, we always waited together for his arrival. Now so clearly in front of us, it feels so good to see him. His face was also very similar to that of Ayahanda and Kakanda Krangkas, very handsome and dignified.

"Then bring your sister here, and tell her where the room is."

Said the King firmly in a low tone.

"Alright" Sahut Arum Mawarni was very happy and excited.

"Come Dinda! We'll show you the way." Take Krangkas, who is already embracing Kaesang's shoulder.

The Empress and King smiled and nodded as Kaesang looked towards the two. "Go!" Said the King who was also followed by the Empress. Kaesang nodded and followed his Kakanda and Yundanya.

The Kaputran Palace.

The three sons of the King were already standing in front of the big door, outside Kaesang's room.

"This is Dinda Kaesang's room, let's go inside." Said Krangkas after opening the door.

Kaesang walked in, trailing behind her Kakanda and Yundanya. "This room is so spacious, am I the only one who sleeps here alone?" Ask Kaesang to yourself. While continuing to highlight from the corner to the corner of this room. From a sturdy bed, very soft mattress even there is a pillow as well. There is one table and one chair that complements.

"Then we'll go, Dinda please rest first."

Krangkas' remarks left Kaesang in his room alone.
