Voices From Other Realms

Arum gave birth

Raden Prana was surprised that for five days Dimas did not come to work on his farm.

Raden Prana on horseback came to the house that Dimas had rented, the house looked deserted and the front door was wide open.

"Excuse me.....Dimas...,"call Raden Prana.

There was no answer from inside the house...

"Dimas..I entered yes..," cried Raden Prana.

There were no signs of Dimas or Anum, and the door of their room was wide open.

"Excuse me....Dimass....Anum...," Raden Prana still calls.

But there was no answer, Raden Prana went into the kitchen.

"Where are they?" Raden Prana speaks for himself.

Raden Prana then got out of there and closed the door.

"What's going to Ki Sowa's house?" muttered.

Raden Prana climbed onto the back of his horse, then headed towards Ki Sowa's house not far from there.

After arriving in front of Ki Sowa's house, Raden Prana got off his horse.

"Excuse me...Ki Sowa." call Raden Prana.

Nyi Sowa who came out of the house in a row.

"Raden Prana's...Ki Sowa has gone to sell bananas Raden..," said Nyi Sowa after seeing Raden Prana who came.

"What is the need for Raden to find Ki Sowa?" ask Nyi Sowa.

"It's okay, Nyi, I just want to ask if Dimas and his wife are here? it's been five days Dimas hasn't come to work."

"So I was new from his house, just there was no one, I looked for them here" Raden Prana explained.

"They didn't come here Raden." replied Nyi Sowa.

"Where did they go?" ask Raden Prana.

"Have five days without Raden?" Nyi Sowa asked back.

"Where are they going?" Raden Prana.

"Let's take another look at Raden's house" asked Nyi Sowa.

Nyi Sowa also felt astonished, going where they thought.

"Let's Nyi..," replied Raden Prana.

Nyi Sowa then walked towards Dimas' house, Raden Sowa followed from behind with his horse.

After arriving, Nyi Sowa knocked on the door.

"Just open Nyi.

Nyi Sowa opened the unlocked door, they then entered.

Nyi Sowa looked towards the open Dimas room.

Looks like the bed is in a mess like it's been slept on.

Nyi Sowa also opened a wooden cabinet in the room, still looks Dimas and Anum clothes that are not much in the closet.

"Their clothes still have Raden.", said Nyi Sowa.

Raden Prana was amazed, where the couple married.

If the two of them left, they should have brought their clothes.

"Their clothes are also all new Raden, maybe they just bought after they live here" said Nyi Sowa.

"Did something happen to them Nyi?" ask Raden Prana.

"Entah Raden, they do not know the people here.so confused also we have to ask who," replied Nyi Sowa.

"I ask for help Nyi, tomorrow Nyi Sowa comes again here to check if they have returned," pinta Raden Prana.

"Pity they have nobody here" added Raden Prana.

"Well, Raden." replied Nyi Sowa.

"Let's go back, thanks for the help" Raden Prana said.

Nyi Sowa smiled, Raden Prana is indeed humble.

Raden Prana soon returns to his own home to inform Arum.

Raden Prana thought, although his wife did not get along with his brother, surely Arum still loved his brother.

After arriving home, Raden Prana meets Arum.

"Why does Kangmas look worried?" ask Arum.

"Dimas and Anum disappeared from his home" Raden Prana told the court.

Arum fell silent, and Raden Prana learned of the disappearance of Anum and Dimas.

Raden Prana, who saw Arum speechless, thought Arum was worried about his brother.

"Don't worry Arum, maybe they're leaving because there's a sudden affair" comforted Raden Prana to gently pat Arum on the back.

"We'll wait for Arum to hear back, maybe they'll be back soon" added Raden Prana.

"Anum and Dimas will not return Kangmas, "but Arum only replied inwardly.

If Raden Prana had known, Arumumah had destroyed them both...

Raden Prana would not have expected, his wife who looked meek had made a pact with a demon that had toppled many lives.

If only he knew, he knew what he would do.

**********

It has been a few months since the disappearance of Dimas and Anum, Raden Prana concluded that Anum and Dimas had indeed left the place and went to another place because there was something.

Arum's stomach was getting bigger, soon Arum will be preparing to give birth.

Nyi Sowa appointed Raden Prana to examine and control the development of Arum content.

Raden Prana is so protective of Arum, he indulges his wife more that can make others feel envious.

Approaching the time before Arum gave birth, Raden Prana never left Arum for a second.

He left all his work to his confidants to watch over his workers.

Arum was very lucky to have Raden Prana with whom he loved him very much and treated him gently.

*******

"Oek..oek.." sounded the cry of a newborn baby.

"Congratulations Gusti ayu..kidannya women..kantik," Nyi Sowa's voice was heard from inside Arum's room.

Raden Prana who from earlier restlessly waited outside the room could finally breathe a sigh of relief.

The servants back and forth brought warm water and other necessities that Nyi Sowa requested.

"Come Raden...Gusti ayu Anum gave birth to a very beautiful Princess," Nyi Sowa came out to call Raden Prana.

Raden Prana immediately barged in, and saw the tiny baby that had already been bathed.

The baby was so beautiful, Raden Prana was stunned to see the tiny baby.

Arum was still lying weak, he smiled as soon as he saw Raden Prana come in to see him.

Raden Prana approached Arum, and kissed him on the forehead.

"Thank you dear.you have given me a beautiful Princess.it is as beautiful as you," Raden Prana smiled warmly.

Arum shed happy tears from the corner of his eyes.

Arum looked at the beautiful baby who was beside him, he gently rubbed the red cheeks of his little baby.

Raden Prana wiped the tears dripping from the corner of Arum's eyes.

"Don't cry baby" Raden Prana said.

"I'm crying because I'm so happy Kangmas." Arum smiled.

"Would you name our daughter Arum?" ask Raden Prana.

"Asmita Kangmas means victory" replied Arum.

"Asmita.beautiful name," Raden Prana stroked Arum's hair.

"You're good at picking names" praises Raden Prana.

"He will be a pride and will be a symbol of victory" Arum murmured.

He looked at Asmita with affection...
