Sanggana Swordsman
18. The Face Behind the Mask
Uuu fuu uuu...!
Before Joko stepped away, the leaf-masked woman quickly blew her silver flute with a different rhythm than before.
Hearing the flute's voice, Joko suddenly fell silent. He realized there was something strange about the sound of the flute.
“The drama is trying to control my mind,” makes Joko. Therefore, Joko tried to concentrate to fight the influence of the flute rhythm that sounded melodious but felt strange in feeling.
However, as much as possible Joko tried to concentrate so that his thoughts and feelings were not affected, still his pair of eyes began to dim. Until finally, Joko's pair of eyes closed both.
Knowing Joko has been affected by the rhythm of her flute, the masked woman then changes the tone of the rhythm. It made Joko turn herself to face the woman. Next, Joko stepped forward to approach the woman, as if Joko was moving on the beat of the flute. Finally, Joko stood one step ahead of the woman. Joko moved down crouching.
The woman stopped her flute game. The music stops. A few seconds later, Joko's pair of closed eyes opened. Joko.
“Hah!” pekik Joko was surprised.
Spontaneously he pushed his body leaping backwards and then fell to the ground.
The masked woman now saw Joko sitting with breath sounding breathless, as her chest that descended rose rapidly. Although he did not see the face of Joko because it was covered by his wide caping, but the masked woman could see sweat suddenly appear to pour up to Joko's chin. Joko looks like a man out of steam.
The masked woman was astonished to see Joko's condition. He was very sure, the influence of his flute would not make people become weak as experienced by Joko.
“Hey, what happened to you, Kisanak?” ask the woman.
“I told you, I can't, get close to you,” replied Joko breathlessly.
“I only control you for a moment and make you come closer to me, why did you arrive like someone who wanted to die?” ask the woman.
“Let me go, then I will remember your good deeds,” said Joko who was aware of not being able to face the flute science of the masked woman.
“No, before you take off the mask on my face. I don't want to call another man anymore. What happens if the man who comes later is not a good man,” said the woman.
“I am also not a good man, let me go,” Joko said in a tone of voice that began to normalize, indicating his condition began to gradually recover.
“Not no no. Child, try to think of a way to take off my mask.”
“Easy, use both hands,” Joko said.
“I told you already, it must be someone else who unlocks this mask!” tough masked woman.
“Hah!” Joko breathed a chest. He who has recovered quickly, stands up. “Good, I will help you in the last way, because there is no other way. But, after I help open it, you have to let me go, don't use your flute to play me.”
“Good, I'll let you go.”
“Now you are silent, so that I am not disturbed,” said Joko.
The masked woman was silent.
“Four steps,”ucap Joko lirih calculate the distance with the woman.
He also raised his right hand to waist height, aligning it with the height of the face of the woman sitting. Joko then closed his eyes and began to chant to create an imagination about the figure of a man, not a woman like the one now in front of him.
“The prince of chickens stuck in tangled yarn, the prince of chickens stuck in tangled yarn, keok-keok seven rounds, earthworm rolls,”, said Joko mercapal while creating an image in his mind. The sentence is similar Joko repeated so that the shadow on his head really seems to manifest real.
Joko's repeated rapes make the masked woman so amused smile, although she does not know what the meaning of Joko's spell is.
Furthermore, Joko advanced quickly with four measurable steps. Joko's right hand that has been directed directly to the right touch the leaf mask on the woman's face. With her eyes closed, Joko pulled off the mask from the arrangement. After that, Joko stepped back.
Taps!
Joko Calm was surprised, until her closed eyes were opened. His backward motion was restrained because his hand was held and held by the woman.
However, the beautiful beauty did not arouse Joko's feelings, because she quickly turned limp, because her right hand was held firmly by the girl. Joko fell to her knees with a flinched face, then fell drooping, lying on the ground. Lacing Joko's head to the ground made her caping loose from her head and made her face fully exposed. The girl who was initially surprised because of the fall of Joko, now turned flabbergasted to see the good looks of the young man, so it did not feel he continued to hold Joko's hand.
Moments later, the girl regained her senses and hurriedly removed her hand from Joko's hand. The girl moved from her seat and approached Joko. He no longer sat down.
“Why are you, Kisanak?” ask the girl a little panicked.
“So far,” said Joko was very weak, barely audible.
The beautiful girl was silent for a moment, as if she was digesting the meaning of Joko's words. But in the end, the girl moved away from the position she had occupied.
“He is so handsome,” imprints the girl in heart. “But what really happened to him?”
The girl just stood watching Joko from five steps away. Joko seemed to be trying to get up, but his strength was so weak as to lift his upper body. The girl moved closer wanting to help.
“Do not approach!” joko exclaimed quickly, but weakly.
The girl held herself back.
“Let me for a moment,” said Joko again and chose to remain lying down, enjoying her strange illness.
The woman's distance, making Joko's energy and blood flow recover. Until not how long, Joko can wake up to a sitting position. While waiting for his strength to recover, Joko looked at the beautiful girl dressed in white.
“Actually, what happened to you?” ask the woman.
Joko Calm actually replied with a smile that was so alluring in the eyes of the girl.
“I became limp and not powered,” replied Joko after a few moments of silence.
“I know you're being weak like that. But, what makes you like that, when I didn't attack you in the slightest?”
“Because you held me,” replied Joko.
Slightly widened the pair of eyes the girl heard Joko's reply. He doesn't understand.
“How can I make you helpless just by holding your hand? I also did not exert any energy in or any science. Other men will actually be passionate if held by a beautiful girl like me,” said the girl slightly offended because it was blamed as the cause of the young man clapping in front of her became sick.
“Sorry, it is not your fault,” said Joko responding weakly. He then heavily moved to stand up, but still slightly bent, unable to gallant. Then he said again, “This is one of my diseases that should not be close to women. I told you I couldn't, but you insisted. I told you to shut up so I wouldn't get distracted, but you held my hand instead.”
The girl silently heard Joko's explanation. In his heart he admitted that he had been disobedient with the direction of the red-lipped youth.
“I'm sorry if that's the case,” said the woman.
“Already. With you away, you indirectly help me to recover,” said Joko. Then ask, “What's your name?”
“Kumala Rimbayu,” replied the girl.
“For me at a later date can keep your distance when I meet you,” said Joko.
“But, Kisanak,” says Kumala fast. “Because you have unmasked my leaf and freed me from the Earth science of My teacher's Jat Raga ..”
“Eh!” joko exclaimed quickly, cutting off Kumala's words. “Because I have fulfilled your request, then do not prevent me from leaving. Excuse me.”
Joko who has recovered moves to pick up the caping and then he put it back on the head, so that it covers his head and face above him. Then he turned and walked away.
“I won't let you go, Young Man!”
Suddenly one loud sound wave of a man echoed loudly, making Joko who had recovered her condition, stop stepping. (BH)
