52. The Feelings in the Heart of Nintari
*Kahyangan Arak*
Exit from the cliff, they still traveled the rocky area, but the earth pattern decreased.
“Puspa, are you from the royal family?” ask Joko. He was curious about the woman.
“Puspa who has a kingdom. Later if Puspa meets Getara and Aswa, Puspa will hit his ass, hihihik!” replied Puspa and laughed.
“Not will they catch you?” ask Joko again.
“Cannot. Puspa has the science of Gate Without Borders,” replied Puspa.
Puspa suddenly stopped on a large rock. Joko stopped at the big rock next to her. They looked at the vast expanse of boulders in front of them. Sunlight has not hit the area, there is still the light of the twilight sky that still provides lighting. Soon dark night will embrace the Rocky Jungle.
“That's Black Aisle!” point Puspa in the far direction.
Joko Calm could see a black hole under the rock cliffs above which grew a dense forest.
“That's the door of the Windscreen Kingdom region,” said Puspa. “Puspa does not want to go in there, many of his soldiers Getara. They will definitely catch Puspa.”
“Come go with me. If you are with me, the Windscreen warriors will not catch you,” Joko said persuading. “Later we will eat well in the kingdom.”
“No! Puspa food must have been poisoned!” puspa.
Far ahead there appeared one purple-colored human figure that shot from one stone to the top of another. His movement was clearly heading towards the direction where Joko and Puspa were. As it got closer, it was discovered that the figure was a woman. Getting closer, Joko can recognize the figure of a teenage woman who is about 15 years old.
The figure of the beautiful little girl stopped on a lower rock in front of Joko and Puspa. The presence of Nintari aka Bidadari Cemetery Flute makes Puspa look unfriendly.
“Who is that dirty woman you're with, Joko?” ask Nintari.
“Hei! Who is dirty?!” bentak Puspa's.
“Quiet, Puspa. He's a friend,” Joko told Puspa.
“Not, she's Getara Love. Puspa never saw it with the army of Windscreen!” rebut Puspa. He then turned to look at Joko and pointed at her with his long black hoofed finger. “You're lying! You are also Getara Cinta's man! Puspa doesn't want to be friends!”
Puspa then turned around and jumped onto another rock to leave.
“Wait, Puspa! I'm not Getara Cinta!” exclaim Joko while jumping following Puspa.
“Do not follow Puspa!” bentak Puspa's.
Whuss!
A wind of blows is unleashed by Puspa, making Joko jump back and down to take cover behind a rock. The wind was passing over Joko's head. Joko could feel the poison in the wind.
After the wind passed, Joko turned her head to Puspa, but the slum had flashed far south. Nintari was still standing in her place.
Nature is getting dark. The Black Aisle shown by Puspa earlier began to be faintly visible.
Nintari jumped and landed near Joko. Joko immediately jumped back keeping her distance.
“Are you heading for the Windscreen?” nintari asked with a smile seeing Joko's actions.
“Then who is that dirty woman?” ask Nintari.
“Name Puspa. You're the one who's been in this region longer doesn't know him?”
“No.”
“I found it when I was confused looking for a way to the Windscreen. Her figure is mysterious,” said Joko. “Then where are you going?”
“My work in Windscreen Kingdom has been done since you defeated me. I'm gonna go. However, it's night. Lucky I met again with that handsome young man who seven years ago wanted me to have. Would you like to spend the night with me here?”
“I have to go after my future wife, I worry about them,” replied Joko.
“No need to worry about them. I saw them being escorted by the Windscreen warrior towards the palace. Maybe tonight they arrive. If you insist on continuing the journey, it's too dark. Overnight with me here, tomorrow I will take you to meet Queen Getara Cinta,” said Nintari.
“But you don't sleep near me,” said Joko conditioned.
“Why? I'm pretty and tiny. Your future wife won't know. Don't you want to get a kiss from me? Hihihi!” nintari said acting a little flirtatious.
“I've never been kissed. I can die if I get it,” said Joko.
“Hihihik!” nintari laughed. Then he said, “Don't you know that there are so many men fighting over me just to touch me?”
“Hah!” Joko. “Only to touch you? So you've been touched a lot?”
“No, because the man who dared to touch me will die.”
“Your skin is toxic?” ask Joko lugu.
“I killed him!” nintari toilet.
“Luckily I'm not a guy who likes to touch,” said Joko.
“Let me be a flirtatious woman, but I am still holy from the touch of a man.”
“I like women like that,” said Joko. “You wait here, let me find firewood.”
“Good. But remember, don't forget to come back here,” said Nintari.
Joko just smiled. Then he flashed away. Moving in such rocky areas is indeed more effective using the science of body lightening. Nintari was waiting on the stone. He seemed to be smiling to himself as he looked at the handsome young man's departure.
Since the beginning of meeting with Joko seven years ago, Nintari does have an interest in Joko who is much younger than him. But at that time, Nintari who chose the way of life to work for people who pay, was defending a gang of criminals. The story was set in “Bawn Robbers King Gagah”.
The feeling that struck Nintari's heart when meeting Joko at Sumur Juara was different from the taste that now enveloped her heart. Now Nintari has no responsibility whatsoever to someone when meeting Joko, different when it comes to winning against Joko when fighting at Sumur Juara.
Although the physical is not unusual, namely the physical teenager but the age of 45 years, Nintari still has a normal female soul. So no wonder when he sat pensively waiting for the arrival of Joko at that time, his mind played in the imagination about his relationship with the figure of a man. But until now, Nintari never lust to have a male companion, except the story of his past 25 years ago which ended with the destruction of heart and love.
With a dark history of love, Nintari looks down on all men until when she meets Joko in the twilight, there seems to be a shift in principle in her heart about the male figure. Although she has a science of attraction, she is not the kind of woman who is soft in love. In the course of his career as a mercenary, it was unclear how many men had died at his hands from lust to touch or harass him as a woman.
Although Nintari sees a different character in Joko with a male character in general, he does not want to easily waver, he did not want to waver, moreover, Joko blatantly revealed that she was looking for a lot of women to be made a wife. It was completely contrary to his principles and heart. (BH)
