The artificial river...
The fabric I wear is thin and also short, so it still has to wear kemben and short legging. Just in case something happens beyond expectations.
Now I was still silent in front of the river, not daring to get any closer to him. The distance between us was probably about three meters, and now he was watching me.
"Why stay there? You don't want to come near me?"
He asked easily, not thinking about how I felt. Moreover, my cloth is quite high, one inch above the knee. It seems like he was deliberately asking me to wear it.
Am I going to be his geisha tonight?
It had occurred to him that it would be like that, being a loyal servant to him. I curled my hair so as not to attract his attention. But it seems, he's getting more interested. He walked closer to me.
Prince ....
I don't know why the closer he gets, the less I get. I'm agitated myself. My heart kind of signaled if something was going to happen to us this afternoon. She came out of the river, walking while showing her bravery to me. But, I felt uncomfortable with the pants he was wearing, like tight and short swim trousers.
"Em, Pa-prince ...."
I put my footsteps back as he got closer. I think I just want to run. I did not dare to look at his face, whose height was only his shoulder. So if I want to see his face clearly, I have to look up.
"You're afraid of me?" He walked closer.
"Pa-prince."
I can't do this, my body feels so weird. I immediately turned around to avoid it, running towards the door of this room. But, before I could open the door, I felt Zu's hands clutching tightly to my body.
"I told you, don't run. You're so wayward, Ara."
"Prince .. ak-aku ...."
As if at a loss for words, my body trembled itself upon coming into direct contact with his body. And it seemed like Zu realized, he then kissed my right shoulder gently.
"Prince .. emmhh ...."
I bit my own lips, unable to fight against it. His grip was so strong that I had no power to escape. Her breath was hot on my shoulder. And slowly his lips went down my shoulder. Slowly creeping towards my neck.
"Pa-prince!"
I tried to brush her lips, shrugging my shoulders. But instead, Zu bit my right ear. Instantly it also came out a sigh that could no longer be held back by my lips.
"Prince, already. Don't continue."
My voice was hoarse, like it was stuck in my throat. My body feels so weird. I couldn't feel the touch of her soft lips.
"Ara, I know if you want it. Don't hold it, honey." He kissed me again.
Uh! I'm on the verge of control.
"Prince, we can't be like this." I'm trying to negotiate.
"Can't you? It's just you saying, not me."
"Prince, already. Uh!"
My body was completely goosebumps, my entire body was shaking as he continued to kiss the nape of my neck from behind. I can't keep going like this. Really, I feel so weak.
"Take it off, as I let it go," he said again without caring for me who was already helpless.
She kept putting her soft lips on my upper arm, my shoulder, the nape of my neck, up to my back. His lips went guerrilla along both of my shoulders and stopped at the middle of the nape of my neck. He kissed her so many times that I felt like I could no longer stand up.
"Huh .. hah ...."
I was helpless, completely helpless. He turned my body towards him. I saw her smiling sweetly and started caressing my face with her right hand, while her left hand held my hip.
"Prince, enough ...."
My breath gasps, I can no longer afford it if this continues. I could lose control of myself.
"Ara .. You know I love you very much. This afternoon I'll leave it all to you. I'll give you what I have as proof of how much I can't bear this love alone."
"Prince ...."
I looked at her face, I saw her looking at me deeply. He also began to bring his face closer to my face, slightly lowered to more freely reach for these lips.
"Prince, no!"
With the rest of my energy, I pushed him. He was finally pushed back, though not too far away. His face suddenly turned out, maybe he was angry with me.
"Prince, we're not married. I'm afraid we're getting ragged. Please don't be like this" I said, still gasping.
"No, Prince. Can't do. I—"
"You're still thinking about those two princes?" Zu started to change his gaze, he looked coldly at me.
"Prince, I can't rush. I can't forget them." I'm trying to be honest.
At once Zu walked quickly towards me. He leaned me against the wall of the room. Both of my hands were lifted up by him.
"What did you say, Ara? You haven't forgotten them?" he asked like full of anger.
"Prince, our marriage is already planned. I can't just leave. I ... I—"
"Enough, Ara! Don't you have any more painful words for me?!"
"Prince—"
"I love you, love you so much. I am like a traveler in the desert who is dying of thirst. And you came carrying litres of water. Do you think I'll let you go?!" He looked at me so sharply.
"Prince—"
"No, Ara. I'm not gonna do it. You're wrong to think I'm gonna let you back into space. Tonight I'll tie you up, I'll fertilize your womb."
"Prince, you're crazy!"
Don't know what else to tell him. I panicked and felt so cornered. So those words came out of my mouth.
"You're saying I'm crazy? Huh! Youre right. I've gone mad. I'm crazy because of you, Ara!!!"
"Prince, no!"
Zu pulled the cloth I was wearing. So that my inner self may be seen in front of both eyes. I don't know what to do, I can't move at all.
"Next month I'll marry you. I told my father and I bless him. I promise you. In two weeks I will finish all the work in the palace. And then we'll get married." Zu is serious.
I just shut my eyes, unable to see.
"I've asked the ministers to prepare our feast. So, you just sit sweetly at home," he said.
"Prince, please don't be like this." I beg.
"Ara, I can't accept rejection from you. I know that you love me too. Don't let me do anything just because of you."
"You-you mean?" I tried to see him speak very close to my face.
"You know, my country is bigger than the land of your two princes."
"Pa-prince—"
"If you refuse this marriage, I will help the enemy country to attack the Space. Even if necessary, Asia alone would attack and get rid of the two princes."
"What-what?!" I was very surprised by his words.
"I'm crazy, Ara. So please obey me. I'll be your husband. Obey me. Because I'll never mess with my words."
"Prince Zu—"
"If you want the land of the two princes to be fine, then make peace with your heart. Have me completely."
"Prince ...."
A great commandment I have received and must obey. I can no longer refuse what he wants. Zu threatened to invade the land of my two princes if I did not obey him. I feel so depressed.
Oh my God ....
True what the Great Elder said, I must not go against the current. If it fights, it will be very dangerous. Not only for me, but for my two princes.
"Prince Zu, please don't do that. I don't want any bloodshed because of me." I beg.
"So you understand now?" he asked as he continued to look at me, even though I tried to turn my eyes away from him.
I nodded slowly, understand.
"Look at me, Ara. Look me in the eye if you really understand."
Hearing that I can only obey. Looking towards him, looking at his face then nodding. Then he looked very happy.
"Now kiss me with all your heart" he asked, making my heartbeat quick.
He then removed his hand from both hands. I must kiss him with all my heart. I attached this face and began to reach for those ripe lips. I'm resigned, helpless.
