GALIH AYU (The General)
get out of the house

Aum fell ill, since returning from the early morning hours Aum's body temperature rose drastically.he refused all the visits that came even from his biological mother in addition to the healer Rama who periodically came to check. every time there was a conversation about the day the annoyance would rise making his head much more dizzy.It is better he avoids everyone who will find him with a lot of questions.

' is the princess seroja already better ?' doctor Rama asked when the afternoon came to check on him.

Aum was still sleeping with sweat filling his entire body.The lady repeatedly changed his clothes and bedding. Graha is waiting in the reading room with the Physician Rama.

' you know the princess healer is very stubborn, he is very difficult to take medicine Graha complained.

' even though the princess fell asleep she was still able to fight back when we forced her to take medicine, the ladies-in-waiting was hurt by it Graha said.

Physician Rama only chuckles at Graha's endless nagging, he knows Graha hides her worried feelings well. everyone worried about her but the stubborn girl shunned her entire family and locked herself in her yard for almost 5 days.

' the court has sent a letter to the hearing for another 2 days ' Graha's voice seemed to float in the air.

Physician Rama can only be silent to hear the news.at this time all forms of evidence or witnesses roared towards Princess Seroja, although this included accidents but endangering the lives of others. the possibility of Princess Seroja will get a punishment even though it is not heavy.

a lady-in-waiting came to report that the Princess had finished changing clothes, Graha immediately drove the healer to check on her master.

the color of the skin is so pale and the sweat that is still pouring from the forehead of the princess makes the healer rama hold his breath for a moment.

' the poison left behind when it was injured was reacting, did Princess Seroja take her antidote ? ' asked Tabib Rama to Graha always the closest person to the princess.

' I always beside him when taking the antidote ' replied Graha.

' then that means the dose I gave yesterday will be increased, the Princess will attend the trial right ' said Physician Rama.

after giving Graha's order to buy a prescription drug that he wrote, Physician Rama sat quietly while drinking jasmine tea that he liked. occasionally he glanced at Princess Seroja who looked restless in her sleep. actually the pain of Princess Seroja is a recurrent disease.the wound that he was late in treating it there is a poison that the girl got while fighting. The poison used by the Seroja royal forces is easy to detox what if it is exposed to men but this poison is fused with blood feathers if it hits women, and it happens to Princess Seroja. No one knows except the Princess and her assistant and she herself. The poison will occasionally relapse and make the patient's condition worse, but with the regular consumption of antidotes the poison is not so vicious, but with the consumption of drugs, but still worrying.

' you haven't come back yet ?' ask Aum behind the dark blue mosquito net that covers the area of her bed.

Rama soon awoke from his momentary daydream and turned to the patient whose silhouette was faintly visible from outside the mosquito net.

' Your condition was a little alarming earlier ' replied Rama clearly.

' I feel better now ' Aum replied.

Rama tried to guess how the look of the princess's face was behind the mosquito net.

' You have tried to save me, thank you ' said Aum sincerely.

' I've said it wasn't we're not other princesses, we're comrades in arms said Rama with great emphasis.

Aum chuckled occasionally in the interspersed with a stifled coughing sound.

' I am grateful my friend is a god healer replied Aum.

' I do not reject your praise 'Rama with a face full of laughter agree with the words of Aum.

the sound of laughter was heard outside the room where Aum's first brother, Adhi was standing in the middle of the courtyard. His sister forbade all room visits, after the quarrel at that time and the boos of the entire family Aum chose to lock himself.Her sick news was not realized if the occupants of the house if the healer Rama did not visit. from the words of the servant who took care of his sick sister is quite severe, but whether it was Graha or the healer Rama none of them opened their mouths.

this has been the 3rd time today he was refused to visit his sister's room.The whole family is waiting for news from him.

Adhi held back the annoyance, her only sister was too spoiled by the family so her attitude became like this.

' tell Aum to let me in! otherwise I'll drag him from the inside! ' adhi's upset voice reached Aum's ears who had regained consciousness.

' sorry Ndoro, the Princess only regained consciousness after these few days so I prepared the princess to meet with the whole family in the Hall.

without waiting for an answer from Adhi the servant had entered Aum's room, leaving Adhi who had just received news of his sister's condition for more than a week.

he did not wake up for 1 week and the whole family did not know.he clenched his hands in annoyance, since when did his sister become so far away from him. why the distance that once did not exist now seems to spread even further.

...****************...

after Tabib Rama resigned himself Aum told his servant to apply his makeup so as not to look pale.

' give me my lip-splitting, I don't want to be pitied' said Aum resentfully.I don't know why this situation made her feel fed up with herself.

he walked on the house papah to arrive at the family hall. Sweat flowed all over the body of the aum, the distance from his room to the hall was not so far away but with his current condition Aum could not cuss.

upon entering the room all eyes looked at her, especially her birth mother who could not let go of her gaze of an instant.

' what are you doing right now ?' bhandoro's voice blurted loudly.

Aum was jolted if he was not helped Graha stand he must have fallen down.

' i will bear it all myself, Father and family will not be involved ' replied Aum.

' how can that be an answer, you never think of your own family in the least ' cried Bhandoro.

Aum closed his eyes for a moment, a sudden pain ran through his spine.

' I will stand alone with the title I got ' said Aum.

' so that the family will not get any impact ' Aum explained again, but the face of all people seemed to describe his disbelief in Aum.

' i will move into my own house, so the reason as part of the Bhandoro family will not exist. This family's good name will not be tarnished anymore ' said Aum, His father looked at his daughter with a giddy.

' is it that hard to tell the truth to your own family ? ' said Bhandoro with a weakened voice.

' so dad doesn't trust me too in the end ' said Aum lirih although Bhandoro also heard it.

the father's heart slipped listening to the sad voice of his little daughter, but this was not about Aum alone but the good name of the whole family.

' my daughter I know is capable of doing that ' Bhandoro said.

Graha almost spoke in case her daughter master did not answer immediately.

' meaning I'm no longer your daughter commander-in-chief, not part of this family anymore '

' i'm not that cool, ' said Aum a little disappointed.

He resigned immediately without waiting for permission, he just turned away from his family who would hate girls do not know themselves like him.

' Let's go to Princess Seroja's house Aum told Graha.
