Fake Princess
The CLXXXVIII Chapter
"If I marry Adinata, I will be treated the same... It's like, it's my own marriage to her" said Julissa, looking away at her smilingly looking at her own fingers.
"You just have to wait another two years" I smiled at him.
"Say Sachi, do you want me first or are you the one who got married between the two of us first?" he looked back at me.
"meaning?"
"We are engaged at the same time, so we are likely to get married at the same time as well. So, do you want to go first or me?"
"Okay, but before that... Are you all right?" my words turned my attention to Wasfiah who was sitting down down beside me.
"I... Just very nervous. I didn't expect to get married so soon" she said very slowly.
"Good man, as his friend... I want you to see not only its shortcomings but its advantages," I said chiming in his words, I stared at him who also stared back at me.
Looking at my eyes at the slightly open door, I saw three men enter carrying a large wooden box in their arms...
The three men walked up to the wall not too far from the door, alternately placing the wooden boxes there. The three of them looked at us as the two of them walked closer...
"What are you doing? And what are you wearing?"
"I don't know, I'm just following orders. He said, The king asked them to treat us as brides-to-be" I stared back at him who had stood before me.
"You're wearing a girlfriend, from what I heard. If the color is very red means that his partner loves him very much," said Adinata, I turned my gaze to him who had held his arm Julissa.
"really? I'm sure the result will be very red to you" he said, who also lifted and looked at my palm.
"What did you bring?" I said, leaving my eyes on the wooden box he had brought before.
"The clothes and the jewelry for you to wear, Dad asked us to take him," Adinata said.
"Are we wearing it too?" julissa said, I looked at Adinata who nodded back.
"The two of you will accompany the bride, so you will also wear her clothes" Adinata said back to her.
"Zeki," I said, turning my eyes to him.
"What's wrong?" she looked back at me.
"Help me, my nose is so itchy, I can't scratch it" I said as I held my palms up in front of him, repeatedly knocking my feet on the floor.
"Let me see" he crouched down in front of me as he pointed his index finger at me slowly scratching my nose.
"Is it still itchy?" she said, I answered her words with a ring from me.
"What are you doing here, Prince Adinata," came the voice of the woman, I turned my gaze towards Ajeng and the other woman who stepped her foot closer.
"That's not what I mean, men are banned for too long here" he said, cutting out Adinata's words.
"It's not just the bride-to-be who can't meet, she and I are two years away from getting married" Zeki said.
"But still, can you all get out?"
"Do you want to kick us out Auntie?"
"It's not like that, Your Majesty, it's just... We had to rub the scrub on their bodies. And that means..."
"I understand, hurry up Zeki. We still have a lot of work" said Adinata cut off his words, turned around as he stepped away.
"Call me if you need anything" he said, patting my head softly, turning my eyes to him who also walked along.
I stared at his back that had walked through the door, my eyes falling on the two women who had stood before me. One of them was standing next to me while the other was sitting at my feet...
The lift of my right arm by the woman earlier, I felt a little cold as the tanned lump touched my arm. The smell of the spices gushing as the sticky thing traced my arm completely filled my nose...
I turned my gaze to the other woman who had revealed the little piece of cloth that covered my feet... Back the object was stretched flat to meet my feet that he held...
"If everything is done, you will do the betangas to make your beauty aura more radiant..."
"Be-tangas?" my words cut off his words.
"You will sit on the chair under which the spice stew is placed. Your entire body will be wrapped using a mat, once done doing so... The smell of your body will disappear and you will look more beautiful," Ajeng said looking back at me.
"This was really my first experience..."
"really? But before that, we will teach you the dance that you will perform during the wedding," he said cutting my words.
"Dance?" said Julissa, I looked at Ajeng who had turned his eyes to Julissa.
"At the time of the wedding the bride-to-be will dance in front of her future husband with the guests, and you two will help accompany her from the side" Ajeng told us.
"But, i... A long time never danced," I told her unknowingly.
"Therefore, we shall teach you all..."
"Actually, some noble children were chosen to do so... But the king wants you both to do it. Because he said, I want my three Daughters to do it immediately," Ajeng continued.
"Do you think we can do it?" said Julissa, I turned my eyes to her who was down.
"You have to be able to do it, whatever happens, you have to be able to do it" he said again, shifting his views earlier to meet us one by one.
