Naive or Stupid

Sekar forgot one thing when she asked Nyai Kasmirah for help. That Nyai Kasmirah is the manager of a brothel. And, of course, Sekar must help Nyai Kasmirah with something profitable. Nyai Kasmirah's request is the only one. Give her a lot of benefits.

It was too late for Sekar to escape, and the security at Nyai Kasmirah's place was very tight. She would be caught immediately if he tried to escape.

Sekar was in the biggest room. In those days, rooms with chairs and beds made of teak wood, as well as some silk fabrics for curtains, were very luxurious. Nyai Kasmirah asked Sekar to be there today. Welcoming future nobles Sekar's body trembled with fear.

Isn't this the same as when Sekar was about to be given to the bookies by his father? What a shame! It turned out that running away from Nyai Kasmirah was not the right choice.

Sekar saw Nyai Kasmirah opening the door together with two people. From his appearance, she looked like a wealthy noblewoman at that time. Sekar didn't really hear what they were talking about, because she preferred to look down rather than at them. Until finally, one of them entered. Approaching Sekar.

"Don't touch me!" Sekar stood up from his chair as soon as the nameless man arrived next to her. Sekar backed away slowly and away. She looked at the man's face carefully. "Don't come close!" Sekar forbids the man when she is seen walking towards him.

Umbara smirked. Sekar's face is very innocent. It was obvious that she had never been in a world like this. Umbara then smiled at Sekar. "So, what should I do if I can't touch you?" Umbara sat on a teak chair quietly. "I have paid three times as much to Nyai Kasmirah. So, what are you going to do to make up for that triple money? "

Umbara sees Sekar getting worried. She doesn't have an answer for Umbara, but Sekar still doesn't want Umbara to do anything to her. Moreover, when he had to ask Sekar to serve him, Sekar didn't want to.

"Up to you!" Sekar answered indifferently.

"I didn't ask you to pay three times as much for me either. Just ask Nyai Kasmirah for your money!"

Umbara stood up, then stepped closer to the woman. He could see that Sekar's eyes were scared, but she pretended to be brave against Umbara. "That's not the way to do business," he said.

Sekar gripped both hands on the sewek as Umbara continued to approach and Sekar had backed away until he was against the wall. "I don't care about how to do business," said Sekar.

Umbara raised an eyebrow. "Then why are you here?"

Sekar leaked the name of the man who is currently very close to her. "My goal here is not to serve customers to make love. Nyai Kasmirah ordered me unilaterally. Sekar gritted his teeth.

"I will become a concubine and serve the king. So don't try to touch me! " Sekar continues to try to prevent Umbara. At least for now, that's the reason Sekar can think of. In fact, Sekar also doesn't know what will happen if she becomes a concubine. A glimpse of the concubine's work was only obtained from listening to other people's stories.

Umbara laughed loudly. The innocent girl in front of him said something to the king, who was in disguise. However, Umbara likes Sekar's uniqueness. Apart from being beautiful and naive, Umbara liked Sekar's answer just now. You've never been in love? Then how will you serve the king? Umbara asked after stopping her laughter.

"That is none of your business!" replied Sekar curtly.

"Okay. I'll change my question. " Umbara drew closer to Sekar. Tidy a few strands of the woman's hair that are in front of her face. "Of the hundreds of women who will appear before the King, how can you be sure that the King will see you?" Umbara is intimidating.

What this man said was true, but Sekar didn't want to be influenced. She was determined not to serve this man, no matter what. "I will say that I am still a virgin in front of many people. And I will give it only to the King, not to anyone else. I'm sure the King will definitely see me. "

Umbara burst out laughing again. In his heart, he said that Sekar was a girl who was brave and firm enough not to serve Umbara to make love tonight. "Are you naive or stupid? Do you really think you're the only virgin girl who will be there? All the girls in this city want to give their bodies to the King, Mbak Ayu."

Sekar rejected Umbara's hand, which started to caress her cheek. Then he pushed the man's body with all his might. "I told you not to touch me!" Sekar shouted.

Umbara took a step back from her position. Seeing Sekar, who stepped away from him, "Okay. "Are you ready to face Nyai Kasmirah after this?" asked Umbara.

Sekar thought for a moment. It is true that the risk of expelling Umbara from there is dealing directly with Nyai Kasmirah. He can do anything to Sekar, maybe even more cruel than what his father did. But Sekar didn't want to think about it now. The important thing was that he had to get this man out of here. "I don't care. "Go away!" Sekar snapped at Umbara.

Umbara smirked. Then nodded. "Okay." I will ask Nyai Kasmirah for compensation for tonight, so be prepared. She will torture you because I will ask for ten times as much. "

Sekar's eyes widened. What did he just say? Tenfold? Not. Now that Sekar has no money at all, how is she supposed to pay compensation for this man? Damn.

Umbara slowly stepped out, but Sekar stopped her by holding her hand. "Wait, aren't you a rich man? Why blackmail someone like me? " Sekar asked, scared.

Umbara let go of Sekar's hand, holding it. I'm a businessman, Mbak Ayu, so when I don't feel benefited, I will ask for compensation. "And you have to take the risk because you have harmed me," replied Umbara. Umbara stepped out of the room, leaving Sekar scared and confused. Umbara thought that woman definitely wouldn't be able to bear the risk of her actions tonight.

Krisna, who was waiting outside the room, was also surprised, because Umbara had left in a fairly short time. "Baginda, what happened?" asked Krishna.
