GIRL IN RED
CHAPTERS 163. WHY ARE THE EMIRS JEALOUS?
Agha was at a loss for words. He deliberately flattered his brother-in-law to get the Emir's attention. But it seems that his praise did not work.
“Emir, you've worked hard catching fish. This is the first satay I prepared, this is for you. Try it and tell me how it feels.” said Arimbi handed me a small plate of satay.
The Emir glanced at the skewer in front of him. The fish in this river is not too big so Arimbi can only make it into satay. The satenya looked perfectly baked and the smell was also very good. But it feels like you have to try first to find out. The Emir reached out to take one skewer.
He looked at Arimbi's expectant gaze then he tried it. It tasted really good, so he took the next satay. Unknowingly he enjoyed his wife's fish satay which did taste very good but he wanted to eat all the fish satay.
“Emir how does it feel?” asked Arimbi curious to know her husband's opinion.
“Custom only! Edible.” he replied calmly. “Because you are quite picky, you do not eat this. What do you want to eat? Elisha had already brought so many groceries from the main house. So you have to cook it yourself.”
“Emir, are you trying to tell us that all grilled fish and fish satay are for you alone? It smells so good, so how could only you eat it? You are so evil Emir! You make Miss Arimbi sad.” said Agha who has swallowed his saliva to see the appetizing grilled fish.
“Young Master Agha, I will grill the fish you caught as well.” Arimbi said smilingly.
Suddenly the Emir immediately stopped his eating and raised his head to look at Arimbi with a dark look in his eyes. In a low voice he said, “He's a world-class chef! So you can't show off your cooking skills in front of him.”
“Do you think the fish I caught were not enough? So you don't have much fish to roast? Arimbi, I know you're a diner but you can't eat much fish.”
Meanwhile Arimbi blinked his eyes while thinking, ‘Why does the Emir look jealous? She doesn't want me to bake the fish her sister caught? And his sister also can not taste my baked fish?’
“Yes, my sister's right Miss Arimbi. I'll do it myself. You just focus on roasting the fish captured by Emir.” reply Agha who understands that her brother is jealous.
So he prefers to express his opinion in order to save himself.
Agha was quite worried that if he spoke for too long, the Emir would immediately put the fish he had just caught into his mouth as punishment.
Moreover, it seems that the Emir is not happy if Agha talks to Arimbi, he immediately feels if the attitude shown by his brother is like a person who is in love, overprotective.
“Good Emir. Uh, there's a fish on your fishing line! Fast!” the cry pointed towards the Emir's fishing line.
The Emir immediately pushed the half-eaten skewer into Arimbi's hand and pulled the fishing line up. It's true, there are quite large fish in the fishing line. This is the biggest fish he got today.
Two minutes later, the Emir remembered that he had not finished his fish satay yet, when he turned to look at his wife but he saw her slapping his lips and there was a dissatisfied expression on his face. At that moment the Emir pursed his lips and quietly said to himself, ‘He is very greedy! My used fish satay was also cured!’
The Emir could not help but smile on his face as he chuckled at the adorable manner of his wife. While Arimbi who turned towards her husband was confused when he saw her handsome husband was smiling secretly. Then Arimbi looked down and saw the skewer in his hand.
Finally he realized, that the skewer had no meat anymore. Her pretty face flushed red and she turned to the Emir shyly, “I thought you didn't want it anymore and I didn't want to waste food so I spent it. It is not good to waste food. Dear emir, don't be angry huh?”
The Emir clenched his right hand and drew it closer to his cheek then pressed it to hold back the laughter. “It's okay because you've eaten it then I'll keep fishing for you. You can bake it yourself and I make sure you will be full and sleep well later tonight.”
“Good. Thank you, you are indeed the best husband.” said Arimbi beaming. The Emir is not enjoying good grilled fish but he cares a lot for his wife and he will do all that for his wife, so he is quite happy. Moreover, seeing the adorable behavior of his wife, he would happily continue fishing for the wife who was eager to eat it.
“Emir, do you like roasted chicken wings? I'll prepare for you.”
Elisha had brought a lot of food. The Emir can eat whatever he wants and Arimbi is ready to cook for him. As soon as Elisha saw Arimbi walking towards him quickly he handed over a plate full of sheep satay to Arimbi.
“Arimbi, let's try this. I prepared this donba satay.” he said smiling happily.
Arimbi took one skewer and ate it, “Wow! Elisha you have great cooking skills!.
“In leisure we usually gather and enjoy barbeque.” replied Elisha smiling.
“You guys really enjoy baking too huh?”
“We are also just ordinary humans. Do you think we are saints? In fact, I was the only one raised in such a luxurious environment since I was young because my grandmother told me that I was a girl so I had to be raised in luxury. But my brothers had to undergo various challenges as they grew up.”
Then Elisha leaned closer to Arimbi and whispered, “Emir is the best among them. He is talented in many ways but he hides his talent. He is great in art, poetry, riding, ball games and martial arts. She is also good at cooking. But since he took over the family business, he never again set foot into the kitchen.”
Arimbi could not believe his hearing. “Is it true that the Emir is so talented?”
“It is not easy to be the successor of the Serkan family. Not only is he good at business, but he also has to learn a lot of skills. My grandfather once said when he was alive that one must have the skills to survive.”
“And must also have an unshakable spirit so that someone can rise quickly despite the failures he faces. That's why my brothers have had to undergo all kinds of training since they were children. Grandfather once said that he did not expect them to expand the Serkan family business but they must have the ability to maintain the business in all conditions.”, said Elisha explained.
