GIRL IN RED
CHAPTERS 193. ANGER REQUIRES ENERGY
The Emir pulled Arimbi into his arms after expelling the maid. He hugged Arimbi tightly while patting his back calmed him down.
While Arimbi buried her face into her husband's chest with a smile that can not be seen by anyone. He soaked the Emir's shirt with his tears. “Darling.....my feet hurt. Hiks hiks.
“Sstttt....already already.....don't cry anymore. You must be hungry, right?”
Arimbi immediately nodded his head, “Honey, I'm not too hungry. I had eaten a lot.” he said sobbing his face staring at the Emir with sadness.
“What? Did you eat a lot this afternoon? Arimbi Saraswaty's! Can you still eat after what happened?” the Emir raised his voice. He was annoyed to hear his wife eat a lot while he did not eat anything today. He even smelled alcohol from his wife's mouth.”How much did you drink earlier?”
“Darling, I know I was wrong. But you didn't give me a chance to explain earlier I wasn't thinking about that jerk at all. I was thinking about something else, after all I took back all my gifts and threw them away! Even the smallest thing, there is nothing left. While the valuables I have returned to my mother.”
“I know. Earlier mother told me about it.” said Emir slowly.
Arimbi let out a long sigh then said again, “Emir, I have no feelings for Reza anymore. Now in my heart there is only you my husband, I love you so much but you make me sad and cry. After you kicked me out of the car I called you and cried on the side of the road. I thought you would come back to pick me up but after waiting an hour, you actually left me there..hiks....hiks....”.
“My heart hurts so much, you have misunderstood me. How could my husband leave me alone on the side of the road like that? What if I get kidnapped and never see you again? Huaaa....huaaa...” her tears broke again like a child.
“I know you don't believe me but we are married and we must trust each other, respect and love so that our foundation is solid so that nothing can destroy us. I wasn't fixated on thinking about Reza, but I was thinking about how Amanda would react if she knew Reza was marrying Ruby. What will happen to them both? Will they secretly stay in touch behind? Or any other evil plans they're playing now?”
“Sayang...forgive me yes. I have no feelings for Reza anymore. And I'd like to be honest with you that I ate a lot and had a little beer. But I was angry and hurt, I lost my strength after crying for a long time. The emir! Anger also needs energy. After crying I have to eat a lot to have energy to walk home.”
‘What's he saying? Angry need to eat? His strength was exhausted from crying on the side of the road? Hmh! Could-be she ate as much and did not think of her husband starving.’ grumbled Emir inwardly.
“How much do you drink beer? I've already banned you from drinking, right?”
“I only drink 4 cans of beer. Joana tried to stop me but I scolded her because I was sad, I needed an outlet.”
“Sayang.” Arimbi rested his head on the Emir's chest again before he said softly again. “Honey, let's fix it okay? Ever since we got married I really wanted to be with you my whole life. When I received our marriage license, I gave up on Reza. You said that I was restless and I still couldn't think of Reza, but that wasn't true. I'm thinking of something.”
The Emir frowned with a stiffened face. “Because we have broken up then we do not have to have any relationship in the future even as friends do not. I've opened a new leaf with you. I will never be involved with him or any other man in the future. I know this all of a sudden and I shamelessly ask you to marry me.”
“The reason why I married you, I will explain it to you later. For now can you have dinner with me? Last time Rino told me that you missed lunch today.” while saying that, Arimbi glanced silently at the Emir who was still reluctant to look at him and wait for his husband's response.
After being silent for quite a while, the Emir looked at her and when the couple looked at each other he asked in a cold tone, “How many bottles of alcohol did you drink this afternoon?” asked the Emir annoyed. He had warned Arimbi not to drink alcohol while he was outside the house and not with him. “You are like alcohol every time you open your mouth.”
“Really?” Arimbi snorted and sniffed his breath before continuing, “I can't smell the alcohol anymore because it's been a long time. Honey, your sense of smell is amazing can still smell alcohol.”
“How much do you drink?” ask the Emir again.
Now, Arimbi was afraid to look into the Emir's eyes and began to take his eyes off of him. However, the Emir coldly cupped his chin and attached his head so that Arimbi could not avoid his eyes anymore.
He asked again in a cold tone. “My jawab! How much did you drink? Don't make me ask you a fourth time. Answer honestly!”
“Not much just four bottles and it's just beer. Since I have a pretty good alcohol tolerance level, four bottles of beer means nothing to me.” replied Arimbi.
“Four bottles? You said four cans! Arimbi...it looks like you should be punished for lying.” said the Emir looking at him. “Why do you drink that much?”
Arimbi put on a sad face and was about to cry again, “Do you think you are the only one with a temperament? Do you think you're the only one who feels hurt? I was devastated when you told me to get out of the car. I was sad when my husband left me alone and I kept calling you from the back of the car. I am sad because you ignored me. Hiks hiks hiks...” the tears are back dripping.
“You are so cruel to just leave. I just cried and cried on that side of the road hoping you'd come back. But you never came back so I had to call Joana to pick me up. I was so scared to be in that place. When she brought me lunch I ordered a beer because I was so sad. Joana keeps asking me to stop because she's afraid you'll be mad at her later. That's why I only drink 4 bottles.”
The Emir now felt like his chest was being pierced when Arimbi cried again. Staring at her, all she saw was sadness as she continued to explain everything.
The Emir finally gave up and put his arm on Arimbi's boat as the woman let out a long sigh. “I also did not eat anything today while you can still eat and drink beer.”
“Emir, you should always remember not to miss a meal. Even though you are in a mara or whatever it is because your body also needs energy to be angry. If you do not eat, you can faint because you do not have the energy to get angry.” said Arimbi again.
