GIRL IN RED
CHAPTER 55. EXPENSIVE HAIRPIN
“Ah....kukira Emir will not like to eat my beef porridge! Aisss.....he even took a bowl of my porridge?” Arimbi sighed. Since the Emir had already taken his bowl of porridge, there was already no more food he could eat. Finally he decided to make fried noodles. After cooking, the Emir has returned home.
“Do you eat your food in the pavilion every day?” ask Arimbi.
“Something is wrong? Would you like to eat there now?” The emir asked.
“Of course not. I dare not!” reply Arimbi.
“I think you look pretty brave. You even managed to make my mother rise in blood after you replied to her words! Mom complained to me when I came home earlier.” said the Emir but he didn't sound like he was angry when he said that.
“Your mother...she tried to complicate my life. Your mother ruled me like an unpaid servant! Doesn't that mean he won't let me go? If I was afraid when he scolded me, do you think I would ever have a quiet life again here?” arimbi defended himself.
The Emir's eyes focused on Arimbi. His wife had given him her hairpin which made Arimbi's hair unravel. The Emir could no longer bear to see her to come closer and tie the woman's hair. “You should take a short walk after dinner to help your digestion.” said the Emir changed the subject.
Arimbi understood the meaning of the Emir's words and walked to the back of the wheelchair and pushed him. ”Because you want to take a walk, you should get out of your wheelchair and walk on your own. That way you will train your muscles and prevent digestive problems.”
“Did you mock me because I was paralyzed?” The Emir looks unhappy.
“Emir! Why are you always prejudicing people? I said so for your good! You have to train your muscles a little bit, it's not good for you to always sit in a wheelchair like this. Often do physical therapy, so you will recover quickly.”
“You can never know what people really think!” emir ketus.
“You are very difficult for me to understand. When I try to understand you it feels impossible.” said Arimbi again.
Emir's face turned grim, Arimbi was behind him and he could not see the look on the man's face, “Do you feel comfortable staying in the wheelchair? You don't want to restore your body as it was? With your handsome face, when you can walk again then those women will bow to you again Emir!”
“Lantas what if I could walk again? When I'm disabled, no woman will marry me, except a foolish woman like you who keeps on marrying me!” the Emir of sarcas.
Arimbi stopped pushing the wheelchair and moved closer his face looking at him from the side, the Emir could smell the fragrance emerging from Arimbi's body. “Emir, are you really impotent?” ask Arimbi lirih.
“What's up? You regret your decision now?”
“What to regret? I've told you I don't care what you look like and I'll never regret it.”
“Then why did you slit your wrist that time?”
“It....yes, after I tried to challenge death, I realized that you are a very kind and noble-hearted man. At least you're not a hypocrite wearing a mask in front of me. So I changed my decision!” reply Arimbi.
Arimbi was a little scared because this clever sneaky guy almost made him reveal his secret again. The Emir snorted at Arimbi's words. The woman continued to deny the man as if nothing had happened. But, he was starting to think if the Emir was really impotent? So he also did not have to worry anymore to tease her.
‘Hahahaha I found the weakness!’ whispers in the heart. As his mind floated thinking of ideas to prank the Emir, suddenly a hairpin appeared in front of him.
Arimbi was at a loss for words and grumbled in his heart,’Is it hard to say good words huh? Tell me you want to give me a gift? What do you have to say I'm a ghost? It's so sharp his tongue! Huh.’
When Arimbi took the hairpin, he realized that the hairpin from the famous brand Chanel, must have been very expensive compared to the hairpin he gave to the Emir earlier.
“Thanks Emir.” he said smiling.
“This as a sign I appreciate you because you gave me a gift.”
“Hehe…..Emir, you are so sweet.” said Arimbi with a soft voice and then gave a kiss on the cheek of the man that made the Emir's heart feel happy.
...***********...
Reza drove his car towards the Kanchana residence, as he reached the gate of his house and honked. A few seconds later, a guard came out and opened the door for her. Reza parked his car right in front of the entrance and rushed down from the car and walked into the house.
He heard the voices of people playing cards. Surely his mother invited his friends again to play cards at his house. Slowly her eyes filled with excitement but as she approached her mother, Reza smiled as she leaned back to look at the card in her mother's hand.
“Mother, did today win a lot?”
“Mom can only Louis Vuitton bag!” answer Yessi. He looked up and looked at Reza. “Why did you come home fast? Is there no dinner tonight at the office?”
“I have an appointment to meet the client at nine. It is still afternoon so I decided to go home and see mom.” replied Reza.
“You are! Always say sweet.” said Yessi was happy.
“Mother!”
“Wait a minute. I'll talk to you after we finish playing cards.”
“Hehe...ya already I went to my room and took a shower first.”
Yessi muttered and Reza nodded at the women and headed to her room on the top floor.
“Mrs Kanchana! I heard Reza wants to marry the girl who just returned to the Rafaldi family huh?” ask the women after Reza's departure and they have not seen her around.
“Reza is too good! The woman wants to marry him and Reza does not want to hurt the woman's feelings.”
Yessi waited for her friends to finish their questions, “Arimbi is a good woman. Even though she wasn't raised in a rafaldi family, she was still a well-mannered woman and I agree that Reza married her.” said Yessi spoke praising Arimbi in front of her friends with a happy face as if she were a good mother.
‘However the woman is the biological daughter as well as the heir of the Rafaldi Family! The entire family fortune will fall to Arimbi! If Reza marries her then our family can control everything she has!’ whispered Yessi in his heart. ‘Moreover Arimbi loves Reza, if Reza marries her then she will become the owner of the company Rafaldi Group.’
