The Lord's Concubine

The Lord's Concubine
Special Fried Rice Ala Farra


Early in the morning Farra awoke from her sleep. He smiled as he looked at Aksa's face that was still soundly asleep beside him.


"Thank you, God. Because it's given me this chance once again. Where my brother and I can come back together."


Farra put a warm kiss on Aksa's forehead and soon got out of bed. Farra was used to waking up early, even before she became the Wife under the guise of Servant in the Lord King's mansion.


After performing the ritual of bathing, dressing and tidying her hair, Farra rushed towards the kitchen. Where he would cook for the first time in the place, although Farra was confused because he had never touched the place before.


Zian who was cool asleep in the living room chair, woke up because of the fragrant aroma that poured from his kitchen and made his stomach hungry.


"Hmm, what's this smell? It smells so good, it makes me hungry" Zian murmured as he rubbed his still-heavy eyes.


Zian watched the hanging wall clock while linking his eyebrows together. "Farre? Very strict with him" continued Zian.


The man got up from the chair and stepped into the kitchen where the fragrance came from. The smell that made him hungry this early.


Zian's presence in that place made Farra scream in surprise. He did not realize that the man was already behind while watching himself cooking.


"Good God, Brother Zian! I was shocked, fortunately I didn't hang," Farra said with round eyes looking at the man.


"Sorry, surprise you. I was wondering what exactly you were cooking, so I woke up to the smell of the fragrance wrapped around my stomach this early in the morning" said Zian smiling as he glanced at the fried rice pan Farra had just made.


"Oh, I'm sorry, Brother Zian! I promise not to repeat it again" said Farra with a sad face. He felt guilty for waking Zian from his deep sleep.


"Eh, that's not what I mean, Farra. The smell of your cooking is really appetizing until I who sleep soundly wake up because the aroma is really hmmm .. I can not stand it anymore, I should wash my face first let me taste your cooking," sahut Zian who rushed into the bathroom to wash his face.


It turns out that not only Zian, Aksa also woke up from her sleep and then followed Farra in the kitchen while rubbing her eyes.


"Acts?" Farra approached Aksa then rubbed her little sister's face gently.


"Sister, Aksa is hungry" said Aksa, with his eyes still closed.


There was laughter from Zian in the bathroom. "What did I say, Farra! Even Aksa also woke up because he smelled the aroma of your cooking," Zian said with half a shout.


Farra smiled at Zian. He led Aksa to the bathroom and helped the little guy wash his face.


After washing their faces, the two men of different generations immediately approached the dining table and sat there. Zian and Aksa patiently waited for Farra to prepare the special fried rice for them.


"Miss Farra's fried rice has arrived, taa daa!" zian shouted with a big smile when Farra arrived with two dishes containing fried rice made.


"Is Sir Ivan awake?" farra asked Zian, whose mouth was full of fried rice made by Farra.


"Let's see, who knows he's awake" Zian said with his mouth full.


"Om Zian, said Master Teacher should not say if his mouth is full," he said while imitating the style of his Teacher's speech while at school.


Zian smiled wryly as he gently rubbed the top of Aksa's head. "Ready, little Boss!"


Farra stepped into the front room and Ivan was awake. It was just that he was embarrassed if he had to follow them to the kitchen without being invited.


"Mr Ivan, let's have breakfast together. I deliberately made a lot to be enough for all of us" Farra asked.


Ivan felt what Zian and Aksa felt. However, he purposely held it.


"Well if forced," said Ivan smiling as he scratched his nape.


Upon arrival in the kitchen, Ivan washed his face and sat down in one of the empty chairs. Farra handed Ivan a plate of fried rice and the man devoured it.


Farra smiled as she watched the three men who were enjoying their homemade fried rice voraciously. If here they all scramble to enjoy the cuisine, in the King's residence he was even forbidden to touch the food there for fear that Farra put poison and so on.


"I'm so happy that you're willing to eat my cooking this alakadarnya," said Farra with teary eyes.


"Of course, Farra. Even I would be very grateful if every day I could enjoy various dishes from your hands" said Zian.


Ivan smiled wryly as he looked at Zian's expression. Ivan feels suspicious that the man is starting to like Farra.


Meanwhile, at the King's residence.


"Servant! Anybody, make me a cake like Farra's! I want to eat it!" the King who deliberately came down from his room in a row.


The servants looked at each other, they were confused as to how and what Farra made the cake. Some have seen its shape and texture, but he does not see how Farra made it.


Vania, who was standing on the second floor, furrowed her brows after hearing the King's word to her servants.


"What the king said to him to make a cake like Farra's cake! Did he ever eat cake made by the village girl?!" upset Vania with both hands crossed on the chest.
