First Woman President
Episode 41

Sam was already about to pick up one of the menus in front of him, but Ken immediately shouted at him again, "Saam".

***

The atmosphere became tense again as Ken again shouted at Sam. Ana glanced at Ken who was now sitting next to her. Then he looked at Sam who was sitting opposite him.

"You! I have to be the first to taste the food" said Ken flat.

Ana pokes her lips to hold back the laughter, while Sam chimes in annoyance at her brother.

"Yes, yes, eat your sister. You're the first, please!", said Sam lazily. He propped his chin and turned his face the other way while grumbling. "You eat just so bothered. Did he not know how busy I was, to the point of starving like this", grumbled Sam in his lowest tone.

"If you're so busy, you can eat out" said Ken, who still caught Sam's grunt.

"No, brother, I'm not busy. Take it easy, I still have plenty of time to finish this delicious meal", Sam put on his fake smile as he waved his hand at Ken.

Ken enjoyed every dish Ana made. His eyes closed trying to feel every pleasure that Ana gave to her cooking. "Lumayan" said Ken as he continued to devour his food.

Feeling it was now his turn, Sam took some dishes for himself. Sam devoured it so greedily.

"What a good thing, brother. It's very tasty. Sister-in-law's cooking is equivalent to your chef's head, you know!", said Sam as he chewed his food.

"Thank you", Ana smiled at Sam. He is happy if there are others who want to enjoy the results of his cooking. To be honest Ana did not care how others judged, the most important thing was that she had done it with pleasure.

"You are indeed fit to be my sister-in-law, brother", Sam returned Ana's smile.

"Yes? Sister-in-law?", Ana was surprised why again Sam always called her sister-in-law.

"You are my future wife" Ken replied as if he knew Ana's thoughts.

"What do you mean Ken?", Ana stops eating and looks at Ken.

"Don't I tell you, you're the only one who deserves to marry me. And I proposed to you too", explained Ken casually.

"But I'm not ready to marry Ken" Ana said seriously.

"I'll give you time to be ready to marry me. But that doesn't mean I let you go. You are still mine. You are my woman. Understand?!", said Ken who now grasps Ana's fingers and kisses her. Ana nodded in agreement with Ken. They both looked at each other and smiled.

"Hey, just ignore this human being. Let's just say I don't exist. Please enjoy your wonderful time!", said Sam with his sour face.

Ken and Ana chuckle at Sam's words. "So soon you will find your woman. Don't just play with you!", said Ken.

"Let's see her brother-in-law! How arrogant he is after having you. Before I met you, my brother was in charge of my personal life. Hah, how lucky he is to meet you. You know, brother, I never liked a woman much less touched her. You were the first woman for her. So you can imagine later how..wait, wait", Sam stopped his reflection when his eyes caught a reddish mark on Ana's neck.

Ana looked at Sam who was looking at her with a probing look. Ana furrowed her brows deeply.

"Did any insects bite you? Is the insect so large that it can leave such a large footprint? Does the bug like you so much, that it marks its ownership of you?!", Sam leaned in on Ana with a grin.

"Uhuk, uhuk, uhuk", Ana immediately coughed at Sam's question.

Ken thrust a glass of water to let Ana drink it. "Thank you" Ana told him.

"Is it too visible, Ken", she whispered to Ken.

"Ken, you!", said Ana, tightening her jaw.

"Do you want any more?", asked Ken who deliberately teased Ana.

"Ken!", Ana pinched her waist in an agony. He was inexhaustible, while he was holding back his embarrassment, Ken even teased him again. Ana doesn't care about Ken complaining about pain.

Sam looked at the two couples before him with a peaceful smile. Finally, his beloved brother could change. He who used to be very cold towards women, now even himself wants to complain of pain like this. In the past, anyone who dared to touch or even approach it had scared and undo his intentions.

"Oh yes, sister, how about dinner in the big house. Did your sister-in-law know that?", Sam's question stopped Ana and Ken's activities.

"Ah, I almost forgot!", said Ken then staring fixedly at Ana.

"This week my parents invited us to dinner together. They ordered us to bring in a son-in-law for them. Or if not, my parents will bring it for us" Ken told Ana. Ana doesn't respond, she's still digesting Ken's words.

"So will you come with me for dinner with my parents?", asked Ken a little hesitantly.

"So you did all this, declaring love to me and so on just so you could take me there so you wouldn't be betrothed to another woman?", Ana drew her own conclusions while watching Ken's expression.

Now Ken is sitting facing Ana. She clasped Ana's hands and rubbed them gently. Ken looked into Ana's eyes deeply.

"Of course not! They told me after I was sure I was in love with you. It just so happens that the situation is very fitting if I take you as my future wife. Since I'm only going to marry you, I told you so", Ken explained calmly.

Ana looked at Ken inside. He was trying to find a trace of lies in his eyes. But in fact Ken is honest, there's no trace of a lie or anything there. Ken's tone of speech sounded sincere. Ana tries to convince herself to trust Ken at this time.

"Alright for now I trust you!", Ana said flatly. He tried to let go of Ken's hand on him.

"No, you don't trust me" Ken held Ana's hand.

"What's the evidence?", asked Ana defiantly.

"What do you want? I'll give it all to you. Witnesses, office cctv footage and my home, is that enough?!", Ken said solemnly, insisting that Ana was serious about loving Ana even if her parents did not invite her once.

"Yes, yeah, all right. I trust you", Ana finally let out her smile.

"Can you stop this romantic drama. Don't you feel sorry for me?!", said Sam, chewing his food.

"Let's continue lunch" Ana told Ken, smiling sweetly.

The three of them continued eating them until without feeling the food there was gone.

"Well, I'm so full!", said Sam, wiping his slightly swollen belly.

"God! Have you not eaten for 3 days?!", Ken told him.

"Why indeed?! Heh! In addition to Mother's cooking, sister-in-law's cooking is indeed the most delicious", Sam pointed his two thumbs at Ana.

Ken looked proudly at Ana who was smiling towards Sam. He was not wrong to fall in love with the woman sitting next to him. So much talent he's got, even Ken doesn't know it all. Ken gently rubbed Ana's head, and Ana looked at him with a smile. They transfer their feelings through the smiles they throw at each other.

"Oh yes brother, if you don't hear wrong Mother says that Joice will come" said Sam without guilt.

"Joice?", asked Ana slowly with great emphasis while looking at Ken with a probing gaze.
