My Arogant Wife
16. Protecting Sammy

Sammy suddenly hugged his wife's possessive waist. She wanted to show the man in front of her that Rae already had a husband.

"We met by accident and I fell in love with her at first sight" she said. Successfully made Rae dumbfounded. "Well, baby?" moreover, this time he even looked at Rae in such a close distance.

"I-iya's right, we didn't accidentally meet." Rae smiled stiffly.

"Thank God you really love each other. I don't have to worry about you anymore." The god smiled sincerely even though he was a little disappointed.

They also had lunch together. Rae sat next to her husband and the God chose to sit on the chair that was in front of them. Rae occasionally chatted and threw jokes at the Gods.

"Sister, let's eat a lot. This is not God's favorite food." Rae put some side dishes on the God's plate.

"Yes, son, you never wavered. Think of it as your own home," continued Sora.

"Thank you Rae, thank you Auntie. I'm so glad you guys still think of me as you used to even though we're no longer neighbors."

"What are you talking about, you already consider Auntie like her own son. Your mother and father are like our brothers. Is that Pah?"

"True son, don't be shy. You used to eat my wife's cooking a lot" William said.

"That's because Auntie's cooking is so good. My mother's cooking just lost," said Dewa.

"Hahaha you could have. Your mother would be sad if you said that in front of her." Sora.

"No aunt, my mother also acknowledged the ease of Aunt's cooking." They laughed too, the atmosphere of the afternoon was so fluid. Although there is one person who is not comfortable with his presence there.

Sammy has been quiet ever since, feeling alien to his wife's family. Maybe he had gone overboard if he considered his marriage to his own boss once in a lifetime. He felt very different from them.

"Darling, get your husband the side dish again" Sora ordered his daughter.

"Yes mah," Rae also took the same side dish as he gave to the God earlier. She put it on her husband's plate.

"Thank you. You should eat a lot too. Don't just meat, you have to eat vegetables too." Sammy brought vegetables for his wife.

"Ah Sorry, Rae doesn't like chives." The words of the Gods made the atmosphere awkward. Especially for Sammy, he felt useless and knew nothing about his wife. He even took food that the woman did not like.

Sora understands her daughter-in-law. As a parent, he should be wise. "It's okay, son, you'll slowly find out. Rae is indeed too picky food," said Sora.

Sammy immediately took the vegetable back from Rae's plate. "I'm sorry I didn't know you didn't like this."

"Wait on! Let it stay there. I'm gonna eat it. Thank you for reminding me to eat healthy. The doctor always told me that I should eat a lot of vegetables. If you don't remind me I must have forgotten." Rae also eats vegetables that she does not like by force. He did not want the Gods to suspect his relationship with the husband.

"Waahh this is a miracle, only this time there are people who managed to persuade Rae to eat vegetables. Even mamah and papah just tired of persuading him. Mamah did not misjudge, you are indeed the right husband for my daughter." Sora flatters Sammy.

Sammy smiled wryly, she thanked her in-laws who had flattered her but she was more uncomfortable if for example Rae was forced to eat the food to cover the state of their relationship in front of others.

"Is it really okay to eat it?" ask the God who suspects Rae's gurgle. The woman had to swallow the food.

"Yes, I'm fine. It doesn't feel as bad as I imagined." Rae chews back. Yes, at first he was forced but over time his tongue was used to eating the vegetables. If he used to be nauseous, now he is not.

"Where do you live? Will the return of the Lord be long this time?" ask Rae.

"In the apartment, I'll probably be back soon after my business is done. I won't be calm leaving my mother for too long."

"Is there a problem? Can I help you?"

"Why? Do you want me to leave again soon?" The god smiled.

"Ah no, I'm just glad your Lord is back. I just want to help and show my Lord that I can be relied upon as well."

"I see, Rae's an adult now." The god gently rubbed Rae's head. "If I need help, I'll call you. I'll go first." God got into his car.

"Be careful, brother." Rae waved her hand.

The god looked at Rae from the rearview mirror. The girl he thought was a little girl was already very mature and beautiful now. It was his fault that he believed too much that the girl would be waiting for him. But he also could not regret anything. She also couldn't do much when she needed it.

"I don't expect you to be happy with your partner."

...

Malamannya. Sora and her husband talked about Asha's grandmother. They suggested what Rae had said. Sammy finally agreed. He was not at all good at rejecting their good intentions. She also hopes that her grandmother will recover soon.

Tonight. After dinner Sammy decided to go home. Rae also joined, even though Sammy had banned him.

"Thank you" said Sammy suddenly as they were on their way home.

Rae. "For?" tanyakanya.

"For everything, you, mom and dad are so good to me and grandma. I will definitely repay your kindness for the rest of my life."

Rae thought, what does it mean for a lifetime. He wants to run the marriage forever.

"Rae ..." call Sammy.

"Ah yes ... What is it?"

"Why are you daydreaming. I'm sorry I didn't know you didn't like vegetables. The next time you don't have to do that, it's like eating food you don't like to protect me. I'll learn what you like and don't like about Vera's assistant."

"It's okay, I don't like it but it doesn't feel bad. I can still swallow it" Rae said. He's not lying.

"Oh yeah, can I ask you something? Are you and that man so close? It looks like she likes you, I can see from her look at you."

"Who? What do you mean brother God. He and I are like brothers and sisters. We used to be very close because our house was next door. At school together, he always protected me and taught me. She's also the one who's always defending me when Papah keeps forcing me to learn." Remembering the old days. "You can't just guess where God's feet might like me." Rae laughs.

From what Sammy saw it seemed like Rae did not realize the feelings of the man was not just a brother and sister but liked like men and women. Either Rae is unaware because she is comfortable with their relationship or because Rae does not expect anything more from their relationship.

Whatever it was, I don't know why Sammy was relieved.
