Cohabitation With My Ex-Husband

Michael then immediately took out another box that was still in the plastic bag, then handed it to the Dark Brown haired.

"This is for you… What is your name?" Michael asked, trying to sound as friendly as possible. He even let out a smile. He hoped his friendly nature would make the puppies look wary of him becoming tame.

"I'm too old to play with toy cars, old man!"

Michael moistened his lips when he heard that sharp tone of voice. He knew that this wouldn't be easy at all, but couldn't that brat not bark at him and make him awkward?

Well… he had expected this, so he wasn't really that surprised.

"Is that true?" Michael asked, sounding feigned surprise. "But this is not just an ordinary toy car."

Michael then pulled his hand that was still holding his gift box and walked over to Gabriel who was playing with his car. Without hesitation, Michael immediately sat down on the floor next to the boy.

"Did you like the present?" Michael asked, trying to make small talk.

Gabriel nodded and continued to back and forth his car.

"Gabriel, actually… this car is special and you don't have to play it like that," Michael said trying to get the boy's attention. Every now and then his eyes glanced at the other puppy to see if he was staring at them too.

"Is that true?" asked Gabriel in bewilderment.

Michael nodded. "Do you want uncle to show it?"

Gabriel was silent for a moment, then nodded his head and handed the car to Michael.

Michael subconsciously smiled at the boy's behavior. It looks like he's starting to open up to him and that's a good sign.

"Actually… we need a remote control for this car. Looks like it's still in the box of the car. Can Gabriel get it for uncle?" asked Michael gently.

Gabriel nodded then immediately stood up and approached the car box that was near Sarah, he had indeed told his Mommy to open the present for him.

Not long after, Gabriel came back to Michael with his car box.

Michael then immediately took the remote, then took out the battery from his pants pocket which he had prepared. He then slowly explained the function of the battery, and how to insert it.

"Would you like to try inserting this battery?" Michael asked softly looking at Gabriel who was seriously looking at him. "Try pressing this," Michael continued when he saw the boy's head nod.

Gabriel then pressed as Michael said, and an immediate click sounded, indicating that the battery was installed properly.

"Good job!" said Michael, smiling and then unconsciously stroking the boy's head.

Gabriel just smiled broadly at the compliment. His face looks happy.

Sarah looked at the supposedly father-son interaction with a strange feeling. Her chest felt warm, but on the other hand, she felt sad seeing it.

So far, Sarah has never bought an RC Cars for her sons because it is expensive. She could afford it and have bought it for them, but she thought that instead of buying expensive toys, which by the way had to buy two because she had twins, the money would be better spent on other things.

Sarah's gaze could not be separated from the interaction in front of her, she knew that Michael had always wanted to have children, and could also play well with children, but she did not expect Michael to be able to interact and at the same time teach him.

He is really good with children.

Michael could even give compliments and seem natural, which made Sarah feel even more weird about it.

"Now try to hold this, and move it," said Michael and then handed the remote control to Gabriel.

Gabriel took it and did as Michael said. The car, which had been silent, started to make a sound and moved forward.

"Oh!" Gabriel looked surprised, he then looked at Michael.

Michael nodded, as if telling him to keep playing it.

Gabriel then started running again until the car finally hit the wall.

"Oh no! An accident!" Gabriel said then went to get his car. His face looks happy to get his new car.

Michael looked at it with a proud look, it seemed his gift was liked by the man. He then glanced at Raphael, trying to see the puppy's reaction.

His expression looks like he's interested!

Michael smiled at that, he then walked up to Gabriel and showed him how to back off and turn the car around.

"If you press this, it will play music," Michael said and showed one of the buttons there.

He also just found out that this car has a music function.

Gabriel then pressed it and music started. A crisp laugh immediately escaped the boy's mouth.

Michael also smiled at the child's laughter, then his eyes turned to the Dark Brown who was still sitting in his place but the expression on his face looked very interested in his brother's toy.

"You want to play? This car can also be used remotely," said Michael then took the car box and showed it to him.

Raphael bit his lower lip when he heard Michael's words. He had to admit that the car the old man brought looked really cool. It can be run remotely!

But… he was planning to either ignore the old man or bully him! He wouldn't let himself be tempted by a car!

"Too bad no one wants to take this car. Looks like uncle will have to return it then," said Michael pretending to be talking to himself but deliberately making his voice heard by Raphael.

"You can give it to me, uncle," said Gabriel who could also hear it.

Michael was a little surprised to hear that the other child suddenly responded.

"Oh yeah! Does Gabriel want this car too?" asked Michael, turning to the boy.

"That is mine!" Raphael shouted suddenly then ran to his car box and tried to pick it up, but Michael held him back.

"You want this present? Then tell me first what your name is," Michael said with a satisfied smile when he saw the puppy finally starting to succumb.

"Raphael," replied Raphael who was still holding his gift box. "Now give me my present!" He continued in a commanding tone of voice.

Michael took a deep breath when he heard the boy's tone. He thought the kid would end up being a sweet kid like Gabriel, but it seemed like he was far from it.

Michael finally removed his hand from the box. "You want uncle's help to open the box?" asked Michael offering.

Raphael took the box and started to stand up, he seemed to have a little trouble holding the box.

"I can ask Mommy for help!" Raphael refused then walked over to his Mommy who was sitting in the living room and was watching them.

Michael just watched the boy leave with a sigh. It seemed that he would not easily get the boy to like him.

"Well… it's okay, you still have plenty of time, Michael," Michael thought, trying to cheer himself up.

"But I didn't think Sarah would give her two sons that name," Michael thought again when he learned the name of the Twins.

For some reason, their names are similar to his name.
