Cohabitation With My Ex-Husband

After leaving his father's room, Michael immediately headed to his car which was parked in the hospital parking lot. As soon as he got inside, he just leaned back in the seat without holding the steering wheel because his hands were holding his hair in frustration. A rough breath escaped his lips.

Why did his life turn out like this?

When he learned that Sarah had feelings for him six years ago, and that she was willing to give them another chance, Michael was overjoyed.

However, the thought of him missing his kids for five years, because of his mother, made Michael feel various emotions inside of him.

He was sad, disappointed, and angry. If the culprit was a stranger, he might immediately hold them accountable for what they did. However, the one who did this to him was his own mother, and Michael simply couldn't give the punishment he would give to a stranger.

Michael sighed again and put his hands on the steering wheel. His brown hair, which had been neatly combed, now looked messy. However, he didn't care about that at all.

"I must strengthen my resolve!" Michael whispered quietly, barely audible.

​ All this time, even though he felt his mother was very annoying and they fought several times, Michael always had a soft spot for his mother in his heart. He didn't have the heart to mad or do anything more than just shout at her

Even though his mother had disappointed him many times, or did things that cross the line, what Michael always did was ignore her and never do anything to his mother.

After all, that old woman was his mother, the one who gave birth to him.

However, this time he would really act if his mother did something that would ruin his life again, or his family!

Michael just hoped that this time his mother wouldn't let him down again.

***

When she came out of her kids's room after putting them to sleep, Sarah's eyes immediately turned to the table in the living room, to see if Michael was still working on his laptop or not.

Sarah's feet then immediately walked over to Michael who currently looks very focused on his laptop screen. He seemed to be working on a very important job that he didn't notice that Sarah had come out of the room and was watching him.

Sarah's footsteps then suddenly stopped when she was already a few steps near Michael. From where she was she tried to peek into the laptop screen to see if Michael was busy or not.

Feeling like someone was watching him, Michael then immediately turned to the right, making Sarah flinch because Michael suddenly turned to her.

"Are you busy?" Sarah asked after clearing her throat. She just got caught peeking! So embarrassed!

Michael immediately shook his head.

"I'm not, why?" Michael asked with raised eyebrows.

Usually after Sarah puts the kids to bed, the woman would go to the balcony to see the city view, or sit at the dining table holding her cellphone. This was the first time Sarah had come to approach him

"You want to ask me out on a date?" Michael asked with a grin.

Sarah rolled her eyes when she heard that. Looks like after last Saturday, Michael has become even more shameless!

"I want to talk to you, it's about the kids," Sarah said seriously. "But it looks like you're busy," she continued, trying to peek back at Michael's laptop screen.

"I thought you wanted to ask me out," Michael said with a seductive smile.

"Not really!" Michael said immediately, shaking his head and closing his laptop. "I did work on something, but you and the kids are more important," he continued and stood up quickly.

"Should we talk here, at the dinner table, or on the balcony?" Michael asked, pointing to one by one place where he and Sarah could talk. "Or do you want to go out? Maybe we can visit a good restaurant," he suggested again.

Sarah's mouth opened when she heard that. She did want to talk to Michael, but wasn't going out too much?

"We can talk at the dinner table," Sarah finally said then quickly went to the table and left Michael.

Michael then quickly followed her, but she didn't sit down immediately and walked over to the refrigerator and took the two cans of beer that were there, then handed one to Sarah.

Sarah didn't refuse and immediately opened her beer.

"So what do you want to talk about?" Michael asked after placing his can of beer on the table.

"That…"

Sarah then began to tell about her meeting with the twins' kindergarten teacher who said that the Twins could already be enrolled for primary school because of their performances.

"The school will start in two weeks, so we should have started looking for schools to enroll them. Oh right, the kids will also have a graduation on Thursday. You can come if you have time," said Sarah ending her explanation.

Michael just nodded his head when he heard that. His kids are about to start primary school. It seemed that time had passed so quickly.

"I'll definitely come," Michael said, nodding. "Thanks for telling me," he continued with a smile.

Sarah can not tell him about this, but it looks like Sarah really has accepted him to be the father of the kids.

"Then what do you think about the kids' school?" Sarah asked, trying to get Michael's opinion on it.

"Hmm..." Michael fell silent hearing that. "Honestly, I don't know. I even just found out that school will start in two weeks," Michael answered innocently.

"How about you? You must have thought about it, right?" Michael asked again.

Sarah didn't answer right away and took another sip of her beer.

"Honestly, I want to find a school that is close, but I haven't found an apartment for me and the kids," said Sarah, looking back at Michael.

At first, Sarah intended to find an apartment after she found a job. She will look for an apartment near her workplace later, and of course one that matches her salary.

However, until now she had not received a call for an interview, and apparently the time had passed so quickly.

Michael nodded when he heard that. It was better to find a school nearby, but Sarah's next words made him frown.

"Apartment for you and the kids?" Michael asked, repeating Sarah's words because he thought he heard him wrong.

Sarah nodded.

"Yes, two weeks from now marks two months for me and the kids to live here. I even plan to visit Mr Collins tomorrow to remind him not to break his promise," Sarah said calmly.

Michael fell silent when he heard that. His mouth opened in surprise. Two weeks from now will be the two months they lived together. Why did it go by so fast?!

Did that mean he was going to part with Sarah and the kids again?

He knows they are living together to change his father's will, but… do Sarah and the kids have to leave after his father changed his will?

No! He didn't want that to happen. He was just getting excited that Sarah wanted to give him a chance, and his kids were getting closer to him and not calling him an old man anymore.

But… What if Sarah refuses his request? Michael suddenly felt worried.

Michael immediately shook his head. This is not the time to hesitate for fear of rejection!

He then immediately took his can of beer and took a sip, hoping that the beer would help him.

"Can't you and the kids just stay here?"
