Cohabitation With My Ex-Husband

After learning that Michael is their Daddy, Sarah called the twins to talk about it. She finally found out why Gabriel had run away, but it seemed he needed some time to accept that his uncle is his Daddy now.

Seeing Michael's face that seemed sad, Raphael then added that he was cooler than Batman, as he explained to his younger brother.

"Even though Daddy is a little older than Batman. Daddy is cooler than Batman!" said Raphael ending his explanation by raising his two thumbs up.

Michael's expression, which had been smiling, changed to surprise at that explanation. Does he look that old?! He's still in his forties!

While Sarah just chuckled at Michael's expression.

Sarah also told them about their other family, Mr. and Mrs. Collins, and both of them seemed excited to hear that. Or rather, Gabriel, who seemed to like his meeting with his grandfather that time.

Well… the kids were quite accepting of what had happened, and Sarah was grateful for that.

"Mommy, should we really go?"

The question from Raphael made Sarah, who had just come out of the room, surprised because she did not expect her son to be waiting for her in front of her room.

Beside Raphael, there was already Gabriel with an excited look on his face. While not far from them, there was Michael who had been dressed neatly.

"What is it?" asked Sarah gently. "Doesn't Raphael want to meet grandpa and grandma?" continued Sarah.

Today was the weekend and Sarah was planning to take her kids to see Mr. and Mrs. Collins again. Apart from formally introducing them as grandparents of her kids, Sarah wanted to take this opportunity to ask about Mr. Collins' promise.

It had been two months since she and Michael had lived together, and Sarah didn't want him to forget to change his will.

"I want to meet grandpa, but… I don't like that old woman," Raphael replied in a sulky tone.

When they heard today they were going to the hospital. Raphael was excited by that. It meant that he would meet his grandfather who seemed very nice because Gabriel liked him.

However, after he finished changing his clothes, Raphael suddenly remembered that he would also meet an old woman who was looking at his Mommy with an annoyed look, making him who had been excited, immediately not want to go.

"That's your grandma. Don't call her that!" said Sarah when she heard her son's words. Her gaze then peeked at Michael whose facial expression looked normal even though he heard what their son just said.

It seemed like Michael had no problem with Raphael calling his mother that. Maybe because he knew the reason his son called his mother like that. Well… his mother kinda deserved it, and Michael was tired of arguing with his mother again.

Raphael's facial expression still looked displeased with that. He knew he had to do what his Mommy said to be a good boy. However, for this matter, he did not want to follow his Mommy's words.

Sarah sighed.

"What if Raphael tries to get acquainted with grandma first? If after this Raphael still doesn't like Grandma, Mommy won't ask Raphael to do it. However, Raphael still had to call her grandma and not an old woman . She's Raphael's grandma," Sarah said softly as she touched her son's cheek.

"That's right, Rapa! They're grandpa and grandma from Daddy's side, right Mommy?" said Gabriel who had only been paying attention to his brother.

Sarah nodded.

"That's right, Gabriel is very smart!"

A smile immediately appeared on the adorable child's face. Feels good to be praised by her Mommy.

"Then who are our grandparents' from Mommy's side? The book says we have two grandpas and two grandmas," Gabriel asked curiously.

Sarah's expression looked surprised to hear that.

"Have you forgotten Grandma Teresa?" said Raphael reminding his brother.

"Ah! You're right!" said Gabriel who forgot about it.

"Yes, your grandma from Mommy is Grandma Teresa. Let's go, look, Daddy's waiting for us," Sarah said then pointed at Michael trying to divert the conversation.

Her kids were too young to know that she had no father and mother, so Sarah decided not to tell them about it. She would tell her when the time was right.

"Grandpaaaaa!" shouted Gabriel running over to the old man in hospital clothes as they entered the room. After his first meeting, he felt comfortable with his grandfather.

Gabriel's footsteps stopped when in the room there was a man wearing black clothes that his Daddy often wore.

While the three people inside, turned their heads when they heard the door to the room open.

"Gabriel?" said Mr. Collins in bewilderment. "Come on, come here. You can come here!" he asked with a smile when he saw Gabriel's doubtful expression as he looked at the other men in the room.

Mrs. Collins' face also looked confused at the arrival of her grandson, her gaze then turned to the door and saw her son, that woman, and her other grandson also coming.

While Raphael was still standing beside Sarah, his expression was wary, like one about to go to war when his eyes met Mrs. Collins.

"Oh, looks like you guys have guests," Sarah said when she saw a stranger in the room. Her facial expression looked uneasy.

She had deliberately told Michael not to say anything so that their arrival would be a surprise. However, it looks like they have guests.

"Ah, he's dad's lawyer," said Michael, recognizing the old man.

"You must be Mrs. Smith," the man said politely with a smile and introduced himself.

"Then I'll excuse myself, Mr. Collins," said the man, turning to Mr. Collins and then excuse himself. He was witty enough to know that he better not bother them.

"So, why did you guys suddenly visit without any advance notice?" asked Mr. Collins with a big smile on his face.

He was delighted by this pleasant sudden visit.

"We are here to visit grandpa and grandpa because you are grandpa and grandma on Daddy's side!" Gabriel answered cheerfully and took his grandfather's hand.

Mr. and Mrs. Collins' faces were shocked at Gabriel's answer. Their gazes then turned in unison to Michael and Sarah who were standing side by side, as if they wanted to ask something.

Both nodded with smiles on their faces in response to the question.

"Grandpa is still wearing this," Gabriel said sadly as he looked at the IV tube attached to Mr. Collins' hand.

"Is grandpa still sick?" he continued, turning to Mr. Collins.

"No, grandpa has become healthy because Gabriel came to visit me," replied Mr. Collins who couldn't stop smiling.

Seeing the interaction between Mr. Collins and Gabriel made Sarah smile too. She was happy with it.

"Raphael, let's play with grandpa and grandma," Sarah said as she put one hand on Raphael's back and gently pushed him away.

Raphael, who still had his fierce expression on and kept his gaze on Mrs. Collins, sighed when he heard his Mommy's orders. He then walked over to them, however, he only approached Mr. Collins.

Seeing her two grandkids heading to her husband made Mrs. Collins feel sad about it. Especially since she could feel her other grandson looking at her with an annoyed look.

"Hello, grandma."

Mrs. Collins's face had a look of surprise as the blonde one suddenly approached her. The boy then turned to Raphael, and when he saw his brother was playing with their grandfather. He looked back.

"Rapa is scary, but he can smile," whispered Gabriel quietly with an attitude that looked scared if his brother realized what he was doing.

"But, Grandma must be good to Mommy. I also don't like grandma who looks at Mommy with an annoyed gaze, but grandma is my grandma. So I'll give Grandma a chance," he continued with a big smile.

Mrs. Collins' eyes widened and her mouth opened at what the kid who had now gone to his grandfather had just said. She never expected her grandson to say something like that to him.

Meanwhile, Sarah's expression also looked surprised because she heard what Gabriel said and Michael just smiled at that.

He was truly proud to have those two kids as his kids.

"Oh right, that was my lawyer to keep my promise to you. You came here because of that, right? You even bring my grandkids," said Mr. Collins suddenly, who had been thinking about why they suddenly came without notice.

"Then…"

"My lawyer will contact you," said Mr. Collins, interrupting Michael's question and turning his attention back to his grandkids.

Michael just nodded at that. He was actually curious, but it seemed that his father didn't want to talk about it when there was a grandson.

The atmosphere in the room then became lively and filled with laughter by Raphael and Gabriel's behavior. Mrs. Collins, who was a little neglected, also tried to be close to her grandkids because she didn't want to feel left behind.

Suddenly, Sarah's cell phone rang, making her immediately excused herself from there to see who was calling her.

"Steve?" Sarah's forehead wrinkled seeing the name shown on the screen of her cellphone.
