Cohabitation With My Ex-Husband

"What are you thinking about?"

Michael immediately realized when he heard the question, he then turned to the woman who had recently become his wife.

"It is nothing!"

"You terrible liar!" Sarah said with a smile. "Don't you realize that you often do that when you're thinking?"

"What?" asked Michael in confusion.

Sarah then tapped the table with her index finger, making her brow furrow.

"This… You often do this when you're thinking. So what were you thinking? Hmm?"

***

Michael's mouth opened slightly when he saw what the Blonde was doing. He suddenly started to get chills!

He first learned he had such a habit from Sarah, and it seems like it's true because James also said the same thing.

Seeing the little boy who also did the same like what he did, made Michael feel something strange inside of him.

He and the Twins… had too much in common.

Well, actually it's not that much. Their names were just the same, Raphael didn't like tomatoes as much as he did, and how Gabriel seemed to act while thinking was the same as he did.

As for the name, it could indeed be a coincidence. Again, Sarah might just want to name her children after angels, rather than similar names like Luke and Leo, or Ian and Isaac, or maybe Brandon and Brian.

Names that start with the same letter.

As for tomatoes, that could once again be a coincidence. How many kids in this world don't like tomatoes?

However… Was this time also just a coincidence?

Michael had never seen how he looked when he was thinking, he only saw from the example Sarah gave at that time, but Michael was sure what he was looking at right now must be very similar to what he was doing!

"Uncle?"

Michael's thoughts were immediately diverted when he heard the voice of the little boy.

"Eh?"

"I said I wanted pizza!" Gabriel said, repeating his words once again.

"Oh, yes! Uncle is gonna call the pizza first. Wait a minute!" Michael said then immediately took his cellphone which was in the living room.

After he finished ordering the pizza, Michael fell silent again, processing what had just happened.

He then glanced at Gabriel who had now returned to playing with the car and also his stuffed bunny.

"Is he my son?" Michael muttered quietly looking at the blonde haired little boy.

This time, he finally completed the sentence.

Actually when he saw Gabriel, the little boy didn't look like him at all, and neither did Sarah. He had blonde hair with blue eyes, which neither he had nor Sarah.

But Michael could see a slight resemblance in the little boy's face to Sarah's, his eyes were a different color, but they looked like Sarah's, his nose too. For that little boy's lips… maybe like him?

Michael shook his head, he must be really crazy right now!

"No, this is too coincidental!" thought Michael who couldn't shake off the thought as usual.

He then immediately walked over to Gabriel and sat beside the little boy.

"Gabriel, how old are you?" asked Michael, starting to try to interrogate him.

All this time Michael did not know how old the Twins were. To be sure, they couldn't have been six because he and Sarah split six years ago.

He also had no experience with children so he could tell how old they were just by looking at them, but from the way they spoke and how they had gone to kindergarten, Michael was sure they were probably around four years old.

"I'm five years old. Rapa is also five years old because we're twins!"

Michael was silent when he heard that, his brain then started doing the calculations.

"Pregnancy takes nine months, and if the Twins are now five years old, that means…"

Michael fell silent when he got the results. Sarah got pregnant six years ago.

Does that mean they are his children?

Michael got chills again when the thought crossed his mind. He looked at Gabriel who was busy playing alone. Is that child his son?

Michael's head suddenly shook. Gabriel had hair and eye color similar to that Blonde doctor, and Sarah had clearly said that she was dating him.

But…

"Oh right, Gabriel," Michael could feel his voice shaking a little. "Did you know that when you're thinking, you tap your fingers on the table?" asked Michael curiously.

"Yeah, I do that often."

Michael was silent at the little boy's answer. He knows it?

"Did Gabriel see someone do that and follow it?" Michael asked and swallowed his saliva.

Don't children often imitate what they see? So it could be that Gabriel did that because he saw someone doing it.

Yes, that's definitely what happened!

"No, I did that myself." Michael was silent when he heard the answer from the little boy. He did it himself?

"Mommy said, that's what Daddy often does too."

Deg. Michael's heart seemed to stop when he heard the little boy's words.

"Daddy?" Michael asked with his mouth suddenly dry.

"Yes!" Gabriel answered, nodding his head. "Our Daddy isn't here because he's working far away, but Mommy said, Daddy's a cool guy! Much cooler than Batman!" Gabriel said with a big smile.

He was always happy when he talked about his Daddy.

Michael was suddenly speechless when he heard that, his eyes started to tear up.

This child is his son?!

He didn't know if the Blonde doctor was doing the same thing like he did when he was thinking, but from all the similarities and coincidences. Aren't they his children?

Yes, that's for sure! He didn't know why Sarah described their Daddy as cool, but if he had to compare himself to the Blonde, wouldn't he be cooler?

"Why do you look sad, uncle?" Gabriel asked when he noticed the look on Michael's face.

He then immediately released his grip from his toy, then stood up and hugged Michael.

"Uncle may not be as cool as Daddy, but Uncle is pretty cool! Don't be sad!"

Michael chuckled as he saw those tiny hands trying to hug his body and pat his back.

He did not expect that this little boy was his. What he was feeling right now couldn't be described in words.

"Not really. Uncle is not sad. But thanks for hugging me. Gabriel can continue playing again," Michael replied with a smile and sounding soft.

For now, this is just speculation. Even though Michael was 95 percent sure that he was their Daddy, Michael wouldn't rush to introduce himself as their Daddy.

He still needed five percent to make him so sure!

And that five percent he could get from Sarah. He had to confront the woman and ask her if what he thought was true!
