Today as usual, the four people who lived together in a penthouse were having breakfast to start their day.
The two fraternal twins sitting next to each other, devoured the breakfast their Mommy had just given them, making those who saw them would think they had not eaten for days. Even though it's just because their Mommy's food is delicious.
One of them who had blonde hair then raised his head, looked at the man he called uncle, who was sitting right in front of him, then at his Mommy. The little boy tilted his head, as if realizing something was not like the previous days.
"Oh! Uncle eats the same menu as us!" said Gabriel when he realized what was different.
Previously, when his Mommy prepared the food, Michael would definitely not get what his Mommy made. However, today everything looked different.
"Ohh… today Mommy made more portions," said Sarah, trying to hide her embarrassed expression.
To be honest, after what happened yesterday with Michael, Sarah felt bad for the man, and it seemed like she would be too mean if she couldn't even prepare a meal for Michael.
She doesn't know why, she just felt like doing that to Michael.
Michael was also a little surprised at first when he was about to make breakfast for him, Sarah suddenly told him not to because she was going to prepare food for Michael.
Gabriel nodded his head at that. So that's the reason why Mommy prepares food for uncle.
"I thought Mommy wasn't fighting with uncle anymore," Gabriel said suddenly.
"Huh?" Sarah and Michael looked surprised when they heard that.
"Mommy never looks at uncle when Mommy's eating," Gabriel explained. "Right, Rapa?" Gabriel then turned to his brother, to ask for support from his brother.
Raphael nodded, he also realized that.
Sarah opened her mouth in disbelief when she heard that. She didn't expect that her kids would pay attention to her.
"No, Mommy and Uncle didn't fight," Sarah said hastily. She then turned to Michael. "Right?"
Michael, who was eating, was slightly surprised when he heard Sarah asking for his opinion. He hastily swallowed his food then nodded.
"Yes, uncle and Mommy never fight," said Michael with a smile.
To be honest, he was just as surprised as Sarah was. He didn't think that the kids would be so sensitive and pay attention to them.
Gabriel nodded again at that, his head bobbing with pleasure knowing that his Mommy and Uncle Michael weren't fighting.
Sarah breathed a sigh of relief when she saw that Gabriel had resumed his breakfast and had not asked things that had taken her by surprise.
She didn't think that Gabriel would be such an observant at all, it seemed she was starting to have to be careful now in front of her kids.
Meanwhile, Michael didn't think much of what Gabriel was asking any further than praising his very smart son.
The questions from his son did make him speechless at times in shock, but it wasn't a big deal at all.
Wouldn't it be good if he was curious about it?
Meanwhile Raphael just ate his food without saying anything about it.
He also realized that something was different with Mommy and Uncle Michael today. However, he will not comment on that.
After spending time with Uncle Michael, the man wasn't as bad as he thought. He also had no problem calling Michael as uncle.
However, that doesn't mean he will support the uncle to seduce Mommy! He will still protect Mommy! For Daddy's sake!
"Then, does Mommy like uncle?" Gabriel asked after swallowing his food and then looked at his Mommy with a curious look.
The innocent question that came out of the boy's lips made the three other people sitting at the dining table choke immediately.
Raphael looked at his brother with an annoyed look. Why was his brother so stupid and asking such a question? Has he forgotten Daddy?! It seemed that after this he had to talk to his little brother.
Raphael then turned to his Mommy to wait for the answer that would come out of his Mommy's lips. He just hoped that his Mommy wouldn't let him down, and neither would Daddy!
Meanwhile, Michael was also staring at Gabriel, but his gaze was very different from what his eldest son had just given him. It was a look of great gratitude.
Once again his youngest son said something random, but it made him happy! Why is his son so smart?!
Michael's gaze then immediately looked at Sarah, curious about the answer that would come out of the woman's lips.
Sarah choked when she heard the question from her son. Why did her son suddenly ask something like that this morning? Then… Why were all the men at the dining table staring at her, as if waiting for an answer from her?
"That… Hmm…" Sarah licked her lips which suddenly felt dry. She didn't know how to answer that question!
It might just be a question from a child, but she knew that he couldn't answer it casually. She couldn't possibly answer "Yes" because that would lead Michael to misunderstand.
It was also impossible for her to say "No" because she was sure her son would ask her the reason, and that could also lead Michael to misunderstand!
Ah! Did that mean she was hesitant to answer that because Michael was now staring at her and waiting for an answer to come out of her?
"Mommy doesn't like uncle?" Gabriel asked when he saw that his Mommy didn't answer at all. His facial expression was sad.
"Don't worry, uncle! I like uncle, because uncle is a good person!" said Gabriel trying to comfort Michael.
Sarah's eyes widened when she heard the words Gabriel had just said. There it is!
"No! Mommy likes uncle too," Sarah licked her lips again. "Because uncle is a good person!" she continued with a smile.
A wide smile immediately crossed Gabriel's face when she heard that. Thank goodness his Mommy loves the uncle like him too!
The same can be seen in the expression on Raphael's face. He was relieved to hear the answer that came out of his Mommy's lips. Looks like his Mommy likes uncle as much as Gabriel likes that guy!
Well… it doesn't matter at all because he also likes Michael for the same reason, uncle is a good person!
Michael just pursed his lips when he heard that answer. He was actually a little disappointed by the answer that came out of Sarah's lips. Even though Sarah said that she likes him, it wasn't the kind of liking he expected.
"It's all right, Michael!" thought Michael, trying to cheer himself up. "At least you are a good person!"
Sarah then cleared her throat, she could feel the atmosphere at the dining table becoming a little awkward because of what she just said.
"Gabriel, let's finish your meal, the bus school is coming," Sarah said, trying to shift the boy's focus so he wouldn't ask any more questions that would make the situation awkward and difficult for her to answer.
Gabriel just nodded hearing that then continued his meal with a happy heart. He was happy!
***
After taking the kids on their school bus, Sarah and Michael immediately headed towards the hospital to visit Mr. Collins because it had been a long time since Sarah had visited the man, and she wanted to remind Mr. Collins to keep his promise.
Mr Collins looked surprised at the sudden visit. A smile immediately appeared on his face when he saw the woman he had considered like his own child.
"Are you that happy, Dad? You didn't look like that when I came to visit!" said Michael, trying to tease his father.
"Of course! I really like Sarah!" said Mr. Collins who was not ashamed to admit it.
Sarah just smiled shyly at the words of the old man.
"How are you?" asked Sarah. "Are you eating regularly?" she continued when she saw the man's body getting thinner.
"After seeing you, I became fine!" said Mr Collins who couldn't stop smiling. He really likes Sarah!
Sarah smiled again when she heard that.
"Stop flattering me! I'm getting uncomfortable telling you something!" Sarah said in a half-joking tone to let him know she didn't come here just to visit him, but there was something else to it.
"What's that?" asked Mr Collins curiously.
Sarah then mentioned Mr Collins' promise to her and that she only had two weeks left.
Mr Collins' expression immediately changed upon hearing this, before he finally nodded in understanding. After all, he had promised!
Sarah then began to ask how Mr. Collins was feeling, if he had any pain complaints, and the things she usually asked when he was visiting her patients.
"Ah! Forgive me!" said Sarah who just realized that at this time she was acting like a doctor.
"It's all right! I don't mind at all!" said Mr Collins with a smile. "You are better than my doctor! Too bad you're not my doctor! I feel like I will definitely recover!" continued Mr. Collins trying to flatter Sarah again.
Sarah just smiled without answering when she heard that. Did she have to think about it again to become a doctor?
