"There's something Mommy wants to talk to you about."
Raphael and Gabriel, who were enjoying their cookies, immediately stopped eating and looked at Sarah with serious expressions on their faces.
This wasn't the first time their Mommy had said that she wanted to talk to them about something, so both of them knew right away that this was something serious.
"Why did your face suddenly turn serious?" Sarah asked, laughing a little at the sight of her two babies' faces.
"Because Mommy wants to talk," Raphael replied and put the half cookies on the plate again.
"Are we leaving, Mommy?" Gabriel asked suddenly in a sad tone like he wanted to cry.
The last time Sarah wanted to talk to them, their Mommy said they had to go to London, their Mommy's hometown, and leave their home.
Is it time for them to leave this house?
Raphael's expression immediately changed when he heard his brother's question. The little boy thought he would be happy not to see the old man again. However, he had already become close to the old man, he had even called him uncle now.
The thought of them leaving here made him feel sad. He knew this was Michael's house, so if they left, he wouldn't be coming with them.
"Ah!" Raphael suddenly thought of something. "Are we going to meet Daddy?!" asked Raphael excitedly.
His sadness just now disappeared when he thought that. Finally, after a long wait, he will meet his Daddy!
"Is that true?!" Gabriel's face, which looked sad because he was thinking the same thing as his brother, that they were going to leave Michael, immediately changed when he heard his brother's words.
Even though Gabriel didn't ask about his Daddy as often as his brother, he also wanted to meet his Daddy.
Sarah's face, which was smiling ear to ear at her two babies' adorable faces, turned into an apologetic look.
"Mommy's sorry, but we're not going, or seeing Daddy," said Sarah, who had lost her smile when she saw the disappointed looks on her kids' faces.
"Would you like to see Daddy soon?" Sarah asked slowly and carefully.
The two nodded and looked at Sarah with expectant eyes.
"Okay, Mommy will take you to meet Daddy soon, but not now, okay?" Sarah said smiling and holding out her pinky to make a pinky promise.
She knew that Michael was still scared and needed time to deal with the kids, especially since it had only been about a month when Michael knew they were his kids and tried to be close to them.
However, Sarah wasn't going to let this go on any longer when she saw the sad expressions on her kids's faces.
Looks like today she's going to ask Michael about it. If the man was still unprepared or scared, then Sarah would drag him to face their kids.
Both of their faces immediately smiled when they saw Sarah's pinky finger. It means that they will soon meet their Daddy.
Their Mommy always keeps her promises.
After alternately linking their pinkies, Raphael and Gabriel again took their cookies and ate them.
"Mommy hasn't finished talking yet," Sarah said then immediately chuckled when she saw her two kids put the cookies in their hands back on the plate.
"You can eat the cookies while listening to Mommy," said Sarah when she saw the expressions on the faces of the two who wanted to eat cookies, but couldn't because they had to listen to her.
The two then immediately took their cookies again and ate them.
Sarah couldn't help but smile at her son's adorable behavior.
"Raphael, Gabriel," Sarah called. "Now that you're in elementary school, that means you're already big boys, right?"
Both nodded.
"Yeah, we're not kindergartners anymore!" replied Raphael with a mouth full of cookies.
"We're big boys and not babies anymore!" Gabriel answered excitedly.
Sarah smiled at that. Even though they will forever be her babies.
"Do you know Mommy's job?" continued Sarah starting what she wanted to talk to them about.
Both nodded.
"Mommy is a doctor!" replied Raphael.
"Mommy helps sick people!" Gabriel replied.
Sarah nodded at the answer. Her kids really understand her job.
"That was Mommy's old job, when we lived in America. What is Mommy's job right now?" Sarah asked, trying to find out if her kids understood her current situation.
The two of them fell silent when they heard the question. Their faces look confused.
"Mommy doesn't work and just stays at home." Sarah explained.
The two of them opened their mouths and nodded at that. When they think about it again, they always see Sarah at home.
"Well, what Mommy wants to talk to you about right now is… Mommy wants to ask you if Mommy can go back to work as a doctor," Sarah asked, finally telling them what she wanted to ask.
Because until now no one has called her for an interview Sarah decided to return to being a surgeon because she felt that her chances of being called would be greater.
She also had to think about the rent she had to give Michael so she could live here without feeling indebted to Michael. So as much as possible she should get a job as soon as possible, and now is the right time because now her kids are in elementary school.
However, before she did that. She had to discuss this with her kids first, explain it to them so they could understand.
Unlike general practitioners, surgeons hardly have time because they are busy. So she had to give that understanding to her kids first, so they could understand why later she couldn't be with them at home.
"Yes! Mommy is so cool when Mommy helps sick people!" Gabriel answered excitedly.
"Right! Mommy is a doctor!" replied Raphael.
Sarah smiled at that.
"But…" Sarah then began to explain that this time it would be very different.
"When you come home from school, Mommy won't be home. You two might go out with Uncle Michael, or Mommy will hire an aunt again like when we lived in America."
The two of them fell silent when they heard this.
"Are we not going to see Mommy again?" asked Raphael, looking sad.
"No. We'll still have breakfast and dinner together, but not lunch," Sarah replied.
"Mommy can do it!" Gabriel answered suddenly. "There's an uncle who can take care of us, so Mommy doesn't have to worry!" he continued with a sweet smile.
It had been a long time since he'd been to Michael's office, and it didn't look bad if he had to go there again. He can eat good food.
"Okay, I agree too!" replied Raphael nodding his head.
Sarah couldn't help but smile when she heard the answers from her kids. She then immediately stood up and went to hug them.
She thought they would sulk and she had to persuade them. However, it seemed that every day they were getting older, Sarah was very proud of them.
Now that the kids have agreed, she has to talk to Michael about what they will do when she returns to work and when Michael will tell them he is their Daddy.
