A chuckle immediately escaped Michael's lips when he heard what his youngest son had just said. His youngest son's expression, which looks worried and serious, makes it even funnier.
"Why is Daddy laughing?" Gabriel asked confusedly. He was being very serious right now, but his daddy just laughed.
"Hahaha…. sorry," Michael said, then cleared his throat, trying to keep the laughter from escaping his lips.
"So Gabriel wants a little sister with blonde hair and blue eyes like you?" asked Michael looking at his youngest child while holding back his smile.
Gabriel nodded. The boy's expression was serious.
"Okay! Daddy will make a sister like that for Gabriel," Michael said then stroked his head.
Sarah, who had been silent watching their interaction, widened her eyes when she heard what Michael had just said.
All this time Sarah has always had the principle that she would never promise something to her kids if she couldn't keep it and Michael had just promised something he couldn't possibly keep!
Since when can a child be requested?!
Meanwhile, Michael smiled at the happy expression his youngest son had just given off. Feel the happiness of their son and hope that their sons request will be granted.
"Riel!"
Suddenly, a tone of protest from the other child was heard, making Michael look directly at his eldest son.
"Didn't we agree that our little sister is gonna be twins? One looks like me! One looks like you!" Raphael said angrily.
Even though they had previously agreed with twins! Why did his brother suddenly only say that their sister later had to look like him?
"Ah!" Gabriel seemed to come to his senses when he heard that. "Sorry, Rapa. I forgot!" Gabriel replied with a look of regret on his face.
Raphael snorted when he heard his brother's reasoning. As usual, his little brother was acting on his own because he was too young! How was his little brother going to become an older brother if he acted like that?!
Michael watched the interactions of his kids while covering his mouth tightly to keep from laughing. So this is what they were talking about earlier at the dinner table.
How could his kids think such a thing?
Gabriel then looked at Michael again when he saw that his brother looked annoyed.
"Daddy. I'm sorry, but later my sister will have to be twins and look like us," Gabriel said slowly because he felt guilty for his older brother. What if his daddy doesn't want to accept his request anymore?
Michael held back his smile when he heard that.
"Okay, Daddy will give you a twin sister who looks like Gabriel and Raphael!" answered Michael with a big smile on his face.
The twins' expressions immediately looked excited when they heard what their daddy had just said. They act like they've just been given Batman toys. Ah no. Maybe even happier.
Meanwhile, Sarah just kept quiet when her kids were talking. She couldn't even join in the laughter when they said the things that should have made her laugh.
The kids seem eager to have a little sister, which, by the way, is because of Michael.
Sarah really wanted to punch Michael one more time! How does the man involve the kids?
Now she didn't know how to explain that to the kids without letting them down.
"Mommy!"
Sarah, who was thinking, suddenly came to her senses when Gabriel suddenly took her hand and tried to pull her away.
"Mommy!" called Gabriel. "Come on, make a sister for me! Mommy and Daddy should sleep together!" said the little boy then pulled Sarah's hand back to take her inside.
***
Sarah stared at the familiar wall in front of her and sighed for the umpteenth time. She started thinking what exactly was she doing in her ex-husband's room?
"This is all because of that bastard!" Sarah cursed inside, cursing Michael.
As Gabriel began to tug at her, Raphael did the same to Michael. However, the man didn't seem to put up any resistance at all and instead seemed happy because his kids had pulled him to go make them sisters.
Sarah of course had tried to reject it by saying that she had to work tomorrow, but her eldest son suddenly helped his brother to pull her up.
They even started crying and throwing tantrums because they wanted Sarah to go make them a little sister. Sarah had tried to scold them, but both of them really couldn't be persuaded anymore and insisted she come into Michael's room.
Sarah has no other choice but to give in.
So here she is now. Sitting on the edge of the bed in her ex-husband's room.
Sarah's gaze then turned towards the toilet when she heard the door open. Michael came out with a fresher looking face. It looked like he was just washing his face because he was already shower earlier.
"Do you want to… take a shower?" asked Michael with an awkward smile when he saw Sarah just sitting on the edge of the bed like that.
He knew that they were here because of the kids, and they couldn't have sex right away… ahem, make a sister for their kids, but somehow this situation made Michael suddenly feel awkward.
He suddenly flashed back nine years ago when they had just married and were at the hotel for their first night. Sarah is seen sitting on the edge of the bed waiting for him to come out in the bathroom.
The atmosphere was a bit different, but Michael suddenly remembered that!
Looks like something is wrong with him!
"Shower my ass!" Sarah said, looking at Michael with annoyance because she had to be stuck with that man in this room.
She had tried to get out of the room again, but the kids were waiting at the door like a guard and would not let her come out.
"Why do you have to say such things to the kids?!" continued Sarah with a face that looked frustrated. She didn't even have the energy to scold Michael anymore.
Michael made a guilty face when he heard that. To be honest, he didn't expect that the kids would behave like this.
He then immediately approached Sarah and sat next to her.
"Alright! I admit I was wrong," said Michael when he saw Sarah who looked frustrated. "So… you don't want to have another child?" Michael asked slowly and carefully.
Michael could feel his heart beating fast after he said that. From Sarah's tone, he could tell that she didn't seem to want any more kids.
Well… he might not really understand women all that well, but he wasn't so stupid as not to notice that.
Sarah sighed when she heard that, then nodded her head slowly.
To be honest, she still didn't know how to tell Michael that without hurting him. However, it seemed he had to make this clear so Michael wouldn't misunderstand.
"I don't want any more kids, Michael," Sarah replied, looking at the man with a regretful expression.
She knew that Michael really wanted kids because he wanted to experience how to take care of a baby. The man even went so far as to use the twins to help him.
So Sarah felt a little guilty for not being able to give Michael such an experience.
Michael gulped when he heard the words that had just left Sarah's lips. He could have expected it, but hearing it in person still disappointed him.
"Why?" Michael asked, trying hard to hide his disappointment, but he couldn't seem to control his tone of voice from falling.
"I've been looking for information on the internet and women your age can still get pregnant," he continued.
Michael didn't understand at all why Sarah didn't want any more kids. He was completely confused.
If it's a matter of age, Sarah can definitely still do it.
If she's worried about money to raise the child later, Sarah has him.
"Is it because of your job?" Michael asked as it suddenly crossed his mind.
Sarah recently returned to work as a surgeon, and Michael knows how much she loves her job.
Hearing that question, Sarah shook her head. She didn't even think of her job as the reason why she didn't want to have any more kids. Well… she does love her job, but it's just not a priority for her anymore.
"So what?" Michael asked quietly because Sarah didn't open her mouth at all. His hand then grabbed Sarah's hand. "Please tell me, Sarah," he continued, looking at the woman in a tone that sounded desperate.
Sarah bit her lower lip. Should she tell Michael about that?
Meanwhile…
Two small kids who became the guards at the door of the room, looked bored and decided to sit on the floor because they had been standing all along.
"Rapa. Do you think Daddy and Mommy are making our little sister?" asked Gabriel with a curious face.
"Maybe. I don't know either," Raphael answered while occasionally yawning because he was already sleepy. "Shall we go to bed now?" he continued looking at his brother.
"No! I want to wait for Daddy and Mommy to finish!" Gabriel answered, shaking his head. "Ah! What if we hear them?" Gabriel asked, then suddenly stood up and approached the door to try to hear what was going on.
Raphael then followed him and put his ear in front of the door.
"Did you hear that?" Gabriel asked, looking at his brother with a big smile on his face.
He can hear something!
