Cohabitation With My Ex-Husband

Chapter 278 Graduation Ceremony



Sarah looked at the stage in front of her which was currently showing the kids wearing their graduation uniforms and singing a song.

One her hand held her cellphone to record the performance, as did the people beside her, while her other hand continuously waved at the two fraternal twins standing next to each other, trying to let them know that she was there and was looking at the two of them. .

A wide smile was clearly visible on Sarah's face, looking at her two babies who were graduating, and her eyes were filled with tears.

She was very proud of them, but on the other hand, it made her realize that his two babies had grown up.

Time has really gone by so fast.

Raphael immediately smiled when he managed to find his Mommy among the other adults sitting in front of him. He even tried to sing louder, hoping his Mommy could see the performance he was going to dedicate to his Mommy today.

Suddenly, Raphael realized something. The seat next to his Mommy looked empty.

He then tried to look around his Mommy. Should there be an empty seat there?

After looking around, it turns out that there are several empty seats besides the one next to his Mommy. However, Raphael realized something again.

Not only women came, but also men came. From where he was he could hear several men saying to look at Daddy.

'Ah! So Daddy should come too,' thought Raphael, realizing that not only Mommy should be invited, but Daddy too.

If so, where's his Daddy? Did Mommy invite Daddy to come?

While still singing, Raphael tried to take a good look in front of him. Trying to find a man who looks cooler than Batman. His Daddy.

His friends' Daddy are coming today, so his Daddy should be coming too, right?

However, no matter how Raphael tried to find a man cooler than Batman, he simply couldn't find him. He then turned back to his Mommy because he realized that Mommy seemed to be taking a photo of him.

Raphael's facial expression changed slightly when he saw that the seat that had been empty had now been occupied by someone. That's Michael.

But… wasn't that seat supposed to be occupied by his Daddy? Why would Uncle Michael come and sit there? It should have been occupied by his Daddy!

Raphael again felt the feeling he couldn't explain when he saw Michael sitting there. He did like the uncle quite a bit, and it didn't matter if he came to see him and Gabriel.

However, why was the uncle sitting in the seat that seemed like a place for his Daddy? What if his Daddy has come and has no place to sit?

'Don't cry,' thought Raphael trying to keep the tears from rolling down his cheeks. He had promised not to cry again.

But if he imagined how his Daddy might come and not have a seat. It made him sad. What was he supposed to do?

***

"You're here," Sarah said quietly when she felt someone sitting beside her.

Last night Michael had said they were going together. However, it seemed that something urgent had happened at the office this morning, forcing Michael to go to the office first.

"Yes, I'm sorry I'm late," Michael said smiling apologetically and then immediately turned to the stage, looking for his two kids and a smile immediately appeared on his lips when he found his two kids.

Without waiting any longer, Michael took out his cellphone and started taking pictures and videos of them.

He felt a strange feeling when he saw the two kids. His kids have finished kindergarten and will soon register for elementary school.

They were getting older, and he couldn't seem to do anything for either of them yet. He couldn't even tell them he was their Daddy, or even give them a complete family.

Michael then turned to his side, saw the mother of his kids who was currently smiling broadly looking at their kids.

After this, the kids will have a week off before they will go to school. He had to make good use of the opportunity to reunite his family.

Michael then turned his head back towards the stage. He already had an idea of ​​what he should do, but for now he better look at his kids and enjoy their performance.

Not long after, the graduation ceremony was finally finished and became free time. Either for photos, or enjoying the meal provided by the school.

"Mommy!"

Sarah immediately opened her arms wide to welcome her two kids who were running towards her. As usual, she landed kisses alternately on them.

"Did Mommy see me earlier?"

"Mommy saw me singing earlier, right?"

The two of them then started throwing questions in turn, and Sarah, who was used to it, answered them both.

Meanwhile, Michael who was standing next to Sarah seemed to feel alienated looking at the two kids who seemed to ignore him.

"Ahem." Michael cleared his throat, trying to get the three people's attention. "You guys looked so cool! Uncle didn't know that you guys had such a good voice!" said Michael in a cheerful tone of voice.

The three of them finally turned to Michael.

"Thank you, uncle!" Gabriel and Raphael said in unison. Gabriel's face looked embarrassed at being praised like that, while Raphael looked normal.

The little dark brown haired boy's head then looked around again, trying to find a man cooler than Batman who might be approaching them right now.

"Mommy…" Raphael called softly, still trying to find the man.

"Is Daddy not coming?" Raphael finally turned to Sarah to ask that.

"Eh?" Sarah looked a little surprised at the question. Likewise with Michael.

Raphael's hand then raised and pointed at his other friends.

"My friends' Daddy are coming. How about my Daddy?" asked Raphael once more. The expression on his face was clearly sad when he asked that.

Gabriel, who was already hungry and wanted to eat quickly, immediately looked around when he heard his brother's words.

Right. Why didn't Daddy come?

"Ah… That…" Sarah subconsciously turned to Michael. Their daddy came and was here. However, Sarah knew that her two kids did not know about it.

Meanwhile, Michael felt something cut his heart when he heard that question.

Daddy's here.

Michael really wanted to say that, but he still had doubts. What if the kids reject him? Or disappointed because he is his Daddy?

He was afraid.

He may not be afraid to make a difficult and risky decision when running a company. However, in front of the two small kids he felt insecure.

Seeing Michael who was silent, Sarah sighed, trying to calm herself so that she could find an excuse that wouldn't hurt her kids' hearts.

"Raphael and Gabriel's daddy is still working," said Sarah, who couldn't find any other excuse than that.

"Working?" asked the two with sad expressions on their faces.

Sarah nodded her head.

"Yeah, Raphael and Gabriel know that when you're working, it's hard to come to see you. Back when Mommy was still working, Mommy was busy too, right?" Sarah said softly, trying to give them understanding.

Both nodded, but Raphael's expression was still dissatisfied when he heard that.

"Then… When can I meet Daddy?" asked Raphael sadly.

Sarah swallowed her saliva when she heard the question, then smiled again.

"As soon as possible. Mommy promises that Raphael and Gabriel will meet Daddy as soon as possible," said Sarah with a smile.

To be honest, she could understand Michael being afraid to face their kids. However, how long will Michael hold off on this?

If the man didn't want to tell them soon, Sarah promised she would tell them herself first. She couldn't keep seeing the sad expressions on her kids' faces as they looked for their Daddy!

***

When the four people were eating the meal provided, suddenly someone approached them.

"Mr Collins?" said one of the men who seemed to recognize Michael.

Michael looked at the man in confusion. He didn't recognize the man at all.

The man then introduced himself as one of the businessmen and was happy to meet Michael.

"I never expected to meet you at my son's graduation ceremony," said the man. He then turned to Sarah and the Twins who were eating at the dining table with Michael ..

His expression immediately changed seeing that. As far as he knows, Michael is a single man and has never been married. Then why was he with a woman, and twins here?

Ah no. Why did Michael come to the kindergarten graduation ceremony?

Michael only smiled briefly when he heard those words.

"I apologize, but right now I'm eating. We can talk another time," Michael said politely.

The man nodded in understanding and then excused himself. However, the expression on his face was confusing.

"Where have you been?" asked the man's wife as he approached his wife. The expression on his wife's face looks annoyed

"Ah! I was meeting Mr. Collins." The man explained.

"Collins?.Collins who?" he asked confusedly.

"Michael Collins. By the way, is Mr Collins married? Isn't he still single?" the man asked in confusion. What he saw earlier still bothered him.

"You met Michael Collins here?" asked his wife in a half sarcastic tone. "Of course he's single! You know my friend works at Collins, right? If Michael Collins was married, she would have told me!"

"After all, how could you meet Michael Collins at the kindergarten graduation ceremony? You may have seen it wrong!" said his wife, shaking her head.

"No," said her husband disapprovingly. He then raised his hand and pointed at Michael's desk. "Look. That's Mr. Michael Collins."

The woman then followed the direction indicated by her husband. Her eyes immediately widened. It really was Michael Collins.

What is he doing here?
