Cohabitation With My Ex-Husband

Chapter 367 Olivia (2)

"Yes!" Gabriel answered while nodding his head. His face looked confused when he saw Olivia's expression that was shocked by that.

What's wrong if he still sleeps with Rapa? Rapa is his brother.

Well… even though now they had to sleep in one bed and didn't have their own bed like they used to, but this bed was big enough so it didn't matter if they had to sleep together.

"Are you guys still babies?!" asked Olivia in a raised voice, surprised to hear that.

Gabriel's face changed, slightly offended by that. Likewise with Raphael who didn't want to talk much and ignored them, immediately got up from his bed.

"We are not babies!" Raphael said angrily.

To be honest, he didn't really like Olivia that much. In his opinion, the little girl was too noisy.

"Then do you have your own room?" he continued in a challenging tone.

Olivia was seen smiling when Raphael spoke to her. She then turned towards the little boy.

"Of course! My daddy decorated my room in pink, like a princess," she replied with a proud smile.

Raphael's face changed slightly when he heard that. So Olivia really has her own room!

"You guys should visit my house later. I'll show you my room," Olivia continued excitedly.

"Really?" A smile appeared on Gabriel's face when he heard that. "You want us to come to your house? You promise?" Gabriel asked, then held up his pinky finger.

"I promise!" She answered with a big smile on his face. She then immediately let go of the little finger and turned to Raphael.

"Give me your little finger, Rapa!" Olivia answered excitedly.

Gabriel's smile immediately disappeared upon seeing that. He… felt confused.

Michael looked at the three kids who were eating in front of him with a smile on his face. Even though he didn't cook the food they were eating, he felt happy watching them eating it well.

"This is really good, Mr. Collins. Thank you very much!" said Olivia, holding up her thumb to praise Michael.

"Really? I'm glad you like it," Michael replied with a smile on his face.

"So which school did you go to, Olivia?" asked Michael, starting his conversation with the little girl. He suddenly became a little curious about the little girl who managed to steal his son's attention.

Michael just nodded as the little girl explained her school. It was a good school, he and Sarah had chosen that school for their kids before as an option.

To Michael's amazement, the little girl seemed brave and spoke well to people she met. She also looks decent.

'Wait a minute! Did I just like this little girl?' thought Michael as he realized what was happening. There seems to be something strange about him. Why did he keep passing judgment on the little girl?

Like… she's going to be his daughter-in-law?

He must be crazy!

"Daddy! Can I go to school there too?" Gabriel asked suddenly, looking at his father.

"So you can go to school with Olivia?" asked Michael with a smile on his face.

Gabriel nodded.

"We can ask Mommy about that later," Michael replied, shaking his head. His son is really hopeless.

Actually, who did he take after to be like that?

"By the way, Olivia, what do you think about Riel?" asked Michael suddenly with a teasing smile on his face.

Gabriel, who was eating, immediately raised his head and looked at his Daddy with widened eyes. His eyes looked as if he wanted to say 'What are you doing, Daddy?', before finally the little boy turned to Olivia, waiting for her answer while holding his breath.

"Risl is so cute! He's adorable!" Olivia answered casually.

"I'm cute?" Gabriel asked, tilting his head so he could see Olivia's face.

"What are you doing?" said Michael who hastily pulled his son when he saw his youngest child's face too close to Olivia's as if he wanted to kiss her.

Gabriel just laughed shyly, as well as Olivia who looked embarrassed then turned to her left side, turning her face away from Gabriel.

At first, Michael thought the little girl was doing it because she was embarrassed, but after he looked at her one more time, the little girl seemed to turn several times to her left, as if she was watching something.

Michael then followed the little girl's gaze, and saw his eldest son eating without saying anything, focused on eating the food in front of him.

"Oh! Shit!" Michael cursed inside when he saw that look.

What had he been afraid of all this time that would happen?

When he thought about it some more, the little girl even called Raphael over to play with them.

"Then, what about Rapa?" asked Michael suddenly, to see if what he was thinking was right or not.

"Rapa?" Olivia suddenly looked flustered when she heard that name. "He… He's not cute at all!"

Raphael stared at Olivia for a while then continued eating his food. It didn't bother him at all.

Gabriel, on the other hand, seemed pleased with it. Rapa is not cute. Only he is cute.

Unlike the little boy, Michael was feeling various emotions inside him at this moment.

Even though the little girl answered like that, from the movement of her body and her blushing face, Michael knew that what she had been afraid of all this time was really happening.

The girl Gabriel likes, likes Raphael.

All this time, Michael really hoped that his two kids would not experience something like that, but apparently, something like that was inevitable!

"Daddy."

After Olivia's got picked up, Gabriel suddenly walked over to Michael who was lying on the couch playing with his cell phone.

"What is it? Come here," Michael said calling his son to come closer.

Gabriel then climbed on the couch and hugged Michael.

"What is it? Are you sad that Olivia is going home?" asked Michael who immediately put his cellphone on the table and hugged his son.

"That too, but… there is something else," he answered sadly.

"Why? You can tell Daddy," Michael answered gently while patting his son's back.

"It seems Olivia didn't like me," Gabriel replied as he buried his face in Michael's chest.

Michael flinched slightly when he heard that.

"Why do you think so?" asked Michael trying to comfort his son.

"I can feel it. Olivia likes Rapa." Gabriel raised his head and looked at his father. His eyes looked glassy.

"It's okay," Michael replied and then wiped his tears. "You will definitely find a woman who likes you later," continued Michael with a smile.

To be honest, he didn't expect his son to notice that. However, he forgot that his son was very sensitive. So it was possible if he realized it.

"Okay," Gabriel replied still sadly.

"You have to remember, you and Raphael shouldn't fight just over a woman. Okay?" Michael said giving his advice.

Gabriel just nodded even though he didn't understand what his Daddy meant.

However, that thing continued to be instilled in Gabriel until he grew up.

He and his older brother, shouldn't fight over women!

Dinner today feels very different, Sarah, who just came home a few minutes ago, is confused to see her kids eating in silence and not as usual

"So... are you guys happy your friend came to play here?" a little cheerful.

"Mommy apologizes for coming home late and can't accompany you guys. So tell Mommy what you are doing?" Sarah continued in a cheerful-sounding voice.

"Not much, Mommy," Raphael replied calmly. "We were just playing in our room, eating, and watching cartoons," he continued.

"We want to swim in outside, but Daddy said it was very cold. So we played inside," added Gabriel.

"Oh right, Olivia invited us to play at her house," he continued.

"Really? That's good. You can go but you have to act like good boys in her house, okay?" Sarah said looking at her two children with a smile, but her voice was firm.

Both the kids nodded.

"By the way, Mommy." Gabriel suddenly took off his cutlery and stared Sarah with a serious face expression

"What's wrong?" asked Sarah while raising her eyebrows. It was unusual for her youngest son to look serious like this.

Likewise Michael and Raphael, who were confused by Gabriel's attitude.

"I want my own room."

Sarah's eyes widened when she heard that. She didn't expect Gabriel to tell her that.

Reflexively, Sarah turned to Michael, to see if the man knew anything, or maybe it was Michael's plan again.

Well… after the kids saying they wanted to have a sister, due to Michael's plan, Sarah wouldn't be surprised if this was included in the man's plans as well.

However, it seems that Sarah's guess was wrong. Michael looked as surprised as her.

Sarah then looked at Gabriel again. She put down her cutlery and grabbed her glass, then drank it.

"Why did Riel suddenly want your own room?" she asked gently.

Sarah knew that one day her kids would want a room of their own, and she was determined to do so.

But that's later! Maybe when they get older and need their privacy.

She didn't expect that it would come this fast.

"Are you two having a fight?" She continued and turned to Raphael.

Raphael shook his head when his eyes met his Mommy's, a sign that they weren't fighting.

Sarah became confused. If it wasn't because they were fighting, then why did his youngest son suddenly want his own room?

Quick Question!

The apartment has two floors, the first floor has 2 rooms, Sarah and the kids. The second floor has the master room.

If Gabriel wants his own room, where should Sarah sleep? xD
