Cohabitation With My Ex-Husband

Michael smiled at Sarah's question. He then raised his hand and snapped his index finger and thumb, making a fairly loud sound.

Seeing that, Sarah was a little confused, before she finally let out a small laugh. Looks like Michael wants to follow what is done in romantic films.

And sure enough, just like in the movie, suddenly from inside their apartment came a man wearing a black and white uniform, like a waiter, carrying a plate with him.

The waiter then politely served the food he had brought on the table and started pouring water in Michael and Sarah's glasses.

"Enjoy it," said the waiter with a friendly smile.

Sarah nodded gratefully. The waiter smiled and then left.

Sarah looked at the small portion of food the waiter had just brought. Judging by the size and the food, Sarah immediately knew it was an appetizer. She then looked at Michael.

"I'm glad you didn't think about cooking," Sarah commented, holding back a smile.

Judging from the food, Sarah was very sure that Michael would not cook the food

Michael smiled shyly when he heard that. Actually, at first he wanted to cook himself, but in the end he chose to hire a chef and waiter to help with the event tonight.

"My cooking isn't that bad," Michael commented, feigning annoyance.

Once again Sarah chuckled at that, before Michael laughed along with her.

The two then began to eat the appetizer.

"Oh! This is so good," Sarah exclaimed as the food immediately indulged her taste buds and without waiting any longer she finished the food.

She regretted that the food was only a small portion.

Michel smiled seeing Sarah's expression. Thankfully he hired a chef and didn't want to cook himself.

"By the way, how was your day?" Michael asked once they had both finished their meal.

"I?" Sarah asked, setting her glass down on the table.

Michael nodded.

"Yeah, did your job today go well, did you manage to save someone, or is there something you can tell me about," Michael said softly.

All this time, Michael had wanted to hear stories from Sarah, but Sarah didn't seem willing to tell him.

But… shouldn't the husband and wife have to tell their day?

"That..."

Sarah became flustered, not expecting Michael to ask her that.

Michael was silent, but the expression on his face made it clear that he was still waiting for Sarah's story.

"Everything is going well," Sarah replied curtly and then raised her glass again and drank the water.

Inwardly, Sarah was feeling a little guilty because she was actually relaxing in her apartment today instead of going to the hospital, but Sarah immediately shook her head and pushed the feeling away.

Why should she feel guilty?

"I'm glad to hear that," Michael replied with a smile.

Actually he wanted to hear more than that, the details, but right now it didn't matter.

Not long after, the waiter came again and served the food he had just brought.

It is the main course.

"Would you like a drink? We have wine that goes well with this steak," the man offered.

Michael stared at Sarah, waiting for her approval.

While Sarah was seen biting her lower lip, a little hesitant. Today she wasn't on duty so she could drink alcohol.

However, the last time she drank alcohol with Michael, she had become an easy woman.

"Sure," Sarah said, nodding her head.

Even though Sarah didn't have a good experience with alcohol, the steak in front of her looked very tasty, and definitely went well with wine.

The waiter nodded and then excused himself again.

Suddenly, Sarah immediately realized something and held back her laughter.

"What is it?" asked Michael.

"That… the waiter just said that they have wine that goes well with this steak. Isn't that the wine you bought?" Sarah asked with an amused smile.

She finally realized that they weren't in the restaurant at the moment.

Michael smiled shyly when he heard that. He had indeed bought the wine and told the waiter to offer it first and not serve it right away.

"Maybe the waiter got carried away," said Michael.

Sarah nodded. It must be like that.

Not long after, the waiter came back with a wine glass and a bottle of wine.

He then placed the wine glass on the table and opened the bottle of wine and poured it, before he finally excused himself to leave.

Michael then raised his glass.

"Let's have a toast!"

Sarah also raised her glass.

"For both of us," Michael said softly then touched his glass with Sarah's, a cling sound immediately sounded from it and both of them drank their wine.

Sarah nodded as she tasted the wine, it was delicious. Then start eating the food.

While eating his food, Michael continued to stare at Sarah, which made Sarah a little embarrassed.

"What is it?" asked Sarah.

"You're beautiful," Michael replied with a smile.

Sarah snorted when she heard those cheesy lines. She never expected that Michael would say such a thing.

"I'm serious! You look really pretty right now!" Michael said when he realized Sarah didn't seem to believe him.

"You must be drunk," Sarah said, rolling her eyes.

Sarah admits that she's not really that bad, as evidenced by some patients teasing her a lot, but… it looks like Michael was drunk and said something random like that.

"I'm serious! Why do you think I'm lying? You look very attractive, wifey," Michael said sincerely.

"Well… Thank you," Sarah replied curtly.

"I still think you're drunk, that's so random, Michael," Sarah continued suddenly.

"What? Do you think you are not beautiful?" asked Michael, surprised to hear that.

"No, it's not like I'm ugly, I know it's my beauty that attracted you to me," Sarah answered proudly.

Michael nodded at that. That is a fact.

"But now I'm old and even now I don't dress up. How can you say something like that? But thanks for saying it," Sarah continued.

All this time Sarah was only thinking about pursuing her career, so she had no time for self-care, nor did she have money.

So according to her, the word beautiful cannot be associated with her.

"You still look young and beautiful. Don't worry, in my eyes you are the most beautiful woman in the world," continued Michael confidently.

"Ohh… forget it! Your pick up line is very old school," said Sarah, rolling her eyes.

Michael chuckled at that, then followed by Sarah.

Before long, Sarah and Michael had finished their main course and their drinks.

The two of them looked more relaxed after drinking a glass of wine.

"It's beautiful," Sarah murmured, taking in the view of the city beside her. She never got tired of the sight.

Michael smiled at that, he could feel that he and Sarah had become a little closer tonight.

He was grateful to have done this and wondered if Sarah felt the same way.

Just as Michael was about to open his mouth, suddenly the waiter had come back with their desserts.

"Chocolate cake!" Sarah said excitedly when she saw the dessert.

Michael smiled at his wife's antics, grateful that she chose chocolate cake as their dessert menu.

It is one of Sarah's favorite foods.

"Ohh!! This is so delicious!" Sarah's eyes opened wide when she tasted the cake.

"Where did you buy it? We still have some, right?" Sarah asked, taking another bite of her chocolate cake.

She only got a piece and Sarah still wanted to eat more of it.

"No, it's made by the chef's."

Sarah, who had been excited, immediately looked sad when she heard that. Too bad she could only eat a piece of this delicious cake.

"You can eat mine," Michael said, pushing his plate away.

Sarah's eyes immediately lit up hearing that

"Really?"

Michael nodded.

"You know I don't really like chocolate," Michael replied.

Sarah then immediately pulled Michael's plate closer to her.

Michael then leaned forward and supported his chin with his hand to look at Sarah's face who was enjoying his meal.

His wife looked very happy and like a child, making Michael grateful for doing this.

"Wifey!" called Michael when Sarah had finished her dessert.

"Yes?"

"Tonight… how is it? Do you like it?" Michael asked with a smile.

He could have guessed it from the look on Sarah's face, but Michael wanted to hear her compliment firsthand.

Sarah nodded.

"It's so perfect. I love it. But maybe next time you can make me wear a dress?" Sarah said giving her honest opinion. She really liked tonight.

"I really didn't expect us to have dinner like this dressed like this," Sarah continued.

Michael smiled when he heard next time word from his wife's lips. That means Sarah loves it and wants to do it again.

"Okay. Next time I'll do well."

"I'll be looking forward to it," Sarah replied with a smile and then looked back at the view of the city beside her.

"Wifey," Michael called.

"Actually… I'm not doing this just for dinner. I have something to say."
