Cohabitation With My Ex-Husband

Sarah immediately shook her head and put one of her hands on her chest to calm herself down.

She likes Steve?

Ha! Stupid!

Looks like she's getting too carried away by now to be Steve's date tonight.

Yes! It must be so!

She could pretend she was still Michael's wife and smile sweetly in front of that bastard, and a few times, she'd often get carried away thinking she was still Michael's wife.

Right now it must be like that, she just got carried away by being Steve's date.

"Sarah?"

Sarah immediately turned when she heard Steve calling her name.

"Yes? Sorry, did you say something earlier?" Sarah asked, trying to look okay.

"It's nothing, I said it looks like a restaurant, do you want to eat there?" asked Steve who had stopped his car and pointed to the restaurant in front of him.

From the front view, the design of the restaurant looks luxurious and classy.

Sarah nodded her head, she wasn't very picky about where to eat, she even can eat in front of the street.

Steve smiled hearing that, then immediately started his car towards the restaurant.

Not long after Steve and Sarah had entered the restaurant, unlike before when they went to the wedding while Sarah hugged Steve's arm, Sarah kept her distance a little.

Well… she should think about being friends, and not date anymore, and a friend isn't going to hug her friend's arm.

A waiter immediately approached the two of them when he saw a customer coming.

After confirming that it was just the two of them, the waiter immediately ushered Steve and Sarah to their table.

The restaurant was filled with black and red, with dim lights, making it a slightly romantic atmosphere.

Steve smiled seeing that, it wasn't something he did on purpose, he didn't know this restaurant before but it seems he did the right thing.

The waiter who ushered them then gave the menu, after seeing the menu, Steve looked at Sarah.

"Would you like a drink?" Steve asked when he saw the restaurant selling alcohol.

Steve wasn't planning on drinking tonight because he had to drive, but if Sarah wanted a drink, it looked like he'd have to call a replacement driver.

"No, you have to drive. Let's just order a soda," said Sarah, who wasn't in the mood to drink alcohol.

For some reason, alcohol didn't get along well with her, with her current erratic feelings, Sarah was afraid she'd made a mistake.

Steve nodded at that, then told him his order, so did Sarah. The waiter then left the two of them.

The atmosphere then became quiet between the two of them, Sarah seemed to still have trouble looking at Steve who was sitting in front of her, she then decided to look around her.

The restaurant wasn't very crowded, it seemed because it was a weekday and it was late, there were only a few other couples apart from them.

Wait a minute! Did she just think of the word partner? Her and Steve?

Sarah cursed herself in her heart, looks like something is wrong with her tonight!

She then decided to stop looking around and look ahead. Steve's smiling face was immediately seen by her.

"Why are you smiling like an idiot like that?" Sarah asked, trying to hide her current feelings.

"It's nothing, you look very beautiful tonight," Steve said with a big smile. Finally he could see Sarah's face because he had been busy driving before, and his lips couldn't stop smiling.

Looks like tomorrow his cheeks will feel stiff from not stopping smiling tonight

Sarah snorted at that, even so, she liked it.

"That's because of the makeup done by your mother," Sarah replied, trying to think realistically.

She admits that tonight she looks really pretty, but that's because of the make-up done by Mrs Brown.

"No, you're always beautiful," Steve said softly.

Sarah chose not to answer, her heart racing again. No! It wasn't because Steve was looking at her gently and praising her with a big smile! It seems that because of the romantic atmosphere of the restaurant, not to mention there is live music and singers singing jazz songs, it makes her get carried away again!

She couldn't possibly like Steve!

No. It couldn't be like this, she had to do something to distract her!

But what should she do now?

Sarah suddenly remembered Michael, the message from Michael had not been answered by her.

Looks like Michael could be a good distraction.

Sarah then took her cellphone in her bag and looked for Michael's messages that she had not replied to.

While Steve continued to stare at Sarah, he wasn't even interested in seeing who is the singer that is singing so melodiously at the moment. His eyes only focused on one place.

After replying to Michael's message saying that she understands and writing that she loves him too, Sarah keeps her phone on her even though there's nothing for her to do right now.

Fortunately, their food arrived quickly, making Sarah quickly put her phone back in her bag and stare at her food with a hungry look.

Without waiting any longer, Sarah immediately ate her food. A small moan immediately escaped her lips when she tasted the food that spoiled hee tongue.

"Did you like the food?" Steve asked, chuckling a little at Sarah's behavior.

That woman was so adorable.

Sarah smiled shyly when she heard that, she then swallowed her food and looked at Steve who apparently hadn't touched his food.

"Yeah, the food is really good. You have to try it!" Sarah said then told Steve to immediately eat his food.

Steve nodded, he still wanted to look at Sarah, but it looked like he had to eat.

The two then ate in silence, making the atmosphere suddenly awkward.

Sarah thought she should have talked to Steve, like when they had lunch together at the hospital, they were old friends, the situation shouldn't be awkward.

"Oh yeah, how about your job? Are you adapting well?" Sarah asked, trying to make small talk.

Steve didn't answer right away, he swallowed his food first.

"Yeah, everything's fine," Steve replied curtly and took his drink.

Sarah just nodded at the short answer and then went back to eating her food. Steve didn't even ask back. Very awkward.

"Sarah," Steve called softly, causing Sarah to lift her head to look at Steve.

"Tonight… can you not discuss work?" Steve asked, his expression serious.

Sarah raised an eyebrow, slightly confused by Steve's sudden question, especially since the man looked serious.

If Steve doesn't want him to talk about work, then what topics should she talk to Steve about?

"Ah, why did you and Ellen break up?" asked Sarah, who couldn't think of anything else.

"What about you? Why did you and Michael divorced?" Steve asked back with a grin.
