Cohabitation With My Ex-Husband

The smile never left Michael's face when he saw the figure of the woman sitting in the passenger seat beside him.

Even though she had opened herself the car door, when he had actually planned to open it for her, and was now looking out of the window, Michael was still happy.

It had been a very long time since he and Sarah had been alone in the car.

"But… isn't this too quiet?" Michael thought as Sarah didn't even look at him or utter a word.

He was happy, but wouldn't it be better if they had something to talk about on the way?

Michael then told his brain to work hard to find a topic to talk about.

It had been six years since he had last been with a woman in a car like this, so he didn't know what to talk about.

He did have a relationship with Elizabeth, but the woman was only his sex partner. He never allowed her to get into his car and sit in the passenger seat.

His principal is, that seat can only be seated by a woman who has his heart, and Elizabeth did not qualify.

"You look good in red."

Michael immediately regretted what he had just said and cursed his brain for not finding a better topic.

From everything his brain could think of, he commented on Sarah's clothes?

"..."

Michael sighed when he didn't hear any response from Sarah. Look? The topic sucks, right?

"Thanks."

Michael blinked his eyes when he heard the very low voice, before finally a smile immediately returned to his face.

Even though the woman said it quietly, but isn't this progress? At least Sarah didn't really give him a cold shoulder.

It was quiet again in the car, Michael continued to think about the topic of conversation while Sarah continued to stare out the window.

Actually, Sarah felt very awkward. She herself didn't know why she felt this awkward when she was alone with Michael in the car.

She wasn't awkward because she was alone with a guy, as evidenced by last Friday she was alone in the car with Arthur, but she didn't feel awkward at all.

Well… she doesn't know either, Sarah was confused as to why she had to be this awkward.

Is it because of the smell of car perfume that is so familiar in this car? Or because there is a figure of Michael beside her?

"Oh yeah, didn't you go to work?"

Michael's sudden question made Sarah immediately turn to the man, and saw that the man occasionally turned to look at her.

"Ah! Don't get me wrong! I thought you were going to work after the Twins left school. Isn't it?" continued Michael.

Michael praised his brain that managed to find a topic of conversation that made Sarah seem interested.

Right! Come to think of it, he's just been too busy getting close to the Twins to forget that he doesn't have any information about Sarah.

What is the woman doing now? Where does she work?

Two times Sarah hadn't gone to work over the weekend, so Michael thought maybe she was working during weekdays.

"I'm… still waiting for an interview call," Sarah answered quietly, a little unsure of herself when she said that.

To be honest, Sarah was getting desperate. She knew she shouldn't be acting like this, but it's been over a week since she applied for jobs, and no one has contacted her yet since that time.

"You haven't gotten an interview call yet?!" Michael asked subconsciously, raising his voice. His face looked very surprised.

"Eh?"

"I mean… you're the best graduate in your class. You're also doing your job really well, even coming to the hospital often even though it's not your night duty, and no hospital wants to call you?!" Michael explained, he really didn't understand at all.

"They must be crazy! Wow! How could they not want to call a surgeon as good as you?" Michael mumbled who was still surprised by that while shaking his head.

"Too bad Collins didn't build a hospital or do business with them. Wait a minute, do I have to start building a hospital?" Michael muttered to himself as he looked down the street.

Hearing no hospital call Sarah made Michael suddenly feel annoyed.

How could they do that?!

They were really stupid, unable to see a gem in front of them!

Looks like he has to start building a hospital and get Sarah to work there!

"What are you doing?" Sarah asked when she saw Michael starting to talk to himself and the look on his face was annoyed.

Michael then turned to Sarah, "Aren't you annoyed? How come no hospital called you?!"

"That's because I applied as a doctor, not a surgeon."

Michael blinked his eyes when he heard what Sarah had just said. He turned to the woman again.

"Doctor?" asked Michael with a very confused face.

"Yes!" replied Sarah trying to hold back her laughter when she saw the look on Michael's face. "If I apply as a surgeon, of course there will be many who call me. Even the hospital where father is being treated will definitely accept me again."

"Ah…" Michael opened his mouth, suddenly embarrassed. He was already annoyed that he thought no one would hire Sarah, but it turned out that she was applying to be a doctor, and not a surgeon.

Sarah's laughter finally came out when she saw the embarrassed look on Michael's face.

His face may have been very different from her boyfriend at that time, but Michael's attitude was still the same as before.

Michael, who had been embarrassed, finally smiled when he saw Sarah who suddenly laughed.

It had been a long time since he had heard her laugh, and he liked it very much.

"But… why did you apply as a doctor and not a surgeon?" Michael asked after a moment.

Sarah's laughter immediately disappeared when she heard Michael's question. She bit her lower lip, a little hesitant to tell Michael or not.

Michael had indeed been her place to tell her stories, but at that time Michael was her boyfriend, her husband.

Now she and Michael have no relationship at all besides the parents of her child.

Could she tell Michael about this? Her personal affairs?

In the end, Sarah's mouth opened and told him the reason why she applied as a doctor.

Although it was a little personal, it seemed fine to tell Michael about it.

At least he wasn't a stranger.

Michael's mouth fell open when he heard Sarah do that so she could be with the Twins.

Now it all made sense why when he went to find Sarah, and she worked as a doctor at a clinic.

Michael's heart suddenly ached when he heard that. He knew very well how much Sarah wanted to be a surgeon, it was her dream.

And because of his own stupidity, the woman had to give up her dream.
