Cohabitation With My Ex-Husband

"Is that even a relationship?" Steve laughed mockingly then covered his face with both hands.

He didn't know if his relationship with Sarah could be considered a relationship. They only spent one night together, then… it was over.

Then, is it some kind of one night stand?

Steve laughed again, he didn't expect his relationship to turn out like this.

After feeling a little calmer, Steve drove his car to his apartment.

Actually he needed alcohol right now. He just got dumped by a woman. His love did not work out.

However, tomorrow he has to go back to work. He had made many mistakes at work and Steve was starting to feel bad for his friends.

So here Steve is now, in his bed staring at his ugly ceiling. Hope that he can fall asleep soon and forget what happened tonight.

"Oh yeah, I also have to contact Anna. She's waiting for my decision," Steve muttered under his breath as his mind suddenly thought of the woman.

He knew that this wasn't the time to be thinking about other women after what had just happened to him, but even though she looked indifferent, Anna must have been waiting to hear from him.

Steve then immediately took his cellphone and dialed the number of the woman he called three days ago.

"Hello," Steve said when the call was connected.

"Yes."

Anna, who was sitting with someone else having her hair styled for a photo shoot, held her breath when Steve just kept quiet. Unknowingly her hands felt cold. Will the man bring bad news for her?

Steve sighed, somehow he was having a hard time putting together the words right now. In the end, he decided to just say it as it is.

"She dumped me," Steve said quietly.

"She made a good decision. It seems that woman is not as bad as I thought," replied Anna who still sounded indifferent.

Steve snorted.

"Yeah, I just wanted to tell you that. Then..." said Steve who wanted to immediately hang up the call.

"Let's meet next week," said Anna quickly.

"Eh? No. I didn't contact you because of your offer at that time. I still feel it's inappropriate to do so, and…"

"Like I said, meet me five times. If you don't want to, I'll go to the hospital and let your name appear in the media. Why do you think I gave you one week?"

Steve sighed when he heard Anna's words. He had never met a woman like this at all, and to be honest this made him a little scared of her audacity.

"It seems you have understood. Then, see you next week, Steve." After saying that, Anna hung up the phone.

Unknowingly, her lips formed a smile. She knew she shouldn't be happy after what happened to Steve, but she couldn't help but smile. She has her chance!

Besides Steve, there is a man who also looks very messy and spends every night in a bar.

After being rejected by Sarah, Michael really seemed to have lost his life. He really regretted it.

If he hadn't misunderstood, and hadn't signed those stupid divorce papers, he and Sarah wouldn't be like this.

Michael's feelings of regret only grew when he visited his father and told him what had happened to him and Sarah..

His father scolded him, as had happened when he said they were divorced, and his father told him he wanted to do surgery because of Sarah.

Things that Michael could not do at that time. Before the accident, he had a fight with his father because his father didn't want surgery no matter what. However, Sarah managed to get his father to do it.

He had just lost a very precious woman!

A few days later…

"Sarah…"

Sarah, who was tidying her things, turned her head towards the open door of her room when she heard someone calling her name and knocking on the door. It was Teresa. Sarah then invited the woman to enter.

"You really have to go? I'm sorry I called the guy. I thought you two were still married, I…"

"Mother Teresa," Sarah interrupted and took her hand.

"You can stay here. You don't have to go. If anyone was looking for you, I would have said you weren't here," said Teresa then looked at Sarah's open suitcase.

A few days ago Sarah did leave this orphanage and returned with a suitcase, which contained her belongings from her apartment.

Sarah squeezed the old woman's hand, then smiled and shook her head.

"A lot of things have happened here, Mother. I need a new atmosphere. Starting my new life," Sarah said softly.

"But… you can't be alone, Sarah. Especially now that you're pregnant," said Teresa, still in argument. Sarah had indeed told her about her relationship with Michael, and that she was now pregnant. However, she never told who the father of her baby was.

"My decision is made, Mother. If you want to help me, how about helping me pack?" Sarah asked with a smile.

Teresa just sighed then finally started to help the woman. She forgot that Sarah was stubborn. When she forbade Sarah to take the scholarship she got, the woman insisted on taking it and ran away from the orphanage.

Nothing can stop that woman!

A few days later.

London International Airport

Sarah looked in one direction, trying to find the person she was waiting for, then looked back at her watch. Her face looked a little disappointed. It seemed the person she was waiting for couldn't come.

The announcement at the airport that the plane she was going to board was leaving soon woke Sarah up. The woman then turned to the old woman who accompanied her to come here.

The only person who came with her.

"Mother Teresa," Sarah said, then immediately approached the woman and hugged her.

The old woman's tears finally broke when she realized that they would soon be separated, she kept telling Sarah to take care of her health, making Sarah who didn't want to cry, finally cry.

"Then ... I'll go first," said Sarah letting go of her hug and then wiped her tears and tried to smile. Her hand then immediately grabbed her suitcase and prepared to leave immediately.

"Sarah!!!!"

Sarah's footsteps immediately stopped when she heard someone screaming her name. Her head then immediately turned to the source of the voice, and she could see someone running towards jer.

"Steve!" said Sarah in surprise.

Steve struggled to catch his breath when he finally arrived near Sarah. He had never run like that before. Even when he was in the hospital.

"I don't have much time, Steve. Thank you for coming," said Sarah who was really touched.

Even though she had rejected the man, Steve still contacted her and wanted to see her to the airport. He was also acting like usual, like a friend.

Steve then immediately walked over and hugged Sarah, he knew he shouldn't have done this, but he would regret it if he didn't hug her.

Sarah was a little taken aback, but she still returned the hug.

"Call me later. I promise I'll still act like a friend, so keep in touch," Steve whispered in Sarah's ear in a hoarse voice before finally letting go of his embrace.

Sarah nodded, her hands then wiped the tears that almost fell down her cheeks.

"Then ... I'll go first," Sarah said then waved her hand at the two people who came to escort her and immediately turned her body and walked away without looking at the two people again.

Sarah closed her eyes, remembering the events that had happened in this town. She then opened her eyes and her facial expression looked different, happier and more excited.

"Goodbye, London."

*End*

Just kidding!
