The tears that Sarah was trying so hard to hold finally fell when she read the last sentence written by Michael. The man never forgot her.
If Sarah hadn't known that Michael and Anna were never engaged, Sarah probably wouldn't have given those words much thought and wouldn't have believed them.
But this ti she believed and wanted to believe those words. Had Michael never forgotten her in six years?
"Here." Suddenly Sarah saw a napkin being held out to her.
"I don't have a tissue, so you can use this," Michael said softly.
Sarah imdiately took it and began to wipe her tears, she then turned to Michael who was now looking at him with a gentle gaze. That gaze again! Why did the man keep looking at her with the sa gaze as in the past?
"I gave you that present not to make you cry. I'm sorry," Michael said quietly and felt guilty. He didn't like seeing Sarah cry at all.
Sarah imdiately shook her head, with tears still in her eyes, the woman let out a smile. "I like the present. Thank you." Sarah answered sincerely.
She would never be able to get this present anywhere else, and she would always rember and take good care of it.
"Oh. Where are the children?" Sarah asked when she realized they were alone sitting there right now.
Michael then pointed behind him, where Raphael and Gabriel were standing by the balcony railing to see the view from another place.
"Sarah," Michael called softly. Michael then swallowed his saliva because his throat suddenly felt dry.
"Yes?" said Sarah who turned to Michael and held her breath when she saw the serious expression on Michael's face.
The atmosphere between the two suddenly beca silent and the two stared at each other silently for a few seconds.
"Just like what I wrote, I hope you want to share your work as a parent with ," Michael said quietly and still kept his eyes on Sarah.
All this ti he knew it must be for Sarah but he didn't know what kind of trouble Sarah was going through. Only this ti did he find out.
How the twins always walked in different directions when they were out. How difficult it is to change the twins' clothes, not to ntion when they don't want to wear them and have to chase each other first.
That was what happened to him today, and Michael was already finding it exhausting. He had no idea how hard it was for Sarah who had endured that for six years. So this ti, he wanted to ask Sarah to share it with him.
Sarah sighed in disappointnt when she heard that. She thought Michael was going to talk about sothing else, but the man was back on the children.
"Okay, I've let you play the father role anyway," Sarah said, trying not to look like she was disappointed.
Sothing suddenly kicked Sarah's mind. What was that? Did she just say disappointed? Was she just hoping that Michael would talk about the two of them?
"I must have gone crazy! What the hell is wrong with tonight!" Sarah thought to herself.
After hearing that Michael was never engaged, she kept thinking about herself and Michael, but she also realized that she and Michael couldn't be together anymore because Mrs Collins was still around. Sarah really doesn't know what to do.
anwhile, Michael licked his dry lips. He could feel his palms wet from his nervousness tonight.
To be honest, he didn't have much experience with won, and he knew that Sarah was currently building an invisible wall with him, so Michael had to be careful with his tread and not be in a hurry.
He was afraid that if he was too aggressive with Sarah, the woman would walk away and leave him again. So he had to think carefully about what he should do to keep her from leaving when he was chasing after her.
However, tonight seems to be the right night to tell his feelings. The atmosphere seed appropriate. He'd made a surprise event for Sarah, giving her a present, though it was still lacking because there weren't any candles to make the atmosphere more romantic, but that didn't seem to matter.
"Sarah," Michael called softly. His hand then reached forward, and grabbed Sarah's hand.
Sarah was a little surprised when she felt Michael's hand being held. She could feel a familiar feeling as the hand held her hand, preventing her from pulling it back.
"Like I said. I'll never forget you, Sarah. I didn't really try hard to find you before dad gave you the inheritance, but that's because I thought you didn't want to see again," Michael said quietly.
"Six years ago, I looked for you again at the orphanage, but Teresa said you were no longer there. I also looked for you in your apartnt, and also in the hospital, in case you worked there again, but I couldn't find you."
Sarah was silent when she heard this. Teresa did tell her that Michael was looking for her, but she asked Teresa not to tell Michael about her again, because she wanted to get away from him.
"But now that I've found you, you're in front of , and my fee…"
"Mommy!"
The sound of screaming from the twins made Sarah unconsciously imdiately withdraw the hands that were being held by Michael because the two children would definitely ask why they both hold hands, and right now she couldn't answer their questions.
anwhile, Michael closed his eyes and gritted his teeth as the boys now ca to their table. Couldn't they have played alone a little longer and not bothered him and Sarah?
If it wasn't his own children, Michael would surely bury them alive!
"What is it, Raphael, Gabriel?" Sarah asked awkwardly looking at her children.
"Can we swim in the pool before taking a bath?" Raphael explained, while Gabriel behind him nodded.
"You guys want to swim… Wait, before taking a bath?" asked Sarah, noticing that there was sothing slightly odd about her son's words.
They both nodded.
"You haven't bathed yet?" asked Sarah, looking surprised.
They both nodded again.
"Uncle said we can take a bath later after dinner," Gabriel explained. He still rember what Michael said to him.
Sarah turned to Michael in disbelief. He had dressed the twins like that, and they hadn't bathed yet?
Michael just smiled guiltily at that look. For his defense, they were going to surprise Sarah, and didn't know when she would be ho. So no ti to take a bath.
"No," Sarah said firmly.
"It is late. How about we go for a swim tomorrow?" said Michael quickly when he saw the sad faces of his children. He didn't know why Sarah forbade them to swim, but he thought swimming was good.
"Really, Mommy?" asked the Twins simultaneously with sparkling eyes.
"Yes. So for now you have to take a bath first. Let's go take a bath," Michael cut in before Sarah answered and shooed the kids away.
He's currently discussing sothing serious with Sarah, so it's best if the two little puppy get out of here right away!
