A Couple of Ex
22

Seven years later

"Morning Moms ... " Andre greets Stella, she's getting ready for junior high school, with their driver Mr. Tom's.

"Morning sweet boy .." replied Stella who was still preparing with her make up.

Andre approached Stella who was still in the room, "mom. Emily." Andre handed in a notice letter from his homeroom teacher.

"Please put it in mommy's bag, mommy will read it after the hospital."

"Okay mom," Andre put the notice, into his mommy bag, without drama and lots of protests, it was all because he had memorized that the mommy was always busy in the hospital every day.

"Moms, I have to leave first, there's an appointment with Roger Smith," Andre said goodbye to Stella, not forgetting to land a kiss on Stella's cheek.

"Okay, heart be careful dear." Stella told her son.

After finishing her performance, Stella went to eat, because since she let Andre have breakfast alone, Stella bit the sandwich she made this morning, and now a big bite of vegetable sandwich, now a big bite of vegetable sandwich, the eggs and bacon had moved into his mouth.

Every day, Miss Betty, a part-time worker, came to clean the house, so when Stella returned home at night, the house was clean and tidy.

Stella looks at her briefcase, intending to pick up a medical journal for her to read before the surgery later that afternoon, but Stella's gaze is fixed on a notice sheet from Mrs. Emily, Stella, read the letter before she was too busy, and missed reading the information, apparently an Inter-school visit, for the mission of art, culture, language and sport, in a neighboring country, for information on where the destination country, will be informed in a few days "Oh well ..." Stella immediately signed the license on page 2, so that Andre could become one of the participants who participated in the visit, Stella put the permit to Andre's study table.

After finishing her breakfast, Stella rushed to the hospital, the distance from her apartment to the hospital was not far, the apartment building where she lived, and the hospital building where she works is separated only by one building, the magnificent Twenty Five Hotel, owned by her ex-husband's family.

Frankly, sometimes Stella was a little was was when passing the Twenty Five Hotel, even though it had been 15 years since their divorce, Stella was still reluctant to meet her ex-husband, the former, somehow imagining it still feels awkward, what if they really meet again.

It's funny, for years her workplace side by side with where her ex-husband works, although it can be ascertained Alex is not always in Singapore, but the mystery of fate is difficult in the past, because until now Alex and Stella have not been reunited, in addition to the incident on the operating table seven years ago.

Arriving in the hospital lobby, Stella stopped by the cafe shop, ordered her favorite ice cappuccino before heading to the practice room.

"Good morning doctor Risa ... "Who's a nurse, when Stella passed the nurse's desk.

"Good morning Yuna .." replied Stella with her sweet smile.

As they walked side by side to Stella's practice room, the nurse reported the condition of several patients, whom she watched through the night.

Before making a patient visit, Stella headed to her room to put her briefcase, and now the doctor's suit and stethoscope have completed her appearance, knee-length canal dres, and long hair naturally brown, looking beautiful until the middle of the back, doctor Stella Marisa William or Marisa Nathaniel ready to start the day.

Stella rushes out, because in two hours, her practice will begin.

...✨✨✨...

The afternoon sun left a blinding orange color, looking at him made the man's heart feel peaceful, the departure of the sun seemed to give new hope to him, that tomorrow there is still hope, and the sun will be gone, well tomorrow I can still hope, maybe tomorrow I can find her, find the woman who used to love her, and now she can only hope, that one day I can say "I love you" a hundred times? thousand times? maybe even a million times a day.

"Fourteen years passed so quickly" he said sadly, not expecting God to answer his prayer.

'Is God joking with my destiny?' inwardly, if true it feels like Alex wants to smile and cry.

Alex stared at the picture figura on his desk, "where are you?" abugn.

The photo was of Stella holding Andre.

His gaze full of longing, Stella and Andre really disappeared without a trace, it has been years Alex looking for her, in every country, every medical faculty and hospital, has been, but he never met anyone named Stella Marisa William.

Alex had suspected that the disappearance of Stella and her son had something to do with Richard, but he dismissed that notion, but in recent years, he has been, richard's attitude still remains ketus and pretends not to know him, as if strengthening all his prejudices.

"Boss, here's your travel document," Dimas walked into Alex's room without permission, actually for the size of Alex's subordinates, a Dimas was brave enough to say the word even broke the rules in front of his Boss.

"Why not knock on the door, haven't I reminded you so many times?"

"Sorry boss, I forgot," Dimas reasoned, in fact he remembered, even remembered very well, but his desire to judge his boss was what made Dimas pura forget.

Only with Dimas' ignorance can Alex stretch his tension, which is why Dimas often acts as if Alex was just a friend to him.

"Forgot ...forget, don't pretend, what if I'm naked?"

"You forgot the boss, did I also include your wife, so you don't have to be ashamed in front of me." Dimas is getting more emotional Alex.

Plaque ... Alex hit Dimas on the shoulder with the Brown envelope he had been holding.

"Are you tired of living?"

"Do you know the boss, if I'm tired of living?"

Alex glared sharply at Dimas

"Why boss, don't you accept? if you don't accept, immediately fire me, so I can date and enjoy life, my life has been very boring boss," Dimas continues to babble issued his head. "years accompanying widower, years of accompanying, preparing all his needs and needs, as well as being his son's playmate, oh I'm no different from your wife."

Alex just silently heard Dimas' rant, "Have you finished talking? so you want to be free of me?"

"Very want a boss" replied Dimas expectantly.

"Don't you ever dream, all my life I'm going to lock you up by my side, your main task since long ago was only one, has there been any news?" Alex asked without taking his eyes off the documents that Dimas had just submitted.

And dimas instead of not understanding what Alex is talking about, since it used to be Dimas' main task was simply, looking for the whereabouts of the boss' ex-wife.

But Dimas is very unfortunate, because trapped between the two of them, he
