A Couple of Ex
37

That afternoon as he wished, Alex waited at Kevin's school gate, The meeting was over early, so he could drive Dimas away to get ready for Singapore, and Alex could see Kevin soon.

International School has changed a lot since Alex graduated from there, the gate has been renovated and is now equipped with many CCTV, to minimize students who want to escape from the school.

Alex smiled to himself when passing through the fence not far from the main gate, where he and Stella first met, arriving he felt his stomach, as if the former elbow Stella used to feel, 'how could a girl possibly have such a powerful blow?' alex thought, that's why he won the gold medal at the POS taekwondo match at that time.

Hah those memories actually made his chest throbbing pain, he actually stopped being unable to step next to the building, where he slipped back into the dorm after escaping, afraid of his longing feelings, he was unable to step next to the building, where he slipped back into the dormitory after escaping, Alex turned back towards the main gate, school hours were just a few minutes away.

As the afternoon breeze swept through the leaves, the time passed so quickly, he was still enjoying his teenage years at this school, four years after graduation, he was in a match with Stella, and it turns out that the household only lasted two years, his precious period as a man and as the head of the household, it was swept away by a storm because of his own selfishness.

Often Alex thinks, whether Kevin will forgive him, if he knows the real cause of the divorce of his parents is because of the papi he was so proud of, that's why until this moment Alex did not dare to be frank with Kevin why his mommy did not come back, not because mommy did not miss him, but her mommy no longer wants to meet the painful past.

The school bell rang, before long the students ran out of the school gate, Andre and some of his friends seemed to laugh loudly, some of the students had been waited for by the driver or their mothers, he said, Andre seemed confused looking for a driver who used to pick him up when he came home from school, he looked panicked, if the driver did not pick him up he would not be able to go home, because he had not memorized the streets of Jakarta.

But the panic disappeared for a moment, when he saw Alex waving from across the street, "the fire .. "he cried cheerfully running towards the car where Alex was waiting.

Andre immediately hugged Alex tightly, finally one of his wishes realized, wanted to be picked up daddy when he came home from school, again he inhaled the scent of the body of the man he missed so much, Alex did not hesitate to shower Andre's head with a kiss.

"Tumben papi pick up,"

"Yes, let's go to the mall"

Andre nodded enthusiastically, then walked around the car to open the door.

"Is there anything pliers fun? why do you keep smiling?"

"I'm just happy, because papi picked me up"

The short answer that was enough to make Alex touched, indeed all this time who always picked up Kevin was, Dimas or their driver, for some reason since returning from Switzerland he felt a different feeling, he felt different, including the desire to pick Kevin up to school.

"I'm sorry papi well, because papi is always busy."

"But papa pi, if papi is not busy working, where maybe I have the nickname of the son of the sultan who has been rich since birth."

"Mahaha ..." Alex laughed loudly, how could a simple sentence Kevin could make him not feel too guilty, because often leave him for work.

Andre laughed merrily, suddenly his laughter stopped, while passing through a Bakery shop, he remembered the Japanese soft cake that he tasted yesterday, the soft tart given by his caregiver was very tempting, it makes him want to eat it again.

"Papi .. I want it .. "kevin points to the Will Bakery shop.

"Do you want a cake?"

Yes, yesterday my sister Ima bought me a soft cake from the store, now I want it again."

"Well, soft cake for the son of the sultan." Alex turned back the car.

The pastry shop had been around for a long time, and Alex and his family even knew Wilona, the owner of the Bakery, because Mama Lani was their loyal customer.

The sound of bells rang out when Alex shifted the entrance, the atmosphere was comfortable and calm, really felt, Alex's gaze circulated throughout the room, then immediately walked closer to the storefront.

The woman's hand stretched out to Alex's shoulder.

Alex, who felt his shoulder touched by someone, turned his head, and stared in disbelief, stunned for a moment "mmm .. ma .. mama?" that sentence was painstakingly uttered from his lips.

The middle-aged woman looked at him with glassy eyes, "How are you, Alex, long time you haven't seen you,"

While Andre who was beside Alex arrived to hide himself, not for what, he was afraid of being caught exchanging places with Kevin.

"Good ma ... " Answer Alex "mama again in Jakarta? when back?"

"It's not long, it's only been about two weeks" Anna replied.

Well she's Anna Nathaniel's mom, Stella's mom, Alex's ex-in-law.

"Is he Kevin?" greet Anna to the figure now hiding behind Alex's back.

"Ah .. yes, this is Kevin." Alex replied, while pulling Andre's arm that looked embarrassed, Andre also showed his face.

Anna hugged her granddaughter, rubbed kevin's back for a moment, as was her habit when hugging Andre, "It's been so big, mama even only met him when she was a baby," Anna's eyes now shed tears.

"Kevin, this is Grand Mama" Anna said in her arms.

"Grand mom?" Andre pura asked.

"He's just like oma, he's your mommy's mommy." Alex explains.

Andre just nodded, and smiled stiffly, "Wire, what if grand mama knows my disguise?" Andre spoke in his heart.

"Come ma, Nisa's done," Nisa who came from behind seemed surprised "Oh kevin well..wah it's been great apparently, aunty has not seen you for a long time," Nisa scrambled Kevin's hair, Kevin, wah, actually, he really wanted to hug his nephew, but he could not imagine Richard's wrath.

"Ah yes .." with a heavy heart Anna let go of her embrace, "Next time we meet again well?" order Anna when she's about to leave.

"Be careful, and take care of your health." Alex said when Anna arrived to give him a hug.

"Yes, you are also." Anna replies when she breaks her arms.

Andre waved as Anna and Nisa walked towards the exit.

Alex hugged Andre's shoulder, "So buy Japanese Softcake?" Alex asked to unravel the awkwardness.

Andre smiled at Alex, "Yes pi, so."

Papi and the boy again saw the storefront where various cakes lined up.

Meanwhile, on the way back home, Anna seemed still pensive, her hunch saying, that the one she had just met was not Kevin but Andre, the look in her eyes, The expression of his face and embrace was exactly the same as Andre, well indeed Andre and Kevin are twins, but they are still two different people, does Alex not feel their differences?.

Anna sighed softly, not daring to express her doubts, before finding convincing evidence.
