A Couple of Ex

A Couple of Ex
52. Making Hoop.


Four members of the family were in the elevator that would take them down to the ground floor.


"Right mom, pity Andre, he's looking forward to meeting Belinda." 


"Don't talk recklessly" protested Andre.


"Listen mom, as long as me and papi are still here, I'll always drop off and pick up mommy, so mommy can't protest." Kevin spoke at length, Stella was just speechless without being able to protest.


I don't know why he's really like a dumb robot between his two kids.


Likewise with Alex who just smiled, seemed to enjoy the excitement of his children.


Stella glanced at Alex who was standing not far behind her, Alex just gave a smile, his shoulders lifted lazily, but seemed to enjoy the atmosphere.


I don't know what's going to happen in the next few moments.


They walk in tandem.


"And .. have you told Mr. Tom?" 


"Daddy takes care of everything mom, daddy says Mr. Tom needs a vacation." Andre replied relaxedly.


Stella was surprised, then looked at Alex's face which remained flat "Should I explain?" His question with a songong face did not feel guilty, had messed up the daily habits of his ex-wife.


"Yes" 


"I told Mr. Tom to take a vacation, because as long as I'm here, his services aren't needed, I've given him a bonus, too, so you take it easy ." 


Stella rolled her eyeballs lazily., The feeling was suddenly bad, this ex-husband might make a tantrum.


Back he was still enjoying the morning atmosphere, passing people who would move as usual, enjoying the boisterous voice of children, and ignoring the pounding of his heart considering the former lurking behind his back.


While Alex seemed not much different from his ex-wife, finally .... it was not in vain he waited, now God kindly gave him a happy with his children, his son, and his son, although his son's mommy has not officially returned to be his wife, but her silence gives Stella a lot of hope.


Arriving in front of the main lobby, Stella broke away from her two sons. "Enough, up here, mommy has to see some patients, right away," 


"No mom, we have to make sure mommy goes inside." Reject Kevin.


Alex smiled at Kevin's actions, if this is not necessary to act a lot, to get close to Stella, because it seems that the child has been a few steps ahead.


Arriving at the main lobby, Stella was waiting for her best friend Jimmy's doctor.


Without needing to tell the story, Jimmy's doctor immediately recognized Stella's two children.


"Good morning doctor Risa," said doctor Jimmy, giving a cappuccino to Stella.


"Good morning, Doctor Jimmy." Stella answers Jimmy's doctor's greeting, his face sparkles when Jimmy's doctor gives him a glass of his favorite cappuccino, Stella and Jimmy's doctor have been friends for a long time, and for them to treat each other a glass of coffee is also a common habit, but not with Alex looking at him with an unusual look.


"Oh wow .. they are really similar," Doctor Jimmy looked at the faces of Kevin and Andre, then chatted with each other for a moment, starting from the tragedy of chocolate milk, now Kevin became familiar with Doctor Jimmy.


As Jimmy's doctor watches the twins' faces, Alex casually takes over the cappucino in Stella's grasp, then drinks it, "Hey is mine? watch your stomach get nauseous." 


"No problem, from now on you can't accept gifts from other men than me." 


"But .. Your stomach can be problematic" Stella said worriedly.


"Haiiiiisss .. You, do not harm your own body." Stella tries to snatch the coffee from Alex's grasp.


"In addition, if my body is wretched, or sick, I don't have to worry, all I have to do is go to my ex-wife, don't you think?" 


"That's a silly reason, brother, health is not a toy that can be at stake at any time," Stella knew very well Alex's stomach could not compromise with anything other than fruits in the morning, but Alex as if he did not care, and now raised his hands high, Stella tried to snatch the glass, but Alex was too high for her, so that Stella was just in Alex's arms.


The interaction was not separated from the observation of doctors Jimmy and their two children, even some resident doctors who had been waiting for the presence of Stella also witnessed it.


No doubt, whispers began to be created, various speculations began to appear, Risa doctor who is usually efficient and effective, never seen intimate with men, and she was not, but what happened this morning was unexpected. 


"Mom ... Dad ... What are you doing?" Ask Andre.


Stella's face flushed with embarrassment .. she rushed away from Alex.


Needless to say, Jimmy's doctor understood that the man who drank Stella's coffee was her ex-husband, because of the twins' resemblance to her.


"Yes you go, mommy is waiting for the patient," Stella turned around with a face of shame, because so early in the hospital, she had become a spectacle, and worse, even worse, maybe it will be the gossip of the nurses and resident doctors.


Alex seemed to stumble into his smile looking at Stella's facial expression, "doctor Jimmy, thanks for the coffee," Alex nodded kindly at Jimmy's doctor, then took the twins out of the hospital lobby.


Meanwhile, a pair of eyes staring from the 3rd floor of the hospital, she seemed to dislike the closeness of doctor Risa with her son and ex-husband, her hands now clenched firmly, he was Richard William, who was her, stella's older sister, the person behind the disappearance of Stella and Andre's true identity, turns into doctors Marisa Nathaniel and Andre Nathaniel.


A few days ago, Anna's mom said that she accidentally met Alex and Kevin at the cake shop.


"Can you stop?" Ask Anna's mom that day.


"What does mama mean?" 


"Their love, they've been separated for too long, don't you want to see Stella happy with her little family?" Ask Anna's mother gently 


"It wasn't me who destroyed their family, but Alex was the one who acted, until their families split, all I did was protect Stella so she wouldn't get hurt by her ex-husband anymore." 


"But what you've done, it's been too far, son, you can't bear to see Stella fighting alone, without a man on her side" Anna said with tears on her feet. "You wouldn't believe me if you told me who you met today."


Richard turned his face away from the pile of work he had been reading. "Who did you meet?" Ask Anna's mom 


"Mama met Alex, and .. "mama Ana's words stopped because Richard hurriedly stopped her.


"If only met Alex what's the problem." Whenever Mama can see him, I don't forbid." 


"Be quiet, can you at least wait until you're done talking," 


"Sorry ma, so who did you meet today? "


"Mama met Andre." Mama Anna answered briefly 


Richard laughed, doubting Anna's mother's words, "mom saw the wrong time." Deny Richard.


"You can't believe what your mom said, but you took care of Andre from childhood, so you're the person who knows him best, compared to Stella." Anna's mother replied in flames, "do you know what that means? God's destiny is playing a role in your brother's life, no matter how hard you try to separate them, but if God still wants to get them together, all your efforts will only be in vain." 


Richard was back to the words of Anna's mother at that time.


"Alex, it's big on you now, and it looks like I'll soon meet a formidable opponent." Mumbled.
