A Couple of Ex
61.

That morning he went to the hospital cafe, intending to buy a stock of snacks for the twins, a cappuccino for himself, and fruit juice for Alex.

It felt like some days he was so relaxed, not much he did, just accompanied the twins in the hospital, because he was on leave, and his practice schedule was being transferred to Anthony's doctor.

William Medical Center Jakarta, a lot of changes in the infrastructure side, the service for patients has also been well-systemed, although the number of patients is booming, but not too many queues here and there, here, surely Richard is working hard to fix all this.

He remembered Richard, he had not even called his brother, but it seemed that Richard already knew that he was in Indonesia now, because yesterday afternoon Anna's mother had met him in the hospital.

After getting everything she ordered, Stella decides to return to Kevin's room, which is now a halfway house for Alex, herself, and the children.

Stella deliberately took a detour, in order to all exercise lightly, but she seemed to feel the wrong way, because the road she passed was a special path to the office of the director of the hospital, because, richard's sister's room.

Stella turned around, trying to find another way, but her steps stopped, and when she saw Richard standing at the end of the hall, the surprised Stella stopped her steps.

Richard walked up to him, he stopped when their distance was near.

"Why turn?" 

"Sorry brother, I think I'm going the wrong way."

"Come in, we're talking inside," 

"In the park alone, brother, the air is fresher."

"All right, let's go to the park." 

They sit on park benches, enjoying the breeze of the morning and the sunshine that still feels warm on the skin.

"How's Kevin doing?" 

"It's better, brother, he can also freely move, when compared to yesterday." 

"Thank God." Richard breathed a sigh of relief. "How are you doing? Are you okay too?" 

"Yes, I'm fine."

"Are you happy now? Because you can hug the twins?"

Stella nodded.

"Alex has already started to act." 

"I mean brother?" 

"Alex didn't tell you?"

Stella looked at Richard.

"He's recovered Andre's name, your son's back to Geraldy."

Stella gave a small smile, "from the beginning they did belong to the Geraldy family."

"Then what about you? Are you going back to him?" 

"I haven't decided brother, I'm still trying to convince my heart, I think I'm still afraid of hurting sister."

"That's one of the reasons brother kept you away from him, including changing your identity."

Stella widened her eyes. "So all this time?" 

Both dewy eyes of Stella stared at the face of her eldest sister, born the youngest in her family, making Stella receive so much love from her parents and her two older siblings.

"You know, papa loves you so much, I think that's why I asked you to practice taekwondo, so that you can take care of yourself, if there's a guy who hurts you, you can get up and fight back, so you can take care of yourself, instead of crying in the corner of the room, because that's where your pride is at stake."

Stella looked back at Richard with a pushy look, "sister … " 

"If you're ready to tell me, I'll recover your identity immediately, go back to Alex if you still love and expect him, but remember one thing, if Alex hurts you again, then, don't be weak and quiet, you have to fight."

Stella wiped her tears, she was moved it turned out that she had been bad at her brother, then Stella hugged Richard tightly and cried on his eldest brother's chest.

"Thank you for making me the current Stella,"

Richard hugged his other sister.

"Why are you guys having a family reunion without taking me?" Suddenly a voice surprised them.

Stella turned her head, "when did you work here? Don't you want to stay in London to wait for the girl you love?" Stella rebukes her twin brother Steven.

"What can I do, my sister told me to go home, because if I continue there my mother will also continue to settle there, and also pity my mother for having to be away from her two grandchildren." Steven casually ransacked the contents of Stella's plastic bag, picked out some bread and started eating it.

"Hey ... it belongs to the twins, why did you eat it?" Stella Tegur.

"Why are you so stingy, I'm hungry, I haven't had time to eat breakfast, and they're not babies who will cry all day." 

Eventually Stella also let the twins snack spent by Steven, even Alex's juice was in his drink, so that later he can buy it again.

In retrospect, Stella recalled that when she and Steven were in primary school, Steven preferred to eat from Stella's lunchbox, rather than from her own lunch box, whereas Anna's mother always gave them the same provisions, he said, that's why now Stella can only resign when Steven again ate bread and some snacks for the twins.

"Why have you loved eating my food?" Stella's question is fierce.

"I always felt like you loved me more, so I liked to take whatever mom prepared for you." 

Stella raised her eyebrows, really surprised when she heard what her twin sister said, after becoming a mother, Stella always felt her affection for the twins was just as great, not differentiating from each other, so where did that ridiculous thought come from?, where was such a loving mother.

"Come on, I want to get acquainted with Kevin, I have surgery in 1 hour."

Stella got up, "During Jakarta, can you bring Kevin to our house?" Richard asked, there was a longing stare there, Stella knew, Richard must have missed Kevin so much, Kevin was very sticky to his older brother, especially when Stella was busy caring for Andre in the hospital.

"Well, I'll ask Kevin, I hope he doesn't mind." 

Stella takes Steven back to the cafe, buying what her twin sister had eaten.

As they were about to return to the twins' room, someone greeted them, "doctor Steven?"

"Oh Sister Anin." Answer Steven.

"Doctor, I'd like to remind you of your surgery schedule, one more hour." 

"Well, thank you for reminding me, I'd like to visit my niece for a minute, before I go to the operating room,"

Sister Anim nodded, "well doc, I'll call you as soon as the operating room is ready, please sign this file first doc," Sister Anin handed over the patient documents that Steven had to sign immediately.

"Oh yes, sister, this is my twin sister, Doctor Risa." 

Sister Anin nodded kindly, she reached out to Stella, the two of them shook hands, just as not knowing that there was Alexander's name among them.
