55. A Mama 

AZURA. 

It was the following day and after a restless night, I had gotten dressed in blue jeggings and an oversized white top. Leo had just popped over, saying it was time to talk to Corrado. There was something different about him, but I couldn‘t pinpoint what it was. He was wearing a white tank top and grey sweats. His hair was a sexy mess and it was obvious he had been running his hand through it a lot, and he looked a bit pale. But there was something else... 

Did he even get any sleep? He had first taken Corrado to the garden, and I had seen him crouching in front of him and, from what I could make out, apologising for last night. Corrado had stood with his arms crossed, looking displeased, before hugging him and smiling. 

Children really were so innocent... 

They came in soon after, and Leo looked at me. 

“Shall we?” 

“Sure.” I said, turning away from him and allowing him to lead the way

“It‘s so fucking hot.” Leo muttered as the three of us headed to the lounge. 4 

‘Have you even planned what we‘ll say?‘ I asked him through the link. I really didn‘t want to do this, but I knew for Corrado I would. At least he was letting Corrado know that he would be a big brother, despite not really seeming to care about seeing this baby again. 

No. 

I frowned slightly but said nothing, not knowing how this was going to play out. I shut the door behind us, the airy room making the sounds of our heartbeats sound even louder. 

I didn‘t respond as I crossed my arms and Leo sat down, making Corrado stand in front of him. 

“Daddy, why are you so serious?” He asked worriedly. 

“There‘s something that I need to tell you.” You or we?Leo looked at me and I stared back emotionlessly. If he wanted help, he would have to ask for it. 

‘We‘ 

It felt like an eternity, the pain and intensity of his gaze made me look away first. 

“There‘s something that the both of us want to share... but I need you to understand ok...” 

“Ok Daddy.” He said, looking up at me. “Did you and Azura make up?” 

“Make–up?” Leo raised an eyebrow. “Because last night you argued.” He stated. 

I felt awful, so even this kid picked up on the fact something was wrong. 2
