Judas kiss

Chapter 11 -- Douze.

This was what Della had been dreading the whole week ;sitting on a table across her ex-husband and son. Leondre seemed excited. This was all for him, only for him. Andre wanted to talk to Della about their son in fact he wanted to talk about more than just that with her. As for Della she just wanted to discuss only about her son and co-parenting.

Della looked at the mansion she once stayed in, nothing had changed much. The same way she had her flowers around the yard is the same way it was, still well maintained. She always thought maybe Andre would rip them out judging by the way he was so angry even hearing her name or even seeing her at the time. The same anger made him lay a hand on his woman when she tried to tell him about their baby.

"Woah! Is this Mister Andre's house?" Leo said in awe.

"Yes, that's your father's house now if you follow me. He is expecting you inside.." Albane Gauthier the Butler spoke in a professional tone.

"That's so cool, like super cool!" Leo was amazed by how huge the house was. As for Della she felt like she was visiting her haunted past that she never wanted to remember but she had to do it for her son. They followed Albane up to the front door. The garden was surrounded with Roman and Greek Statues. Andre and Della had many things in common and aesthetic art was one of them. The difference was Andre bought everything he thought was beautiful and Della captured it in her heart as it made her feel what hidden meaning was behind it.

"Ma'am, I will leave you with Marta." Albane said giving them a brief nod. Marta's eyes were suddenly glossy from tears, she was in forties and was very much close to Della once upon a time.

"Della is that you?" She asked clearly shocked and but more so happy.

"Uhm yes." Della returned the gesture, Leo looked at both of them weirdly as they hugged each other tightly.

"And who is this young man?" Marta asked after pulling away from their embrace.

"That's Leondre... my son." Della let out a proud smile.

"Oh my goodness. Is he?" Marta asked with her hand on her mouth.

"Yes, he is." Andre's son. Della said not proud of that fact in anyway.

"He is so handsome like his father. Oh Della, I missed you so much and I'm glad you are coming back home. Andre has been miserable and—" Marta rumbled on and on in Spanish but Della cut her off with a smile.

"No no no, I'm not here for that." She let out a sigh. Leo was looking around the mansion with the huge ceilings and large glass doors. The two women talking didn't even realize that he had went out of site.

Andre was making his way downstairs because he heard the most mesmerizing voice and her laugh made him flutter inside. He never thought that he would have her again in their safe haven. Not after everything he had put her through. When she agreed to bring Leo, he knew that this was his opportunity to make things right. By things right... everything right.

"Mister Andre— i mean dad." Leo sidled awkwardly. He had been touching things near the fire place and he knew his mom would scold him for doing that in someone's house.

"Hey little man." Andre smiled broadly and Leo ran to hug him. Andre lifted him up and higher with his height.

Leo giggled.

"Where is your mom ?" Andre asked putting him down.

"She is talking to that lady. You know when mama starts speaking in Spanish she never finishes." Leo said making his father look at him in awe.
