Chapter - 12

Alex's POV

I pulled the car towards the parking lot. I looked at azura who looked like she was thinking something and I also knew what she was thinking about.

Phoenix calling me Papa.

It was not a surprise he called me Papa after what happened yesterday.

Flashback

'Phoenix, Azura told me that you loved watching soccer....' , I said parking the car.

'Yes, sir', He replied.

It was no doubt that azura bought him up. He respected his elders. He was honest with others. At the end he was just a great child that everyone would come to love.

'So... You want to look where we are?', I asked.

Though I was a little nervous from inside but I knew he would love it.

It didn't take long for him to open the door and run outside as I followed from behind.

His expression was to die for. His eyes glistening with joy and excitement, his mouth hanging in shock and his cheeks red as he blushed furiously.

'OMG! It's FCB vs Real Madrid', He screamed. ' Two of my favorite teams.'

'So, who are you going to support buddy.', I said patting his head.

'It's hard.. I love them both.', He whined making me laugh.

'Okay then let's go inside buddy.', I said as we walked towards the entrance.

'Where is our seat sir?', He questioned me.

'Front row. Near the ground.'

As soon as I said that he started ranting out how amazing it was and how he would be able to watch them from near etc.  It was just adorable.

'Buddy this is our seat.', I said as soon as we reached their.

I looked at the couple sitting next to us.

Joshua and Lauren.

The people who broke my azura's heart.

When I asked azura to be my girlfriend, I did a background check on her past husband also and found about this whole messed up situation.

But this was not going to stop me from pursuing azura.

She was mine and mine alone.

Joushua and I had met before in some project meeting and I must tell you, you won't find a guy as conceinted as Joshua in the world.

He had a silver spoon in his mouth from birth. A spoilt brat I must say.

'Mr. Woodwords, How are you?' , He asked as soon as he saw me standing up.

'Better than you.', i muttered under my breath.

' What?', He asked looking confused.

' I am fine Joshua. How are you?', I said putting my blank face.

'Fine as always.', He said looking behind my legs where Phoenix was hiding. 'And who might this little guy here be?' 

'My son.', I said making him and Phoenix look at me in shock.
