Adrian pov*

I was making the hundred steps in front of the building not able to calm myself. I didn't close my eyes for the all night thinking. What will I say?

'Stop to be a coward Adrian' I said to myself I entered the building and to the elevator heading to the 5th floors.

Once in front of the apartment I took a deep breath and knocked. And here she is in front of me with a smile which instantly faded when she saw me. We stayed still looking at each other for I don't know how many minutes. Her eyes were holding so much emotion. I decided to break the silence

"Hello Elissa"

Silence

I cleared my throat and spoke again not really knowing what to say

"H-how are you"

She was about to close the door at my face when I stopped her with my foot

"I want to talk to you... please" I pleaded

"About what" she asked

"May I come in first" I said softly

Staring at me for a moment she opened the door and let me enter

The apartment is small but cute you feel warm that you can only feel when you are at home. Once in the living room which was opened to the kitchen I saw my little boy sitting and eating something like a chocolate mousse his mouth was full with chocolate and his cheek as well. I smiled at this view he is so cute. Elissa followed my gaze and went to him

"Do you finish baby" She asked him

"Yes mum"

"Let me clean you then honey"

I just kept silent looking at them, they are so beautiful. Lucas came to me following by his mother

"Hello Mister"

I chuckled and replied

"Hello little one"

"Who is he mum?"

Elissa stared at me clearly embarrassed so I kneeled in front of him and replied instead

"I am Adrian"

"Adrian?"

"Huumm"

"My middle name is Adrian to" He said with a smile

My heart jumped from its place hearing that. I stared with wide eyes at Elissa who looked away

"Really" I said

"Yes Lucas Adrian Garner"

Garner of course. Lucas had his eyes on me so I spoke quickly

"Nice to meet you Lucas" I said and ruffled his hair keeping my eyes on his. He has my eyes and hair.

"Lucas baby it's time for your little nap so what about you go to the room and when I will finish I will come next to you"

"Ok mum don't stay long I am going to wait for you"

"Yes my love go now" she said tapping him gently on the buttocks. When he closed the door Elissa turned to me crossing her arms.

"I am listening to you" she said sternly.

"Ok... huum first of all I want to know how are you"

"I am fine like you see"

I felt so nervous in front of her not knowing how to start
