Jude came down at the sound of the bell.
"Yes, Papa?" he asked.

*Philippe smiled at the sound of his son's voice. Though, it was a moment before he could speak.*
"Now Jude, have you not always wished to meet your mother?"

*Jude. She hadn't seen him in so long...*
Look how he's grown. He looks so much like his father.
*The same hair, the same nose, even the way the boy smiled. All Philippe. Jude had his mother's exotic eyes, which left no doubt as to who his mother could be.
He was just as how Sorelli imagined he'd look*
Oh, god, how I hope I can be for him what I have not before.

*Before Jude could even glance her way, Becca had suddenly paled, turned, and fled the room in silence.*

*Though he heard someone leave Philippe did not turn round. He smiled down at his son.*
"Your mother is here. She really wishes to meet you."

*Sorelli turned sad eyes in the direction Rebecca had gone, but she quickly returned her attention to Jude and Philippe. She couldn't help the other woman.
Instead, she gave Jude an almost shy smile*
"Hello, Jude."

Jude stepped closer to the woman and looked up at her with wide eyes.
"You're my mother?" he asked quietly.

*She nodded. She shouldn't feel shy. This was her son*
"Yes, Jude. I...I've been wanting to meet you for a long time now."

"M-me too." He stepped a little closer and looked as if he wanted to hug her, but then he looked back at Rebecca and Philippe. They'd been so good to him for so long. He wanted to find out what his mother was like, but he didn't want to hurt his Mama and Papa. He frowned, his inner conflict evident in his little face.

*She wanted to hug him, too, but seeing his hesitation she held back. She didn't want to push anything on him*
"I'm sorry I couldn't come sooner." She said softly.
"There...there was a lot of hard things to do first."

He nodded. "That's okay," he said, smiling a little bit. "You're here now."

*She smiled a bit more naturally*
"Well, we've got a lot to talk about, hmm? Like..."
*She thought for a moment*
"...what's your favorite game?"

"Hide 'n' seek," he replied with a grin.

"Ohh, I like that one. It makes people think. "

*Philippe imagined it was going well by the sound of their voices. He smiled, a little sadly to himself.*
