"I know you have a lot of questions going on in your mind . But just hear me out first you can ask me questions later on . "I nodded . She continued not looking at me."I want you to take care of something for me , cherish it for me . " She took a deep breath , and looked at me in eye with determination and the words which she said , I knew I was not going to forget .

"I want you to look After our son."

_Now _

Still Bruce's pov

I was shocked to my core maybe a bit angry at the fact that she kept my son away from me . I didn't know what to think of . I have a son whom I don't know of .I wanted to confirm it so I asked," So you are saying I have a son that I didn't know of ?" Sally looked at me , and all I can see was sadness and anger . She gave a firm and witty, "Well that's what I just said .Bruce I know I should have told you , you have every right to be angry with me ." just as I opened my mouth to reply but she cut me off.

" But just hear me out,ok . I thought that if you knew , you would make sure that you have our son's custody and you will take him away from me . You don't know how much our son means to me . He is my only family . I love him so much that I can never bare to leave him alone ."

" But my time on earth is coming to an end . The fate's have decided to cut my string . But I amworried about my son. What will happen to my son, after I die? I don't want him to go in the foster system and get lost like I was, after my uncle's death . I don't want him to suffer because of me . "

"So what do you want me to do?" I asked , already knowing what she was asking for ." You know what to do . I just want to inform you that 'I have written in my will that if in case I die and if my son is not of a legal adult age then after me his custody should go to his father Bruce Wayne and he shall take care of him.' I know you can do it that's why I have come to you . I don't trust anyone else with my son's life . I know you will keep him safe ."

I thought thoroughly about it that this would be a great chance to know my son and introduce him to my family regardless of them being dysfunctional . I want to do the best for him because he is my flesh and blood and adding him won't change many thing . Just I have to worry about Damien's reaction . I just knew that I cannot say no to a mother's plea . Is it okay to accept this plea as it will change our son's entire life?

" Do you really want to this , this will end up changing his entire life? Not to mention that he will not be happy with you for hiding the fact that his father is alive and has a family . "

Sally looked crestfallen and said " I really don't want to do it too, you know . But it's the best choice I have . You and your children can really help him get over me and move on with his life . As you have helped all those children by taking them in and loving them like a father . You all will give him a family which I was unable provide him . I am not happy about it too , but I want him to be with people who will love him."

"Alright , I agree with your terms only if you agree with mine."

" Okay , so what are your terms ? " She said in a cold voice but her curiousity betrayed .

" That you should tell him every thing and that he will stay with us after you umm... pass away and let me be there when you do so. That way I can meet him too . I want to personally introduce him to my children before he comes to live with us . I also would want to know few things about him before hand . Shall we talk about it now ?" I asked . My fatherly side coming out , who wanted to know more about our son .

" So what do you want to know about him ? " Sally's voice held that mother's pride which my mother had .

"Let's start from the beginning , what's his name? "

"Perseus Achilles Jackson goes by Percy "

"How old ?"

"11 years old , favourite colour blue that's all you need to know about him . I will leave something for you to ask when you meet him"

" Does he know that I am his father ? " I asked timidly.

" No , I have not told . He does not know, I never thought that this kind of situation will arise . Gods how am I going to explain it to him when he comes back ." "come back from where ? " " Hmm.. , ohh you don't know do you , oh well I forgot to mention that he is at the summer camp where phone is not allowed . And I thought it would be better if we talk about this face to face . "

"so have you told him about your condition ". "No , I haven't . You don't know Percy , if he would have found out he would never leave me alone . Will not let me do anything and will follow me every where like a duckling following his mother . He will start acting like an adult , I don't want to take his childhood away . That's why I am asking you to take his custody , be the father he needs . "

"Ok so when are you going to tell him. " " I plan to tell him this weekend . I will send a message to his camp and ask him to come back home ."

"Call me when he comes home , I would like to see him , and I think it would be good if I am there to explainmyside as well "

"That's great I will call you a day before he comes back , so you have enough time come up with an explanation "

"So here's my number , message me your address "

"Thank you"

"Your most welcome"
