Mamma, Nikolas is coming today isn't he Isabella asked as they went into the living room? Yes he is Gia replied. It has been a long time since has been here Isabella said. It has only been a week Gia said. Mamma can I ask you something Isabella asked? Of course Gia replied. Do you mind if I call Nikolas daddy Isabella asked? Sweetie that is a decision I am going to let you make and what ever you decide is fine with me Gia said. I just don't want to upset you Isabella said. Isabella you could never upset me Gia said as they sat down. I am glad, because I love you so much Isabella said. And I love you and I always will Gia said as there was a knock at the door.
Hello Gia, Nikolas said as she opened the door to him. Please come in Gia said as they went inside. Hi Nikolas, Isabella said as she walked up to him. Well hello, don't you look beautiful Nikolas said as he looked at her in her blue jean, red t shirt and white tennis shoes. Thank you, mamma helped me get pretty Isabella said. Well she did a wonderful job, you are just as beautiful as your mom Nikolas said as he looked at Gia.
We are going to spend the day together Isabella said. Yes we are Nikolas replied. Actually I have an appointment Gia said, so you two will be spending the day together Gia said. Gia, Nikolas said as he looked at her. Mamma we were all going to be together Isabella said. I know, but I think you and your daddy need to spend some time together so you can get to know each other Gia said. Gia, I don't know what to say Nikolas said as he looked at her. You don't have to say anything, I kept you two apart for far to long Gia said. Thank you Nikolas said, clearly overwhelmed by Gia's generosity. You are welcome Gia said.
Well Isabella what would you like to do Nikolas asked? Can we go to the zoo, I really like the panda bears Isabella said. The zoo it is Nikolas replied. You have a good time Gia said as she gave her a kiss. I will Isabella replied. I promise I will have her home in time for dinner Nikolas said as the two of them left.
A Short While Later:
I am so glad to see you Gia said as she opened her door to Lucky. I came as soon as I could, you said it was important Lucky said as they went inside. I don't know what to do Gia said as they sat down. About what Lucky asked? Isabella and Nikolas Gia replied. Nikolas told me Isabella found out he is her father Lucky said. Did he tell you how she found out Gia said. Yes Lucky replied.
Lucky it was awful Gia said. How is she now Lucky asked? She is good, she was upset and confused at first but after we talked she is ok now Gia said. Speaking of Isabella where is she Lucky asked? She is spending the day with Nikolas Gia said. Gia what is going on, why did you ask me to come here Lucky asked?
Lucky I am scared Gia said quietly. Scared of what Lucky asked? Lucky what if Nikolas tried to take Isabella away from me Gia asked? Has he said he was going to do that Lucky asked? No Gia replied. Gia you have nothing to worry about Lucky said. Lucky, Isabella is my life and I can't lose her Gia said. Gia you are not going to lose her, where is this coming from Lucky asked?
Lucky I hurt Nikolas so badly by keeping Isabella from him, I am just afraid he is going to punish me, he is going to take her away from me Gia said. Gia, I know my brother is angry with the both of us, but just from talking to him after he came back from visiting you all he wants is to be her father Lucky said. Lucky I can't forget what happened in the past, the type of person he was then Gia said. Gia he is not that person anymore and if you were really afraid you wouldn't have let him take Isabella today Lucky said.
I know Gia said quietly. You still love him don't you Lucky asked? No, Gia said. Gia you can't lie to me, I know you all to well Lucky said. Lucky, Isabella wants us to be a family and I think Nikolas wants that too Gia said. And what do you want Lucky asked? I want Isabella to be happy Gia said.
Gia you don't have to marry Nikolas, just take things one day at a time. Nikolas got a second chance and he is not going to blow it Lucky said. There is just this part of me that thinks he will go back to being that person I had to get away from Gia said. Gia I truly believe that is in the past Lucky said.
I always feel better when I talk to you Gia said. I will always be here for you, that will never change Lucky said. I just don't want Nikolas to get his hopes up because we aren't getting back together Gia said.
Gia just be honest with him and Isabella and then everything will fall into place Lucky said as the two of them sat there and spent the rest of the afternoon talking.
