Nikita smiled as Hope slowly nurse, her fingers softly caressing her daughter’s soft curls. “You have your father’s hair.” She whispered in awe.
She looked up as she heard a soft knock. “Yes, come in.”
Adam slowly pushed the door open and carefully peeked inside. “Can I come in?” He asked.
Nikita smiled and nodded. “Come in Adam, meet your baby sister.”
Adam ran into the room and climbed carefully on the bed beside Nikita, his eyes grew wide as he stared at the baby. “She’s my sister?” He asked as a little finger
gently brushed the baby’s arm. Frowning at the difference between her pale skin and his own dark one he lifted his gaze and met Nikita’s. “How can she be my sister? She’s so pale and I’m so dark.”
Nikita gasped, remembering that this was no ordinary boy, his father had the mind of a genius, and his grandfather was extremely smart. She knew that even at his young age he was very alert and knew much more than any normal child. Gently she traced his cheek with her finger.
“Hope is your half sister Adam. That is why you and her have different skin colorings.” She brushed a stubborn curl off his forehead before continuing. “Your mommy was of middle eastern descent and that is why you look like her. While Hope looks like your daddy.”
Adam shifted his gaze to stare at the baby in Nikita’s arms. Adam lowered his gaze to his hand and sighed. "I want to look like my daddy too." he mumbled softly. His hand reached out and tenderly brushed her cheek making the baby smile softly. “She smiled.” He whispered awe struck.
Nikita frowned at hearing Adam's mumbled words. sighing she looked to the side where a picture of Michael took place of honor among the things on the bedside table. "you do look like him Adam." she thought. she chuckled softly as the baby let go of her breast and turned her face toward her brother’s soft touch. “She smiled because she recognizes her big brother’s touch.”
Adam’s dark gaze widened even more as Hope tried to focus her gaze on his face. Her tiny little hand softly fisted, trapping Adam’s finger inside. “She’s strong.” He mumbled softly.
Nikita smiled once again, engraving in her memory the image before her. She jumped as the door to her room burst open, cringing as Hope began to screech.
Birkoff froze in place, stumbling a few more steps forward as Walter and Quinn ran into him. They all looked down at their shoes once they noticed Nikita’s angry glare.
“What’s so important that you three had to barge into this room unannounced?” She growled as she tried to calm the baby. Adam softly patted his sister’s cheek trying to do the same.
Walter stepped forward and sighed. “Quinn call Nanna.”
Quinn turned and quickly exited the room, returning several seconds later with the older woman. Nanna quickly took the fussy infant in her arms and walked away taking Adam’s hand she maneuvered him toward the door. “Come child, your
Mother needs to rest now. You can play with your sister once I get her settled down alright.” Adam turned and rushed back to the bed, leaning over he kissed Nikita’s cheek before turning and following the older woman. Nanna stopped at the door and softly ordered Nikita to stay in bed before closing the door.
Nikita sighed and pulled her feet back under the covers. Looking up she folded her hands in her lap and waited for Birkoff to speak.
Birkoff nodded and soon they were sitting beside the bed. “There is a situation that needs your attention.”
Nikita nodded slowly. “First tell me how the Dain mission went.”
Birkoff looked at Quinn, who slowly shook her head. clearing her throat she began. “That’s the situation, it looks like we lost the entire team this morning when a couple of planes slammed into the twin towers.”
Nikita straightened her spine. Reaching out she grabbed Quinn’s biceps. “What happened?”
Walter stood and gently forced Nikita to let go of Quinn. Taking a seat beside her on the bed he slowly explained.
“Two planes were hijacked and crashed into the twin towers in New York early this morning. The Dain team had just entered the building and had Gregor Dain in their custody, there was a message sent to us just before the first plane crashed.”
Nikita waited impatiently while Birkoff opened his PDA and gave it to her. “The mes˙
