Chapter 2- Abba

"Kelly you have to be strong. You have to be strong for yourself, strong for that baby (as he touched my abdomen) and you have to be strong for Adam. You also have to forgive her, I know that that is hard and I also know that you don't want to do that, but you have to. You have to for you and you have to for her." He said as he let me cry into his chest. Just then we heard a sound from upstairs. He whispered to me to go over to the corner where I wouldn't be able to seen. I ran over there and covered myself as I began to panic.

All of the sudden I heard, "Abba! Abba! Are you in the basement Abba?" It was Ziva she too had come to Gibbs for comfort. He yelled yah back and she began to walk down the stairs.

"Abba, what am I going to do with her! Kelly won't talk to me; she can barely look at me! What did I do to her to make her feel like I was her enemy?" Ziva said as she sat down next to Gibbs.

"I don't know Ziver; you left her and her siblings when she was 14. You missed 6 years of her life! I mean what would you do if you were her?" He said.

"I think I would be proud of my mother! I had to sacrifice a lot of things to go over there and protect her from those people!" She replied.

"Yes, you did sacrifice things to do that but you missed a lot of things in her life some that she hasn't told you about! You missed her when she 'became a woman', you missed when the first boy broke her heart, you missed when she graduated high school, you missed when she got her first college acceptance letter, you missed when she decided to stay at home so that she could help out Tony with Tali and Mike, you weren't there Ziver!"

"I know but I was saving her from bad people who do really bad things!" She replied. Tears where starting to gather in her eyes.

I stepped out from where I was hiding and said, "You weren't there MOM! I needed you and you weren't there to be there for me, for Mike, for Tali or for Daddy! Do you know what you put him through? I mean do you really know all of the things that you have missed!" I yelled at her as loud as I could and tears rolled down my face as soon as I started talking. I still hadn't told her about Adam, the man who had stolen my heart the first time I saw him. I also still hadn't told her that I was pregnant.

"I know Kelly! I know but I had to go!" she said as soon as she started talking I felt nauseous and began running upstairs to find the nearest toilet. I got to the bathroom and started vomiting just as Ziva ran into the bathroom she held my hair up as I continued to vomit for the next few minutes. She got two cold wash clothes one for me to use to clean out my mouth the other to put across my forehead. I sat there for a few before Gibbs walked in and said that I either had to tell her or he was going to. So I decide that it would be best for me to tell her myself. So I sat up and leaned against the bathtub next to me.

"Mom, I… I'm… I'm…" I stuttered

"What Kelly? You're what?" She asked.

"I'm pregnant." I said as though a huge weight had just been lifted off my shoulders.

"How could you be pregnant?" she asked.
