My Past becomes a Nightmare
It begins with Abby Maitland getting ready to go to the ARC and Connor Temple was feeling Rex. Stephen Hart comes behind Abby and kisses her on the cheek making her smile and Connor just goes to Nick lab to her Nick.
Later on in the day, Abby had some unexpected guests came to the ARC and Julia who works at the reception went to Abby and told her.
"Abby, were you expecting any guests?" Julia asked.
"No, why is someone here to see me?" Abby questioned.
"Err...well let just say you got some guests at the reception" Julia answered.
Abby got up and went down with her and Julia went back behind the desk and Stephen, Nick, Jenny and Connor had come down the stairs after Abby. Jenny had caught up with Abby before she saw her guests.
"Abby, we got anomaly" Jenny said.
Abby took her jacket from Stephen and they left.
"ABBY" Julia shouted and she turned around. "What about your guest?"
"Err...I'll be as quick as I can" Abby replied leaving with Stephen.
About 5 hours later, Nick, Stephen, Abby, Jenny and Connor returned to the ARC and Julia had stood up and went to Abby.
"Your guest are in there, they been waiting for hours" Julia hissed.
"Oh is it that important?" Abby asked.
"Yes, they really wanna see you" Julia answered.
Jenny, Nick, Stephen and Connor stood by the desk and Abby sighed and went to the door and open it and she didn't look up straight away but she did after 2 minutes.
"Sorry for keeping you waiting, but can I help you?" Abby said.
"Well I don't know you tell us" the woman responded.
Abby attention was brought and she looked up at her parents and they smiled at her and Abby looked at them both in total shock.
Abby looked at Nick, Stephen, Jenny and Connor and they smiled at her and they came in the room.
"Hi, I'm Sarah Maitland and this is my husband Tom Maitland" Sarah spoke out shaking Jenny hand.
"I'm Jenny Lewis" Jenny replied. "Would you two like a hot drink?"
"Oh that would be nice" Sarah let out following Jenny.
Abby looked at Tom and he looked down at her below and Abby followed Sarah and they all went up into the cafe that was there and had a hot drink apart from Abby who had just ordered a cold drink.
"We actually don't know a lot about you guys cos Abby never mentioned how nice you are" Jenny said.
"Well, we wouldn't expect Abby to mention us because Abby always felt she let us down as parents" Sarah responded.
"Oh right um well I don't think she done badly at her job, she really good at it" Jenny replied.
"Oh she loves animals because when we took her to Africa, she loved being around the animals, we would never see her until late so she always done me proud" Sarah spoke out.
Jenny smiled and took a sip of her coffee and looked at Tom.
"You're not talking much" Jenny pointed out.
"Not a lot to say" Tom answered.
"Are you proud of Abby work?" Jenny asked.
"Course I am" Tom replied looking at her.
Abby laughed and walked out of the room.
"Did I mention you look so much like Abby" Jenny told Sarah.
"Oh well she doesn't think that, sometimes I wonder what wrong with that girl" Sarah replied.
"Oh she had a tough day, she will be OK" Jenny responded.
"Well I hope so" Sarah said.
Later on Sarah, Tom and Abby sat down and chatted in another room away from the others and Abby was keeping an eye on her dad.
"Why don't you ever come and visit us Abby?" Sarah asked.
"You know why, me and daddy never get along" Abby answered.
"You're friends are nice especially that Connor" Sarah said with a big smile.
"Yeah, Connor my flatmate" Abby replied.
"Me and your dad have been talking and we want you to come home with us for this Christmas" Sarah out spoke.
"Err...no I don't think so mum" Abby responded. "I haven't really got the money and I promised I would spend Christmas with Rex"
"Who the hell is Rex?" Sarah asked.
"Rex is my Lizard" Abby answered.
"Well you could bring him with you" Sarah suggested.
"And I wanna spend it with them lot" Abby responded.
"They could come with you, we have room for everyone to come" Sarah replied. "Please come back for Christmas, you can bring anyone with you and I will make sure you get the best Christmas of your life"
"Maybe" Abby said.
"Oh Abby, what did we ever do to you during your childhood?" Sarah asked.
"Nothing" Abby answered.
"So you and your gang are coming to ours for Christmas" Sarah replied.
"Yeah we are" Abby said.
Sarah, Tom and Abby left the room and Sarah smiled at them all.
"Were see you for Christmas" Sarah responded.
"Who we?" Jenny asked.
"We have invited you all for Christmas because we don't want Abby to spend it alone so you're all invited" Sarah answered.
"Oh OK, well we will see you guys next week" Jenny said.
"Bye sweetheart" Sarah replied hugging Abby.
"Bye mum"
"Bye darling" Tom responded hugging Abby.
"Get off me" Abby said firmly walking them to the car and Tom touched Abby and she walked away from him.
Abby went back to the others and they looked at her.
"What the thing about Christmas?" Jenny asked.
"You guys have got to come I'm not spending it on my own with them" Abby answered.
