Ch.1 Coming home.
Phyllis just finished putting on Summer's last boot. The little strawberry blonde was spending her spending her first day back in Genoa City with her dad and Noah. She was glad that she had kept the house so that she and Summer would have her own rooms, not that she didn't like Summer sleeping with her it was the other way around. In just a few weeks her baby girl would be a year old. The redheaded mommy had been there for all the big stuff except the first steps but Nicholas recorded it and sent it to her. There was a knock on the door.
"I guess that's your daddy, Summer." She whispered as she went to open her door leaving Summer on the couch playing with Bella her doll.
"Hi Nick." She said with a smile.
"Hey, how are you?" He replied.
"I'm great and so is the baby before you ask. What about you." She questioned stepping aside to let her soon to be ex into her warm home.
Walking inside and closing the door he kissed Phyllis on the cheek. "I'm fine and how's my little…"
"Daddy! I missed you." Summer exclaimed jumping into her father's arms hugging him at the first sign of his voice.
"Hi gummy bear I missed you too." He stood up and spun her around a few times and then she kissed him on the cheek and let her out of his embrace. "You've gotten taller and prettier since the last time I saw you."
Phyllis smiled at her sight she loved the way the two of them interacted with each other and hoped the baby would have the same kind of relationship with him too. "Summer why don't you go upstairs and get you're backpack so you can get going."
"OK mommy" and with that said she went upstairs.
Phyllis opened the hall closet, reached into a bag and pulled out an envelope. Giving it to Nick "This is for you"
He knew not to ask what it was because she'd answer 'an envelope' or 'open it and find out'. He opened it and pulled out some pictures. First one was a sonogram, second came a picture of Summer at Disney World with Winnie the Pooh. After was one with Summer dressed up as an elf, then in the cutest red dress with dot and a Christmas background. Out of the last two first was Summer sitting in Phyllis's lap in the same out fit with a winter wonderland and the last was a collage with pictures of him, Summer, Phyllis, Noah, and Daniel.
With a huge gleaming smile out his face he looked up to face his soon to be ex-wife. "Thanks I love them, and it looks like someone had fun at Disney. So do you know the sex of the baby yet?"
"No not yet I decided to wait until I got here so you could come if you wanted. We'll be spending a lot of time together the next several months since there are going to be many NVP spas opening."
"I know mom was telling me and of course I'd love to come with you to you're OB/GYN appointment. So has things been going in Florida."
"Ok great and things a have been wonderful. The company's good, Summer loves daycare and has made friends and me well you know I'm …" But before she could finish she heard their daughter's voice over the monitor.
"Mommy help please I get my doll."
"I'll be right there."
10 min later they come back down.
"I'm ready daddy."
"Ok princess let's go."
Phyllis goes into the closet and gets her coat. "Come here baby girl." Summer walks over to her mom and puts on her Baby Blue coat they just so happens to match her sweater set and matching gloves.
She touches her mom's stomach "See ya baby" and then kisses her mom on the cheek. "See ya later mommy."
She kisses her back. "See you Monday and be good. I love you."
"Ok and I love you too."
Nick picks her put and takes the bags from Phyllis.
"Nicholas everything you need is in those bags ok. She can't go to sleep with out her pink cat and Winnie the Pooh pillow. And…"
He cuts her off " And if she starts to cough give her the medicine in the bag because she can't take the others I know ok. We'll see you later take care of yourself and the baby." He kisses her on the cheek. "Summer tell mommy bye."
And with that said they were out the door and getting in the car.
next Phyllis steps back into the newman tower.
