"Tony, I'm home!" Kate called out as she entered her apartment. Her greeting was met with silence. "That's strange" she thought. Usually her husband would hurry to the door and, with a quick kiss and a goofy smile, sweep her off her feet and give her a hug.
"Hello? Is anyone home?" Kate started to feel panic rise inside her chest. Then she heard a slight rustling in the other room. It came from behind the couch. Kate cautiously approached the piece of furniture, ready to defend herself from the intruder.
"BOO!" A small head of brown, bouncy curls popped up from the opposite side of the couch. Kate's blood pressure began to slowly drop back to normal.
"Ziva, you scared me! Where's your father?" Kate asked as she felt two strong arms wrap around her from behind, and a familiar voice say "I heard you were looking for me."
Kate turned to smile at her husband, and gave him a kiss hello. Then she felt a small being push her way into their embrace.
"Don't forget about me!" Ziva protested. How could Kate forget anyone in her beautiful family?
