Ziva's POV Have you ever wondered how it feels to lose your partner, best friend, and soul mate in the line of duty? I guess now I know how Ton... Tony felt when they lost Kate in the field. It should have been me. Not him. Now I have to raise Tali by myself. He will never get see his daughter grow up. Heck, I almost didn't get to see my daughter grow up. Well I guess I should tell you how this all started…

Let's start with the day he died. It started just as a normal day. McGee was on the computer. Tony was throwing paper balls into my trashcan. I used to find it annoying but now that we are dating it wasn't as annoying, it was actually kinda cute. Anyway I was sharpening my knife. Old habits from Mossad. And of course Gibbs was nowhere to be found. Tony and I have dated for 1 month. Today was actually our 1 month anniversary. "Tony are we gonna do anything tonight?" "Zee-Vah meet me at my apartment at 7:00 P.M." "Ok Tony!" Then Gibbs walked in. "Grab your gear!" "Where to boss?" Tony replied. "Dead navy petty officer in Norfolk." As usual we grabbed our gear and got down to the truck. "Tony you and Ziver drive the truck down. McGee you're with me." Something just felt off today. I wasn't even sure why.
