Chapter One
-:-
Martin Fitzgerald felt sun beaming down on his face from the curtains and from that moment, he knew that he had to open his eyes right now because this day is his six years old daughter, Sara's first day of first grade, the day that Sara was dreading of for a whole week now and the day that Martin is excited about since school had ended last summer.
Usually, Sara loved school and don't wanted summer to start because she thinks that she will never see her friends again and the big part of this, from what the older children told her, she will never get a naptime and a snack time during school ever again and the moment she start first grade, she had to do work all the time, a lot of work with no rest and cookies to eat.
The moment she heard and the moment Martin picked her up from school one afternoon, Sara ran into her father's arms and told him to don't let her go into first grade while crying her tears from her brown eyes.
Don't knowing why Sara told him that, Martin held his little girl in his arms and while cradling her and smoothing her light brown hair to comfort her, he asked her in a kind and calm voice, "Baby, why you don't want to go into the first grade?"
Being in her father's arms and without looking up to Martin, a crying Sara answered her father's question by saying to him with a cheerless voice, "Daddy, because what of the big kids told me, once I goes into the first grade, I had to work all the time and I will never get a nap time or a snack time ever again!"
"And you do know that I love nap time and snack time a lot more than doing school work. Right, Daddy?"
Understanding that, Martin kissed the top of his daughter's head and said to her with the same calming and kind voice of his, "Yeah, I know about that, Baby but what did you do after the big kids told you that?"
Looking up to her father's face right now for the first time she ran into his arms with her big brown eyes and a trembling line on her face that was her smile, Sara stared at her father's blue eyes and said to him, "Nothing, Daddy. I didn't do anything after that because it started in the hallway after the bell rang."
"One of the first grade kids came over to me after Emily founded her mommy and ran over to her and then, the kid asked me if I am a Kindergartener."
"What did you told the kid, Sara?"
Right away, Sara told him that she told the first grade kid that she is a Kindergartener and after saying the kid that, Sara looked like that she might burst into tears again when she looked into Martin's eyes again while saying to her father, "After I told him that, the kid looked at me straight in the eyes and told me in a mean voice that once I go into the first grade, I had to work all the time without no naptime and snack time at all!"
"And Daddy, that kid was big and mean!"
"Oh, Baby. Did other nice older kids or teachers saw this and tried to stop this?"
In return, Sara shook her head and said to him right away, "No, Daddy."
Seeing that shaking of her head Sara just gave him, Martin know that Sara is quite sad right now but he never saw his daughter being very sad about this before and seconds later, Martin had an idea to cheer his sad daughter up and it involves food.
To do that, Martin put Sara down on the gravel courtyard and after founding a piece of soft white tissue in Sara's backpack, he gave it to Sara with a warm smile on his face while saying to her, "Here, Baby. Use this."
Looking at her father's eyes and down to his hand, Sara grabbed the tissue off of Martin's hand and begins wiping her tears away with it to make it go away.
Watching her wiping away the tears off her face, Martin waited to speak to her until she got rid of most of her tears and after she got rid most of them, Martin studied his daughter's cute face with a loving grin on his face and asked her, "Hey, Sara. Want me to tell you something?"
Without saying a single word to him, Sara just nodded to her father and the moment he gave that nod of her, Martin looked at his baby girl's brown eyes again and with the same grin on his face, Martin Fitzgerald said to her, "Sara, I know that you'll miss Kindergarten and don't want to go into the first grade because of what you told me but I am having a good feeling that you'll like first grade even more than Kindergarten because you'll still be in the same class with Emily and Jane and you'll have more exciting stories to tell me about school and even through that you might get no naptime and snack time and once school start again, we might get a snack after school together and if I can, maybe a naptime."
"Fine with that, Sara?"
After hearing of all of those great things from her father about the first grade a moment ago, Sara thought about it for a few seconds and the moment she thought that her father's idea is a great one, Sara studied her father's face this time and after staring at him for a couple of seconds before speaking, a smile had appeared on her face when she looked at her father's face with her eyes when she answered his question by saying to him and giving him a kiss on his cheek, "I'm fine with that, Daddy and can I ask you a question?"
The moment he got kissed by his daughter, Martin grinned at her for giving him such a sweet one and said to her, "Sure, Sara. What's it?"
With a sweet smile on her face, Sara asked him if they get some ice cream together.
Martin laughed when his daughter told him that and right away after kissing her forehead, he said to Sara, "Sure, Baby. Let get some before we goes into the office. Fine with that, Baby?"
Agreeing with him and liking the idea of getting a sweet treat before seeing Uncle Danny and Uncle Jack plus Auntie Sam, Auntie Viv and Auntie Elena whose last day of working at Missing Persons before heading over to White Collar was the exactly same day as the day that Martin and Sara will be getting some ice cream, Sara smiled at her kind, smart, and sweet as hell Daddy again and said to him, "Yeah, Daddy. I'm fine with that and let go right now!"
Martin laughed at the words Sara just said to him and told her that he's fine with that before getting hold of her little hand and with the little hand, they headed over to the ice cream shop near the school to have some ice cream together before going back to work just in time for the surprise farewell party for Elena that Danny and the rest of the team gave her with most of the other agents in the MPU were in too, wishing Elena luck in the White Collar division.
During the many stories that the agents in MPU had with Elena, one of the highlights of the party was from Sara who ran over to Elena and gave her a hug and a huge kiss on her face and told her that to have fun in White Collar and she will miss her here in Missing Persons.
Most of the agents were in awe when they saw that great moment from Fitzgerald's little girl who headed back to playing with Sofie especially Elena who love Sara and treated the brown-eyed girl like her own daughter and Martin who is Sara's father for a year and a half now, still had no idea how the kind and smart and sweet little girl is his daughter.
That he had no clue of that theory.
Three months later, Martin smiled when he thought of that moment again and knowing that he had to wake his little girl of his this morning after getting that the time is around seven in the morning, Martin quickly pulled the covers off of him and putting his feet on the warm/cold hardwood floor, Martin got himself up and got out of the room to go over to his daughter's room to wake her on this important day.
