Disclaimers in chapter 1
"Merry Christmas, Mom!" Henry exclaims, dropping a small wrapped box in her lap.
"Honey, you didn't have to get me anything." She says, reaching for his hand, smiling.
Regina leans back into Robin's embrace as she lifts the lid off the box. She sifts through the tissue, seeing a small, folded up piece of cloth. Scrunching her brow, confused, she looks at Robin before gently lifting it out of the box.
Her jaw drops and she gasps, tears instantly springing to her eyes, as the box falls to the ground. Robin looks over her shoulder at the tiny onesie, reading the words aloud, "Baby Mills, coming summer, 2010."
"You're going to be a grandmother!" Henry says gently, not sure what her reaction would be.
"Henry," she sobs, "my baby is having a baby!" Her hands cover her face, clearly embarrassed for crying in front of all these people. Robin recognises the signs and pulls her into his chest, kissing the top of her head gently.
Finally, she pulls herself together and jumps up from the sofa, engulfing Henry in a hug.
"Thank you, honey! This is the best present ever!" And she doesn't stop smiling for the rest of the day.
