A few days later Regina gets ready to take Roland shopping for things in his room. Regina zips up her black dress and puts on her matching black leather heals. As she walks downstairs the door bell starts ringing. Regina walks toward the door to answer it and is surprised to see Snow.
" Snow what are you doing here?"
" I wanted to stop by and see you can I come in? " Snow asks holding a colorful bag.
" Sure ," Regina gestures Snow to come inside and shuts the door behind her.
" Can I get you anything? Coffee? Tea?
" Tea is fine thank you," Snow says sitting down by the table.
Regina walks back in handing Snow the cup.
" Thank you ," Snow says sipping her tea. "Henry told us the good news . Regina I'm very happy for you. You deserve this,"
" Thank you Snow," Regina says suddenly becoming quiet.
Snow can sense something isn't quite right with Regina.
" I know this must not be easy for you. I cant imagine what your going through," Snow says giving a sympathetic look.
" He was such a devoted father to Roland," Regina points out.
" Does Roland know?' Snow asks
" I haven't told him yet,"
" Regina you have to tell him. He's going to find out eventually . Your going to start showing soon, " Snow points out.
Regina glares at Snow " 'I'm aware of that. I just haven't been able to find the right moment to tell him. We are going shopping today. Perhaps I will tell him then.
" We'll I have to get going I have some kids to tutor but not before I give you this," Snow says handing her the bag.
" Whats this?" Regina asks.
" You will have to open it to find ," Snow says with a smile.
Regina opens the bag to find a unicorn mobile.
" Oh Snow this is beautiful," Regina says looking at the mobile.
" It was Emma's as a baby I wanted you to have it Snow says,"
" Oh Snow I cant accept this you should give it to Emma," Regina says unsure if she should accept the gift now.
" She wants you to have it we both want you to have it for the nursery," Snow says with a smile
" Thank you Snow I will treasure this ,"
At Zelena's farm house. Zelena sits at her desk doing some paperwork. Cora walks up to Zelena.
" I've been thinking. Your busy during the day. Why not let me watch Robyn," Cora offers.
Zelena looks at Cora unsure. " Mum I don't know"
" I'm fully capable of watching my granddaughter for a few hours . You need to focus on your work and this little one im sure can be quite the distraction,"
Zelena trusts her mother but hasn't been away from Robyn since the day she was born. She looks at her mother with a smile.
" Ok Mother if you really want to I suppose it would be alright," Zelena gets Robyn's diaper bag handing it to Cora. She then places a kiss on Robyn's head " Bye my little green bean mummy will see you soon,"
" Why don't we all meet up at Granny's later. Wave bye to mommy Robyn, " Cora says as they leave .
At the toy store Regina and Roland are shopping. Roland runs around the store not used to seeing all the toys. The only toy he holds near and dear is the gray monkey that Regina gave him.
" Theres so many! " Roland says happily
Regina laughs at the boy's enthusiasm.
" You make pick some for your room," Regina informs Roland .
" Hooray! Roland shouts excitingly
Regina lets Roland look around . She cant help but notice all the things for babies. She then comes across a pink horse. She thinks the stuffed animal would be perfect for a girl, but what if her child is a boy? Not wanting to spoil Roland's day she holds off on baby shopping.
Roland runs over to Regina carrying quite a few toys.
" Look mommy I found a lion for my lion at home so he doesn't get lonely. Maybe they can be friends with my monkey. ,"
" I think that's a fine idea Roland,"
" Look super heroes they like the ones Henry has in his room. I want to be like Henry," Roland states.
" Ok we will get these as well," Regina says taking all the toys Roland has picked .
After a fun filled day at the toy store Roland and Regina head home. Zelena and Cora are at home as well. Cora sits in the living room sitting on the couch . While Zelena sits in the dining room sitting in a chair.
" Thank you for the toys today mommy," Roland says happily carrying in the bags.
" Your very welcome Roland," Regina looks at her mother and sister sensing the tension." Roland why don't you go play with your new toys," Regina says watching Roland run up the stairs as fast as he can. Regina walks in between where Cora and Zelena are. " Ok what's wrong,"
" Ask Zelena," Cora says frustrated
" Mum offered to watch the baby today," Zelena says then Cora interrupts.
" I was going to take her to the park but not 5 minutes after I take Robyn there comes Zelena and takes Robyn back," Cora explains.
" Why didn't you let mother have the baby for a few hours," Regina asks.
" I don't trust anyone with Robyn," Zelena points out
" Even me? " Cora asks having her feelings hurt.
Regina decides its time to intervene. She looks at Zelena first. " Zelena mother is trying to change and just wants to spend time getting to know her grandchildren. You need to give her a chance to prove that," She then looks at Cora. " Mother please respect that it may take Zelena time learning to trust others and just be patient,"
" It's not you mum. I well Robyn is my only child and I don't want anything to happen her . I don't want people thinking I'm a bad mother," Zelena admits.
" Needing help once in a while doesn't' make you a bad mother Zelena. Your a great mother to Robyn. You certainly didn't get that from me ," Cora says looking down.
" You did what you thought was best mum. Maybe I was a bit to over protective. I will let you watch Robyn," Zelena tells Cora.
" I'd like that' Cora says . having made up from there fight they both smile at each other.
Later that night Regina is sitting on her bed reading a book when Roland walks in.
" Goodnight mommy thank you for the toys today," Roland says climbing up on the bed and hugging Regina.
" Your very welcome Roland. Roland I have something to tell you," Regina says getting her ultrasound picture to show Roland handing it to him.
" What's this?" Roland asks curious at what he's looking at
Regina points to the center. " See this this is a baby its in my tummy."
" Did you eat it? " Roland asks
Regina cant help but chuckle at his response. " No I didn't eat it . Do you know what thos means ? Your your going to be a big brother your going to have a little brother or sister ," Regina tells him.
Roland develops a big smile on his face. " Really I get to be a big brother ! Hooray!," Roland says jumping on the bed.
" Roland be careful sweetie,"
Roland stops jumping on the bed. " I think daddy let us have a baby here so we wouldn't be sad no more now we can be happy," Roland says to Regina.
Regina's heart melts at Roland's statement " I think your right Roland "
Roland starts to yawn being very sleepy " Goodnight mommy," He then goes to Regina's flat stomach placing a kiss there . " Night night baby I love you," Roland says climbing off the bed and running to his own room.
Regina smiles at the young boy knowing already he will be a great big brother. She couldn't help but think about what Roland said. Maybe this was Robin's way of letting her know everything will be alright.
