Seven months pregnant Ziva arrived at her house from doctor. She checked her email. Ziva clicked on email from Tony. Ziva read message, "Hello, Ziva. Can you please give me second chance and I am sorry for what I did. So please forgive me. You missed Maya and Donna's birthday. I keep dreaming of you everyday. I'm not dreaming of Bishop anymore. Can you please come home for Tali and Katie's birthday? Tali keeps asking for you. I love you. So, I hope I see you again. Bye, Ziva." Ziva smiled then she decided it was time to come home. Ziva started packing then booked ticket to DC then left to airport.

NCIS

Mcgee walked up to Tony, "Hey, Tony. Have you heard from Ziva?" "No. I sent her email 30 minutes ago. She should see it by now." "I'm sure she will see it. I know you're hurting but you could have told truth instead." "I know but I told a lie."

Abby walked up, "Hey, guys. This is third month since Ziva left. If she doesn't come back then next month will be a fourth month." "I know. But she will come back when she's ready." Abby nodded, "Well, Tali keeps asking for her." Maya walked up, "Abba, I'm leaving DC to Israel." "Okay." "You're letting her go?" "Because she's her daughter, Ziva said she can visit anytime she wants." "Oh. But I miss her." Maya sat down, "I'm leaving in fourteen hours." Ziva told Maya that she was coming home and she can't tell Tony.

14 hours later

Maya arrived at airport waiting for Ziva. Ziva walked up, "Hey, Maya." Maya hugged Ziva, "Hey, Ima." Maya grabbed luggage, "So, do you forgive Abba?" "Yeah, I do. I'm giving him second chance." Maya nodded, "Wow, that's great. Let's go. He's at work so he had no idea what I'm doing." Ziva chuckled, "Yeah." "So, you're pregnant again?" "Yes." "I'm happy for you two."

Ziva and Maya entered their house. Tali ran up, "Ima!" Ziva hugged Tali, "Hello, Tali. I missed you guys so much." Donna came out, "Hi, Ima." Donna hugged Ziva. Tali let go, "Can you promise not to go away again, please?" Ziva chuckled, "I'm not going away again. I'm staying here." Maya set luggage on couch, "Do you want to see Abba or wait? He could want to know you're carrying his child." "Yes, I'm planning to tell him."

NCIS

Tony grabbed bag, "I'm going to pick girls up from school." Mcgee nodded, "Okay, see you at home."

Tony arrived at Donna and Tali's grade school. Tony waited in car for thirty minutes until Donna's friend walked up, "Hey, are you Donna's father?" Tony looked up, "Yeah, I'm waiting for Donna and Tali." "Didn't she tell you?" "No." "Wow. Your wife picked them up." "Really?" "Yeah." "Okay, thanks."

Tony arrived home then entered inside, "I'm home!" No answer. "Maya?" Tony realized Ziva and girls were at NCIS then left house to car.

Tony stepped out of elevator as Tali ran up, "Hi, Abba." "Hi, Tali." Tali grabbed Tony's hand then pulled him to Ziva, "Ima, he's here." Tony noticed Ziva is pregnant, "Hey, Ziva. You're….pregnant." "Yes, Tony. I didn't want to have child without you knowing." Tony hugged Ziva, "I'm happy and thank you for telling me." "Yeah, this time, we tell honest." "Yes, Ziva. I will tell you truth, i won't lie to you again." Mcgee walked out, "Tony, I thought you...hey, Ziva." Ziva hugged Mcgee, "Hey, Mcgee. I'm going to Abby." Ziva walked down to Abby's lab. Mcgee patted Tony, "Looks like she forgive you and she's carrying your child." "Yeah, she's seven months pregnant."

Ziva entered lab to Abby listening to loud music, "Hey, Abby." No answer. Ziva walked up then hugged Abby. Abby stopped music then Abby hugged Ziva, "Hey, Ziva! What a surprise." Abby gasped, "You're pregnant?" "Yes, I am seven months pregnant." "So, are you and Tony back together?" "Yes." Abby hugged Ziva, "I'm happy for you. Tony almost filed for divorce but something stopped him." "What stopped him?" "Um, you'll have to talk to him." Ziva nodded, "Thanks Abby."

Ziva walked out, "Hey, Tony. Can we talk?" "Yeah." Tony and Ziva entered in restroom. Ziva stood by sink, "Abby told me you almost filed for divorce and something stopped you." Tony sighed, "Okay, I don't want to say her name again but ghost of Bishop appeared front of me and she was telling not to do it. She wants me to be with you so does Tali." Ziva nodded, "Wow, when was this?" "Two months ago, three weeks after you left, I almost was going to shoot myself but Bishop stopped me." Ziva nodded, "Well, I'm sorry that you're hurting." Tony hugged Ziva, "I'm sorry I lied to you before." "I'm sorry too." "And keeping secret from you." "Well, you could had told me instead of keeping it secret." Tony kissed Ziva, "So, are we good?" "Yes, we are good. This time you tell me truth." "I will, Ziva." "One more thing. Did you start drinking again?" Tony sighed, "I started again two weeks after you left. Maya had to cook food for girls. Mcgee put me in rehab now I'm sober for two months." Ziva nodded, "Good to hear that because I don't want you drank when we have new baby."

Tony nodded, "And also, Tali was swimming and Maya had to watch her so Abby watched others for her then Maya saved Tali's life because she almost drowned. I told her not to swim in deep water." "Wow. Glad to hear that. When did that happen?" "Two weeks ago." Ziva nodded, "She's probably not happy with me being away." "Yeah, now she's happy."

Ziva walked out of restroom then walked up to Maya and her friend, Michaela, "Hey, Maya." Maya looked around, "Hey, Ima. Abba. This is my friend, Michaela. We met back in high school two days before shooting." Tony nodded, "You made friends in high school?" "Yeah. I didn't want to be friends with Lelia but she was nice person so we became friends and we trusted each other until few years ago, she did bad thing." Ziva nodded, "Yeah." "Anyway, she just asked me that I could go to Spain with her. We'll be gone for a year. Is that okay?" "Yeah, if it's okay with your father." Tony nodded, "Yeah, it's fine. Be careful out there." "Okay, thanks Ima, Abba." Michaela whispered, "Are they divorced?" Maya looked at Michela, "No, they got separated for three months and now they're back together." "Oh." "Call me if there's any emergency." "I will do."

Ziva and Tony arrived home, "So, Maya is in Spain with her friend. We're back home together." Tony chuckled, "Yeah. Is baby girl or boy?" Ziva smiled, "It's a boy." "Really?" Ziva chuckled, "Yeah. I asked Gibbs if we can him Jake Jethro Dinozzo." Tony laughed, "Yeah, I'll accept it."

Tony helped Ziva lie down in bed, "Do you need anything." "Um, no." Tony lied down next to Ziva then ran his fingers though Ziva's hair, "I missed you, Ziva." "I missed you too. Did you hook up with any woman?" "No. My neighbor keeps asking to hook up with me and I said no," Tony told truth. Ziva kissed Tony, "Good." Tony moved closer then wrapped arm around Ziva. Tony and Ziva were about to fall asleep until Tony's phone went off. Tony answered, "Dinozzo." "It's Mcgee. Sorry to bother you but we got a case." Tony groaned, "Can you ask Gibbs to give me day off? I just got Ziva back." "Yeah, I'll ask." Tony sighed, "I want whole day to be with you." Ziva chuckled, "That's sweet." "Tony, Gibbs gave you week off." "OK, thanks." Tony hang up, "I have week off." Ziva smiled, "Let's go to sleep. Tony, I just needed to get away from NCIS for while. I almost filed for divorce too but my sister ghost stopped me. I'm sorry." Tony kissed Ziva, "I'm sorry too."

Ziva came out in red dress. Abby stood up, "Oh my god. That's perfect!" Ziva chuckled, "Tony and I never got to go out because we have been busy with Jake and jobs." "Yeah. But Mcgee and I offered to babysit kids." Ziva grabbed purse, "Donna wanted to babysit but Tony and I think she's not ready."
