April 2008
Marisol had started to work again and Clara-Maria is in Daycare now. During the day Horatio and her siblings were able to plan the surprise party for her. They wanted it to be a special, like she is special to all of them.
In the evening Horatio could see that she is more relaxed and happy because she is able to work again. He knew that she had missed it and could see the difference it did to her. He was happy about her being happy.
Two weeks later the family went to their favourite restaurant where their familes and the team would be waiting for them. When they walked into the restaurant theys all claped hans and called "surprise". Marisol had tears in her eyes and was happy.
In their bed in the evening Marisol was happy. "Are you alright?" "Yes. Horatio how did you do that?" "Our team and our familes knew, including our daughters." "You did not have to do that." "Honey I did that because you deserved it. I wanted you to be happy. You hardly were happy for a long time but now that all the problems are over I wanted you to just enjoy yourself." "Thank you Horatio." "You are welcome." H epulled her into his chest knowing that it was good for her to enjoy herself again.
