Chapter Twelve
Margaret Scully sits at her kitchen table with a cup of coffee and a pile of mail beside her. She takes a sip of tea and sifts through the envelopes. Junk mail. Junk mail. Bills. And a letter. She opens the letter, not really recognizing the handwriting, and skims over the ink on the page.
Dear Mom,
I know it has been a while since we were last in contact - five years in fact - and I have some good news. I am three months pregnant with my third child. Another little girl. I so badly want you to meet my baby and my other two daughters. Aimee and Helene have asked about you, and they want to meet you too. They're like little mini versions of me except Helene has Mulder's hair and eyes. It doesn't really feel like I have lived here for just over five years of my life. The years have passed quickly and not a day has gone by that I haven't been thinking of you. I hope you are doing okay.
Monica gave birth to a little boy not long ago, after the trauma of finding Angelle unconscious in the sea when we took the kids to the beach. She's fine now, and doting on her baby brother.

He pestered me for days until I gave in and decided I did want to know the gender after all. The puppy dog eyes still work on me like a charm! It's unbelievable.
I found some of the pictures of our wedding day, and you'll find them in the envelope. You will also find a few recent photos of the twins. Well, I don't have much else to say so...
Until we meet again
All my love, Dana xxx
p.s. Dig deep in that envelope and you'll find another surprise.
Margaret searched the large brown envelope and pulled out two pictures of Scully in her wedding dress, one of her standing next to Mulder in his kilt and the last wedding photo, the group all standing together. The pictures of the girls were from their birthday party, she picked out the scan picture and tears glistened in her eyes. She so badly wanted to be with her only daughter. She realized there was still something in the envelope for her and put her hand in again to find it. She pulled out...

I know it's not much of a cliffhanger but if you wanna know what the surprise is, I'll need some reviews. :-)
