Diane looked down, expressionless, at her new sleeping baby that she was holding in her arms. Alex looked down upon them both with a giant smile on his face. His family. The family that he had always wanted, but didn't realize how much until now.

DIANE: You take her

Alex smiled down at his new daughter. He never realised that he could love someone so much this quickly. He didn't notice that Diane didn't look quite as happy.

DIANE: Suppose she should have a name

ALEX: yeah..

DIANE: Well what are you going to call her?

Her comment took Alex a little by surprise and he looked up at her slightly concerned

ALEX: err...well. what names do you like? We should both agree on it.

DIANE: I don't care.what names are in your family?

The smile dropped form Alex's face. He placed the baby back into her hospital crib

DIANE: Alex?

He looked at the floor and didn't respond

DIANE: Alex? What names have run through your family?

He started muttering

ALEX: I.I er.

DIANE: Alex.what is it?.

ALEX: I.don't.know

DIANE: What do you mean?

ALEX: I.don't know what names run through my family

DIANE: Well it doesn't matter, I'm sure your mum will know.

ALEX: No.She.I.

Diane looked concerned

DIANE: Alex?.What is it? What's wrong?

ALEX: I.I er.I.

He looked up at her

ALEX: I was.I was adopted.

He quickly turned to leave the room. Diane called after him, with a look of worry and shock on her face, but he carried on out of the door.
