Chapter 4
What a crazy day. Frantic calls from Sydney about Laura finding out. The same from Mom worrying about the consequences which will occur after she tells her, the possible rejection. But what about me? Is it time to tell her about me? About my father? Or is it too soon? Maybe not. It'll just do more damage. Right now it's time for damage control and then get out.
Nadia walked up to the front door and rang the bell.
"Come in." Sydney shouted from inside.
Nadia walked in and went to the lounge.
"Hey, how are you two? How did it go?"
"As good as you can expect something like this to go" Sydney told her. "Apart from the little madam decided to throw a temper tantrum because we decided not to give her the full details."
"Why, what details didn't you give her?"
"The stuff about project Christmas, the KGB. That Mom was an undercover spy at the time?" Sydney explained to Nadia
"So when is she going to find out?"
"When's she's old enough. When she can understand it all a little better. "Irina said to Nadia.
Just then a little girl popped her head around the door.
"Auntie Nadia!"
"Hey Sweetie" So how are you?"
"Ok!"
"Just Okay? Is there something on your mind?"
"Well" Laura said rubbing her foot on the floor. "Can you tell me the rest of the story about Grandma Irina?"
"Sorry but your Mommy has told me that she doesn't want you to know about the rest until you're a bit older. But I'm happy to discuss what you know so far."
"Okey Dokey. Then can I ask you this. I know your Mommy's half-sister. So Grandpa Jack isn't your Daddy so who is?"
"My Dad's name is Arvin Sloane. Mom meet him years ago after her Jack split up before many years later deciding to get remarried." Nadia told Laura, omitting certain information that in fact she was the product of an affair."
"So why haven't I ever met him?"
"Because he lives a um.... Another country" Another lie but she couldn't tell her the full truth. That he is in CIA custody. But herself had been visting regulary at 3 months intervals.
"Oh" was Laura's response.
