A small girl of 4 years whose hair tied in two little braids is eating her has light brown hair with big Honey brown eyes,she has fair and rosy complexion she seems to be very disciplined and organised as she's spills her juices on table and like other kids she doesn't call her mom she takes a napkin and cleans it by herself and keeps everything in their places. She finishes her breakfast and goes to her room,takes her school bag and wears her shoes then comes down saying "Mother, I am leaving for school "

A girl with her hair tied in bun comes she has brown eyes which looks familiar she says "baby,promise me you won't play too much in ground you know you are sick you'll be more sick if you run and play too much.. and don't eat anything bad only eat your lunchbox ..Study properly and don't fight anyone"

The little kid smiles and says "OK Mother don't worry, you have my word i won't do anything against your will i promise" the little girl goes towards her van and it is revealed it is Elena who is her mother she calls "Bye, Eliana " then Eliana turns and waves to Elena and screams "bye mother ...love yaa" Elena smiles then Eliana sits in her van and goes Elena closes the door and then runs towards kitchen , washes the utensils and then sees that Eliana has already cleaned the table and put the utensils in Kitchen she smiles then she gets ready and takes her bag and leaves. As Gilbert's business is destroyed after Alice,Jacob's death so Elena is not very Rich and is living in very small house in NEW ORLEANS she does a job of receptionist in DG Bank. She comes to her office and in the break time she is having lunch with her friend Clara and she is having fun with her Clara is blonde with blue eyes she says "so Elena have you arranged money ?" Elena gets sad and says "No i couldn't till now but i am trying "

Clara says "Look you're my friend that's why i am telling you to go to your husband and ask for money because there is nothing more important than her life if his money can save so go and ask don't let your ego come between this or else it will be too late "

Elena gets annoyed and says "no Clara it is not my ego it is my respect i will not ask for money with the man who have betrayed me who haven't been loyal to me i'll arrange " Clara asks concerned "but how we both have been trying to arrange such a big amount for two years and we couldn't now its too late " Elena says "No way i won't ask him for money...Never"

Clara looks upset and says "by the way you told me that you have husband but never told me his name so who is he? i mean name ?" Elena feels like crying but says "Elijah ... Elijah Mikealson"

Clara just jumps from her seat and says "Oh God the hot and famous Elijah Mikealson OMG Elena , you're Mikealson and doing this freaking receptionist job are you mad and you are not asking for money to him WOW you're the biggest idiot" Elena is about to say something but then her phone rings she attends it and someone from Eliana's school says "Mrs Mikealson, I am Eliana's teacher Eliana suddenly fainted in class we have taken her to "Care Hospital" please reach there " Elena's eyes are wide opened as she listens this she leaves the lunch and tells Clara to give the reason to manager and rushes outside the office then takes a cab and reaches the hospital

Doctor says "are you Mrs mikealson?" Elena nods doctor continues "so Dr Grey has told you that Eliana has hole in her heart that's why she gets tired easily and gets fainted and only operation can help her so arrange the money as soon as possible she is not well ..if you want to save her arrange money so that we can operate " Elena cries doctor consoles her and goes from there Elena breaks down and sits on bench and thinks about Clara's words about asking money from Elijah but then she thinks "how can i ask a man who never loved me how will that man help his daughter and love his daughter "

Eliana comes with doctor outside the checking room Doctor says "Mrs mikealson , take her medicines from the counter " then he leaves while Elena hugs Eliana and says "how are you baby ?" Eliana replies with a smile "I am fine,Mother" she kisses her cheek and takes her and moves towards counter Elena takes medicines from counter then after she pays for it the nurse says "Please Mrs Mikealson arrange money for her operation as soon as possible .. her condition is critical " Elena nods and gets upset while Her phone rings and it is Clara "hows Eliana?Elena" Elena says with relief "she's fine for now" They talk for a while then shuts the reach home Eliana goes to change her clothes and freshen up while Elena makes soup for Eliana. Eliana comes down and asks for cookies but Elena says "you have just returned from hospital and you want cookies ...not cool huh " Eliana makes sad face and asks "so now?" Elena kneels down to her height and says while wrapping her hands around her neck "so now your mommy has made a corn soup for you and herself too" Eliana kisses her cheek and says "Thanks mother" They both smiles at each other then Eliana is having her soup so as Elena

Elena asks "so hows your first day of new class ...?" she smiles and replies "it was cool .. many children didn't come they may come after 1 or 2 days " Elena caresses her face while she is busy with her soup

Elena asks with smile "so did you make friends ?" Eliana gets a little sad and says "Um not really but may be in future .. some girls were saying that I don't have a father " She looks down and plays with soup spoon and stir it on the rim of bowl and hides her pain Elena also gets sad and asks "what did they say ,love" Eliana replies "just that my father doesn't live with me ..i have only one parent .."

Elena hugs her while she hugs her back and Eliana says "I love you mother but where is daddy " Elena is stunned at her question and tears fall from her eyes , says "I don't know honey "

Eliana wipes her tears and asks "why doesn't he live with us ...doesn't he love me ?" Elena gets confused but replies "you know honey when something good happens it always comes with something bad like Roses bloom but with thorns like i am living a beautiful life with you but i have tensions as you are so ill so same as in case of me then too because when i got to know that you'll be born something changed my life in another direction away from your daddy "

Eliana again asks "so will he come back?" Elena replies "i don't know love" Eliana asks again "does he know that i have a hole in my heart " Elena cries and says "Sweetheart he doesn't even know that he has a daughter .. i know it may be hard for you but it is reality " Eliana gets sad but then smiles to cheer Elena up

Eliana says "OK leave this mother come with me and sleep " Elena smiles and follows her
