Chapter Six
When Martin picked up Sara at the daycare after he had eaten his lunch with Danny not too long ago, Sara was so excited. The reason why Sara is so happy because of what is Martin going her to on this very day.
Martin is bringing Sara to work for the rest of the day. Over the months they get to know each other before the adoption became legal, Sara had founded a lot of stuff about Martin. She knew that Martin is single, five years older than Sara's birth father, and other random things but most importantly in little Sara's opinion, Martin is a FBI agent. From all of this, Sara is proud that Martin is her father and in return, Martin is proud to be Sara's father.
For the entire walk to the FBI building from the daycare, all of Sara did is singing 'I am going to my father's workplace and it is going to fun' over and over while holding Martin's hand so she don't get away from Martin but that won't happen because Sara always wanted to be with Martin since in Sara's opinion, Martin is like the coolest person in the whole wide world.
When Martin saw what Sara is doing, he smiled at her knowing that Sara loves him even through Sara hadn't calling him 'daddy', 'dad' or even 'father' yet but by the way Sara's behavior is right now, he knew it already. Sara and he needed each other and always be there for each other as long they had each other.
When the two Fitzgeralds got to the grounds of the FBI building, Sara looked up to the tall building and was amazed by it. Martin saw what Sara is amazed about and from her face that Martin thinks that Sara had never a tall, glass covered building before. He heard somewhere that when Sara was almost a year old, for her first Christmas, her birth father brought her to Chicago to make her first Christmas a real one with a snowy day since from all of the research from the Internet, Chicago had the first snowfall. There is even a picture of her and her birth father at the top of the Sears Tower. From hearing all about it, Martin really like to see the picture if anybody had a picture of it since it is very rare right now.
After staring at his daughter's face while bending down a little, Martin went up again and said to her, "Sara". A few seconds later, Sara turned to her father's face and said to him in a sweet voice, "yes, Martin." When he fell in love with that voice of hers, all of he could said to her that there are much better things inside to sight see. Sara agreed with him, took his hand, and with Martin, walked to the building to see more.
When they got to the elevators and stepped inside, there are a lot of other agents inside there. During the ride, Sara acted so cute that some of the agents are amazed by that and one of the agents asked Martin if the cute, little girl is his. While Sara acted so sweet, Martin looked at his daughter and said to that agent proudly, "yeah. That is my daughter."
A minute later, the elevators to the 12th floor also known as the Missing Persons floor, Martin took his daughter's little hand and with her, Martin and Sara walked out of the transportation. When they got thirty feet away from the elevators, Martin got down to Sara's height and told her something.
"Sara. We had to go to my boss, Jack's office right now." Confused, Sara asked Martin why? In response, Martin told her that the people who works with him beside Danny didn't knew about them, not a single thing. One step away from being more confused, Sara asked Martin in a soft voice, "so I am a secret?" When he heard that, Martin nodded 'no' to her. Sara gave him a face that reads 'what is it then?' and when Martin saw it, he had to think of something since he had no idea.
After a minute of thinking, Martin got an idea. To do it, Martin leaned over to Sara's left ear and whispered to it, "You are a surprise to them." When Sara heard it, she got happy about it and said to her father, "really?" Martin nodded yes to that. A few seconds later, Sara put a smile on her face which said 'yay'. After she put the 'yay' smile, Martin got up again, took her hand again, and walked over to Jack's office to tell him.
When Sara and Martin got to the glass walls of Jack's office, Martin told Sara to sit down on the chairs in front of the glass walls and to stay there. Sara did what her father told her to do and sat on the chairs very sweetly. Martin saw Sara sitting there sweetly and smiled at that. After he had smiled, Martin got to the door and turns the handle to open the door so he can get in to tell Jack.
Once Martin got into Jack's office, his boss was already there, doing some of his own work Van Doren had given him. While Jack was working, Martin walked toward to Jack's desk. When he got to Jack face to face, Martin cleared his voice and said to the older man, "Jack."
Jack heard his name being called and looked up to see who is calling his name. When he looked up, Jack saw Martin looking at him and said to Martin, "yes, Martin. What is it?" "Jack. Can I bring someone here for the rest of the day?" asked Martin. Jack stared at Martin while trying to think when the last time Martin asked a question like that. Since Martin had worked for him for six years now, Special Agent Martin Fitzgerald had NEVER asked a question like that so this is new to them. To see what it is, Jack asked Martin who the person he is bringing today is?
To answer Jack's question, Martin turned around, walked over to the door, turn the handle around, and got outside. Thirty seconds, the door was opened again and into the office were Martin and a little girl. Being surprised by this, Jack stood up and when the two humans got to his desk, Jack asked Martin who the little girl is. With a smile on his face, Martin said to his boss, "Jack. This is my daughter, Sara."
"Hi." said Sara very quietly. After hearing that very quiet voice, Jack turned to Martin and before he can ask, Martin explained to Jack, "Sara is very shy around strangers." After Martin had explained it to him, Jack understood it now. To tell Sara knows that he is not evil, Jack smiled at her. Sara smiled back when she saw his.
While the two generations of humans smiled at each other, Martin asked Jack if Sara can stay with him for the rest of the day because he can't find anybody to watch her at the last minute and doesn't want to be alone in the apartment. After Martin had explained it to him, Jack said that he is fine with that and is allowed to bring Sara into the office so the rest of the team can meet his daughter. Martin said to Jack, "thanks" and took Sara's hand to go out to the office.
Before Martin and Sara got to the door, Jack told to stop and turn around. They did what Jack told them to do and when they had turn around, Jack was at his desk drawers, looking for something. When Jack founded what he wanted, he walked over to the Fitzgeralds with a little stuffed animal in his hand.
When he got there, Jack got to Sara's level and gave her the stuffed lamb that belongs to Hanna, Jack's oldest daughter. Sara got it and started playing and cuddling with it. While she was doing that, Martin asked Sara to tell Jack, "thank you." She did what Martin told her to do and in return, Jack said to Sara, "you're welcome." Martin smiled at both of them, took Sara for the third time, turned the handle, and with the little girl, they had walked out from Jack's office to the team to show his daughter off. When those two had left, Jack sighed, went back to his desk, and continuing working on the hard work that Van Doren had given him.
When Martin and Sara got to his team mates, they are busy working on the rest of the desk work. A few seconds later, Sara let go of her father's hand and out to the team. When she founded the person she just saw in a long time, Sara opened her arms and ran toward Martin's friend and colleague, Katie Carter. During the run, Sara said to her, "Auntie Katie."
When Katie got to Sara's level, grabbed her, and got her up, all of Martin is thinking about is Auntie Katie?
