Chapter Seven
Robin walked with Alan to the tenth floor Nurse's station.
"Epiphany, this is Robin Scorpio." Alan said. "She is our new doctor."
"Nice to meet you Dr. Scorpio." Epiphany said shaking her hand.
"You as well." Robin said.
"Dr. Lee, Dr. Julian, Dr. Winters this is Robin Scorpio. She is our new doctor."
They all said hi and greetings.
"Dr. Winters, Dr. Julian can I get you to show Robin around, my next appointment is here."
"Sure." Lainey said.
"Robin glad to have you here. Make sure you stop by security."
"Will do." Robin said.
Alan walked off and Robin turned to the doctors.
"I am Lainey."
"I'm Leo."
"I'm off." Kelly said. "Babies to deliver."
"She's Kelly." Lainey said.
"I'm Robin." Robin said.
"So why Port Charles?" Leo asked as they began walking down the hall.
"I used to live here when I was little." Robin said. "I have family here."
"Mac Scorpio right?" Lainey asked.
"Yes, he is my uncle." Robin said.
"Here security." Leo said.
Robin took her picture and got her ID.
"I need to see my office and the labs." Robin said.
Lainey and Leo walked her to her office.
"Next to Patrick I see." Leo said.
"Dr. Drake?" Robin asked.
"Yes." Lainey said. "Have you meet?"
"Once." Robin said.
"How about the Labs." Leo said.
They walked down and Robin looked through the lab.
"All seems good." Robin said.
Lainey pager when off and they said good bye as she went off to deal with a client.
"So, anywhere else you need to go?" Leo asked.
"No, thank you for showing me around." Robin said.
"It was my pleasure." Leo said.
Robin turned and walked to the elevator. She smiled when the doors opened. There was Patrick and Ella.
"Mama." Ella said.
"Hi baby." Robin said.
"No hello for me?" Patrick pouted.
"Hello." Robin said leaning in and kissing him.
Leo looked over and wasn't shocked that Patrick got her already.
"I signed her out, so we are ready to go." Patrick said.
"Ok, well we have to stop by Kelly's for a picnic basket." Robin said.
"A picnic?" Patrick asked as they loaded into Robin's car.
"Yes." Robin said.
When they got to Kelly's they went inside. Robin cell went off so she stepped out to answer it.
"Patrick can I have a cookie?" Ella asked.
"Just one." Patrick said.
Ella smiled and ran off to get her cookie.
Robin came back in and sat down.
"So would you hate me if I canceled our plans?" Robin asked.
"Why, what's up?" Patrick asked.
"Mac needs me at the house and I may be there a while." Robin said. "I guess the girls got into trouble."
"Oh." Patrick said. "I have a better idea."
"What?" Robin asked.
"How about I take Ella to the park and we set up the picnic while you go deal with your sisters." Patrick said.
"That would be good, there would be a lot of yelling." Robin said. "Are you sure?"
"Yeah." Patrick said. "Well have fun and will think of a way to cheer you up when you get back."
"Ok." Robin said.
Ella came back over with her cookie and sat down.
"Baby, mommy has to go help Aunty Maxie and Georgie for a little bit, so Patrick is going to take you to that park to set the picnic up ok."
"Ok mommy." Ella said.
Robin kissed her head and then gave Patrick a kiss and headed out.
"Where's my cookie?" Patrick teased.
"I didn't know you wanted one." Ella said.
"Well then we have to share yours." Patrick said.
"No way." Ella said.
"But if you share we get to get another one of a different flavor." Patrick said.
"Ok.' Ella said breaking her cookie in half and giving Patrick half.
They sat eating, goofing around and having fun.
"Come on you need to eat." Ric said pulling up to the small diner.
"Ric, I want to check out this lead." Alexis said.
"We have been all over the world chasing leads." Ric said. "Stopping for food isn't going to make this lead go away."
"Fine." Alexis said getting out of the car.
Ric fallowed her and they made their way up to the small diner.
"Can I choose the next cookie?" Ella asked.
"As long as there is chocolate in it." Patrick.
"Of course it is the best." Ella said before running off.
"Can we get two glasses of milk?" Patrick asked the waitress who was walking by.
"Sure." She said. "Have a seat and I will be with you in a second." She told Ric and Alexis as they walked in.
Ric and Alexis took a seat in the corner and waitress brought over some milk to Patrick's table. Ella came back and they ate the next cookie.
"Hi, welcome o Kelly's want can I get you?" The waitress asked Ric and Alexis.
"Chef salad, Club sandwich and a coke." Ric said.
"Hamburger platter and a coke." Alexis said.
"Ok, it will be up soon." The waitress said walking away.
"So, what is this lead?" Ric asked.
"Well Nikolas is back and says he has something. I am hoping it is good news." Alexis said.
The waitress brought the cokes over.
"I don't know how much longer I can do this." Alexis said. "It has been five years. I only saw her once, she could look like anyone. Who knows that little girl over there could be her for all we know and I would never know it."
"Alexis, we will find your little girl. "Ric said. "Maybe Nikolas found out where Sonny went the night he took her."
"I still can't believe he would take her and leave her somewhere without knowing." Alexis said. "Kristina is his daughter too."
"Well we know she isn't living with them and she isn't in Porto Rico." Ric said. "This has to be a laugh for my brother. Us scrambling on every lead and tip. I bet he knows right where she is."
"He wont tell." Alexis said. "Some kind of payback for what I have done."
"You did nothing to deserve your child being taking away from you." Ric said.
Patrick pulled Ella onto his lap and began talking her. She screamed laughing and screaming.
"Stop, ha, ha, ha, ha, Patrick, ha, ha, ha, ha, ha."
Alexis looked over longingly at Ella.
"My little girl would be her age." Alexis said. "I don't even know what she looks like."
"We will find her."
"Here is your food." The waitress said setting plates in front of them. "Anything else I can get you?"
"No." Ric said. "Thanks."
The waitress walked over to Patrick's table.
"Dr. Drake your picnic basket is ready."
"Ok." Patrick said handing over the money for it and their snack.
The waitress left to get it.
"So, shall we go?" Patrick asked Ella.
"Yeah, can we stop for cotton candy?" Ella asked as they got their picnic basket.
"Oh sweet Addella, I think the sugar would make you to sweet." Patrick said.
"No way. "Ella said. "Besides Uncle Sonny says I can never be too sweet."
"Oh did he." Patrick said. "Well if he says you can't be too sweet, I suppose we can get some if it is pink."
Ella smiled and they got up to go.
Alexis looked over when she heard the name Addella.
"Did he call her Addella?" Alexis asked.
"I believe so." Ric said.
Alexis stood up and walked over.
"Excuse me." Alexis said. "Did you call her Addella?"
"Yes." Patrick said. "Why do you ask?"
"It just the name is so familiar." Ric said coming over." It was my mothers."
"Oh." Patrick said.
Alexis couldn't stop starring at Ella.
"Patrick she is scaring me." Ella said moving to hid behind his legs.
"It think we should go." Patrick said.
"No." Alexis said. "No, I need to know."
"Know what?" Patrick asked.
"Who is her mother?" Alexis asked.
"I am." Robin said coming in.
"Mama, she is scaring me." Ella said running over to her.
Robin picked Ella up and she buried her face in her shoulder.
"What's going on?" Robin asked.
"We were getting ready to leave with these two came up and started asking questions." Patrick asked.
Mike came out of the kitchen and saw them standing there.
"What's going on?" Mike asked.
"That is what I want to know." Robin said.
"Her name is Addella." Alexis said.
"So?" Robin asked. "What about her name?"
"It was my mothers." Ric said.
"Look, Ella's name was suggested by a friend of mine." Robin said. "I loved it so much I kept it."
"Oh." Alexis said. "I am sorry we scared her."
"You should be." Robin said. "Can we go?"
Patrick nodded and led them out.
"Robin I am sorry. I had no clue what they wanted."
"I believe you." Robin said. "How about we forget this and we have our fun day?"
"Sounds good." Patrick said.
"Ok." Ella said.
"Are you ok baby?" Robin asked
"Yeah, she just looked at me funny." Ella said. "But I don't want to think about it."
"Ok." Robin said. "Let's have fun instead."
