Alicia was out cold for about an hour. Rachel had gone back to her desk and started on some paperwork, however she couldn't help but notice how much her daughter looked like her.
Rachel was also thinking of the things Alicia had said to her during the drunken rant. Rachel felt incredibly guilty, she also felt ashamed and was upset that she had missed most of her beautiful daughter's childhood. She swore to herself that she would make it up to Alicia as try and form the bond that should have been their when she first held her daughter
Before she could think about what was said in more detail, Alicia started to stir
'W..wh..where am I?
Rachel rushed to her daughter's side
'You're in my office, my lovely girl, how are you feeling?'
'Like I'm going to die' Alicia muttered, 'hang on why are you here? She had suddenly clicked that her mother was caring for her
Rachel nervously laughed 'because it's my office sweetheart - right I'm going to get you home now ok can you sit up?'
Just at the moment, Alicia's stomach decided to empty it's contents all over her mum's skirt
'Im so sorry mu...miss' Alicia quickly corrected her mistake 'please don't make me go home' she nervously added
Rachel decided she'd investigate her daughter's worried tone late but right now she wanted to become a proper mother to her child
'You stay here and let your stomach calm down, and I'll clear myself up, then I'll take you home
Again Alicia started to protest
'Dont worry sweetheart, you're staying with me, I'm going to take you to your new home'
At this Alicia's eyes began to sparkle And suddenly her face was flooded with colour 'do you really mean it?'
'Yes now stay there and don't move' Rachel replied sternly, however this time her voice wasn't harsh as it had been a few weeks ago, it was caring, the voice of a worried mother.
Seriously all the reviews I get make my day :) thank you xxxx
