Out of The Past
Sydney sat across from Zoey and waited for Zoey to finish her slice of pizza. Syd had picked Zoey up and had taken her to the mall. Some quality mother and daughter time was needed and the mall was the perfect place. Of course they hit the food court first. The first words out of Zoey's mouth every day when Syd picked her up from school wasn't "Hi Mom" it was "I'm hungry!".

The Defenders, Scion and school kept Syd plenty busy and the two of them needed some time together just the two of them every week. Syd made a promise to herself that no matter what happened, they would get that day. Getting Zoey away from the Defenders for a little bit was always a good thing. Thees and thous were starting to slip into Zoey's speech on regular basis.

She went over the todo list in her head. Tomorrow was going to be a busy day.

She looked over at Zoey and smiled when her daughter looked at her. "Love you, monkey."

	Syd nodded. "I know what it's like to be fortunate for all that you have." She looked over at Zoey and smiled. "Why don't you give me your number and I'll call you about Friday?" (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

Avery smiles at Zoey, his mind sticking on the fact that she's six years old.

"That sounds good." he says, pulling out his business card. The white card lists his name, cell phone and office numbers, as well as fax number in perfect black lettering.

"I'm really glad we ran into each other today, Sydney. I'm also very glad I met Zoey the Awesome! Keep thy speech and nose clean, and thou wilt go far." he said, nodding at her as he rose from his seat, looking at his watch.

"Oh great, I nearly lost track of time. I need to get back to the hotel for a conference call. Ladies, please have a good night, and Sydney, I hope I'll see you soon." he smiled.

	"Thanks," she said as she took the card. "It was good seeing you again, Avery." Syd waited for that bolt of lightning from the blue to strike her down. "Take care and see you on Friday." (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	"Aye! Verily! Fare thee well," Zoey giggled. (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

Avery smiled at both ladies and waved, then headed outside and out of view. He pulled his phone from his pocket and dialed a number. He was speaking before the other side could say hello.

"I need a birth certificate on Zoey Ashcroft ASAP. Make it happen and keep it as quiet as possible. Get me medical records, too, if you can find them. If she's been in the hospital for runny nose, I want to know about it." he said, before hanging up.

He remembered the brief vision he'd seen of Sydney in labor, but he never considered that the child might be his.

He headed back to his car, and to the hotel. He had nothing but time between now and Friday. Hopefully, that was enough time to figure out Sydney's reasoning for keeping something like this from him.

He really hoped it was good.
