Regret - The Rookie

Chapter 3

Angela's POV

Nyla walked back in with the results. She showed Tim and I the results, we were very happy right now.

Tim: "Hey Tamara, we have got the results back and have found your mum." Her eyes lit up and a big smile came across her face.

Nyla: "Do you want the good news or the good news?" She was so happy that she could answer.

Angela: "The reason you were pulled to walk into the station was because your mum works here. We are all very good friends with her and know that she has been missing you." She hugged Tim tightly, then hugged Nyla and I.

Tamara: "OMG, this is amazing. May I ask what her name is?"

Nyla: "Her name is Lucy Chen. So from what you said and what we found out, you would have been born and named Tamara May Chen."

Tamara: "Could I meet her, please?" I just could say no.

Nyla: "Okay. Angela and I will go to your mum and bring her out, then we will text Tim telling him to bring you out." She nods and could contain her excitement. We said bye and headed straight to Lucy.

Lucy's POV

I was sitting in the break room working when the girls walked in with big smiles on their face.

Nyla: "We have something to show you, let's go." I get up.

Lucy: "Okay." I just wasn't in the mood right now for whatever is going on, but I just followed as I wasn't going to argue with these two.

Angela texted Tim to let him know and he got her ready for this moment, holding her hand. He walked out which got the attention from Grey, West and Nolan,

Angela: "We have a surprise for you, I hope you like it." Now, I'm just confused what's going on but didn't question them. We were walking through the bullpen when I heard someone shout.

Tamara shouted when she was the girls while still holding Tim's hand, her face was beaming.

Tamara: "Mum!"

I was confused and turned to the girls, they nodded at me. Next thing I knew, the little girl from this morning is running up to me. The girls told me to go and I went.

Tamara kept shout 'mum!'

The little girl launches at me and hugs me tightly, I hug her back tightly.

Tamara: "Your my mum Lucy Chen." I was a bit shocked. The others were there watching.

Lucy: "Wait, Tamara. It can't be, can it?" I'm still in shock.

Tamara: "Yes mum, it's me. Here." She hands me all the things I gave her to remember me by. I broke down crying, I was so happy that I finally had my daughter in my arms again.

Lucy: "Oh sweetie. I'm so happy. I -" I was interrupted by her

Tamara: "Mum, I don't blame you. I heard what you said that day I was born. I'm glad you never gave up looking for me. It's not your fault." 

Man, my kid was so wise and smart for coming to a police station. I looked at all my friends and felt nervous.

Angela: "Hey Luce, it's okay. No one here is judging you. You had every reason for not telling us, but now you have her we are here to support you."

Lucy: "Thank you girls, you said that you would help and you did. I'm forever thankful for you two."

Tamara: "Mum, your friends are very lovely and that man over there is a major softie." Everyone laughed because she was point at Tim.
