Maggie waited for her mother, incessantly kicking at the bottom of the chair as her legs swung impatiently. She kneaded at the upholstery in a nervous cadence. When Scully finally entered the living room with her grandchild, after a quick diaper change, Maggie clapped with joy.
Carefully, Scully positioned Maggie on the chair and demonstrated to her how to hold the new baby. “I be gentle, Mommy,” Maggie reassured her.
Mulder, following behind Scully, wanted to drink this moment in, taking some pics of his little girl holding his first grandchild. Maggie’s eyes were wide and more brilliant than usual watching the baby in her arms. A proud smile across her face, with her strawberry locks falling in her eyes, filled him with a sunshine Mulder only felt with her. Maggie was delicate, meticulous and attentive, doing exactly as her mother instructed. She lifted her eyes to meet her father’s and her smile somehow widened. There was a communication between them that had no need for words. Mulder thought his heart might burst. For as long as he lived, he’d never known a love like what he had with his little girl.
His newborn grandchild’s tiny toes peeked from the blanket and she kicked in a jagged motion, her head a crazy mass of brown curls with cowlicks that resembled his own when he was young. She wobbled against Maggie’s supporting hand, starting to fret and cry. Mulder gently took her from Maggie, bringing her to his shoulder where she rested her head with a thumb in her mouth. Another girl to melt my heart and ruin me, but I wouldn’t have it any other way, he thought as he took a big whiff of new baby smell.
