Maya sunk to the ground defeated. Tears rolled down her cheeks.
She slammed her head back against the wall. "I am such an idiot! Damn it! Now she's going to die because of me! And I'm supposed to be her mother!"
Maya slumped forwards and began to sob into her hands, feeling tears roll down them.
She pulled them back and stared at her fingers for a long moment before she started to claw at the wall. It cut her fingers and broke her nails, but she kept doing it.
...
"Her blood pressure is off the wall. We can't keep it down!"
"Look at that! Look how messed up they are!"
"She must have had it for a long time."
"How the hell did she not know about it?"
"I bet her 'mother' did."
"Go alert Meredith and Derek," Bailey instructed a nurse.
...
Tuck walked Zola back to her parents room where they had both fallen sound asleep in each other's arms.
She quietly curled up in the chair next to their bed and just sat there.
Meredith opened her eyes and was startled to see Zola. She reached out and grabbed her hand, waking Derek up with the movement.
It was then that the nurse walked in.
"Is she alive?" Meredith asked before the nurse could say anything.
"Good news and bad news," the nurse said. "The good news is that she is stable."
Both doctors sighed but then tensed up.
"Bad news?" Derek whispered.
"She has a serious kidney failure which is causing her blood pressure to shoot through the roof. It appears that Maya had kept it under control for a long time by giving her drugs for it. She must have not known about it, because the few days that she was off the drugs caused her kidneys to nearly fail completely. We'll need to put her on dialysis immediately. And most likely, she will need a transplant. I think it's fate that she found you when she did, because her kidneys weren't going to last her much longer. And you are related to her."
...
"Push!" Cristina screamed.
Angela shrieked in agony, clenching her teeth and pushing with all her might.
"You're doing great," the doctor said. "You need to push again. One more time. I can see the head."
"I can't do it anymore," Angela breathed, falling back against the bed with tears in her eyes. "My boyfriend walked out on me. He walked out on me when he found out I was pregnant and I have no one."
"You have me," Cristina assured her. "I'm here for you, okay? You are not alone. You just need to push one more time. And then you'll have a beautiful new baby in your arms. Are you ready Angela?"
Angela nodded as tears fell down her face.
"One, two, three- push!"
Angela gasped and screamed and pushed.
Then there was crying in the room.
"It's a boy!"
The doctor cut the umbilical cord and handed the baby to the nurse waiting behind her who wrapped it in a blanket.
Angela cried as they placed her baby in her arms and she held him close.
"My baby," she whispered.
Cristina had tears in her eyes as she stood there.
"I'm uh... I'm gonna go check on Andrew and Missy."
"Cristina."
"Yes?"
"Thank you," Angela whispered, and kissed her son's head.
...
"She's alive," Derek sighed.
"Yeah but for how long?" Meredith whimpered softly. "Derek, we have to get tested to see if we are a match."
Derek nodded. "Of course we will Meredith. Our daughter will get a new kidney."
...
"It's a boy," Cristina said as she walked into the lobby and wiped the tears from her face.
"Cool." Andrew smiled and hugged the sleeping Missy tightly.
"You're uh, gonna stay with me for a little while, until we can find you parents. Okay?"
Andrew's eyes widened. "Seriously Cristina?"
"Just for a little while."
Andrew placed Missy down and though his arms around his new foster mom.
"Thank you."
Cristina patted his head. "You're welcome kid."
...
Meredith watched through the window as Annabelle lay in her bed, fast asleep, attached to dialysis machines.
"She looks so fragile," Meredith said softly as Lexie walked up.
"Mer, you're not a match."
Tears filled Meredith's eyes and she blinked quickly, trying to keep them at bay.
"Is Derek?"
"No."
"This isn't happening."
Meredith leaned back in her wheelchair and cried.
"There um... there was one more person who insisted on getting tested. It was a highly unlikely match, bit it came back positive."
Meredith whipped around quickly, eyes wide with hope.
"Who?" she gasped.
"Zola."
