"Dr Mark?" Milo asked while Mark was making skin for one of his patients.
"Yeah" Mark said not really concentrating on Milo but the skin instead.
"Can I tell you something?"
"Yeah just let me finish this and we can talk okay buddy" Mark said still concentrating on the skin.
"Done" he said and pulled of the gloves and mask. They were in the lab and it was empty and quiet.
"That's pretty cool right? I mean I can make skin" Mark smirked; Milo rolled his eyes and stood next to Mark.
"Can I touch it?" Milo asked
"No way, this is off limits kid" Mark said and slightly pushed Milo back. Milo had a sad look on his face and sat back down at his chair again.
"I'm sorry buddy, maybe when you become a plastic surgeon like me then you'll be able to touch it"
"Sorry"
"You don't need to say sorry, you were just a curious kid" Mark said trying to cheer Milo up.
"Maybe I was being rude; mommy says I should always say sorry if I was being rude"
"You weren't being rude. Come here and give your Dr Mark a hug" Mark smiled, Milo gave him a smile back and went into his arms.
"So what did you want to tell me kid?" Mark asked
"You promise you won't tell my mom?" Milo asked in a serious tone. Mark nodded and Milo carried on.
"Addison's not nice to me" Milo admitted
"What do you mean?" Mark frowned
"Last time I went over, when Derek was gone she made me upset"
"What did she do?" Mark asked concerned
"She said mean things to me but I didn't cry because she was scary and if I cried she might have hit me"
"Did she hit you?!"
"No, but she says really bad things to me" Milo said and tears started to appear.
"I'm sure she didn't mean it" Mark said pulling Milo into a hug again
"She does mean it, she's always mean to me and I don't like her" Milo said through a sob. "Don't tell my mom, she'll be upset again"
"I think you should tell her Milo"
"No. You're supposed to be my best friend Dr Mark. You promised" Milo said and backed away from Mark.
"Milo" Mark sighed. "She's being a Bi- I mean a nasty lady. You should tell your mom, this is serious Milo"
"No!" Milo shouted and wiped away his tear and backed away further from Mark.
"Tell her Milo"
"NO!" Milo shouted for the last time and ran off.
