Time Period: A Flashback
Place: A Bus Station
Situation: Meredith is leaving for college (Dartmouth)
Meredith's p.o.v
"I am running out of time. Please let me hold my son" I request. "You are not running out of time"
Morris corrects me. I grab for my son anyway. I hold Brandon dear and close to my chest. "With
everything that we have been through, I regret our final goodbye. There is no more us after today.
I care enough to liberate you" Morris hammers into my conscience.

Year: Summer 1996
Place: A Bus Station
Scenario: Meredith Leaves for Dartmouth College
Meredith's p.o.v
"I am going to Dartmouth. I am one step closer to becoming a doctor!" excited, I exclaim. Morris
finds it hard to juggle my good news and our two year old son. He has put his dreams on hold for
us. Apart of him feels I am abandoning our family. "If you go to Dartmouth, I won't wait for you" he
warns. Mom waits to see how I will respond. "It will be your loss" I disclose getting onto the bus. I
don't regret leaving them behind. I am a full grown adult. My happiness counts more.
