Disclaimer-"I don't own Grey's"

Seattle Grace Hospital, Seattle ,Washington

As Alex, Meredith and their children were talking to each other in Alex's office suddenly someone knocked on the door interrupting their peaceful family time in days.

"Come in."Alex said irritated on being interrupted.

" I have rounded on all your patients but I didn't understand a transfer patient from Boston." said Christina entering the office.

"Which patient and what's the problem?"Alex asked.

"A patient named Colonel Meghan Riggs she is scheduled for an abdominal wall transplant if or when a suitabke donor .What I want to ask is why not let it heal on itself and we can use mesh ,it will take time bt it will close."

"And why Dr…."Meredith started replying instead of Alex.

" ,Christina Yang."Christina replied.

"Dr. Yang why don't we do an abdominal wall transplant if it can be done. I mean the recovery will be ugly,painful and it will take months to is not safe for her she travelled from Boston with way too many precautions with still a lot of risks."Meredith replied.

"I am sorry who are you."Christina asked indifferently.

"I am the surgeon who suggested this idea of abdominal wall transplant and who is the primary surgeon on the case."Meredith replied.

"I am sorry but this is an insane idea and it has only been done once or twice I believe bt with simultaneous small-bowel transplant."Christina said.

"So wouldn't it be easier to do now."Meredith replied.

"I think it's insane."Christina replied.

"Well my every great idea was once considered insane by others and I have proved such people wrong many times."

"Really who are you?"Christina asked as Meredith's family watched the exchange with amusement.

"You will eventually come to know."Meredith answered not wanting to unveil herself before the chief's big presentation with the board.

Christina started replying something when suddenly her pager beeped and she had to run out.

"She looks like an overconfident Doctor,"Meredith said after Christina left.

"Well she believes she is Gods gift to surgery and this hospital ,she wants to go cardio and whenever she is assigned to me she is a pain in the…..…"

"There are children present here."

"Sorry, so yeah she thinks she is wasting time when she is on any other service other than the way don't you have to talk to chief before presentation. "

" you take the kids to the cafeteria for somethng to eat ."Meredith said.

"Will do."Alex kissed Meredith.

With that Meredith left the turned towards the kids.

"So who's ready for some Hospital food."Alex asked the kids knowing full well their answer will be looks of disgust.

After Meredith left Alex's office shecame to know that the rumour mill of the hospital was in full flow about her as she heard nurses and doctors look at her and whisper among themselves thinking she couldn't hear them.

"She is Karev's wife."

"I heard she is meeting the she a doctor?"

"She looks too young to be an attending may be a she married him to get ahead."

"I heard she is a nurse."

"Now I understand why he doesn't look at us,she is beautiful."

"Her daughter is an exact copy of her."

"She isn't that beautiful."

"I heard he got her pregnant while she was his intern and she forced him to marry her."

"All the women there were swoooning at the way he kissed her."

One thing she hated about being herself were the rumours that started wherever she went ,she was the one gossiped about whether it was for her talent,intelligence,beauty,her marrige,her children,Carter or her mother she hated it all but she remebered once when she asked Carter how wasn't he bothered when people talked about him as he definitely had had more people talking about him than she could ever imagine.

He replied-"Mer when you are talented,rich,famous or important then-People will say something or the other, it's their business to talk,Ignore it, lest our days will pass away just like that we will be bothered by people who are jealous or don't know us or want to be we don't ignore them we wont remain us we willl definitely fall down."

Sometimes his wisdom surprised her,she knew he was intelligent but he was never one to use it and to remember that in highschool he was just considered a brainless one in their highschool would believe he went to Harvard Law and is the partner in one of the best law firms in the country after his other career ended when he was stiil 21 and he was at the top of his game and was known all over the world.

So following his advice she learnt how to ignore such she continuosly ignored the talks and walked towards the chief's offfice when she suddenly saw him walking infront of her.

" ."she called him.

He turned around trying to recognise who called him when his eyes fell on her and his expression changed from that of curiosity to that of surprise to happiness when he recognised her.

"Meredith."He said and walked towards her and engulfed her in a hug which surprised Meredith but she went on with it.

"You are finally so good to see you ,you look as beautiful as ever ."Richard said happily.

"Well thank look goood as well except that you have grown old."

"Well I see you are stiil the same old Meredith."

"Did you want me to change?"

"No but I thought becoming a world famous surgeon would have changed you or getting married or becoming a mother."

"Well all of it has changed me but not a lot."

"Well I am glad about it. Your daughter looks a lot like you when you were 5 except she has your mothers eyes."

"I know."

There was an awkward silence between the Richard ended-"There are some people very anxious to meet you before the presentation."

"Lets go meet them then."

Derek entered the cafeteria thinking about the prsentation the chief was holding for the new chief of General Surgery he didn't understand why was the chief doing such an event when he didn't do it for him,Addison or of them joined as chief of their department and all of them were famous ,accomplished surgeons but they still did not get such a presentation where every surgical attending's,resident's and intern's atttendence was compulsary,Maybe it is to boost the staffs moral which was down since the rankings were released or maybe the new chief of general was a candidate for chief of surgery.

Lost in his thoughts he didn't notice where he was going and collided in a young boy probably 11 or 12 years of age with dirty blond hair and blue-green eyes that reminded him of was holding the hand of a little boy probably 3-4 years old.

"Sorry."the boy said in a tone that sounded genuinely sorry.

"No I am sorry. I wasn't looking where I was going."Derek replied.

"And neither was I."the boy said sweetly in matter of fact he definitely reminded him of her the hair,the eyes,the matter of factly tone.

"Are you here alone."Derek asked with curiosity.

"No I am here with my father and my siblings."he replied in a bored tone pointing to a table just beside them where a little girl the girls dirty blond hair was visible as her back was facing them.

"Well where is your father then."Derek asked again.

"He is there."the boy said pointing to a black haired guy making his way towards them holding multiple trays of foods filled with burgers,fries and juice.

Derek recognised the man as the new plastics attending didn't know much about him as he hadn't worked with him but he had heard from Mark that he was a good surgeon which was the highest compliment he had ever seen Mark Sloan give to a fellow plastic surgeon.

"You are 's son.".

"Yes."

"Well then hello,I am a coworker of your father, Shepherd."Derek said extending his hand.

Derek saw a hint of recognition pass the boy's face before it turned to surprise and then something which seemed like a look of disgust and hatred which Derek didn't understand a reson for.

Then the boy said shaking his hand "I am Jeffrey Karev."
