The four ladies waited patiently for the two mystery people. They heard two cars stopping outside. It must be them they taught and they all made their way to the door. Outside Deluca and Alex both parked and gave each other an awkward stare. Alex didn't want to come because he knew he might run into Deluca but he is doing this for Arizona, so he came. She has done so much for him and him enduring a little awkwardness is a small price to pay. Bailey and Kepner were surprised to see the two.
Bailey
Really Grey? Really? You're great escape plan was Karev and Deluca.
Kepner
I don't understand. Why would having them both here at the same time make her feel better?
Bailey.
Grey, how did you pass your boards if you can't even get this one right?
Mer
Well if you two blabbermouths would give me a chance.-
Bailey
Yes go ahead explain yourself.
Alex
Why are you arguing and where is Robbins? We need to get going?
Bailey
In her room, go get her.
Alex
What? No? What if she is not dressed yet? I don't want to make things awkward.
Mer
Bailey, Alex doesn't know anything.
Barbara
He is picking us up, to take us to church.
Kepner
Am I the only one who feels super lost right now?
Deluca
No, I'm with you on that. Why is everyone here?
Bailey
And who is the two people who you two were talking about?
Making their way into Arizona's house, Sofia stumbled over a stone. Mer heard Callie's motherly voice saying "carefull mija, watch where you going" and she instantly look relieved.
Mer
Here they are.
Callie
Hi, what is everybody doing here?
Deluca
That's what I'd like to know.
Bailey
We are trying to get Arizona to come to the memorial.
Callie
What do you mean?
Barbara
She told me last night she's not going. This morning she refused to get dressed. We have tried everything.
Callie
No you haven't. You should have called me.
Mer
Callie!
Callie
No Mer! You said you're going to the hospital but you came here. Why didn't you just tell me? Kepner, you knew I can help with her and you Bailey, you can read between the lines. You did it perfectly in surgery but you didn't think of calling me.
Bailey
Well technically this is not…-
Callie
Not What? Not my place?
Karev saw Callie getting irritated and decided to take Sofia to church with him.
Alex
Sofia, what do you say we go check if everything's ready at church?
Barbara
I'll come with you two. Callie I trust that you got this.
Callie gave Barbara a shady look. Mer saw this look and knew the next thing that would come from Callie's mouth might not be good . Mer knew Callie is not one who can hold her tongue.
Mer
Callie, now is not the time to be bickering. The memorial is in an hour.
Callie
I think everybody should leave. Go to the memorial, I'll let you know when we are on our way.
Deluca
I just came to tell her that I won't make it. I have to scrub in on a surgery. So I'll be quick.
Callie
I'll tell her. Go now, she'll understand.
Every one left to go to church. Callie started making her way upstairs. She was expecting the worse. So she tried to prepare herself. She would do anything just to get Arizona to the memorial. She knew that if Arizona didn't go, Arizona will regret it someday. When she got to the door, she knocked.
Callie
Arizona, it is Callie. Can I come in please?
Arizona
Go away Callie, you shouldn't be here.
Callie
Yes I should, please let me in.
Arizona
No!
Callie decided to lie to her. She knew it is the only way to get her to open the door and she stood ready for when the door opens.
Callie
There is a little girl here to see you.
Arizona
Why isn't she at the memorial?
Callie
She won't go without you.
Callie heard Arizona's footsteps as she was a approaching the door. She stood ready to push back the door when Arizona unlocks it. She knew she is stronger than Arizona. She was just scared of hurting Arizona's leg in the process of pushing open the door. Arizona didn't think Callie would lie because when it came to Sofia she trusted Callie. She didn't ask to speak to Sofia because she didn't want to do it through a door. She wanted to see her baby girl's face and her daughter in arms when she speaks to her. When she unlocked the door, Callie took the handle and opened it. Callie basically forced her way inside Arizona's bedroom and Arizona stood there shocked.
Arizona
You want to break my other leg now too?
Callie
Go ahead. Rant if you want. Kick and Scream, if it makes you feel better. You can cry. Do what you want I'm here. Say hurtful things to me. I don't care. I just need you to be okay.
Arizona
I won't be okay. My life is a mess. I just can't be happy anymore. Am I such a bad person? And where is Sofia? Why did you lie?
Callie
Would you have opened the door if you knew she wasn't here? I had to lie so you could open the stupid door. You are not a bad person. You are the most amazing woman I know.
Arizona
See, this is exactly why I don't want you to be here. You are saying things. Things you don't mean just to get me to go to the memorial. It is easy for you to say but do you even think of what it does to me? I believe you when you say these things. Don't say things you don't mean, just stop with it.
Callie
I mean it. You are amazing and strong. You can do this. So let's get you dressed.
Arizona
I'm not going Callie.
Callie
Yes you are.
Is this the dress you were supposed to wear?
Arizona
I'm not going. I can't do this. At Tim's memorial I wanted to die just there. My dad is my hero, I can't do this.
Callie
You are not doing this alone. I'm here and so is Sofia.
Arizona
You are here now and next week you are gone. Then who will help me get dressed then? Who will make me come out of this room? I'm not going.
Callie
Okay, so Sofia can just take this example from you. She can just see that it is acceptable to run away when things are too hard to handle.
Arizona
What?
Callie
Sofia lost her granddad. She is at the memorial alone. You are the only one who understands her pain but you are here. She needs to see you. You need to lift your head up and be her superwoman. You lost your hero, don't make her lose hers too.
Arizona
Get out.
Callie
So you're staying?
Arizona
I need to get dressed for my dad's memorial, so get out or do you want us to be late?
Callie smiled as Arizona chased her out of the bedroom. She stood in the doorway and stared at Arizona, who is waiting for Callie to leave.
Callie
You know I could stay.
Arizona
Nice try, Calliope.
Callie
I meant, I could stay in Seattle. I could stay a while longer if you'd like me too.
Arizona (looking awkward and shy)
We are going to be late, go wait downstairs.
Callie went downstairs to wait for Arizona. Upstairs while getting dressed, Arizona couldn't help but wonder about what Callie had suggested. She wanted Callie to stay so bad but she knew the longer Callie stays the more attached she'll get to Callie. She got dressed and made her way down stairs. To Callie, she looked beautiful even though her eyes were puffy.
Callie
Are you ready to go?
Arizona
Yes I am. We can take my car because you have to come back here after the service in anyway. For something to eat, you know.
Callie
Okay but I'm driving because I do want to get to church in one piece.
Arizona
I'm not a bad driver.
Callie
And I'm not an orthopaedic surgeon.
The two ladies got into the car and made their way to the memorial.
Callie
What do you think about me staying a little longer?
Arizona
Why do you want to stay, Callie?
There was complete silence. Callie didn't know what the right answer would be. She was afraid that telling the truth about why she wanted to stay would upset Arizona. Just as she wanted to speak, Arizona spotted Sofia waiting for them outside. She told Callie to look at how beautiful their daughter is and the two ladies stared at their baby girl. They parked the car and made their way over to Sofia.
Sofia
Mommy, you came!
Arizona
Of course baby.
Sofia
I told grandma to keep a seat for me, you and mama. Is that okay?
Arizona
Yes baby, I wouldn't have it any other way.
Callie
We have to go inside. The service is already ten minutes late.
Arizona
I wonder why?
With Arizona saying that the two ladies exchanged a smile. Arizona was grateful that Callie practically forced her to come. The three made their way into the church. Sofia sat between her mothers. When the service started Arizona tried to take Callie's hand but she was afraid it would confuse Sofia so she refrained from doing it. Callie saw the movement of Arizona's hand and she hoped she read it right. Callie then threw her hand behind Sofia and around Arizona's shoulder. Arizona looked at her with a slight smiled and then she said thank you.
