Callie's POV
I can't believe that I'm standing in front of my ex wife again.
This morning I woke up nervous. I thought that some of them weren't going to came. I'm glad that they did. They look almost the same including Arizona. So, I couldn't get breakfast because I was feeling that I was going to throw up so I went straight to get ready. I'm wearing a black lace long dress. My makeup is perfect and my hair is straight... I look hot. But I can't think about that right now.
Arizona is still in in shock of seeing me. She's pale and her eyes are wide open like if she saw a ghost .at this point I'm kinda are a ghost. At lest to them. Everybody is mouth open and eyes wides.
"Callie! Oh my God! What are you doing here? Addison is the first to speak after several minutes.
"The judges gave me the forgiveness for good behavior."
Again several minutes. So I speak: "So, any of you are going to say something?" I started to walk around the table to see everyone. "Dear Izzie, aren't you going to speak?" I say locking at her.
"I don't know what to say" she says.
"You don't have to do anything. Don't say anything." George, Izzie's husband said. When I shared the apartment with Cristina I meet George through Preston. He's a lawyer and we had a thing but he had like a kind of obsession with me. He started to rush things and I freaked out. But when I broke up with him that obsession grow even more.
"oh, my dear George. Izzie, have you accepted the hell of being married with him?" I ask. George testified against me in front of everyone. His testimony was the end of my marriage if you ask me. Arizona was doubting but she still had some faith. At least was trying to keep.
"I don't know what are you talking about, Izzie and I are happy" He said. "You should be in prison"
"What? Seeing me bring guiltiness to you? I mean, for your false testimony , you know..." The room went silent again. "And yes, I should. But they gave me a second chance and I'm going to use it. "
"When did you come back?" Teddy asked
"Saturday" I said.
"When are you leaving?" Preston asked.
"My dear Preston, the best lawyer in the world. The most smart one. That smart that didn't anything for me when I needed you." I said bitter. And he said nothing and I prefer that. I looked at Arizona. She has remained silent.
"What are you doing here, Torres? Looking good! "Cristina said. I can't help but smile in my inside. She believes me.
"To do justice"
"Callie, you should know.. " Teddy started but I cut her off.
"What, Teddy? What can you possible tell me if you are just Arizona's puppet?" I said I'm a bitter tone. I never had something toward her but I also considered my friend and she just didn't want to help me with Arizona anymore. And I kind of get it but still.
"Shut up! And leave us alone!" Preston said yelling at me.
"Be careful, Burke" Mark looked at him wanting to hit him but I looked at Mark and gave him a look of thank you. Mark alwyas have thought that Burke is a opportunist and now I believe him. He is just like George.
"I bet you are about to explode" I said with a evil smile. Then I looked at Arizona. "And you Arizona? I haven't hear you and I see that you haven't recovered your color." I walked towards her and grab her cup of champagne and I offered it to her. "Here, take a sip, you are going to need it."
"What are you doing here?" Arizona asked while she took the cup from my hand and put it on the table. "You should be in prison paying for the crime you did."
"Wow, I'm taken from your sensibility for me." I said ironically. "It's true, I should be in jail but the justice system gave me a second chance" I said. "Anyways, we shouldn't be talking about sad things. We've been apart eight years and now that we are together again we should make a toast.
"We are leaving" Arizona said to Teddy
"We are leaving too. Come on, Meredith, Amelia." Derek said.
"let's go, Izzie." George said standing up. "Preston, Saddie, I'll give you a ride." Addison, Mark, Cristina and Owen are still silence and not moving. Good thing.
"Nobody's leaving!" I yelled .
"Are you going to force us to stay?" Arizona asked looking at me.
"Of course I will. " I said and I grabbed Arizona's iPhone from the table. "It's time to end the lies, you all can say anything but I am going to say the truth. And if you leave, I'd make them bring my son here." I looked at everyone and then to Arizona."I will and you know it. So it's your choice" I looked to everyone again.
Arizona is the first to talk in the tense silence. "You don't have the right to see your son, you lost that right eight years ago" said with a hint of cold.
I interrupted. "When you made him believe that I was dead!." I yelled . That hit me in the gut but I don't let my emotions take me.
"I preferred him to think that you were dead instead of know that his Mami is a murder!" And it hit me again. Deeper.
"I see that you weren't waiting for that" Saddie said smiling. "But you deserve it. Answer this: do you want Max to be ashamed of you or maybe his anger towards you?" she asked and I stayed silent. "Then go! And leave us alone!
"Never!" I yelled. "That's not going to happen"
"You heard Arizona, Callie" George said. "You don't have the right to see your son"
"Shot up, George!" I yelled. "Don't be hypocrite. You know what you did. Your testimony and lies sent me to jail for eight years. You don't have the right to talk to me, not even to look me in the eyes!
Izzie stand up and hit the table hard. "Enough!" She yelled. "What's your intention with this dinner? We saw you and we know you are free already! Leave us alone!"
No, Izzie! I'm sure that all of you want to wake up and realize that it was just a bad dream but it's nor the easy and you know why?" I said with anger.
Preston stand up too and hit the table. "We don't know any of your reasons and we don't care about them!"
"Sit down, Preston!" I yelled. "If you know what's best for you, sit. down!
Arizona interjected. "Please, sit down. Let's listen to Callie and then we'll leave"
"Thank you" I smiled ironically. "But I insist, don't I deserve a little welcome toast?" They stayed silent and I grabbed my cup. "For all of you, that were the greatest friends and turned your backs when I needed you. Thank you, dear friends." I looked at the group. "Thank you, dear wife." I said with anger and looked at Arizona. She took a breath.
"I am going to toast with you." Izzie said and lifted her cup to me. "For you and for that sadness of seeing you again" She said faking a smile.
"I didn't expected less of you, dear Izzie" I smiled back and lift my cup too. And then I looked to Arizona. "And you? Aren't you going to toast with me? Let's toast for our son, Arizona. You can't say no." I lift my cup. "For my son, for OUR son."
Arizona stand up and lifted her cup and click with mine. "For our son" She said and it's the first time that I truly look into Arizona's eyes. And I felt something while I remembered moments with her. God, life has been horrible on us. Arizona is like trying to read me, she was very good at that so I didn't take the risk and I give her iPhone and started to walk around the table.
"Callie, I want you to know all the truth." Arizona said.
"What? That any of you are my friends anymore?" I said ironically.
"No, it's not that. It's about your son." my ex wife said.
"Not only that. You are going to take me to the house and let me see him!" I said with cold.
"That's impossible. Tell her, Arizona." Teddy said and I can tell she is feeling, I don't know like, guilty?
"I'm going to do it when Callie and I are alone." Arizona said.
"No, do it know in front of us!" Saddie said
"What are you going to say to me, Dear Arizona?" I smiled. God, I hate to be this hypocrite, I thought.
"Please don't call me dear, it sounds empty and with hypocrisy." She said with anger.
"Whatever" I said with cold
"Callie, Max thinks that you are dead.." Arizona started and I cut her off.
"It can't be that serious." I said the emotion of thinking about seeing my son after eight years: "I'll go tomorrow and I'm going to say that it wasn't me that died that it was another women. That I just lost the memory and that I'm back." my eyes are on their way to tears but I fight them. "You take me to see him and I'll do the rest"
"It's not that easy" Arizona said
"Why not? " I asked with cold.
"Because it's impossible, Callie. " Derek said. In Lauren's journal are secrets about him the same as Preston, George, Izzie, Saddie and Amelia. To be honest I don't know if they are more secrets of the others in the other half of the journal, since when Luciano gave it to me the half was missing. But they weren't in the city. So, Teddy, Meredith, Cristina, Owen, Addison ans Mark aren't in my list. I thought that Derek was a friend like truly. When the murder happened we were working together in a trial. And even before that I thought that we had a friendship but he turned my back too. "Also, Arizona has a girlfriend and it's getting serious." Derek said.
I looked at Arizona and smile. "Don't worry about me. I'm going to be friends with her so I can visit my son." I kept the posture but it surprise me. "What's her name?"
"Colleen" Arizona said
"Well, cheers for Colleen" everyone stay still and I looked at Arizona. "Aren't you going to make a toast for the woman of your happiness?" I smiled.
"Enough!" Izzie yelled, Addison started to talk and so I ignored the blonde.
"Callie, are you staying here?" I can tell she's kind of hurt that Mark knew and she didn't. But she works with Arizona.
"Yes." I said softly. I'll talk to her later.
"Can we go now? Too much drama and not tequila" Cristina said and it was hard to not laugh.
"One more thing" I said.
"What is it?" Arizona asked.
"just like you protected my son eight years hiding the truth you are going to still do the same" I said.
"What? I don't get it." Owen asked confused.
"you all are going to be silent about me being in jail. No one will no specially my son. And you all have to promise that."
"What? " Amelia asked.
"What you heard. It isn't going to be hard. I mean, since you are all good to the lying thing... " I said "So, again, it's your choice" I looked at everyone and then to my ex wife.
"I promise" Arizona said looking at teddy and then at me.
"Me too." Mark, Addison, Owen and Cristina said at the same time. I smiled truly at them.
"I promise, too." Preston said with a cold tone.
"Me too" George stand up.
"I'm in" Amelia said. Derek nodded.
"me too" Meredith, Izzie and Saddie said. Izzie still looking at Arizona. She always were in love with Arizona and now I know that she still is.
Now that everyone agreed with the promise I smile and started to walk towards the doors and make my way in the stairs and I stopped and said to them that were in the doorway. "For today, the party is over"
