Jenna's POV
"What's Sofia like?" I ask, since she is my half sister after all and since Callie has asked me questions about my life I think it is only fair that I ask about her life too.
"She is the cutest little six month old ever. Would you like to meet her?" I feel my eyes go wide, not knowing what to answer. "She's in the daycare down stairs," She explains quickly when I don't say anything.
"Would my dad want me to?" I ask since I don't know what my dad wants or doesn't want.
"I think he would want you to meet your half sister."
"Ok, then." I say and we walk towards the nursery. We are about to turn the corner, when Callie's pager goes off.
"I have to go deal with this, but tell them that you're Jenna Sloan and Callie sent you. It's just around the corner. I'll see you later, ok?" I nod and wave bye to her before she takes off in the other direction. I round the corner and wonder if I'll be able to figure out which kid is Sofia before they tell me. I walk into the daycare and it takes me ten seconds to find her.
"Can I help you?" A woman asks with a caring smile.
"Yeah, uh how long has he been here?" I ask and she looks over where I am looking.
"Dr. Sloan? He's been here for, um," She glances at her watch, "about a half hour."
"Can you tell him Jenna stopped by?"
"I can tell him, sure." She says a little confused.
"Thanks," I say before turning to walk out of the room. I start to walk towards the front door of the hospital, not knowing what I should be feeling.
"Jenna…? Where are you going?" Callie sees me.
"Away from here," I say ass I yank my hair into a high ponytail.
"What happened?" She said noticing the change in how I was feeling.
"Ask Mark." I say with poison in my voice. Right after I say it, I run out the door, needing to feel nothing but my feet hitting the pavement, just like old times.
Mark's POV
"Dr. Sloan," I look up from Sofia and see Margaret, one of the day care personnel, standing by us. "A Jenna told me to tell you she just stopped by." Shit! I say in my head. I promised Jenna we could get to know each other when I wasn't working.
"Did she ask anything while she was here?"
"Just how long you had been here and then if I could tell you she had been here."
"I need to go find her." I say and Margaret holds her arms out to take Sofia and I pass her on as I walk out into the hallway wondering where Jenna could have gone.
"What did you do?" Callie's angry voice came from a little bit down the hallway.
"Callie, do you know where Jenna is?" I say not even noticing what she had just said.
"Yeah she just ran out the front door of the hospital."
"WHAT?"
"What did you do? When I left her no more than 10 minutes ago, she was smiling a bit, telling me things about Georgia, and wanting to meet Sofia but then I saw her and she looked like she was going to cry or something. And you know what she said when I asked her what happened?" I shake my head but have a good idea. "She said to ask Mark. Until whatever you did, she had been calling you 'my dad' but you really messed it up. So I'll ask again, what did you do?"
"I stopped by the day care to say hi to Sofia and I lost track of time. I was down there for maybe a half hour. But I promised Jenna that we would get to know each other when I wasn't working."
"Mark, she barely knows you and now you broke a promise. She just lost her mom and I don't think she had a healthy relationship with her mom's long time boyfriend, so you need to fix this now before she is screaming out in her nightmares scared of you instead of him." I didn't take the time to ask what she meant by this, since right now I need to find Jenna. I search the outside of the hospital but I know that Jenna probably is far from the hospital by now, since she had more time to get away before I even knew she was mad at me. How could I have forgotten about my promise that she and I could get to know each other? She hasn't even been here 24 hours and I've already hurt her once. After searching for an hour, I walk back inside and hope that Jenna will come back here. My beeper goes off, 911. I know that I need to take care of this, but right now all I want to do is find Jenna. I run to the ER, but all I can think about is Callie's last sentence. You need to fix this now before she is screaming out in her nightmares scared of you instead of him, what could she have meant by this?
