Cristina took one last deep breath and finally reached up to knock on the door. "Come in," she heard a very familiar voice say and turned the door knob, opened it, and walked in.

"Dr. Yang! So you're finally here. Please sit down."

Cristina nodded, smiling a bit, and went to sit down.

"How was your flight from Paris to here?"

"It was nice. Safe and comfortable," she said, nodding and smiling. "So…"

Chief nodded and grabbed a bag from under the desk and put it on the desk. "Your scrubs, and this is you're card." And put a card on the desk. "You're a doctor in this hospital from today for 2 weeks, unless something happens and keeps you here for longer which will be thought about at that time."

Cristina nodded and grabbed the card. "Thanks. And where's the patient?" she asked.

"Room 201, Cardio wing. Have a nice day, Dr. Yang."

Cristina got up to leave, grabbing the scrubs. "Thank you, Dr. Bailey," she said and walked out of the room.

After about an hour, Cristina walked out of her patient's room. She was going to perform her surgery the next day. Walking towards the nurses' station, to sign the chart and give it back, she saw a familiar head of blond hair. Her heart skipped a beat as she saw the person. Gulping hard, she knew there was no way she could avoid Meredith. Meredith didn't seem to have noticed Cristina, but she was going to, soon.

She signed her chart and looked up at the nurse to give the chart to her when her eyes got fixed on Cristina, her blood froze in her vessels and her eyes started to go wider and wider. "Uh… um… uh," she mumbled, her eyes fixed on her once-to-be-friend.

Cristina bit her lower lip and gave the chart to the nurse. Her eyes fixed on Meredith's again and they seemed to be in that state for God knew how long.

Finally, Meredith was out of shock, somehow, and decided to break the silence. "Um… Cristina? W-what are you… what're you doing here?"

Cristina, relieved that silence was finally broken, looked down, sighing. "I'm here for a patient… for 2 weeks," she said quietly.

"Oh…" Meredith said, nodding, "Right."

Cristina sighed again, knowing the same treatment she got from Callie was gonna be given to her from Meredith, ten times worse. Cristina could remember, so vividly, the last time she confronted her once-to-be-person. It didn't end very well, so she really didn't expect any other kind of treatment from her.

"I…" Cristina started, "I've gotta go. I still haven't got a hotel room." And with that she started to walk away from the awkwardness.

Five Years Ago

Alex Karev walked in the attendings' lounge with a cup of coffee and collapsed on the sofa, groaning.

"Oh, Wilson had you awake the whole night?" Meredith asked with a grin.

Alex shook her head. "Yang." He said with closed eyes.

Alarmed, Meredith sat up. "Cristina?!" she asked, shocked. "You… and Cr-… Cristina?"

Alex, opened her eyes and looked at Meredith. "No!" he said frowning. "I was helping her pack up the whole night." Then, he closed his eyes again and leaned his head on the arm of the sofa.

Meredith, relieved that it wasn't what she thought it was, nodded, but then frowned. "Pack up?" she asked. She wanted to pretend that she didn't care, but curiosity was killing her.

Alex opened his eyes again and looked at her. "She didn't tell you?"

Meredith shook her head. "She hasn't been talking to me for weeks, Alex." She said with a bitter, but pained tone and looked away.

"Right," Alex nodded, "Sorry."

"It's fine," she shook her head. "So why's she packing up?"

"She's leaving for Paris, tonight," he said and with that Meredith jumped from her seat, nearly dropping the magazine she was reading.

"What?" she said loudly. "Fo-… forever?"

Alex just nodded.

"Cristina Yang!" Meredith said aloud, making Cristina turn around fast. "What?" she replied. Not saying anything, Meredith grabbed her arm and dragged her to one of their very own closets. Cristina was confused, and frowning, she just got dragged.

"Paris?" Meredith asked in a desperate tone.

Cristina sighed, realizing what the matter was. She nodded.

"Why?"

"I got offered the head of cardio position there and I… took it," she replied quietly.

"And you were not gonna tell me?"

Cristina looked at her, with a questioning look.

"You didn't even want to say goodbye?"

"I would've, tonight, to everyone."

"I'm not everyone. I'm… I'm… your person."

"Oh are you?" it was Cristina's turn to be loud. Then more softly, "No you're not. Neither am I yours. We've changed Meredith, we've grown apart and I don't even know why, neither do you. But we have, anyways. We have different lives; we don't understand each other anymore. We, both of us, don't have time for each other because we don't want what the other wants. Mer, we've grown apart. I hate it, but you are everyone. And I'm gonna say goodbye to you, just like I'm gonna say goodbye to everyone, tonight."

Meredith just stared at her, pain written all over her face. Not able to stand there anymore, she opened the door and walked out, leaving Cristina there, sighing.

Present Time

"Callie," called Meredith as she spotted the brunette.

"Oh, hey," Callie said, "What's up?"

"Cristina's here!"

"Oh, that. Yes."

"You knew?" Meredith frowned.

"I saw her this morning."

Meredith nodded and then shook her head after a moment. "She's here because of a patient," she said, annoyed, "She doesn't even look for her old friends to see if they're even alive or not."

"I know, right?" Callie whispered, shaking her head.

Meredith shrugged. "I've gotta go, see you." She said after a minute of sighing and walked away.
