Before Arizona can answer me Sofia comes bouncy through the door with her grandparents following close behind.
"Hi mommy , Hi mama." Sof says as she climbs up on Arizona's bed.
"Hey baby, did you have fun with grandma and grandpa?" I ask her.
"Yep, we went to the park and I went on the slide and the swings and we got ice cream." Sofia tells us.
"Wow that sounds like a lot of fun but you must be tired now" Arizona says to her as she strokes her hair.
"No I'm good but I think gramma and grampa are?" Sof says.
"I think you are right about that Sofia" Barbara says laughing.
"Well I think we need to pack up your stuff and get you home, you have school tomorrow" I tell her.
"Can I come here after school tomorrow " Sof asks us.
"You always come to the hospital after school Sof " Arizona tells her.
"No I mean can I come to your room instead of the daycare" she asks us.
"Sure baby I will have Mrs. Barnes bring you here instead of dropping you at daycare" I tell her.
I start packing her stuff up and tell her to kiss mama and her grandparents goodbye. I know she is tired because she doesn't fight me on it but just goes around kissing everyone goodnight. I say goodnight to everyone and we head home.
Morning came quicker than I would have liked since sleep seemed to evade me last night. I kept thinking about Michelle saying that Arizona was still in love with me. I know when I talked to Barbara she kept using present tense then last night Arizona also used present tense when we were talking but I'm sure it was just a slip like when I was asking about her after the accident and said my wife instead of my ex wife. It can't mean anything right.
After I drop Sofia at school I head to the hospital. I have surgery scheduled this morning but other than that it should be a light day unless any emergencies come in. After my morning surgery I head to the cafe to grab a quick bite, I notice Barbara sitting at a table in the back of the room. I debate with myself if I should sit with her or just pretend I didn't see her. My decision is made for me when Barbara notices me and waves me over.
"Hi Callie, how's your day going?" Barbara asks as she motions for me to sit.
"Good thanks, I just got out of surgery and was just grabbing a quick bite" I tell her.
"Well don't just stand there pull up a chair and take a load off" she says.
"Ok thanks. How's Arizona feeling today" I ask.
"She's good she was sleeping so I figured I would take a walk and I ended up down here." She tells me.
"Is Daniel here?"
"No, he dropped me off and headed to Arizona's house to unload our bags and to pick up a few things Arizona wanted." She tells me.
"Oh so you guys are going to stay with her"
"Yeah she will need some help getting around so she asked us to stick around a little longer than we originally planned, which is fine with us since it gives us more time with Sofia."
"I know Sof will love to hear that. She missed you guys." I tell her.
"We missed you guys too. What time does she get out of school?"
"She usually gets here around 3:00. I told Mrs Barnes just to drop her at Arizona's room. I hope that is ok."
"That's fine dear we will be there to keep an eye on her. No worries."
"I get off at 5 today unless an emergency comes in so I will pick her up then."
"We can watch her tonight if you want to meet your friend for dinner"
"Um no that's ok." I tell her.
"Are you sure I know your plans got messed up this weekend and we would be more than happy to take her for the night. We can bring her with us to Arizona's place." Barbara says.
"No really it's fine, ... Michelle and I are taking a break for a while." I tell her.
"I'm sorry Callie, I didn't know. "
"It's ok , no big deal." I say.
"Do you want to talk about it" Barbara asks me with nothing but concern in her voice.
"You don't find it weird me talking to you about my girlfriend" I say.
"Callie , you are our daughter too. If you hurt we hurt just as if it was Arizona, but if you are uncomfortable talking to me that's fine too." She says.
After a few minutes of silence I say, "she told me basically I still had feelings for Arizona and Arizona still had feelings for me and we needed to resolve things between us because I obviously haven't moved on."
