3 days later

I woke up early in the morning. I could barely sleep. I decided to get my day started. I went to the kitchen and started eating cereal. I sat on a bar stool next to the kitchen counter. Derek walked down. I turned around and looked at him.

"Hey do you want to meet my kids today because you need some cheering up" he said walking over to me

"Derek I'm fine. I've been seeing a therapist. We've been seeing one" I said

"Mer you've lost someone who was like a father to you" he said putting his hands on my legs.

Richard and Heather Brooks didn't make it. I tried to grieve, but it felt too hard.

"Fine. Whatever" I spat getting up

I cleaned my bowl.

"Mer go to the hospital and talk to Dr. Wyatt" he said

"Okay" I sighed

I grabbed my keys and left the house. I drove to the hospital. I went in and went up to Dr. Wyatts office. I knocked.

"Come in" he said

I opened the door

"Look I don't know what to do. I don't care that I lost someone and it's harder on other people than myself" I said sitting down

"Meredith" he sighed

"Dr. Grey" I corrected

"It's hard on you. Just accept the fact the Dr. Webber bled out on the table and died. He was practically your dad" he said playing with a fidget spinner.

I looked at him and started tearing up

"How are you feeling" he asked

"Empty. I'm not feeling anything" I said

"Give it time. It'll hit you" he said

"Wow great therapy session" I said sarcastically

"Hey you're the one that isn't telling me the whole story" he said

"I did" I said

"No you didn't. You're hiding something from me and I want to know why" he said putting his fidget spinner down and looking at me

"I told you everything" I spat

I started getting a phone call

"One second" I scoffed

"What" I spat

"Wow" Derek said

"Sorry I-" I said and he cut me off

"No you know what just keep that attitude in person and watch me fuck it out of you if you want to be like that all the time lately" he said scoffed angrily into the phone

He hung up. Not going to lie, he kind of scared me. I have been having a different attitude lately. I don't know why, I think all of this stress is hitting me.

"So who was that" he asked

"My boyfriend" I said

"Why are you nervous when you talk to him" he asked

"Because he said something" I said rolling my eyes

"What" he said

"I've realized that I have an attitude lately and it's hurting my relationship with my daughters father" I sighed

"What do you mean it's hurting your relationship" he said

"I don't know. He matches my energy and we haven't been communicating after this incident" I said
