Alex: Fifty it's a boy

Meredith: Nope it's a girl i know it

Cristina: You guys are NOT betting on that baby

Lexie put 30 dollars on the table

Lexie: I'm with Alex on this

Izzie: Nope I think it's a girl

Cristina let out a sigh

April: 30 on girl

Jackson: 20 on girl

Alex: We have 80 for boy and 110 on girl, Cristina you better not disappoint us

Cristina: I'm not choosing

Meredith: At what time is the appointment?

Cristina: It's...right now, I'll see you guys later

Cristina took her lunch tray and met Owen in front of the Gyne's office

Owen: You're late

Cristina: I'm so sorry, did she take someone else?

Owen: No don't worry she's late too

Cristina: Oh okay good, cause I didn't want to run

Owen: Good, that's good

He put a hand on her back and kissed her forehead

Owen: How are you, I'm so sorry I haven't been home and...

Cristina: Don't worry about it, you're here now that's all that counts. And me, I guess I'm doing good

Owen: Good

The door opened and the doctor came out

Gyne: Dr. Yang?

Cristina: Yeah

Gyne: Let's go

They went inside the room and Cristina laid down on the table and the doctor put the gel on her stomach

Gyne: There it is, looks like a healthy baby to me. All 10 toe and fingers good job. Would you guys like to know the gender?

Cristina: Yes

Owen: No

Cristina: What do you mean no? I'd rather be prepared Owen

Owen: You really wanna know?

Cristina: Yes I do, I'd be way more confident

Owen: Okay then, yes we would like to know the gender, please

Gyne: Okay, it is going to be a...baby boy!

Owen: A boy?!

Gyne: Yes

Owen looked at Cristina and kissed her forehead

Owen: We're gonna have a son

She nodded and smiled

Gyne: Do you want pictures?

Owen: Yes please

She printed the pictures and left the room, Cristina was whipping off the gel from her stomach

Owen: There's a baby boy in there

He said touching her stomach

Cristina: Yep

Owen; Thank you, for giving me all of this, I love you so much

She smiled at him and took his hand

Cristina: I love you too, and I need to talk to you about something serious

Owen sat down next to her

Owen: What's wrong?

Cristina: I can't operate anymore, I mean I just don't want to. Right now I have nothing to do here, no real purpose in this hospital so I quit

Owen: You did what?

Cristina: I quit, I'm not part of the staff of this hospital anymore

Owen: Why?

Cristina: I cannot go into an OR, I just see images of Derek and you and of him and I'm not able to move anymore

Owen: I will help you, you're the one who got me through my PTSD, I'm here for you

He hugged her

Owen: But Cristina you can't quit, surgery is your whole life and, what are you gonna do?

Cristina: What if for now I think about him, I focus on us and on the baby

Owen: You're not gonna be a stay at home mom, i know that's not what you want

Cristina: If I was, what would you do?

Owen: Cristina you know I'd love you even if you were a plumber, it wouldn't change anything between us, it's just...I know that you wouldn't be happy and that's the only thing I'll forbid you to do.

Cristina: I tell you, I'm happy Owen please believe me

Owen: Okay, I trust you

She looked into his eyes and kissed him

Cristina sat down at the lunch table

Meredith: She's back!

Izzie: Okay we're really not patient and we wanna know, so what is it?

Cristina: It's a...

Alex: Can you not

Cristina: Okay okay it's boy

Alex: Bam! I knew it I don't care I'm gonna be your son's fave person in the world, actually you know what I wanna be the god father

Cristina: I don't think that's your decision to make

Alex: Oh

Meredith: Did you tell Owen?

Cristina: Yep

Meredith: What did he say?

Cristina: It took it pretty well actually

Callie came towards the table and sat down

Callie: Hello

Cristina: Hey

Callie: We need to talk about something very serious

Cristina: Don't tell me you can't pay rent

Callie: Oh no that's not it. You guys gotta go

Cristina: Excuse me?

Callie: I'm not gonna live with a new born in my apartment

Alex: Your apartment?

Cristina: Yeah it's not yours only

Izzie; Oh y'all better shut up cause I found that apartment

Cristina: Whatever I'm not leaving Callie, you need to go you find yourself a place, thank you honey

Cristina smiled sarcastically and waved so that she'd leave. Callie got up and left.

Meredith: Why are you being all bitchy?

Cristina: I am not, she wants to kick me out of my apartment what do you expect me to do?
