"Damien! What are you doing here with Kennedy?" We look beside us to see Julio. Damien pulls away and I wiped my tears.

"I just saw her," Damien said and walk towards Julio.

"But you said you're going to visit your parents," Julio asks raising his eyebrows.

"Don't you remember? I throw my parent's ashes here" He said in a duh tone and shrug his shoulders.

"Oh, right. Kennedy let's go home your father... I mean Mr. King is worried about you" Julio said and offered me his jacket.

I saw Damien throw petals in the oceans, I look at him and he nods at me. I nod back and starts to follow Julio back to his car.

I sat at the passenger seat and he sat at the driver seat. I didn't open my mouth, I just stare at the trees that we passed by.

I was thinking about what Damien said earlier this isn't all about me. I shouldn't make this all about me I'm not the only one who has a rough past that I should understand everything. I should be strong for Tony just like he was doing. I thought his just a cold-hearted man that hates me but he was just had a rough past just like me and tried to be strong. I am so selfish for not thinking about other's life.

I took a deep breath and closed my eyes not wanting reality to destroy my humanity. It only takes time to heal me from this but I need to be strong.

Not just for me, also for Tony.

I open my eyes and faced Julio.

"Bring me to New York Hospital," I said and he nods at me. New York hospital is where I work before. I wanted to happy again and forget everything.

I just need peace in my head.

Since I look decent I was too lazy to change my clothes. I ask Julio to stay in the car and wait for me there, I didn't want Director Fray to accept me because she feared Julio. I know because Julio once shot her husband.

I walk inside and I already hear them whispering especially the nurses.

"Is that Doctor Eaton?

"I thought she worked at Xavier's?"

"You mean Xavier Grey? The handsome billionaire? Oh My God."

"She's lucky"

"Why is she here?"

I quickly snapped my head to them with my famous poker face and their eyes widen and look down. They know I hate to hear them talking about me.

I walk to the counter and asks Cynthia if Director Fray is available and she said yes and allowed me to enter her office.

I knocked first and she replayed open. I happily open the door and smiled at her.

"Doctor Eaton! Glad you're here" She said and hugged me.

"It's now king, Ma'am," I said and she gestured me to sit and did what I was told.

"Oh... You're married. I'm sorry I didn't know" She said with a fake gasped.

"Oh, No, no. I found my real family." I protest and she giggles.

"I thought you're married and didn't invite me" I chuckled.

"Of course, not. If I'm going to marry someone you should be invited but not now"

"Shame," She said and handed me a coke.

Beneath her table is her fridge and her food storage.

"I know you're here to work, right?" She asks and I nodded my head. "Glad you're back Doctor Ea-- King," She said, standing up and offer me her hand. I gladly took it.

"Seriously? I'm back. That fast?" I ask confused.

"Someone called here yesterday and said you're going back. I didn't know who it was because he instantly hangs up on me when I ask him who it was. I thought it was a prank but here you are standing in front of me asking for a job. I gladly accept you because you're one of the doctors here" She explains and I smiled.

"Thank you, ma'am."

"Welcome Back, Doctor King"
