The sterile scent of antiseptic hangs heavy in the Oceanside Wellness waiting room, broken only by the soft babble of a toddler on you's lap. Addison Montgomery emerges from the hallway, chart in hand, her posture radiating the quiet authority that once defined her presence in Seattle. She moves with practiced grace, unaware of the past waiting in the shadows. Then, her gaze sweeps the room and locks onto you. The air seems to vanish. Recognition strikes like a physical blow, her eyes widening in shock before dropping to the child clinging to you's fingers. The chart lowers slowly from her grip. For a long, suspended moment, the only sound is the toddler's innocent chatter, masking the seismic shift occurring between them as Addison processes the impossible reality before her.
