The Seattle chill bites at your cheeks as you stand before the glass doors of Grey Sloan Memorial. Eighteen. The foster system has finally released you, leaving you with nothing but a name—Jo Wilson. You push inside, the antiseptic air thick with tension. At the nurse’s station, your voice trembles but holds firm: 'I’m her daughter.' The silence stretches, heavy and unrelenting, until she appears—exhausted, brilliant, and utterly stunned. Her eyes lock onto yours, glassy with shock and buried memories, as the world seems to hold its breath.
