She had her face destroyed by the fire.
She lost her memory when she was hit by the colonnade on the bow.
She is pregnant.
Her life is in danger.

Can such a person still get your love?
Give you five minutes to think about it.
…………
OK, five minutes to arrive.
To be rushed to your conclusion, look at her again.

Her face was repaired by the best cosmetic surgeon, and although not beautiful, she was dignified and lovely.
Especially her eyes, the fire did not destroy the clarity of her eyes.
She has lost her memory, which means that she is brand new, like a blank sheet of paper, and you are the paint of this painting.
You call her "Ava," and she laughs, accepting the title readily. You are coloring her heart.
Her child, under your care, was born safely.
You are surprised to find that its eyes are as clear as its mother's.

You were the one who saved her dying life.

Do you love her like this?
Give you five minutes to think about it.
…………
OK, five minutes to arrive.
Look at her again.

She replied to the memory, but refused to reveal it.
until you find out by accident.
At your strong request, she reluctantly revealed her background.
You suddenly realize that she has a husband.
Her husband came, with a face of remorse, saw her, hugged tightly, and kept apologizing.
And she, lying on her husband's shoulder, stared at you.
Her husband is a good man.
She is leaving because she has no "physical" reason to stay in the hospital any longer.
Before leaving, she tries to be alone with you.
She talks to you, looks at you, and looks very happy.
She talks to you desperately, looks straight at you, and pretends to be happy.
until you avoid her gaze.
She asks you for a reason, a reason to stay.
But your answer is: he is a good man.
Then you walked away without looking back, leaving her standing there blankly.

Should she love her or not?
You look up and look at me with a begging expression, begging me to give you five more minutes to think.
I sigh and tell you that you have to follow your heart for the answer.
……
Five minutes.
You thought hard, suddenly realized, and flew straight to the hospital.

But she is gone.

Grey's Anatomy quotes

  • Dr. Meredith Grey: My mommy's a filthy whore.

  • Dr. Meredith Grey: I've heard that it's possible to grow up - I've just never met anyone who's actually done it. Without parents to defy, we break the rules we make for ourselves. We throw tantrums when things don't go our way, we whisper secrets with our best friends in the dark, we look for comfort where we can find it, and we hope - against all logic, against all experience. Like children, we never give up hope...
