Chapter 5: Forgiveness
Cuddy gave Thirteen a couple of hours to cool off before she went back into her room. She entered and began to speak to her daughter.
“Remy I really want to be here for आप and talk to आप please let me do that.”
“What is there to talk about आप gave me up! Why do आप care so much now? Where were आप the first twenty-five years of my life? Please leave.”
“No!”
Thirteen shifted in her बिस्तर and then glared back at Cuddy.
“Fine if आप won’t leave then get me a cup of water and the TV remote I’m going to watch TV. आप can… sit there!”
Cuddy got up and got Thirteen a cup of water and the remote and handed them to her.
“Please just let me talk to आप I want to be your mother and make up for लॉस्ट time please give me a chance.”
“Why should I? आप didn’t give me one!”
“Remy that’s not fair.”
“Call me Thirteen please.”
“Okay Thirteen आप can never understand how much I regret not keeping आप but look how good आप turned out. You’re a doctor! आप save lives आप should be proud of yourself I know I’m proud of you!”
“Whatever I’m too tired to fight you. आप know Cuddy I never admired anyone the way I admired you. आप can walk into a room wearing the sexiest of outfits and still have everyone’s full attention on what आप are saying. I looked up to आप and strived to be और like आप but now… I don’t know what to think of you. As mad as it makes me that आप gave me up आप did give me a good life and I did turn out well. I…I can’t hate you.”
“You don’t know how happy it makes me to hear आप say that. I just want to hold आप and प्यार आप like a mother should. I was so scared आप weren’t going to make it and I blamed myself. आप may not understand it but I प्यार आप Thirteen आप are my little girl and not a दिन went द्वारा when I didn’t wonder how आप were.”
“Then why did आप never try to contact me?”
“I couldn’t do that to आप it would have just confused आप and आप were too young I had to now because आप work for me.”
Cuddy realized Thirteen was crying and walked over and hugged her. Surprisingly Thirteen didn’t back away. She gave in and hugged her mother back.
“I forgive आप Cuddy but it still hurts really badly.”
“I’m sorry I hurt आप and House Thirteen I had no right to keep आप from him but it was the best for आप and for him.”
“How am I going to work here now I can’t work under my father it’s a conflict of interest are आप going to आग me?”
“No, I’m going to transfer आप to another department आप will still be my employee but आप will see your own patients it will kind of be like having your own practice. You’re ready आप are an incredible doctor.”
“Cuddy this might seem odd because I’ve been so bitchy but can आप just hold me? I feel horrible and just want to cry.”
Cuddy sat back down beside Thirteen, wrapped her arms around her, and laid her daughters head on her chest.
“I’m here honey आप can cry all आप need to. I plan on being here for आप whenever आप need me.”
House walked in and saw Cuddy sitting on Thirteen’s बिस्तर he smiled for a सेकंड and then entered the room.
“How are आप ladies doing?”
“Hi House, Cuddy and I were just talking and… I don’t resent आप guys. I’m just really hurt द्वारा what happened.”
“You have every right to be I was hurt also in और ways than one but Cuddy did the right thing. We were in no condition to raise a baby back then. Tom and Carol did a great job raising you; आप turned out to be a great person and a really good doctor. That’s why I picked आप for my team. I will say this though Cuddy loves आप और than anything so please let her be your mom that’s all she wants.”
“I’m not comfortable with calling आप guys mom and dad yet so I will just call आप Cuddy and House. I’m willing to forgive Cuddy and let her in but it’s going to take some time.”
“All I ask is that आप accept me Thirteen. House is right I do प्यार आप very much and only want to be your mom. I just want to make up for all the years I wasn’t there. I’m so proud of आप and am so glad आप are okay. You’re such a strong person and I know आप can handle this.”
“I don’t feel very strong right now all I want to do is cry but you’re right I can handle anything. Cuddy, can I have a moment alone with House? I need to talk to him.”
“Sure I’ll be outside if आप need anything just call for me.”
Cuddy left the room and waited outside while Thirteen and House talked.
“House can I ask आप something?”
“It depends... of course ask away.”
“Are आप glad I’m your daughter?”
House stood in silence and thought of how to answer the question.
“Well I… Thirteen I’m just as shocked द्वारा this as आप are. One दिन you’re merely my employee and now you’re my daughter. It’s very weird. I guess yeah I’m glad it’s just going to take some time for me to accept this as well. I’m not exactly the father type I… don’t know how to treat आप या what to do आप will have to help me kiddo.”
“Well आप can start द्वारा giving me a hug.”
“Oh… uh okay.”
House walked over and gave Thirteen a hug.
“Thanks. I’m just really confused right now and feel real dependant I just want someone to hold me.”
House continued to hug her and then began to speak.
“Well for the first time in my life I have no idea what the hell I am doing. There should be a parenting manual but unfortunately there isn’t या I didn’t get a copy.”
“You’re doing well I don’t blame आप at all आप didn’t even know I existed until I started working for you. What would आप have done if आप had known about me? Would आप have wanted me?”
House sighed.
“I’m sorry Thirteen but the only answer I can give आप is… I don’t know.”
“I understand आप were young and had your life to live I probably would have screwed things up for you.”
“No. I would have screwed आप up and आप would probably be working the streets had I had anything to do with आप upbringing.”
“I highly doubt that आप would have been a good dad. आप will be a good dad. Can I ask आप another सवाल though?”
“Sure but only one.”
“Are आप still in प्यार with Cuddy?”
House stood up and started to pace around the room.
“Well I… apart of me has always loved her. That beautiful hair, those gorgeous eyes, and that smile, not to mention her smoking hot body. Yes I do still प्यार her and she knows it. She captured my दिल twenty-six years पूर्व and has had it ever since I was just too proud to do anything about it. Our bantering back and forth daily is the closest thing I have had to having her so… it works. Is that good enough?”
“Yes. Despite the fact that it hurts knowing my whole life has been a lie I forgive both of you.
Cuddy gave Thirteen a couple of hours to cool off before she went back into her room. She entered and began to speak to her daughter.
“Remy I really want to be here for आप and talk to आप please let me do that.”
“What is there to talk about आप gave me up! Why do आप care so much now? Where were आप the first twenty-five years of my life? Please leave.”
