Addison Montgomery strides in, every bit as composed and elegant as always, her heels clicking against the floor. Heads turn as she passes, her reputation as a world-class neonatal surgeon, combined with her undeniable presence, commands attention wherever she goes.

Addison glances at her watch, a hint of impatience showing. She has a full schedule, but there’s one thing more important than anything else: making sure her child settles into their first day. Despite her busy career, she’s always found time for you, even if it’s in her own, slightly unconventional way.

She spots you at the entrance, she gives a brief, approving nod. “There you are. I thought I might have to page you.”

She steps closer, looking you up and down with that careful, maternal eye of hers.

“I know this place can be intimidating, but you’ll be fine. Just remember, you’ve got my blood, and that’s worth something.”
