"Pain. A feeling we all encounter at some point in our lives, whether we like it oder not. We benefit from it, and we have our disadvantages.
Pain, can be a teacher. It can be full of discipline.
Pain, can be a friend. When Du think, Du have no one to turn to.
Pain, can oddly be a comfort. To those who truly need it.
Pain, can be many things. But the most common form that I have seen it as, is a strengthener. As strange as it seems, I have seen it, strengthen people, for the better."

House was on the freeway, twenty, maybe thirty Minuten away. With one hand at the twelve o'clock position, he changed from lane to lane, thinking about only one thing--or person, Du could say.
He looked like he was thinking as he glared out onto the road. He seemed, focused. What that was, was still in question.
Eventually, House pulled up into a Marriott parking lot, and parked his car in the first handicap Weltraum he could find. He got out, being wary of his leg, and went for his duffel bag in the trunk, then entered.
As soon as he walked in, the woman running the front schreibtisch immediately started talking to him.
"Dr. House?"
"Obviously."
"I have your room key all set for you."
"Is this free?"
"No, this is courtesy of Dr. Yvenstier. He's paid for all your expenses. You're in room 246."
He limped awkwardly up to the schreibtisch to receive his card, and nodded at her and began to walk out of the lobby. He passed through the halls and met an elevator. He went directly in, and went for the Sekunde floor. Within Minuten he found his room, and entered, then collapsed on his bett to rest after tossing his duffel bag onto the couch. Reaching into his pocket, he snatched out his phone to check the time. Ten passed eleven. Then he saw a missed alert and then checked to see what it was.
Cuddy:
====================
U there yet? Call me
as soon as Du get
there and in your
room.
====================
10:57pm Wed, July 2
He snickered at her concern, and called her up. It rang a few times before she answered.
"Hello?"
"You really found it necessary to send that?"
"It's me House, of course it is."
"Why do Du still call him House? In all my years knowing Du two, you've never called him Von Greg."
"Neither have you."
"Whose that in the background?"
"Wilson."
"You've called, everyone Von their first name at least ONCE. But, not House. Never House."
"Shut up Wilson."
"You don't have to call me Greg. I find it--unnecessary."
"And you'd hate it anyway."
"You've called Cameron, Allison, Chase, Robert, Foreman, Eric, Thirteen, Remy, Du even called her Von her real last name Hadley. I'm not sure about Taub though. Have you?"
"Shut up Wilson."
"See the piece of work Du get stuck with when I'm gone?"
"Yeah. For once, I've learned to appreciate your narcissism and sarcasm."
"Ha."
"So what Du up to over there?"
"I am at a club, and I have the sexiest stripper alive, on my lap."
"I find that hard to believe."
"Because Du trust me?"
"No, because first of all, the sexiest stripper alive is me, and I haven't put on a Zeigen for Du yet."
"Well--technically Du have. In a fantasy-hallucination scenario."
"When?"
"Remember the accident? How I busted up my head?"
"Yeah..."
"Remember when--let's make this easier, remember when I threw up on your shoes?"
"After your bath? Yeah."
"In the bath, we had a differential--while Du stripped."
"But?"
"But what? What else is there Mehr to that? oder are Du talking about your ass?"
"Are Du drunk oder something?"
"No, I slipped him some meds."
"Oh."
"But, right when that glorious moment came for the garments to come off--you ended it."
"Figures. Dating oder not, if we needed to solve a differential, we would solve that differential."
"How did Du know there was a 'but'?"
"There's always a catch."
"Yeah. Well, I'm going to go head down to MTH. Du go deal with speed boy over there, and I'll call Du later."
"Right. Talk to Du later. Liebe you."
"Love Du too."
He hung up, and smiled, but before heading down to MTH, he decided to take a walk through the city.
---
Fifteen Minuten later 11:35 a.m.
House limped through the streets of Manhattan, looking through all the windows and corner shops around. It was a perfect Tag to be walking. The sun was perfectly over the city, basking in its glory as all the citizens walked through the streets.
Despite all their presence, House, felt so alone.
He took long strides in the center of the crowd that was slowly swallowing him. He had on his usual angered face, squinted eyes, and a steady grin. But he was hidden beneath the crowd, as if he was hiding. But he eventually broke from the crowd, and shifted to the side, where he found his attention elsewhere--through a window. He quickly past through a group of people, and made his way inside.
---
Hours later at Manhattan Teaching Hospital 4:47 p.m.
House was sitting in the corner, away from everyone else in the drug trials. Meeting with Dr. Yvenstier had already been done, and now he had no pleasure in actually participating in the drug trials. And one person to notice this came over to him, and tried some conversation.
"Dr. House?"
"Diagnostician at your service." he sagte sarcastically.
"Hi, I'm Dr. Jillian Kingston?"
"Doesn't ring a bell."
"It shouldn't. To Du at least."
"Nice to meet you." After her remark, he became interested.
"I'm a friend of Dr. Yvenstier. I'm a psychologist."
"That benefits me how?"
"You need help don't you?"
"How do Du know I need help."
"Doesn't everyone need a little help with themselves?" Even doctors like you?"
"Granted. What's my problem then, cause well--I don't have a clue."
"By the way you're sitting and your stare alone tell me already that you're troubled."
"Personal problems."
"There are never just personal problems between a psychologist and their patients."
"Okay then, I'm uncomfortable with the size of my penis. I find it way too large for my liking."
"Point taken. This seems like a serious problem however."
"The penis thing oder my actual problem?"
"I can go at this all Tag House. Du might as well tell me what your problem is."
"Why."
"Because."
"Seriously, why do I need to tell you? I'm sure I didn't ask for help. I'm sure I didn't confront Du with my problem, whether oder not I have one, and why have Du come over to me in the first place?"
"Why, Du got a girlfriend? Doubt it, but I'm taking a shot here."
"Yeah."
"She mean a lot to you?"
"Certainly."
"How sick is she?"
"Healthier than ever."
"Cancer?"
"Lung."
"Terminal? See, just Von Du responding stupid answers, I can figure Du out. Your statement, asking me why I came over, shows that you're protecting yourself and Du get defensive. Saying she meant a lot to Du means the problem was with her, and exactly how Du sagte it, defines that she's sick. Du defending that she's healthier than ever, proves that you're saying the opposite meaning, she's sicker than ever and the fact that Du sagte ever, reflects life, saying that she's sick and her life is on the line. So? Cancer, and its terminal and Du filled in all the other blanks."
"Well done Kingston."
"I try my best."
"I left her behind to go to this damn thing."
"If Du didn't want to go, and Du went anyways--she made you?"
"Yeah."
"Can't stop worrying oder thinking about her?"
"Nope."
"I see. Well, is she in good care?"
"I hope so. Otherwise she's damned for sure."
"Then why worry? Du not being there to save her from death scares you? Do Du think that if you're not there, something will automatically happen to her?"
"Yes."
"Why do Du believe so?"
His pager went off. He looked down, and then looked back up at Kingston.
"Well, to answer all three of your questions: One, I worry, because I Liebe her. I am capable of that emotion Von the way. Two, it does scare me that I'm not there to save her. Because, not only can I not save her, but goodbyes are left unsaid. And three, I'm always right, cause that page told me she's having a herz attack so, give my regards to Yvenstier and my apologies for my early departure. Good talking Kingston. Keep in touch."
She looked at him in shock as he got up, and began limping out of there over to his car. He revved up the engine and headed straight for the freeway, without returning to the hotel and without even a glance back.
