Doctor Who - ''One Day'' - Chapter 3

Chapter 3

The three made their way to a park.  The Doctor and Clara sat down on a bench underneath a tree.  Susan remained standing with her expression unchanged from when she was released from the police.
"I will ask you again," Susan pressed authoritatively.  "Who are you?"
The Doctor got up and stood in front of Susan.  He softly grabbed her shoulders and looked into her eyes.
“Oh, Susan,” the Doctor said.  “You really don’t know, do you?”
“Who are you?”
“Susan, it’s me.  I’m the Doctor.”
“Doctor who?”
“No, just the Doctor.”
“Grandfather?” Susan’s eyes widened with disbelief.
“Hello, Susan,” the Doctor said back, his eyes beginning to flood with tears of joy with the assurance that his granddaughter remembered.
“Grandfather, you came back!” Susan cried.
“Of course I came back Susan,” the Doctor replied.  “I promised I would.”
The Doctor stood back up and turned to Clara, who was still sitting.
“Susan,” he said.  “This is Clara, she’s a friend of mine.”
Clara got up from the bench and extended a polite “hello” to the Doctor’s granddaughter.
“It’s very nice to finally meet you,” she said.
“Well, now that we are all acquainted,” the Doctor said.  “Susan there are some very serious matters that I need to talk with you about.”
“What do you mean?” Susan replied.
“Susan, I need to know exactly why the police were after you,” the Doctor replied.
As the conversation carried on, Clara noticed that the sky was beginning to darken.  The Doctor and Susan both looked upwards and took note of this.
“Oh, the weather isn’t looking too well,” observed Susan.  “My apartment isn’t far from here.  Perhaps you could both stay there for the night.”
“That sounds splendid,” the Doctor replied.
