Chapter 21: "I'm sorry"

Julia took me to my room and left me in my bed while I kept silently crying, she let me cuddle into her

– it's gonna be okay, don't worry – she shushed in my ear

– I left her, the last I said to her was "see you in a minute" I turned to dust for five years, and she died! – I said crying into her

– I didn't got to say goodbye, she just died, I came back and she was just gone, we were gonna live here with Lena, and she just died! – I said I couldn't stop crying, I just couldn't stop

– It's gonna be okay, shhh, you're gonna be okay – she kept shushing at me, eventually I started to calm down

– are you better now? – Julia asked me

– do you really think I'm better now? – I asked her

– not really, but I didn't knew what to ask – she said smiling a bit

- I'm sorry – she said

– what for? – I asked her

– I never considered how you felt, I was angry at you, I was over my mothers abandonment fast, I had to, because my dad wasn't, and I was angry at you, and blamed you, I never thought you would felt responsible after your sisters death – she explained, I'm happy she's here, I would never be able to do this alone

– thank you – I said to her

– what for? – she asked

– for apologizing, and for being here, everyone leaves eventually, but you had the chance to leave, and you were the only one who stayed – I said snugging more into her

– I have to admit you saying that you could make her come back Frankenstein style was kind of funny – she said, now I realize how stupid that sounds, I had to laugh

– I guess it was, but can I just at least build a Time Machine to say goodbye? – I asked her, I knew it was stupid but I just had to see her one last time

- I'm gonna let you, but you have to also let me see what happened with my mom – she said

– deal! I accept – I said getting excited for a goodbye

– wait I thought we were joking, time travel isn't real – Julia said

- it's very real, that's how the Avengers brought everyone back – I explained to her

– with a Time Machine? – Julia asked

– yes, now – I said getting out of bed

– there are two options, we can go and steal the Time Machine that it's in the compound Tony had fixed, or we can build our own – I told her while she got out of bed

– I can't believe we are going to time travel – she said

– I can't either – I admitted

– I really don't want to build a time machine, can we just steal the one in the compound? – Julia asked

– of course, it's gonna be easier too either way – I said

– when are we going? – she asked

– now, right now – I said dragging her down the stairs.
