Life without the Doctor

Time for Truth

I slowly walk up to his door and knock," Anthony, please let me in..I can explain everything.."

"Why should I listen to you?! You've been lying to me for 10 years! Your not my aunt, and my parents were never traveling; they were lost!" He yelled from the other side of the door.

"You were just a child, we weren't just going to tell you that your parents disappeared into thin air!"I lean up against the door,"The same thing that happened to your parents, happened to Rory and I...we were in New York when it happened, so we must've switched places. We always meant to tell you, we just didn't know when.." Anthony stayed silent, in the sanctuary of his room."I'm sorry we didn't tell you sooner... can I please come in?" I heard a sigh from the other side and the bed springs squeak, as he got up and opened the door.

"Do you promise to tell me everything you know about those statues, and who you really are..?" He looked me straight in the eye.

"I promise, but it can wait until you get back from school. You better hurry up or you'll be late!"I said, pointing to the clock.

"Oh my god, you're right! Thanks for reminding me.." He rushed out of the room and threw his coat on, before grabbing his backpack and running out the door.

I sat at the table with another cup of tea, and sighed. I know its been 10 years since the incident, but I still dreaded that day. "I hope Rory gets home from the hospital in time to help me...this is going to be so hard..."I thought to myself. I let my mind drift off as I watched the clock.
