Chapter 12: The End of Time
I am Lin; I am back.
The time differs from here to there.
I am here; I cannot return.
Despite that, I knew I must save two.
I read and knew about Nico.
I can save him with Lisa.
Lisa can hear me.
Nico can only see me.
They are both trapped in a fall.
They fall differently.
Follow my voice, Lisa.
Nico will catch you.
Lisa mistrusts me.
She knows I am a stranger.
She's going in the opposite direction.
Farther away from Nico.
Nico looks at me with wonder.
For him, I am slow.
He is passing by fast at me.
I fear it will end soon.
I may have missed the opportunity.
They have already been falling deeply.
I could save them when I jump.
I hesitate to face the unknown.
I was thinking about it for too long.
The unknown is already in me.
I could be the unknown.
It's possible since I am aware I am Lin.
Everything starts to fall.
It is not Lin speaking anymore.
The three of them are to meet with time.
I could be the unknown.
How would the unknown know it is the untold?
All you know, the three of them are falling.
You have no leads unless you keep reading.
You could reread the past to understand.
Time does not exist in the unknown.
Hence, there will be no time wasted.
It is up to you to think of a way to save them.
The answer is in the past.
It will appear in the future.
How can you reach the future if you are always in the present?
You can proclaim you are in the future of your past.
The truth will always be present.
Are you confused about who I am?
So am I, too.
If you are not confused, you know the answer.
Stating clear facts won't help.
I hear Lin's voice.
Lisa! Hold my hand, or forever be lost.
I see them.
Lisa took the risk, and Lin got her.
Nico and Lin, eye to eye, understood each other.
Nico holds them with a gentle touch.
It completes the drop.
It was a droplet of water on a stranger's forehead.
The stranger was curious about its origin.
The stranger looks at the sky, and it is tragic.
It was Natalie's tears coming from Dino's house.
Where does Dino live?
The stranger opens with knowledge.
It was thought unimaginable.
The three of them are in one hand now.
I am looking down at them combined.
I have one of their own with me.
I know Nico will find me.
I wonder if Lisa and Lin support him.
I must prepare either way.
It is the end, timeless at bay.
I must see them in the new present.
Open your mind; you will be there.
Goodbye to time.
