A new life?
Por elisabeth-p
It had already past a year and a half since Kiera Cameron appeared in 2013, along with Kellogs, Garza and others. For a long time she lived convinced that she would soon return to her time, to her family, her city, but as the months passed she lost increasingly all hope.
She wished to see her son, her husband, but somehow inside her was beginning to form the possibility of that ever happen.
Alec had already presented it once...
- Have you ever thought that perhaps this time is your new time?
-No. It is not, Alec. It can´t be.
-Kiera, I wish I could help you but… I have been already one year and a half working on it and I have not accomplished anything. Don´t you think that maybe in 2077 your son and husband…
-No, Alec. I try not to think about it. Because when…
Keira started crying. Alec hugged her.
-I am sorry, I just wanted… I think you have to be realistic…
-I know. It makes me sick be realistic. Don´t think I didn't think about it, but I prefer not to.
-It happens that…
-Tell me.
-I am sorry but I insist… maybe you should start thinking about settling down here. I don´t say forever but for now. Have a life outside of work, Kiera. Have fun. Go to shopping. Have friends. Go out with somebody… on a date.
-I am married, Alec.
-No here in this time. And you can´t be sure to come back and that everything would be the same.
-I know.
Kiera not stopped thinking about that conversation. She knew that probably nothing would be the same, but she always have that hope of the mere possibility of returning and that everything remains the same, that idea kept her awake. She was freeze in a life that was not life, where she barely subsisted.
One night, after a hard day of work, in which they almost caught Garza but she escaped again, Kiera was packing her things to leave when she hears a conversation…
-Happy Birthday, Carlos!
-Thanks, Betty.
- Please forgive me that this year I cannot go for a drink, I really must go take care of my mother...
-…I already told you that there is nothing to forgive, Betty. Another day we will go out… my birthday is not important to me. Really.
Betty smiles and leaves the place. Kiera goes to where Carlos is.
-So is your birthday today?
-It is.
-Happy Birthday!
-Thanks, Kiera.
- I have not bought you anything ... I'll buy you a drink?
He smiles.
-You don´t have to.
Kiera reviewing his conversation with Alec, then she smiles and insists.
-I want it, Carlos. What do you say?
-I am in.
They smile each other and leave the station.

A/N: Well, English is not my first language and is not easy to me write in it. But I did my best because I see that there are not Spanish readers here. Enjoy and leave reviews if you want!
