Cornelius walked into the master bedroom after a very long day at work. The super computer was showing signs that something was messed up in the time stream. Now, the super computer was a work in progress, but the lab was sure that the time stream monitor worked perfectly well. He was praying that it had nothing to do with Wilbur, even though he would be the only thing to be able to change the past.
Franny looked at Cornelius.
"Okay, what happened?" Cornelius didn't respond. "What did Wilbur do this time?" It was scary how she could do that.
"I can't think of what he could possibly change. I checked about five times in the database and he couldn't change anything that happened that week."
"Well maybe he affects the results of something that happens latter?"
Now, Mr. Robinson didn't think of that. He was kind of busy hiding the fact that anything was wrong to begin with from his coworkers. He knew that this wasn't a when, where, what question. Who could Wilbur have met that would change the time steam a little bit short term, but no long term issues?
"No," Cornelius started, "I can't think… wait! Maybe, no, but it is possible, I know they did or would meet eventually."
"Could you please stop that, sweetie? It's hard to follow you when you think in incomplete thoughts out loud."
"Sorry. I just remembered, there was a girl, her name was Sara. She was at the orphanage; same grade as me at the time, twelfth grade, but a year older than me. We were really good friends," Cornelius sighed and looked off into the distance.
"What happened to her?" Franny asked.
"There was a horrible accident as far as anyone knows. And in memory of her, I left it that way."
Franny pushed a little more; "So, what actually happened?"
Mr. Robinson sighed. "She was never actually happy. She was a fourteen year old girl with no friends her own age and no family. The girls in our classes would make fun of her every chance they had. She was really smart. She staged the accident. She said goodbye to one person that day; me, her only friend. Few people went to the funeral, but I wish she could see who did go."
Mr. Robinson looked out the window, and watched the dark rain as it smashed against the window.
"Well, you have a time machine; why have you never gone back to save her from herself?" Franny asked as tears filled her eyes.
"I feel as if, if I were to save her, it wouldn't be the same. If I would have saved her, she probably would have kept trying. Things happen for a reason. Sometimes we have to let tragedy take its course. Without disappointment, how are we to know the feeling of joy? And tragedy allows for people to be heroes. Besides, knowing her and knowing Wilbur, there is someone else who will want to save her and actually make a difference in his effort."
Franny walked over to Cornelius and kissed him, "How about you forget all about the time stream and get to sleep. It will still be there in the morning."
Ok. so the girl's name might change. I just have always liked the name sara. So unless someone else can give me a good name for her, her name is sara. (ps: the name sara fits the personality of her the best, so if you want to suggest a name, write a reveiw! ((and if u dont want to suggest a name, still reveiw)) so they name i have to agree upon, ill update this chapter if i change it.
