DISCLAIMER: I do not own anything related to "Meet the Robinsons," I only own Karena and Diana.

KARENA'S POV

"How did lunch go?" I asked as I put Diana in her crib to go to sleep. "You have a good night's sleep, alright, baby girl?"

"Lunch was great!" Wilbur answered enthusiastically… a little too enthusiastically as Diana started to cry.

"Oh, Wilbur!" I exclaimed as I picked Diana back up and sat down on the rocking chair.

"Sorry!" my husband whispered. "Wait, why is Diana going to sleep now? It's almost—oh, I get it."

"That's right, Daddy. No crying at the dinner table. Besides, we have to break it to the family that we're moving to New York."

"Oh yeah, speaking of which, Amy is offering to help us move and find a place."

"When do you start?" I asked as Diana started to calm down.

"I start in the middle of May to train under the current historian. Amy's offering me to stay at her place while we move."

"I gotta say, I love your new boss already," I said with a smirk.

"I also hear her husband is someone to meet, as well as their two kids. I don't know who's more hospitable: my parents, the Prides, or Amy and Russell."

"Wait a minute," I whispered with my eyes wide open. "Did you say Amy and Russell?"

"Yes, Russell is her husband. I told her you've heard of him."

"You'll have to tell me about him when you meet him," I replied, putting Diana back in her crib.

"I'm more worried about how we're going to tell the family about the move," Wilbur replied. "I haven't even told Carl yet."

"I think telling Carl would be a good start," I suggested. "While you talk to him, I'll talk to Tallulah. She's like the sister I never had."

"Alright, we'll tell them right now."

WILBUR'S POV

I walked up to my dad's lab where Carl was, looking at the machine of possibilities as always. Carl saw me and turned towards me with a smile.

"Hey, little buddy. How are you feeling today?"

"We need to talk, Carl."

"Right down to business, huh? Alright, I've got time. I always have time for my little buddy!"

"I'm afraid not as much time as you think," I replied solemnly. "Carl, I've accepted a job at TIME and I'm moving to New York."

"Congratulations, buddy! That's wonder—WHAT?! You're moving?!"

"Yes, I'm afraid so."

"Holy cow," Carl said, rubbing his head. "Do your parents know?"

"I spoke with both of them before making my decision, and they were on board."

"I uh, I uh, I don't know what to say, Wilbur," Carl stammered. "When are you moving?"

"The middle of May. My new boss wants me to train for a couple weeks before starting in June."

"Don't you have to go through the academy before becoming a part of TIME?" Carl asked, and I nodded in response. "You're going to be busy within the next couple months. I still can't believe you're leaving. I wish I was going with you."

"I know, Carl," I replied, tears starting to form again. "I wish you were coming with me, too. But there's always the phone."

"Oh Wilbur." Carl hugged me and I let out a few tears as I hugged him back.

KARENA'S POV

"No, no, no, you can't move!" Tallulah exclaimed when I told her the news.

"What do you want Wilbur to do, stay in the rut he's in?"

"It's not that at all," Tallulah replied. "It's just that… you're part of the family. We've always stuck together."

"Tallie, just because we're going to be 2,000 miles away doesn't mean we're not family or that we'll never see each other again. We will. And I'll still be here for the next two months. You can help me and Wilbur prepare to move. That or you can watch Diana while we pack."

"Still, it's not fair," Tallulah said, crossing her arms. I walked towards her and put my right hand on her left shoulder.

"The move is going to be hard on everybody. It's probably going to be the hardest on Wilbur because he's been here all his life. He has thought long and hard about this job offer, and I mean, he stayed up all night just thinking about it. Wilbur is going to need your help now more than ever to get through this transition."

"I know. It's just… we've bonded for eight years, Karena. You've become a sister to me." Tallulah started to cry, and I gave her a hug as she continued to cry on my shoulders. I let out a few tears myself, knowing that this will be the hardest phase the Robinson family will ever go through.

"And you've become mine," I replied back, still hugging my cousin-in-law tightly.

"Karena, you're wet." I let go and looked down to see my dress soaked through.

"Ah man! This is one of the disadvantages about motherhood: the milk. And it always happens when someone cries. Excuse me."

I left Tallulah's room and ran to my room to pump milk and to change my dress.

WILBUR'S POV

"Dinner is served, ladies and gentlemen," Carl announced, but he was not enthusiastic as usual. I guessed that the news of me moving hit him hard. I saw that Tallulah's face was red, meaning that she took the news hard as well. The mini-Carl's walked the food to everyone, which consisted of meatloaf and mashed potatoes. Aunt Billie's train was on the table, and it contained all of the condiments.

"Why is there a sad feeling in the room?" Uncle Art asked. "We're never sad about anything. Except for when Buster died."

"Uncle Art, everyone, I have some news to share," I announced, standing up. "Mom and Dad know, Karena knows, and so do Carl and Tallulah, but I'm going to make it family official. Two days ago I got interviewed for a job at the Temporal Investigation, Management, and Exploration Agency. The decision on whether to accept this job was the hardest I've ever had to make."

"What job is it, Wilbur?" Grandma Lucille asked.

"I got interviewed to be a historian," I answered. "I would be using my knowledge of history to help uncover a criminal's psyche in the past, present, and future. The chief of TIME believes I have the qualities needed to become that historian."

"So, did you take the job?" Grandpa Bud asked with a smile on his face.

"Yes, I took the job," I answered, and the family who did not know the news cheered for me. "But there's a catch. It is with a heavy heart that I have to announce that Karena, Diana, and I are moving to New York City in May."

My family's smiles quickly turned to frowns as tears started to form in my eyes again.

"Excuse me." I ran out of the dining room to my room. I grabbed my daughter from her crib, and I took the travel tube to the garage. I started to bawl my eyes out while tightly holding my baby daughter in my arms.

KARENA'S POV

"Is Wilbur okay?" Laszlo asked after my husband ran out of the dining room.

"I was talking to Tallulah about this earlier, so I'm going to let you guys know now." I stood up and started explaining. "Even though he made the choice he thought was best for himself and our family, Wilbur is taking this the hardest out of all of us. He's never moved before in his life, and all of you have been there for him since day one. He doesn't want to leave you guys because he loves you. He needs all the support he can get from each one of you to help him get through this. Now let me go find him."

"When he's depressed like that, he's usually in the garage," Carl suggested, and I took it. I went straight to the garage from the dining room, and I heard crying when I walked in.

"Wilbur? Are you in here?"

My teary-eyed husband emerged from behind the prototype time machine with our daughter in his arms.

"Wilbur, what were you doing with our daughter?"

"I know it sounds crazy, Karr, but when I hold our daughter in my arms, God is telling me everything is going to be okay."

"It's not crazy at all," I replied, walking up to him and hugging him and Diana. "Not only did you use Diana as a coping skill, but you also bonded with her. I think she understands that you're upset and anxious about this whole thing."

"I can't do this alone, Karr," Wilbur said, another tear falling on his face.

"You won't be going through it alone." We turned to see the entire Robinson family in the garage. Franny stepped forward. "Wilbur, we all love you very much, and we always will. We will always be a phone call away if you need to talk."

"The process won't be easy," Laszlo said, stepping forward. "But tell us what you need and we've got you covered."

I saw a smile creep up on Wilbur's face as all of us gathered to hug him.

"I love you guys, so much."
