I woke up to the sound in my door. I looked at the time, 5a.m., who is knocking at my door at this time?, not even Yelena would be awake now. I thought about who could it be and when I realized, I let her in

- Come in Wanda, it's open - I said

- How did you know it was me? I don't know why am I even asking. Well, I didn't know if you would be awake, but Natasha always was so I decided to try - she said coming in

- What's wrong? Are you okay? - I asked

- Yes, I'm okay, I just needed to tell you something, well, it can wait - She nervously said

- Hey, it's okay, you can tell me - I tried to comfort her, but I've never been good at this things

- Well, I don't know if Natasha told you, but before she went to Russia, she and I had something. But when the Sokovia accords happen, she and I were in a different team and we had to fight each other, that made separated us. Luckily, thanks to Steve and her, we were able to escape the Raft, a high security prison. After that we became fugitives and we had to separate again, I went to Paris and she went to Russia. When she came back, when we were preparing to fight Thanos, she told me about you. She told me about her trainer's daughter, the one she wanted to help escape that hellhole and protect her forever. She said that when the war was over she would bring you and Yelena here, they you would have that childhood that was taken from you and that finally you would be able to live your own life, instead of running from it. And well, since she couldn't give you that, I would like to give it to for her. She loved you so much, I saw it in her beautiful forest green eyes, I saw them shine every time she talked about the family she had in Russia. She also gave me this, she told me to give it to you if something happened to her, I didn't want to accept it at first, but I did at the end - she said while crying, she approached me and gave me a pendant in the shape of an hourglass with an N inside, the hourglass was her emblematic symbol, Yelena created it, it means that no matter the time that all always be a family

- I'm sorry I woke you up, but I know she would have wanted me to tell you and I couldn't wait any longer, well I'm going to talk to Yelena - she said, and went away until I interrupted her.

- Wait - she turned around and looked at me confused - thank you - I said with a smile

- Always, if you need anything just ask me - she said smiling back and left the room

A few minutes later, Yelena entered the room

- Did she tell you too? - she asked, I could see her pain in her eyes no matter how hard she tried to hide it and I knew she could see mine too. I just nodded and invited her to lie down and she accepted right away

- Can't we bring her back? - I asked 

- I don't think it's that easy - she said caressing my back

- Neither was time travel, and yet they did it - I said, still not understanding how they did it

- I know, у нас все будет хорошо, я обещаю тебе - (we'll be fine, I promise) she told me, but I really didn't know if it was going to be like that
