*buzz buzz*

"Catherine!!!"
"I miss you guys"
"Can you ask Tim if he still needs help going back to Earth 38?"
"I can't contact him because I don't have his NUMBER!!!"
"Okay so just text me back"
Cisco sent a text message to Catherine

Barry left the apartment and Caitlin went back to sleep while Catherine waited for Tim whom she called to come over.

*ding dong*

"Hey"
She said

"What's up?"
He kissed her

"I have to ask you something"

"What is that?"
He came in and walked straight to the couch

"I got a message from Cisco"

"And?"

"He's asking me about you going back to Earth 38"
He didn't look or even respond to her

"What was he talking about?"

"What?"
"I-I don't know"

"What do you mean you don't know?"
"He just said if you still need help"
"How come you don't have any idea about it?"

"Maybe he misheard me talking about something"

"Misheard?!"
"Misheard about what?"

"Something"

"Something?"
"You mean Earth 38?"

"Yeah..."

Caitlin was awakened by the noise of Catherine and Tim arguing outside her room. She heard that they were arguing so she didn't go out of the room and just listened by the door.

"Earth 38 is like far from here or more like another universe"
"Why are you lying to me?"

"What? Are you kidding me???
"N-No..."

"Oh cut the crap"
"I know you're hiding something from me"
"Just tell me"

"You won't understand"

"Understand what?"
"There's nothing wrong if you try telling me"
"I just want you to be honest"
"Please"
"That's the only thing I want from you now"

"I-I'm from the future"

"Future?"
"You?"
"What?"

"See... You don't understand"

"Tell me"
"Explain."

"I'm not from this time"
"I'm from the future"
"I came back to the past"
"If this is your present, for me this is my past"
"I came here with the Legionnaires"
"I'm a legionnaire"

"What?"
"So you mean, this didn't happen?"
"By the time we parted ways before... you really left?"

"I left"
"And yes this didn't happen because I didn't come back here"
"Not until I was accidentally brought back here"

"You changed the timeline...?"

"I sort of"
"Well us, legionnaires, did travel to change something from the past because of the blight. It's really really destructive and that will happen in the future"

"Blight?"

"And it will occur in Earth 38"

"Earth 38...Supergirl's!"

"Yes"

"Wait so you're from Earth 38... you're not..."
"You're a doppelganger???"

"Wait no"
"I'm your Tim"
"I came from this Earth"
"I met my co-legionnaires here but they are all from Earth 38"
"Well actually not because they're aliens..."
"Long story."
"When I met them here, I decided to come with them because I thought I was the only one who's different..."

"I still don't get it"

"I knew you wouldn't understand..."
"But at least you know the truth, right?"

"Yeah, cool"

"Are you still mad?"

"Are you going to leave me again?"
"Are you going back to Earth 38?"

"I-I don't know..."
"I didn't know how I got here and I need to help my team"
"We have a mission to do"

Catherine frowned
"I think y-you should leave..."
"Like leave this apartment"

"What?"
"Why?"

She went to the door and he followed

"W-Wait let me finish, babe"
"Yes, we do have a mission back in Earth 38 but I don't want to leave you"
"I missed a lot here"
"After I went with them to their Earth, I missed this, I missed having you"
"I missed the chance to take you back before and I won't let this second chance slip away this time"
"To be clear, I don't have a doppelganger there and so are you guys including Flash"
"It's only Supergirl, Superman and them"

"I don't want to decide for you because it's your choice. It's your life. I don't have any right to choose for you"
"And I don't want to be the reason for you to avoid your duties as a legionnaire."
"It saddens me to see you go but at the same time, I don't want to stop you from being a hero. I understand. So please, do what you have to do, Tim"
She opened the door

"Cath..."
"Don't do this"

"The door is open for you to leave... Let's not make this hard for us anymore, Tim"
She sighed

He has no choice but to leave her in tears

Caitlin decided to go out of her room and comfort her sister after hearing the argument

"Cath..."
She said

"Y-Yeah"
Catherine wiped her tears before looking at her sister

"What's up?"
She added

"Come here"
Caitlin smiled thinking that she was right about what happened then suddenly, Catherine shed all her tears on Caitlin.

"I'm sorry we woke you up"
She sobbed

"What?"
"No"
"It's fine"

"You heard it all?"

"Enough to know what happened"
Caitlin said

"You got me, sister"
"Don't forget that"
"He may be gone but I'm here"
"I'll never leave you"

"I know..."
"Thank you, Cait"
"I love you so much"
She continue to cry
