So… Now I know. And, it’s not what I expected, but it feels right. When I look at my reflection, I can see them so clearly. While I don’t know the specifics, it also explains my powers or why I can have them. And… I guess I did get to meet both of my biological parents too. Well, I got to watch one of them die, at least. Which…
I don’t know. I don’t know how to process this. Not yet.
And my dad. He was here. I could’ve reached out and touched him. He was right here just a few months ago. If I had known sooner, I would have burned each moment I spent with him into my memory, heart, and soul… And now… Now he’s gone.
Why?
Why didn’t she tell him about me? Why didn’t she tell me about herself? She was right there. She knew who I was. Why didn’t she say anything? Why did she let herself die with this secret? WHY?
Do you think… if he knew, he would’ve stayed? Or has too much time passed now, and whatever connection we might have had was lost years ago in an alternate cycle.
Just... Why?
I miss you, both of you. Even if I didn’t get to spend much time with either of you. I would have if I could have. But… I’m sure I’ll see you both again someday or some cycle far away, Jean and Lucy.
