"If we're all going to die within 30 years, then what good would it do to Robin, or to any of us, to start a family?"
"I don't know. There must be a reason, but that's not what matters now, it's Rowan. Robin has to know about his existence. Why don't you follow the plan and tell him once and for all?
"He married someone else, they're expecting a baby. Let that child be his heir now, Row and I will continue on or own".
"Now you're being stubborn".
"I'm just being cautious".
"If a threat is waiting for us in the future, I don't want my son to travel there. I'll raise him without Robin's help, here, in 2015"
"You can't be serious".
"I am. And we won't speak about this subject again. Needless to say you can't tell Robin anything."
"Aurora Skies is a small town. He'll discover it for himself sooner or later. And I'm not sure he'll forgive you for not telling him".
"That's my business, I'll handle it. You go ahead with your wedding plans, marry Judith, live your life and let me take care of mine".
Dustin heaved a sigh.
"Okay, I guess I'll never convince you, so I'm leaving".
"Just please, consider moving back home with me. This apartment is cold and bare, and you shouldn't be alone at a moment like this. Call me anytime you're ready and I'll come to pick you up", Dustin said and left the house.
Once alone, Juliette recognized her mistake for the first time.
"Dustin was right, If I had told Robin the truth from the beginning none of this would be happening".
Dustin's voice sounded in her head again: "You can still tell him that Rowan is his son. He may be able to do something, even if it's only to give Rowan his last name".
"Sorry but no, Dust. Robin has a family already, he got what he wanted, I'm not that selfish to go and wreck his home. I chose my destiny when I rejected him, I'll take the consequences of my own decision".
On his way home, Dustin made a decision too.
"That's enough, sister. Robin has to know. If you won't tell him, I will".
