“Think about it, Clark,” Lois pressed. “We go back and our younger selves are left here with the last twenty-four hours a blank. Because I am alone with you, you will take the blame. I don’t have years of friendship to draw upon to know that you would never do anything remotely close to what I will think you did, so our friendship will end before it’s even begun.”
“I’m sure I’d protest my innocence, claim that I don’t remember anything either, and prove to you from then on just how trustworthy I am,” Clark argued.
“And eventually, I may start to believe you, but at first I guarantee you will be lumped in with the Claude fiasco. We may even start a tentative friendship...that will end the moment I find out that I’m pregnant. I’ll demand a DNA test, the results will prove you to be the father and the friendship will be over. I’d never trust you again. And depending on my state of mind, I may even abort the pregnancy.”
This is very bad.
Better to leave them where - or when - they are just now and see how things are going to play from now on. Surely everything is gonna be more interesting.
Looking forward for the next part.
