Theodore almost dropped the watch. For a few seconds, neither of them spoke. Finally, Theodore found his voice and answered.
"Yes."
The woman covered her mouth in surprise. "Oh my God," she whispered. "It worked."
"What worked?" Theodore asked, confused.
The woman looked at him carefully. "My name is Eleanor Lancaster."
"I am Theodore Ashcroft."
She smiled. "It is nice to meet you, Theodore."
For some reason, hearing his own name from her felt very comforting. Outside, the rain continued to fall, but inside the workshop, two strangers were looking at each other through time itself.
Neither of them knew that this single conversation would change their lives forever. And neither knew that one day, they would have to choose between their love and their destiny.
