:28:05
Why didn't you come to meet me
that last day in Paris?
:28:11
- I was afraid.
- I didn't want this.
:28:14
- What?
- The truth.
:28:17
- You want me to lie?
- Of course.
:28:21
A nice, soft, painless lie.
:28:24
I got the days confused. I thought
it was Tuesday, not Wednesday.
:28:28
I went to the Café Moulin instead.
:28:31
That's better. It was raining.
You couldn't find a cab.
:28:41
I waited all day.
:28:44
And it was raining.
It rained the rest of the week.
:28:49
I went to Starfleet headquarters,
but you'd already shipped out.
:28:55
So,... come on.
:29:01
Let's hear the truth.
:29:04
It was fear.
:29:08
Fear of seeing you,
losing my resolve.
:29:11
Fear of staying,... Iosing myself.
:29:17
Fear that neither of these choices
was right and that...
:29:21
And that either would have...
:29:26
For a long time,
:29:28
not a day went by that I didn't
look up into the sky,... and wonder.
:29:40
Each time that I returned to Earth,
my thoughts were filled with you.
:29:45
I've thought a lot about this
over the years.
:29:49
Perhaps you're leaving out
your greatest fear.
:29:54
- The real reason you left.
- Which was?
:29:57
That... Iife with me would have
somehow made you ordinary.
