What would happen if the Earth passed through an interstellar dust cloud?

How can a twin on Earth grow old slower than his/her twin sibling?
I'm not opposed to your answer or to adding to Ash's answer. I'm curious about how it would work.

The ideas are great, but I was thinking more of the Earth twin as passive. He/she would have to be surprised that the other twin is older. Perhaps I should've mentioned it in the main post.

@Hypnosifl Thank you. I would prefer it doesn't break causality, but I'm also open to a certain degree of handwavium.

@Hypnosifl Suspended animation wouldn't work for me. What I'm thinking is person A met person B while person B was a child. The child Person B spent some time "somewhere". Some years passed (say 8 years), and Person A reencounters Person B, finding out Person B isn't a child anymore, but an elderly. Perhaps this is just too far from the plausibility realm?

@Hypnosifl Yes, I'm thinking of the twin who stayed on Earth as the younger one. Is there any way it would be possible?

Thank you. And would there be a plausible way (or at least a bit handwavium) to explain someone who grew old faster in relation to an observer on Earth?
