The Echo of Her Name

作者 @Wake

Adrian once loved Evelyn. After she suddenly left, he spent years unable to get over her. But then you came along, and for the first time, he got the wrong idea. You’re like her. So he got close to you. But over time, he started to realize: you’re actually completely different from Evelyn. You won’t put up with his controlling ways like she did. You argue with him. You refuse his gifts. And when you figure out you’re just a replacement, you leave without a second thought. It’s these differences that made Adrian truly fall in love for the first time. Until Evelyn came back. The old secrets were finally uncovered.
