The Scent of 120

Chapter 120

More than ten years had passed, yet Celeste still remembered everything clearly.

She recalled that day–how she had gone to the restroom, heartbroken, and when she returned, she saw Erin holding two ice creams, one for her and one for Wynn.

When she returned, Erin handed her the damaged ice cream without saying a word about why a chunk was missing.
