Tears welled up in Ariana’s eyes and her whole body was trembling slightly. She buried her face deep in the clothes, trying to inhale

Theodore’s familiar scent. However, after five years, the clothes only carried the smell of the fabric itself mixed with the scent of sawdust from the wardrobe.

The harsh reality was ruthlessly breaking her illusions.

“Theodore, why? Why did you leave me here all by myself?” Ariana murmured in a trembling voice.

She made an effort to calm down. With her eyes still red, she put the clothes back in the wardrobe. When she turned around, her gaze fell on the dusty decorations on the shelf. The thick layer of dust almost hid the original appearance of the figurines.

She made up her mind this time to come back here regularly.

With this in mind, Ariana tidied up the room a bit before leaving.

As she was about to leave, she suddenly noticed that, unlike the other dusty figures, the top of one of the figurines on the shelf was clean. It felt like someone had just touched it.
