Chapter 125: Incised (3)
“Jane, I’ve waited for you for seven years. I always remembered the woman with brown hair and green eyes disappearing into the mirror when I was twenty-two.”
“…Ever since then?”
“Ever since then. I searched all over London for a woman named Jane. But strangely, I couldn’t find her, as if she vanished like a ghost. I even wondered if I had gone mad.”
It was November of his twenty-ninth year when I started as Jane.
“Then, in the spring of my twenty-seventh year, Jane appeared.”
“Another Jane, not me.”
Liam Moore’s fingers brushed my cheek as if playing the piano keys. I saw his lips curl into a gentle smile.
“I tried a few times, but ‘that’ Jane didn’t remember anything. You were the same. Even though she was closest to me, she didn’t seem to know about our encounters. So, I realised our time was tangled.”
When did it start? When did Liam Moore begin to welcome me?
