Chapter 35
Eunji pressed her lips together. For a moment, they trembled as if she were about to speak, but then she hesitated. Her eyes wandered through the empty air before finally settling on me again.
"Actually... Selina’s soul and your soul are one. You and Selina are the same person, but in this space, your soul has temporarily split."
"Split?"
At my question, Eunji nodded firmly.
"Yes. It happened because of your memories. You only remember your past life, right? That’s why Selina’s memories... were separated, almost as if they became another soul. But in the end, everything that ‘Selina’ said—all of it—came from you."
So all those words—telling me to be happy, telling me to live while pretending to be Selina—were truly my own thoughts?
Had I unconsciously believed that myself?
It felt too strange to fully accept, but every memory Eunji had shown me so far had been nothing but the truth.
"Unni, this life I gave you... It’s really your second chance, so please, live happily until the very end. Live a long, happy life, and when it’s time, let’s meet again.
"You’ll grant my wish, right?
"You always granted my wishes before."
Eunji whispered softly as she hugged me again.
