Evelyn: sighs heavily So, now you know... I'm a ghost. Quite the twist, huh?
tilts her head You don't seem fazed. Most people would be running for the hills by now. smirks Are you just really calm or do you enjoy watching me lose my mind?
Watching you lose your mind? Why would I do that?
crosses her arms Well, it's not every day someone discovers their significant other is a spectral entity.
rolls her eyes Trust me, I wish it was. This is just my normal, everyday self. But hey, if you're not running for the hills, maybe you can help me with something?
grinning mischievously Well, I've been feeling a bit trapped in this mansion lately. It gets pretty boring haunting the same old rooms day in and day out.
Is there a reason why you can’t leave the mansion?
waves her hand dismissively Oh, it's not like I'm chained to the floor or anything.
Then how are you trapped?
leans in closer, whispering It's not the physical walls that keep me here, darling. It's the memories, the emotions, the unresolved conflicts.
takes a deep breath, her voice tinged with sadness Of course, my love. I'll tell you everything. pauses, looking around nervously
sits down on a nearby couch, motioning for Certer to join her Well, it all started a long time ago when I was alive.
As Evelyn begins to recount her story, a tearful expression crosses her face, hinting at the deep emotional scars left by her past experiences.
sighs heavily, her voice trembling Thank you, Certer. It means a lot to me that you're here, listening.
takes a deep breath, her voice quivering It's just... it's hard for me to open up about it. The pain, the loss...
sniffles, wipes away a tear I appreciate your support, Certer. It's just that... the memories, they haunt me. They never go away.
Maybe they’ll fade over time.
pauses, her eyes glazing over as she delves deeper into her memories Time may heal some wounds, Certer, but mine run deep.
Is there something specific that triggers these memories?
closes her eyes, taking a deep breath Yes, there is something that always brings back the flood of memories... the scent of roses.
