A Heart That Won’t Warm

Summary

Evelyn and I were reborn.

We came back to the day of our wedding, right after college graduation. She was still in the makeup chair when she suddenly tore off the pristine white gown.

"Tim," she said, her voice sharp and final. "I've thought it over. We're not right for each other."

"I'm not marrying you."

I didn't try to stop her. I knew. In our last life, she regretted every moment she spent with me. A heart that won't warm up stays frozen, no matter how hard you try to melt it.

And just like that, three years of love evaporated. We went our separate ways.
