It's been a few hours since that Evelyn from the computer told me the truth. I've spent the last few hours chewing my nails and stewing over my entire past. It's so painful.
The mental anguish is overwhelming. Eighteen years of suffering I never even realized I had. I always thought I'd just been reborn in Evelyn's adult body and received some of her memories.
But in reality, my soul replaced the soul that was supposed to be Evelyn's, and fused with the body, turning me into the new Evelyn. I can now remember clearly the feeling of powerlessness, the pain of being treated like trash, and all the bullying the servants put me through.
"My gift... she said I'd get a chance to see my real parents..." I get up from the bed and step out of the room. A few drops of blood drip onto the floor from how much I'd been gnawing at my nails.
