AETHER'S POV:-
"What did you say your name was?!!!!!" Adara shouts at me as she looks at me with a shocked expression.
I observe her with a curious expression, as I wonder if she, too, knew anything about me. Honestly…it surprises me a lot that people know about me even across worlds…but since what happened back then wasn't really something that could be put under a lid… in a way, it does make sense, too.
"Aether Rodriguez," I speak again, and she looks at me for a few moments before speaking.
"Umm…If you are the same Aether, the one I am thinking about, then… Do you know someone named Clay?"
She looks at me with an expectant gaze and I try to recall if there was anyone with that name whom I have met before.
'Clay… Clay… Clay.. Cl.. ay…??' Why does that name feel so nostalgic? I close my eyes as I look deeper and deeper into my memories but still couldn't find anything.
