My Heart only Beats for You

"The day he arrived, he spurred an uproar throughout the school because he was just too handsome. Natalie, he was so handsome that it's impossible to describe."

"My brother is good-looking too, but he was different. He had his own aloof aura that got every girl swooning over him."

"Did you know, Natalie? He was really, really poor. The entire school knew that, and nobody actually figured out how he ended up at such a prestigious school. However, because of his charm, nobody looked down on him. Instead, all the girls were totally captivated by him, including me."

"Ever since he transferred to our school, I was like a fool in love. I would send him food for breakfast, cheer him on while he played basketball, and even write love letters to him. However, he never even spared me a glance."

"A lot of the girls in our school chased after him, but he never bothered to look anyone's way."

"One day, I finally decided to let go of him. I even thought that he might just be gay. How could he not be interested in any of the girls at all? I stopped sending him breakfast, watching him play basketball, and sending him love letters."

Selina paused and smiled, fondness uncontrollably dripping in her tone. "To everyone's surprise, he came barging into my classroom one day, suddenly took me into his arms and asked me, 'You don't like me anymore?""

"He didn't have much money, but he tried his best to buy me the best gifts. I remember our first Christmas together. I was really disappointed at first. While everyone was out celebrating, he didn't come to look for me. Surprisingly, he called and asked me to come out when the clock struck twelve."

"So, I did. When I saw him, his face was flushed red from the cold, with this trending, lavendercolored doll in his hands. To a rich person, that lavender doll didn't cost much, but it would be so expensive to someone poor."

"I later found out that he had been working. That day, he had been working until twelve to get the last bit of money to buy me this doll."

"Natalie, at that moment, all I could think was that he was the one for me."

Natalie's gaze shifted slightly.

She was a little surprised. Listening to Selina's description of him, he didn't seem like such a bad guy after all. If that was the case, what made the Whitlocks oppose their relationship so much? How had he made Selina so sad?

"Natalie, isn't he wonderful?" Selina looked at Natalie.

Natalie remained silent, not knowing what to say.

Selina laughed at herself. "Yes, he was wonderful, but then he changed. I don't even know why he changed so suddenly. He no longer cared about me. He started drinking like an addict. Tell me, Natalie, why people change?"
