My Heart only Beats for You

Selina knew that Cecilia adored Matthew.

If she were to tell her that they've broken up, she would be furiously disappointed.

"What's the matter, dear?" Cecilia asked.

Selina took a deep breath.

Never mind! What did she have to feel guilty for? It was over between them, she would just have to accept it!

"Mom, I've already broken up with Matthew!"

Cecilia's body tensed up, frozen in place.

Natalie was equally shocked by this news.

She stood up. "Why would you go and do that, Selina?"

Lowering her head, Selina stared at her feet. "We just did. No reason."

"Selina!" Cecilia's voice was sharp and piercing. "How could you be so reckless?! Matthew is such a rare catch. I never would have dreamed that such a fine specimen of a man would fall in love with you. And yet he did! Now you've gone and thrown it all away. What were you thinking?!"

She had never used this tone with Selina before.

She was certain now that Selina was out of sorts. She had tolerated many of her mistakes in the past, but breaking up with Matthew was taking it to a whole new level of disappointment.

Matthew was an outstanding man, so much so that Cecilia was convinced that he surpassed Tobias.

She could not believe that Selina would be so foolish as to leave him.

Selina was already in a terrible mood this morning. Cecilia's outburst only made it worse and now she felt insulted.

"Mom, how could you say that? What do you mean you've never dreamed a man like him would ever love me? Am I such a horrible person?"

Cecilia composed herself. "Selina, that's not what I meant. What I'm trying to say is you shouldn't have behaved so recklessly!"

Natalie spoke up to her. "Selina, no mother would ever think bad of their daughter. It's just that Matthew is a really good man. You shouldn't have rejected him."

Selina bit her lip, she felt a deep sense of helplessness.
