My Heart only Beats for You

Selina was anxious.

She didn't want to answer, but Matthew's gaze was too pressuring, and Selina felt so stressed she was unable to even breathe.

She took a deep breath and said, "Matthew, you were a great person to me, but after some misunderstandings, you became someone I hated the most in the world. After clearing those misunderstandings up, I don't think you're that annoying. That's all."

She had said a lot, but none of it was what Matthew wanted to hear.

"What about now?" Matthew stared into her eyes.

Selina gulped.

She felt like her chest was about to explode.

"I..." Even after what felt like days, Selina couldn't say another word.

In the end, it was Matthew who broke the silence.

He gazed at her with his clear eyes. "Selina, I thought that you hated me and even despised me, but..." At that point, Matthew paused, and his gaze seemed to cloud over. "But having seen how violent your reactions were today, Selina, I'm confused. When I think about all the things that have happened lately, I get even more confused. Selina, tell me, how should I get my answers?"

Selina felt that her throat was dry.

She knew what Matthew meant. She knew what he was confused about.

However, what should she say?

How should she answer Matthew?

Selina then asked, "What do you think, then?"

"I want you to tell me." His skin, pointed nose and thin lips were even more dazzling under the moonlight.

"No, you tell me," Selina insisted.

"You need to let me know," Matthew repeated.

"You tell me," Selina said.

Their conversation got repetitive, and Matthew fell silent for a while.

His gaze was fixed on Selina, and he didn't say or do anything. He was just staring at her.
