My Heart only Beats for You

Selina nodded her head.

She lightly bit down on her lip, causing a small tinge of pearl-white to appear in a pinkish-red sea. She looked especially pitiful.

"Nothing can be absolutely perfect in this world. Anything you do could lead to regret," Matthew said, "Just like how the moon waxes and wanes, this is an ancient and unchanging principle. Selina, everything has flaws in it. Here's an example. There was a pair of lovers who'd separated and married different people because of a misunderstanding. It was only until a few years later that they realized the truth. At that point, although they would regret their separation for the rest of their lives, such things are already irreversible. Do you understand?"

Selina only half-understood what Matthew meant.

Matthew continued, "In other words, the reason why some couples feel life-long remorse over breakups is due to their feelings not being steady enough. Right now both you and your friend are experiencing the same things. Besides your mistakes, could your current separation be due to an unstable friendship in the first place?"

Selina's breath hitched at the question.

Matthew stared right into her eyes. "If your feelings for each other were stable, then why didn't she properly listen to your explanation?"

Selina felt as if there had been a swift blow to her head by a blunt object.

Her mind was in a daze for a long time and she stood frozen in her place for what felt like half a day.

Matthew didn't bother her during her frozen state, he merely gazed at her in silence.

Time ticked by second after second.

Selina's lips started to quiver.

Then, she finally spoke, "Matthew, I think I finally got it."

Once her words fell, she heaved in a deep breath as her eyes took on an odd glimmer. "I won't entangle myself in such matters any longer. This matter between us is over and done with. It's completely finished!"

A flash of tenderness flashed across Matthew's eyes.

He knew that although her emotions tended to fluctuate, she was still a smart girl. All smart girls only needed a small clue to see the bigger picture. "Come to my office with me. I'll make you a cup of coffee." Matthew looked at Selina with a smile.

Selina asked tentatively, "Won't that interfere with your work?"

Matthew assumed that, at this moment, Selina needed some space to regain her composure, "It's fine, you can be by my side while I work. There is a big sofa for you to relax on, and I have plenty of delicious snacks and drinks prepared, so you won't feel bored."

In addition to this, Matthew knew that it would be best to stay by Selina's side while she processed her emotions.

Selina hesitated before she gave a reply.
