My Heart only Beats for You

Cecilia thought for a moment and said, "Selina, now that Matthew is awake, I shouldn't bother you anymore. You should stay with Matthew, I'll come to visit you both later on." Cecilia knew that Matthew had just woken up, and the two of them probably would have a lot to catch up on. She thought that she might be a nuisance if she continued staying there. Granted, Selina wanted nothing more than that.

Although Saorise had just left, God knows when she would come back. Cecilia being there was simply like a ticking time bomb.

Selina then nodded.

"Call me if you need anything."

"Alright."

After Cecilia left, Selina stood there for a little while more. A moment later, the doctor came out.

"Doctor, how is he now?" Selina immediately asked.

"He's in a good condition. He'll be alright after some rest."

Selina then entered the ward.

When she walked in, Matthew looked over towards her as well.

Their line of sight clashed.

Selina felt something surging inside.

It had been just a few days, yet she felt as if it there had been a century's rift between them.

She walked over with quick footsteps.

She buried her head in Matthew's chest and said, "You're finally up, Matthew. I almost thought that you wouldn't ever wake up again."

Her voice slowly became choked with sobs.

Gently, Matthew patted Selina's head. "There there, my little girl. I'm awake now, no?"

Selina raised her chin, tears welling up in her delicate eyes. "Matthew, how on earth did you get into a car accident? You almost scared me to death, you know. I don't even know how I got through the past few days."

Matthew's breath stopped for a bit.

A bitter smile appeared on the corners of his lips. "Selina, I got a little too emotional while driving, and I lost control of the steering wheel."

"Got emotional for what?" Selina immediately asked.

Matthew went silent for a moment.
