My Heart only Beats for You

Selina figured it was best if they could find somewhere quiet to talk.

They went into a restaurant and requested a VIP room.

A VIP room was a private room and it was separated from the rest of the guests in the restaurant. Hence, they could talk freely without any disturbance. Selina ordered some snacks.

She began to eat it as soon as it was served.

Although they were in the private room, Yesseca hadn't spoken a word. Besides, she had had a solemn expression all the while.

Selina then handed a snack to her and said, "Try some of this. It's pretty good."

Selina did not want the atmosphere to be tense nor heavy.

She hoped that the conversation with Yesseca would be in a relaxed and pleasant atmosphere.

But Yesseca was not in the mood to eat.

She shook her head and said, "I don't feel like eating."

Selina then shoved the shrimp into her mouth instead. "So, what do you want to talk to me about?"

Yesseca struggled a little.

After a while, she looked into Selina's eyes seriously as she said, "I want to talk to you about someone called Essie Clark." Selina's eyes widened.

At first, Yesseca thought it was because Selina was surprised.

But soon she realized that it wasn't a surprise in her expression.

It seemed that Selina wasn't surprised, but more of...

Yesseca couldn't describe the look on Selina's face.

She asked anxiously, "What's wrong, Selina?"

Selina replied in a hushed voice, "I don't exactly know why, but I feel a little uncomfortable."

Selina tried to lift her hand but to her surprise, she couldn't raise her arm whatsoever.

Selina felt as if all of her energy was being sapped away from her.

Her eyes widened even more, "Yesseca, I-what's wrong with me? I feel lethargic and tired as if my energy is draining out of me."

Yesseca panicked.
