My Heart only Beats for You

Yesseca turned around and then froze.

There really was a thin girl lifting up a pot.

Yesseca recognized her.

It was Ruth.

Ruth also noticed Yesseca.

She suddenly looked awkward.

After Ruth served their food at Yesseca's table, she greeted her, "Ye... Yesseca."

Preslie was surprised, "You two know each other?"

Ruth nodded at her as if to greet her as well.

Yesseca then stood up.

She then said to Preslie with a smile on her face, "Preslie, have a seat. I'm just going to talk to Ruth for a little bit."

Yesseca then pulled Ruth aside.

She carefully looked at Ruth.

It hadn't been very long since she last saw Ruth, but she seemed a lot weaker than before and she looked very bruised as well. She had dark circles around her eyes too. Yesseca looked at her suspiciously.

How did Ruth end up like this in such a short time?

She then asked, "Ruth, how did you end up becoming a waitress here, and how did you end up looking like this?"

Ruth faltered. "My cousin runs this restaurant. I work here now."

"Are they cruel to you?"

"No, the restaurant is just very busy all the time. I'm fine."

Yesseca relaxed.

She figured that since Ruth's relatives ran this restaurant, they wouldn't treat her badly.

Ruth looked so skinny now, she must have been badly overworked with how busy the restaurant was. Yesseca then said, "Ruth, I'm getting married tomorrow. Will you be able to attend my wedding?" Ruth replied immediately, "I'm sorry, I won't be attending. But I wish you well. I'm really happy for you." Ruth had rejected her invitation, so Yesseca didn't insist.

It was probably for the best that Ruth and Zorion didn't see each other again.

But she had also considered Ruth her friend, that was why she had extended her a verbal invitation.

After chatting for a little bit, Ruth then excused herself as she had to get back to work.

Yesseca then said, "Alright, I won't keep you from you work then. I'll come and visit you again soon, Ruth."
