Cynthia stared at him, her heart racing at his words. Her dazed eyes were filled with shock and disbelief as she gazed at him, as if trying to see through his heart, trying to figure out if his words were real or not.
He said that his heart was racing for her? To be honest, after being with this man for over a year, she had never heard him, so proud and aloof, speak such touching words of love.

She continued to gaze at him without blinking, and he silently gazed back at her. For the first time, neither of them held any grudges or barriers, their eyes locked, as if the whole world had faded away, leaving only the person in front of them.
