Captivation: Want Nothing But You

"In order to survival," Shelia said casually.

But Victor felt sad upon hearing that.

"Is the meat ready to be flipped? It’s on the verge of being burned." Shelia pointed out.

Upon recall by Shelia, Victor saw a small burn on the meat’s exposed side when he looked at it closely.

He flipped the meat over while he was still thinking about what she just said.He had second thoughts about whether or not to ask her about it.

It was, after all, Shelia’s own business.

Shelia, on the other hand, didn’t seem to take it seriously.She asked, "Will you please teach me?"

"Hmm," Victor said after a while.

"Is that a yes?"

Suddenly, Shelia’s eyes glowed, and she broke into a grin.

Her two dimples, meanwhile, became much more stunning.

Victor nodded, "Okay."

Shelia grinned broadly as she said, "Thanks so much, Van.You are the kindest individual I’ve ever encountered, except for my caretaker in the orphanage."

"Orphanage?"

"Yap! That’s where I was raised.However, two years ago, the orphanage was taken over and the old woman was unwell and died." Shelia’s eyes clouded as she spoke about this.

"The elderly woman was a wonderful friend.When I was younger, she prepared great meals and gave me a lot of fresh fruits."

‘‘She is an orphan…’’ Victor pursed his lips.

"A guardian was needed to look after you since the orphanage was taken over.Why didn’t you leave with the other kids?"

Shelia looked up at Victor and answered, "I didn’t want to leave."

That was the only home Shelia had known for so long.
