Immoral Passions

Friends?

After Wendy ran out of the club back to her home, she was met by two angry figures standing at the door. She confusedly looked at them wondering what was wrong.

"What are you two doing here?," Wendy asked, closing and locking the main door behind herself.

"Did you forget you had to spend time with us?," Joy asked while raising an eyebrow.

Wendy who saw her two furious and suspicious friends staring at her, just nodded. Not like she could get herself out of the situation.

"I-I.. got late at the bank," Wendy answered after she saw her friends waiting for an answer.

"Then at least pick up your calls.. we have been worried," Seulgi said, her gaze softening after hearing the satisfactory answer.

"Sorry... I didn't notice..," Wendy said in a whisper while checking her phone to reveal multiple missed calls from both of her best friends.

"Anyways come on let's watch a movie.. We have everything prepared," Joy said as she changed the mood and clung onto Wendy by her arm.

"Um.. actually do you mind if I wash up first?," Wendy asked in an apologetic tone.

"No no go ahead.. we'll be waiting downstairs," Joy said as she patted Wendy on her head and gave a soft smile.

Wendy smiled back and quickly went upstairs to take a quick shower. She has been out all day and she was desperately in the need of one.

After getting freshened up, Wendy went back downstairs and joined the exited duo who was already cuddling on the sofa. She sat beside Joy and held up a bowl of popcorn from the table in the front.

"What are we watching?," Wendy asked curiously, looking at the movie starting.

"House at the end of the street," Seulgi replied.

"Hey do you guys mind if I... call Irene over on Wednesday?," Wendy asked suddenly, remembering that she had invited the older woman home for their next session.

"We told you we don't. You can call anyone you want," Joy replied, her eyes fixated at the huge tv in the front.

While Joy and Seulgi were watching the movie, occasionally cuddling with each other and snuggling together, Wendy was lost in her own thoughts. She wondered what she would say to Irene when they meet next. It had been really awkward between them just a while back and she didn't want to be embarrassed later too.

"C-Can you two... hang out with us?," Wendy asked hopefully. The best way to not make it awkward is if they're large in number. Joy and Seulgi will definitely keep them entertained without any small uncomfortable talks.

"Really? Okay cool we like her," Seulgi nodded.

"But how did you get close to.. her?," Joy suddenly asked.

"What do you mean?," Wendy asked curiously, looking sideways at the taller girl staring at her.

"How did you get close to.. her? Out of all the people? Like no offense but you wouldn't even talk to anyone except us two in college and school.. how are you talking to her? It just doesn't make sense to us," Joy said honestly. She and Seulgi both have been quite confused about Irene and Wendy's friendship. It just didn't make sense to them.

Wendy who knew how relevant the question was thought for a moment. Her and Irene had just clicked at the moment. They both had secrets which they prevented to talk about. They both were opposites.. still they attracted. But one thing bothered Wendy through this question. She wondered if it's just her who cares about Irene so much.. or if it's the other way around too. They hadn't met anyplace and any time except those of their sessions and it's Wendy buying her time.
