Tulips

32. Embarrassed.

Becky.

The second level of the yatch. It was somehow open but with a roof. There was a table set for two in the center, a wine stand on the side and two covered plates on the table.

Did she set up a dinner date? Becca don't think that. The girl doesn't even want to... Her thoughts were interrupted as Freen put her hand behind her and guide her to her seat.

After dinner we went star gazing. It was the most amazing view I've ever seen. It's one of the list I had in my bucket list. It's not directly it, but it's closest to basically the universe. To top it all of, we were holding hands while watching the stars above.

All of these are giving me the romantic date feels. How am I not supposed to think that this really is a date? Of course I couldn't ask her either, I might spoil the moment. Right. We're in the moment and I shouldn't let anything ruin it.

We just had a romantic night and when we went back she just left me with Nam and Heng. What a quick turn of events. From happiness to dismay...

On our way to the bar Nam said; "So, she calls you Becky huh..." She said in a teasing tone. "So, did you had fun Becky?"

"It's Becca... and yes we had fun."

"Oh, why? Is Becky only for family and your very very special person?

I nudge her and said. "Quit it."

We arrived at the bar and I ordered the Aperol Spritz. Nam invited me to the dance floor with them but I refused.

"Are you sure? Why don't you drink some first for sure you'll dance later." She said before she was pulled by Heng.

My drink came and as soon as I tasted it, I knew the Equinox's version is better.

I looked at Nam and Heng enjoying at the dance floor. I looked around and watch as people mind their own business. They're either drinking while chatting or dancing on the dance floor.

I think I've spent an hour doing just that til I suddenly felt out of place, sad and alone. I wonder what she's doing. Maybe I shouldn't be here, I should be with her.

No, she might not want me there. But she kissed me... Ugggh this is so confusing. Maybe I should join Nam and Heng. I finished my drink, stood and went towards Nam.

She immediately smiled as she saw me. I started dancing into a few songs. I then notice a guy was getting too close behind me. I turned and faced him. He's tall and cute...

I then felt someone pushed me from behind. I accidentally went to his chest. I looked back and saw it was Nam. She was mouthing. "Go. Flirt."

I shook my head. She pushed me again and mouthed. "You're single and available so Flirt!"

"Looks like your sister likes dictating you huh." The guy said bending a little closer to my ear.

"Sorry for that. She's my best friend. Totally Insufferable."

"I know people like that. By the way I'm Max." He said offering his hand.

"Nam." I said the second name that came in my mind. Of course I won't use the first name I had in mind.

"Hi Nam. Mind if I buy you a drink? Juice or something non-alcoholic?"

"Uhm. Sorry. I actually have a girlfriend."

"A girlfriend? Your friend says..."

"My friend there is just saying things. She doesn't approve of her. So... I'll go now."
