Freen&Becky (I need you more than I want to) S1

Her rational choice (part one)

FREEN'S POV

I drove back home after spending the night at Kao's and while driving in, I saw Becky coming out of my house.
I mean Becky was in Chidlom and in my house.

Kao told me not to talk to Becky and just ignore her and so we did, walking right passed her like she wasn't even there. I think that was the hardest I've tried not to look at a person.

When we got into the house, I asked my mom about why Becky was here.

"She just rang the doorbell and when I checked, I saw Becky.

I was also surprised about how she knew where you lived but then I realized that she was the first person to live with you in Chidlom before your breakup." My mom explained

"What does she want this time? Why is she here?" I asked in anger

"She said that she wanted to talk to you."

"About what mom? Why is she appearing in my life to talk to me now and about what? I said getting even more angry

"I don't know but Freen you have to calm down." My mom said trying to console me but in anger, I went inside my room, followed by Kao.

"Don't talk to her. It's better you ignore her and when she's tired, she'll go home." Kao explained

Yes! I shouldn't be talking to Becky. She is bad and all she'd do is hurt me. Why then does part of me want to hear what Becky had to say?

I could get my best friend back, if I just listened to what Becky has to say. I was confused been caught between the thought of seeing Becky and not seeing Becky.

Late at night that same day, Becky called me. I no longer have her number saved on my cell but that number is engraved in my heart.

I tiptoed to the bathroom to pick it up because Kao was in the room with me. And she won't be happy or support me talking to Becky.

"Hello" I whispered

"Hi. How are you" Becky said

"Is that a rhetorical question? Because obviously I'm not fine and you know why. Since you just called me to say rubbish, I'm hanging up" I said

"No! no!! No!!! Please Freeny, don't hang up. I'm really sorry and I want to talk to you. I know that I hurt you and there's no excuse for all the things that I've done.

But please just hear me out. Just give me the chance to talk to you at least for old times sake." Becky said pleading

Maybe she could really have an explanation for everything. All the questions I had about our breakup  and her sudden change of attitude towards me, could be answered if I just talked to Becky and so I told her to come over the next day so that we could talk.

*****************

The following morning, Kao and my mom were in the kitchen while I was in the bathroom when my mom informed me of Becky's arrival.

I went out to see Becky and saw Kao really angry, disappointed and even felt betrayed by me.

After telling me not to talk to Becky, I refused to listen to her and still went ahead to accept Becky's request to talk.

"You told her to come didn't you?" Kao asked

I nodded with my eyes looking down.

She looked hatefully at Becky and went inside the room. I told Becky to sit down and while she was doing that, Kao came out of the room with her bag.

"Where are you going? Come on Kao don't be like this. I just wanted to hear what she had to say." I tried explaining to Kao but she wouldn't listen

"Go ahead and do whatever you want but trust me, you'll regret it" Kao said turning around and storming out of the house.

I called her several times but she wouldn't listen and just left, I turned to Becky, signaling her to start speaking.

I was already angry and hated the fact that Kao and I are not in good terms.

"I wanted to apologize for everything that happened between us. I know it was all my fault and if I had just told you the truth from the onset, all the unnecessary troubles would have been avoided.

I broke up with you and now I'm lying telling the entire world that you're the one at fault all because they don't know what happened.

Freen I'm sorry. I'm really sorry about everything. I was caught between a rock and a hard place so I made the only rational choice anybody in my position would make." Becky explained.

"Rational choice? Did you just say rational choice? Breaking up with me the way you did is rational to you?

Treating me like trash in front of your family and lying to the public just to make me the evil one is a rational choice to you?

Can you even hear yourself?

Becky you've changed. The Becky I'm seeing right now is not the Becky I once knew."
