No one's POV.
A still sleepy Nam knocked at Freen and Becky's door.
"Freen?" She knocked again. "Freen, you have a call from the receptionist. They want to know if you'll confirm today's reservation."
Nam knocked again before the door opens. Becky appeared half awake. When Nam looked at her, her eyes went wide.
"Becca!" She said before she went in, pushing Becky inside and closed the door. "Becca! You don't open the door in just your undies."
It looked like Nam just realized something. Her mouth opened and formed into an O. Nam thought: Becky took a while before she opened the door. She just woke up. She peeked at the bed and saw Freen still sleeping under the comforter. She couldn't see if she's even wearing something. It's as if...
Nam pulled Becky closer.
"Did you had sex last night?" She whispered to Becky. It was now Becky's turn to be wide eyed. What Nam said made her now fully awake.
"Nam! What are you saying!" She covered Nam's mouth and whispered back while glancing at the bed. Hoping Freen didn't hear that.
Nam took off Becky's hand on her mouth and whispered. "That's what you made me think. It took you a while before opening the door, you wearing just a top and undies and Freen's still sleeping and who knows if she's naked under the covers..."
Backy covered her mouth again. "Shhh! She might hear you!"
Nam took of her hand again.
"I'm right, aren't I?"
"No! Nothing happened last night. When I came back I wash up and went straight to bed. I forgot to bring any shorts. For heaven's sake Nam! Stop your dirty mind!"
Nam narrowed her eyes as she stared at Becky's eyes. It's as if she's checking if Becky's lying.
"What are you two doing there?" The two were startled upon hearing the voice.
They both looked at where it came from. There was Freen sitting on the bed squinting, clearly just woken up.
"Nothing!" Becky quickly said.
"The reception called, looking for you. They're asking if your reservation for today is confirmed."
Heng's head appeared from the door.
"What's taking you too long?" He asked Nam.
"Do you guys have plans?"
"None!" Heng said going inside the room.
Nam and Becky squealed for Becky was still wearing just undies. But it soon stopped for a blanket quickly wrapped Becky.
Both Nam and Becky looked to where it came from, they were startled to see Freen was holding the ends of the blanket.
Nam smiled and said. "Wow. That's quick." She looked at Becky who was turning pink in the face.
Heng who has no clue of what had happened for he didn't notice Becky. He shrugged and said. "No, Freen. We don't have anything planned for today."
"Okay. You call the receptionist and say it's confirmed."
"Wait. Why me?"
"Wasn't it you who said you'd want to be included in anything I reserve? It's okay if you don't. I'll call them myself."
Heng quickly stopped Freen. "No. No. I'll do it. You two just get ready."
Heng pulled Nam out of the room with him and closed the door.
Becky and Freen looked at each other then diverted their eyes somewhere else.
Becky felt touched on how attentive Freen was. She reacted right away to cover her while Becky was just there squealing.
After almost an hour they all went down for breakfast. After eating, Heng asked. "So, Freen. What are the activities we'll do?"
"I suggest we all warm up our bodies outside. Let's go." Freen said offering her hand to Becky.
Becky was stunned yet took her hand right away. Meanwhile Heng and Nam looked at each other and smiled before they followed them hand in hand.
When they reached the receiving area Freen started to do some stretching which they all followed. After a few minutes, a staff approached Freen and they were all led to an off road jeep.
"Woah! This is cool!" He quickly went to it.
They were handed helmets and life jackets.
"What's the life jackets for?"
"You'll see." Freen said smiling.
The staff helped them get into the back of the jeep.
All the girls were nervous while Heng was excited. The ride was uneventful at first but when the jeep turned right towards the forest, that's when all of them started to have fun. All the girls were laughing as it gets bumpier as they drove into the forest. They were nervous yet it was fun at the same time.
Freen bravely stood while holding tightly on the railing. Meanwhile Becky had one hand holding unto the railing the other on Freen's waist.
Becky looked at Freen then said. "Freen you better sit now, it's getting more bumpier. It's too dangerous."
Freen looked at her smiling. "It's not. It's more fun facing the front. Come..." He took Becky's hand from her waist and pulled her up. "Try it."
Becky don't want at first but seeing how Freen was smiling widely, she gave in. She stood and held unto the railing with her dear life.
True to what Freen said. It was more fun facing forward. It's less impact on the body which lets them enjoy the ride more. Freen took hold of Becky's hand. This made Becky smiled widely at Freen, in which the latter smiled back.
The trees were noticably getting fewer as they drove by.
"Look!" Heng said pointing ahead.
They all turned to look ahead and was immediately at awe when they saw ahead of them was a meadow.
The jeep drove into a trail avoiding the flowers on the meadow. Heng took his phone out and called the girls so they could take a picture. All of them posed with a big smile on their face.
