48. How Becky Takes the Negativity away.

Becky.

After what happened, Freen seemed to be quiet. She ate without speaking a single word. She must be affected of her dad walking out of the party. After our dinner we proceeded to the high table near the bar. Freen excused herself to get some drinks.

The chairs and tables are now being replaced by high tables and at the center would be the dance floor. They also put a DJ booth on the stage. Soon music were being played by the DJ and people now coming at the dance floor.

Freen came back with our drinks.

"I got you an Aperol Spritz." She said smiling.

I noticed her smile didn't reach her eyes. I was about to say something but Heng suddenly appeared between us from the back.

"Excuse me Ms. Becca or Becky Armstrong from Becca's blooms." I knew he'll look for an opportunity to tease us.

He laughed seeing me red in the face but soon he was coughing as he was elbowed by Freen on his stomach.

"Hey, That's the second time!"

"Stop being an ass so you won't get hurt."

"See she's still feisty like before." Heng said still rubbing his stomach. "In all seriousness, I'm here to ask Becca."

He then faced me. "Becca can I steal your girl for a minute. I'll Just teach her what a host should do instead of just standing here drinking."

"What? I'm enjoying the party."

"Yes you are. But aren't you the host as well? You should be attending to the guests as well. May I remind you we invited our clients as well as those whim we proposed to."

"Oh. Yeah. Being a host sucks."

"It's your Dad's fault giving this huge event when we could just celebrate with the staff."

"May I remind you Dad paid for everything here. What you ate... what you drank..."

"Okay... Okay I get it." He looked at me again. "So Becca, may I steal your girl?"

My girl? Is she even my girl? I want to say she's not yet my girl but I thought not to. Not now specially at Freen's state.

"Yes you may."

"Let's go and entertain." He said pulling Freen.

"I'll be back." Freen said touching my arm. I smiled at her and nodded.

I watched her as she went over to the other table talking to clients.

"So... You and my sister huh." Theia suddenly appeared beside me.

"Its... we're actually not together... Yet..."

"Oh really? So you're not yet her girlfriend?"

I nodded. I don't even know what we are.

"Well, that's surprising specially my sister just basically announced to everyone here that you're her date."

"Yeah, she asked me to come with her as her date... But I'm not sure what are we." I said before taking a sip from my drink.

I forgot that this taste so good.

"I was told how hot you two danced on my birthday party and based on how my sister acted tonight. I could definitely say you two are dating."

Are we? I'm now getting embarrassed cause I don't even know what are we.
