Raindrops and Resilience : FreenBecky

7: Bridging Hearts

Weeks had flown by since Freen and Becky openly embraced their love for each other. They had grown even closer, their bond strengthening with each passing day. Today, they were on a date, joined by Becky's two best friends, Irin and Nat, who couldn't help but tease the couple.

Sitting in a cozy café, Freen and Becky found solace in each other's presence. They were intertwined, their bodies pressed close, and their hearts beating in sync. Despite the curious glances from other people outside the café, they felt an undeniable warmth and contentment.

Irin couldn't contain her excitement as she observed them. "So, so, so, I can say that you guys are just doing fine, huh? Like right now, you guys are so open, even though people are staring at us because of how close you two are."

Becky blushed, burying her face in Freen's shoulder. "Well, we're just comfortable with each other, Irin. And besides, love knows no boundaries, right?"

Nat chimed in, a mischievous grin on her face. "Oh, come on, Becky. Admit it, you're head over heels for our dear Freen here. Look at that smile on your face."

Becky playfully nudged Nat, unable to hide her joy. "Okay, fine. I may be a little smitten. But who wouldn't be with someone as amazing as Freen?"

Freen leaned in, placing a gentle kiss on Becky's forehead. "And I feel the same way, Becky. You bring so much light and happiness into my life."

Irin sighed dramatically. "Ugh, you two are too adorable. It's giving me diabetes."

Nat added with a wink, "But we're happy for you, really. It's beautiful to see your love blooming."

Freen and Becky shared a knowing smile, their bond evident in their intertwined fingers. "I am happy, more than I've ever been," Becky replied, her voice filled with sincerity.

Nat raised an eyebrow playfully. "Oh, look at you, all lovey-dovey. You two are like a cheesy romance novel come to life."

Irin joined in the teasing. "Yeah, and we're the lucky third wheels who get to witness it all."

Freen laughed, her eyes sparkling with affection for Becky. "Well, consider yourselves privileged to witness the magic of our love story."

Becky nudged Freen gently, her cheeks tinged with a rosy blush. "Don't mind them, Freen. They're just jealous of our amazing connection."

Nat and Irin feigned mock hurt. "Jealous? Us? Never!" they exclaimed in unison, causing all four of them to burst into laughter.

"But on the other hand, any update about those traumatic events that keep flashing back in your mind? Maybe we can help you connect the pieces and find a way to cure that," Nat said, her expression turning serious.

Becky took a deep breath, grateful for her friends' concern. "I've been trying to piece it together, but it's still a bit blurry. I see glimpses of a little girl and myself on a ship, holding onto the railing while the sea below us is so scary. There's a storm and the rain is pouring down heavily."

Irin leaned forward, her eyes filled with compassion. "Do you remember anything else? Any details that might help us understand the significance of these flashbacks?"

Becky furrowed her brow, searching her memories. "There's a sense of desperation and loneliness. I feel like the two of us are calling out for help, but no one is responding. It's as if I'm trapped and unable to escape the turmoil."

Freen gently squeezed Becky's hand, offering her reassurance. "We're here for you, Babe. Together, we'll help you unravel the mystery behind these memories and find a way to heal."

"But me and Becky are doing her check-ups so that she can be fine whenever her trauma attacks," Freen explained, her voice filled with reassurance. She placed a tender kiss on the top of Becky's forehead, a gesture of love and support.
