That's the way I love you

24

Freen couldn't help but notice Noey and Irin's lovey-dovey moments, and she couldn't help but feel a mix of emotions. On one hand, she was happy for her colleague and friend for finding someone who made her so happy. On the other hand, it reminded Freen of her own feelings for Becky and the complicated situation she found herself in.

As Noey introduced Irin as her girlfriend, Freen couldn't resist teasing her friend. "Take good care of our Noey here, Irin. Make sure she doesn't go looking at other girls," she joked with a playful smile.

Irin laughed and nodded. "Don't worry, Freen. I'm head over heels for Noey, and I'm not going anywhere," she assured.

Irin and Becky had a strong bond as best friends, even though they were attending different colleges. They kept in touch regularly, sharing their ups and downs and offering each other support. Irin was well aware of Becky's confusion about choosing between Nop and Freen. She had been there for Becky through all the ups and downs of her relationship with Nop.

As Freen and Irin continued to chat, Irin couldn't help but notice how beautiful Freen was, both inside and out. She found herself thinking that Freen was a much better match for Becky than Nop. Freen was kind, caring, and understanding, and she had always been there for Becky, offering her encouragement and support.

Irin couldn't help but wonder if Becky felt the same way about Freen, deep down. She knew that Becky had strong feelings for both Nop and Freen, and she could see the internal struggle Becky was going through.

Flashback

It was a late evening, and Becky and Irin were on a call, catching up with each other's lives as they often did. Becky shared with Irin about her studies, her recent mock trial success, and her growing confusion about her feelings for both Nop and Freen.

"So, how's your relationship with Noey going? Tell me everything!" Becky said, eager to hear about her best friend's love life.

Irin giggled on the other end of the call. "Oh, it's going really well, Becky. Noey and I are so happy together. She's the sweetest, and we just click so perfectly. It's like we've known each other forever."

"That's amazing, Irin! I'm really happy for you both," Becky replied, genuinely happy for her friend's newfound happiness.

"And what about you, Becky? How are things with Nop and Freen?" Irin inquired, noticing how Becky's tone shifted slightly when she mentioned them.

Becky let out a sigh, unsure of how to put her feelings into words. "It's... complicated, Irin. I care about both of them, but in different ways. I don't know who I should choose."

Irin's eyes widened in surprise. "Wait, they are two different people, right? Like, you're not dating them both at the same time, are you?" she asked, half-jokingly.

Becky chuckled and assured Irin, "No, of course not! It's just that I have feelings for both of them, and it's confusing me. And here's the kicker - Freen is Nop's step-sister."

Irin gasped, clearly taken aback by the revelation. "Wow, Becky, your life is like a soap opera drama!" she teased.

Becky rolled her eyes playfully. "Thanks for that, Irin. I really needed more drama in my life," she said sarcastically.

Irin laughed and then turned more serious. "But in all seriousness, Becky, you need to follow your heart. You can't force yourself to choose someone if your heart is conflicted. Think about who makes you happier, who supports you, and who truly understands you. And remember, you deserve to be with someone who makes you feel loved and appreciated."

Becky nodded, knowing that Irin was right. "You're right, Irin. I just need to figure out what I truly want and who I see a future with."

"That's the spirit, Becky! Take your time, and don't rush into anything. Your heart will lead you in the right direction," Irin encouraged.
