Stay[Freenbecky]

Chapter 8

Freen is tired— no, she’s damn exhausted. She has practice every day with the varsity team and also with the dance crew. It’s been like this for two weeks now but today seems like a lot more tiring and she doesn’t know why. All she wants right now is to rest on her fluffy bed and just rest for like forever.

But it seems like fate hates her as she sees a running hamster towards her, “Hi!” Becky greeted with a huge smile on her lips.

But Freen doesn’t have the same energy to actually be all jumpy like the other girl so she just greeted her with a short nod. And Becky, seeing the cold response of the older saddens her a bit. It’s not what she has expected to get in return after greeting the older girl.

So, seeing the forlorn look of Freen, Becky wanted to cheer the other girl, “You know, I saw Noey slipping at the stairs earlier. I even snapped some photos.” She started with a small chuckle, “Look, she looks really funny, right?” She tried looking for the photos before showing it to the other girl.

She pouted before putting her phone back in her pocket, “Ah, I heard Love asked Irin for a date this weekend.” She looked at her side, watching the expressions of the older girl, “Uhm, you know, I wanted to go to this place. I never got the chance to go there because well, I’m not allowed to because of my condi—”

“Stop it, Becky.”

Becky never expected hearing it from Freen. The harsh and cold tone coming from Freen as something Becky never thought of hearing. Yes, Freen is cold but she’s also a sweet girl, so hearing such coming from the other girl hurts her.

Freen looked at her, “Just shut it, okay?” Freen sighed before running her fingers through her hair, “I’m tired. I just want to go home and rest, so please. Please, just leave me alone.” Her frustration is clouding her mind, so she just talked without really thinking.

Becky was taken aback to say the least, she hates the cold feeling swarming in her chest but she smiled. She smiled at the other girl before nodding softly, “Alright, I’m sorry.” She steps back, her hands gripping the hem of her shirt, “I understand. Take care on your way home, then.”

Freen just watched the other girl walk away, not sensing that she had hurt the other girl. But seeing the slump back of the younger while walking away from her made her feel guilty.

Freen is prideful, so instead of just following the other girl and apologize for talking in such way she started walking towards the opposite direction away from Becky.

“What are you guys doing here?” Freen asked the moment she stepped inside of her unit.

Her friends are all sitting on her huge couch in the living room watching God knows what, definitely feeling at home.

Nam was the first one to notice her, “Hey, welcome back.” She greeted before looking at the huge screen again, “Did you send Becky home safe?”

“I didn’t send her home.” She answered before walking towards her kitchen to grab a glass of water.

Her friends looked her with mouths ajar and eyes widening, “You didn’t?” Noey asked, a piece of popcorn slipping out of her mouth. Gross.

“Yeah, why would I?” She asked in return after drinking.

Nam stood up and walk towards Freen before hitting the girl hard, “Oh my god, I can’t believe I’m friends with you.” Nam muttered.

“What the fuck?” Freen glared at her best friend who hit the hell out of her while rubbing her shoulder.

Love also walk towards the dense girl, “Yeah, what the fuck.” She pinch the older’s ear, “She waited for you for three damn hours and you didn’t even bother sending her home?” Love hissed.
