Twinkle (Never Lose Those Magical Moments 🤍)

Chapter 31

Freen picked Rhea and Becky up from their home, presenting Rhea with a plushie as a gift. The three of them soon arrived at the Cafe, where Rhea excitedly sat on Freen's lap, busy playing with her new toy. Meanwhile, Becky maintained a silence as she glanced at the menu, her mind elsewhere.

"Becky, are you fine?" Freen asked, breaking the silence. Becky looked up at her.

"If you're not feeling well, we can go home," Freen said, gently touching Becky's forehead to check her temperature.

"There's no fever, so what's going on?" Freen's concern grew as she noticed Becky's quiet demeanor since the ride.

"Nothing, Freen! Just a headache," Becky replied, brushing off the question.

"I'm sorry! Shall we go home?" Freen offered.

"No! Freen, you said we would meet someone," Becky said, her curiosity piqued.

"Yeah! She's always like this! Never on time. I'll call her," Freen said, pulling out her phone.

Just then, Sierra appeared and covered Freen's eyes with her hands, standing beside her.

Becky felt a wave of discomfort wash over her at the sight. Rhea, sensing the tension, tried to remove Sierra's hands from Freen's face.

"Leave my Green alone!" Rhea shouted, starting to hit Sierra playfully.

"Ouch!" Sierra screamed as she released Freen's eyes.

Freen laughed and calmed Rhea. "Rhea, that's enough! She is Sierra, my friend," Freen explained.

Sierra then turned to Rhea, "You're so strong! Just like Freen!" She playfully nudged Freen's shoulder and sat down next to her.

Becky kept her head down, focusing on the menu to avoid Sierra's gaze.

"Hey, Becky! Why aren't you talking to me?" Sierra initiated the conversation.

"You know me," Becky pointed to herself.

"Of course, how could I forget you?" Sierra laughed, and Freen pinched Sierra's thigh in a playful gesture.

"Ouch! Why are you both hurting me?" Sierra raised her eyebrows at Rhea and Freen, feigning offense.

Freen shot a stern look at Sierra. "Behave yourself!" she said, her irritation rising. The closeness between Sierra and Freen unsettled Becky even more.

"Becky, are you okay?" Freen called out again, noticing Becky's silence.

"Yeah!" Becky replied, though her tone lacked enthusiasm.

"Why are you spacing out?" Freen asked, her concern returning.

"Green! I need milk tea!" Rhea shouted, breaking the tension.

"Sure, cutie pie!" Freen smiled and took Rhea with her to buy the milk tea.

Once Freen left the table, Becky cleared her throat. "Are you really close with Freen?" she asked Sierra, a hint of jealousy in her voice.

"Becky, wait! Don't misunderstand anything. She's my best friend. I would never come between you two," Sierra smiled, trying to reassure her.

"What?" Becky asked, confusion evident on her face.

But before Sierra could clarify, Freen returned to the table with the milk tea in hand, ready to continue the evening.
