Unspoken Truth

Day 4 pt.2 "Friends and Lovers"

Freen's viewpoint

What would you feel if someone stole your favorite toy or candy? What more of your favorite person? Would you just let them take it, or would you fight for them? But what if you have no claims on it? This is giving me headaches. The saddest part is that I can feel my heart shattering into bits. "How do broken hearts end up?"

Freen, what brings you here? I've been searching everywhere for you. Do you feel ill? Becky's voice is worried as she tries to touch Freen's forehead.

I'm fine. I simply need some fresh air. Don't worry, it's my home. I know every turn without the assistance of anyone. Mon, why are you here? Nop will be looking for you!

Why should I care? He is not my boyfriend. Becky merely shrugs.

He's not your boyfriend yet! He's obviously smitten with you. You let him kiss you. Freen tries to disguise her irritation in her voice.

It's truth or dare, Freen. It's simply a game, and he only kissed my hand. It's all Nam's fault. She, not I, dared Nop.

Nam has asked for both of you. Noey interrupts, with Irin trailing after her.

That's correct. What are you two doing here? The party has begun. I'm curious about Mon. Irin added.

Becky merely rolled her eyes. While Freen was alone in the garden, the gang interrogated her. She discussed her intention to tell the truth to Freen within seven days.

Nam has asked her why she hasn't contacted any of them in five years. Becky answered by telling them the truth after she told Freen. Becky is constantly mocked by her friends since they know she has always prioritized Freen.

Guys, we'll be there in a minute. Freen intervenes. I just need some time with Mon.

Irin and Noey exchange glances. Becky can't help but be nervous. Okay, if that's what you want. Don't blame us if Mind consumes all of the food. Noey laughed in response.

We'll go ahead, Freen. See you later, Mon. Irin waved goodbye.

Noey and Irin swiftly rejoined the gang. dudes, dudes. Irin exclaims, "Nam and Mind!" Our strategy is effective. They're in the garden, and Freen wants to spend some time alone with Becky.

See, Nam, I told you. It will work. Mind proudly tapped her chest. I knew Freen would be jealous of Nop.

Where is he, by the way? Noey enquired.

I made him go shopping. Mon wants ice cream, I told him. Nam wiggles her brows. Nop is unaware that Becky and Mon are the same person. They ran into Nop on their route to Freen. They recognize Nop because of the flower shop.

It's about time they were open about their affection for each other. Noey spoke up.

I agree. Irin added. They were so cute in high school that everybody who didn't know them assumed they were a couple.

They were the cause of my diabetes. They're sickeningly sweet. Mind's remark makes Nam laugh. You developed diabetes because you ate too much.

I agree. Irin smirked. Noey also laughs.

Thank you very much, guys. I appreciate your affection for me. Mind responded sarcastically.

Seriously, I hope they get their act together. They definitely adore and care for one another. I'm not sure what's keeping them apart. Nam questioned.

That's correct. Remember when Becky was hospitalized due to dehydration? Even though she was still wearing her pajamas, Freen went straight to the hospital. Noey interjects.

What did Freen respond to when we inquired why she was dressed in pajamas?  Nam raised her right brow. That she will sleep with Becky. She can't leave her darling alone in a hospital bed. Everyone chuckled as Irin and Mind spoke in unison.

To think we were only in primary school at the time. Nam added.

Those two were both amusing and endearing. Remember when they chose each other as PROM partners and Becky refused to be PROM queen because she just wanted Freen to be her king? Irin murmured it dreamily.

What could those two possibly be up to right now? Mind queried. Let's go take a look at them. The group agreed and proceeded to the garden. Nam requested that they keep quiet so as not to distract the two. They quickly concealed themselves behind the window curtains.

Becky's leaning in. Irin was surprised.

I wish we could see the expression on Freen's face. I'm sure she's closing her eyes now. Mind also added.

They are so taken with what they are witnessing that Nam misses the vase and hits it by accident. The sound of shattered glasses crashing to the ground surprised everyone, including Freen and Becky.

Becky's viewpoint

Is it common to want to murder your friends? I really want to do it right now. Will Freen be upset if I take their lives? I'm so near. Just a few centimeters farther, and I should have kissed her lips. My wicked pals ruined it. I've been dreaming about her lips for a long time. Why can't my wish come true? Before we were interrupted, here's how the story goes:

Come sit next to me, Mon. I don't bite. Freen smiled.

But I do. I want to bite your lips. Becky told herself, "Sure, what do you want to talk about, Freen?"

Nothing at all. I just missed you. You don't seem to have noticed me since Nop arrived.

That isn't possible. My gaze is fixed on you. Becky attempted to explain herself.

So, why didn't you notice I came here and you had to look for me? Freen retaliates.

Fair enough. Your companions distracted my attention by asking too many questions. Becky can't help but smile. Is Nop making Freen jealous? Becky pondered this.

You appear to be amused by Nop's cheesy jokes. Mon, I can hear your laugh. It echoed throughout the room.

His jokes are corny, as you mentioned. I'm not laughing at him. It's because Irene constantly tickles my thigh. I had a feeling those sneaky bastards were up to something. Becky thought.

Freen goes quiet. I apologize, Mon. I have no right to ask those questions. You don't owe me an explanation. You have complete freedom to do whatever you choose. Don't let me stop you.

You don't have to apologize, Freen. Your questions were endearing to me. I may be high right now, but am I right in thinking that you are jealous of Nop?

What do you want to hear, Mon?

The truth! Just tell me the truth, Freen.

Yes, I am. I am jealous of you and Nop. I want your full attention. I don't mind being labeled possessive. I just want you to be mine.

What if I told you that I felt the same way? Your eyes, they say, are the window to your soul. I wish you could look at mine. Can I show you how I feel through your lips if your eyes won't let me? Freen gives a nod. That's all Becky needs, but they were cut off.

What is it, Mon? Something broke. Someone could be hurt.

Becky can do nothing except sigh. Freen is a compassionate individual. She can't stop caring about other people. She notices her buddies approaching.

I apologize, Freen. I shattered your vase. Nam apologizes and gives Becky a peace sign.

Noey taps Becky on the shoulder and whispers. Better luck next time.

Can I kill them now? Becky thinks and slumps her shoulders.

How are you all doing? Spread the word of love. Take care.
