Hate to love S2

37.

Freen's PoV

The past weeks felt like a blur, a chaotic blend of fear and relief. Seng's arrest and the destruction of the tapes marked the end of a harrowing ordeal, but the emotional wounds were still fresh. Becky and I had survived a storm, but now we needed to find our way back to calm waters.

I woke up to the gentle sound of rain tapping against the window. Becky was still asleep beside me, her face peaceful. I brushed a strand of hair from her face and kissed her forehead, feeling a swell of love and gratitude. I knew we had a long road ahead of us, but I was determined to heal and rebuild our lives together.

Waking up next to Freen was a comfort I never wanted to lose again. The events of the past month had tested our bond, but I believed in our love more than ever. Seeing Freen's smile as she greeted me each morning gave me strength.

"Good morning, Becbec," Freen whispered, her eyes sparkling despite the lingering shadows.

"Good morning, my love," I replied, pulling her into a warm embrace. "How are you feeling today?"

"Better," she said, her voice steady. "But I think we need to talk to someone. I want to heal, and I want us to heal together."

I nodded, knowing she was right. We couldn't do this alone. "I'll make some calls today. We'll find a good therapist."

The decision to seek professional help was a turning point for Freen and Becky. They found a compassionate therapist who specialized in trauma and relationship counseling. Their sessions became a safe space to express their fears, anger, and sadness.

Freen spoke about the terror of Seng's blackmail, her guilt for not being able to protect Becky, and her deep love that had driven her to the brink of self-sacrifice. Becky, in turn, shared her anguish over Freen's suffering and her determination to stand by her side.

"You both have shown incredible strength," the therapist said during one session. "But healing is a journey, and it's okay to take it one step at a time."

Therapy was challenging, but it was also liberating. Each session peeled back layers of pain, revealing the resilience beneath. I learned to forgive myself for what had happened, understanding that the real blame lay with Seng and his manipulations.

Becky and I started new routines to strengthen our bond. We took long walks together, cooked meals, and spent quiet evenings talking about our dreams for the future. Slowly, the shadows receded, replaced by a renewed sense of hope and love.

One evening, as we sat on the porch watching the sunset, I turned to Becky and said, "Thank you for standing by me. I couldn't have done this without you."

She smiled, her eyes shimmering with unshed tears. "We're a team, Freen. And I wouldn't want to be anywhere else but here with you."

Months passed, and Freen and Becky's lives began to stabilize. They returned to their work, their routines, and their shared dreams. But this time, they were stronger, more connected, and more in love than ever.

The decision to renew their vows was a significant step in their healing journey. It was a promise to each other that no matter what challenges came their way, they would face them together. The ceremony was simple, filled with love and joy, symbolizing a fresh start built on the foundation of their unbreakable bond.

Therapy helped, but Becky's unwavering support was my anchor. We began to talk more openly about our fears and dreams, and with each conversation, I felt our connection deepen.

One day, Becky surprised me with a heartfelt gesture. "I've been thinking," she said, taking my hand. "I want us to create new memories, something special for just the two of us."

She had planned a weekend getaway to a serene cabin in the woods. It was a chance for us to disconnect from the world and reconnect with each other. We spent the days hiking, talking, and simply enjoying each other's company. It was the healing experience we both needed.

As we sat by the fireplace on the last night of our trip, Becky turned to me with a serious expression. "Freen, I love you more than anything. I know we've been through a lot, but I want us to keep building our future together."

I felt tears well up in my eyes. "I love you too, Becky. And I'm ready to face whatever comes our way, as long as we're together."

Returning from our trip, I felt a renewed sense of hope. Freen and I had faced immense challenges, but our love had only grown stronger. We decided to keep seeing our therapist and to make self-care a priority in our lives.

One afternoon, as we were walking through the park, Freen stopped and turned to me with a smile. "Becky, I've been thinking. Let's continue creating beautiful memories together. How about we start planning a trip abroad?"

I was overjoyed. "I'd love that, Freen. Let's explore the world together."

Our journey of healing and love continued, each day bringing us closer and filling our lives with the happiness we had fought so hard to protect.
