Activate (Freen×Becky)

3

Becky had to rush out of the house because she was few minutes too late. Sure she was left with a hour to doll herself up but it can’t be help when Freen, in her new set of clothes which was Becky’s, kept asking her what are these and what are those, followed by her endless “Master?”

She has noted in her mind to tell the bear to stop calling her that later. But one thing she was sure of, Freen has no knowledge at all.

She thought about shooing her out but, she knows nothing! Freen looks, and sound so fragile and innocent. Not to mention cute, somehow. Freen was tugging Becky’s shirt when she saw her making her way out of the house, “Master, where are you going?” followed by a pout. She can’t help but to pat her cheeks, telling her “I’ll be back, just don’t go anywhere, okay?”

The bear looked down on her feet, but stopped tugging anyway. “Be back soon..” She mumbled before Lummi lured her away from the scene with a cookie. “Ooh! What is that??” Curiosity once again won over Freen as she followed Lummi, who eyed her sister to go already.

Becky was really thankful. But somehow she felt a little disappointed when Freen turned her attention too quick. But that didn’t really matter as for the moment, she really needs to hurry up. Sigh of relief escaped her mouth when ‘The Pinks’ the ice cream parlour where she was suppose to be with Irene and Tim in 20 minutes ago, she checked the time on her watch.

Luckily for her, the two can still be seen when she popped her head in the parlour, she chuckled watching as Irene kept pushing and pulling Tim’s ice cream when she wanted to scoop it.

She stopped her antic when she saw Becky walking towards them, giving Tim a chance to snatch her ice cream for Irene and protecting it like her whole life depended on it.

“What took you so long?? My ice cream is melting already!” The satan stood up and puts her hands on Becky’s shoulders. “Idiot, you already finished your ice cream.”

Tim huffed, slightly flipping her locks so the ice cream won’t stain it. Becky glared at Irene who’s still in her act.

Becky then settled herself on the empty part of the round table. “Sorry, the force is not with me today.” Tim passed her the banana And chocolate swirl that they ordered for her, “Unusual morning?” She took the ice cream which hasn’t, by God’s grace, fully melted yet not before mouthing a thank you.

“You have no idea.”

“What happened?” It was Irene and her two Besties are now eyeing her. Becky it her lower lips. “Well..” She took a deep breathe before continuing. “I Bought home a teddy bear that was stranded on the street yesterday on my way home.

“Okay?” Irene’s eyes twitched at the thought of the granny bringing home a teddy bear, not knowing whether it’s a bomb or not. She was about to asked.

“I know what you guys are thinking and NO it’s not a bomb” She rolled her eyes before stuffing herself with her ice cream.

They both laughed awkwardly as Becky knew what they were thinking. “The teddy bear.. It somehow caught my attention. I mean- who would leave a cute little stuffed animal on the street? It’s not even dirty and it looks new, smells nice too! So I bought It home. She glanced at the two, they just Nodded, hinting her continue.

“Well… It was so cute that I hugged it to sleep.” “Whaa? You hugged a stuffed animal to sleep? Irene was now jaw dropping when the grandma just admitted something embarrassing despite their current age.

Tim, in the other hand, tried not to laugh. The reactions she’s receiving now made her frown.

“Yah… That’s not the point of the whole story! I haven’t finish yet!” She whined.
