Always You

It's been a month since I started staying at Faye's apartment. She rarely visits since she said she was out of the country. I always ask Faye when I use her car when I need to go to the Uni and also when I need to buy something.

I didn't need to buy groceries since every week there was a housekeeper who cleaned the house and bought the groceries. I tried giving them money for it but they said Faye had already given them the budget for the grocery. I just let it go since they don't usually listen to me when I tell them about money.

Two more weeks and I'll go to the hospital to check if the brace could be removed. It hurts a little but unlike before that when I tried using it, it felt like it was being beaten. Now I could walk without crutches but still use them to ensure they heal properly.

I messaged Faye that I'll be using her car cos I need to go to the bank. And she just replied 'Ok. Take care' I replied thanks. While I was driving my way to the bank, I received a call from Becca asking if I could accompany her to the mall. I told her I could but after I was done at the bank. She said ok and told me to just meet at the mall.

I went inside the bank and I asked for the manager so, I could ask if I could get a little extension because I was in an accident. The manager told me that my debt was already paid. I was confused cos as I remember I still have almost a hundred thousand balance.

I asked them to double check and they told us that it was paid two weeks ago. I asked them who paid but according to the system. A man came and paid for it. I thanked them and apologized for the trouble. The manager smiled and told me it was okay. I smiled and went out.

My head was buzzing thinking who would pay my debt. Then my phone rang and I saw that it was Becca. I answered and she immediately asked me where I was and I told her I was already on my way. I was about to ask her if she was the one who paid the bank. She ended the call after saying take care. I guess I'll just ask her later.

When I arrive at the mall. I called Becca asking her where is she. She said she was at the food court and she already ordered so we could eat first before we bought the thing she wanted. I walked to the food court and I saw Becca waving her hand.

I sat down and saw the food she ordered. I told her I couldn't eat those since it has tomatoes in them. She apologized and told me she had forgotten. I told her it's okay and I'll just have the Grilled Pork with a side of pickled cucumber.

Becca stands up and gets my order. She also requested that the extra food be wrapped so we could give it to the street children. While eating I remembered the bank so I asked her if she was the one who paid off my debt and she told me she wasn't since I didn't want her to pay for it.

I asked her if she was telling the truth and she promised that she didn't pay for it. I told her the story and she told me to just be thankful and if ever I meet the person who paid for it just thank him. I smiled and agreed with her.

After buying the things Becca needed. I told her I wanted to visit the orphanage and give them some groceries since I had extra money now. She agreed and told me she'd add some. I smiled. I told her I'd just withdraw my remaining 5 thousand and I'll use it to buy groceries for the orphanage. She nodded and said she'll do the same.
