Author's Note:

I am sorry that I wasn't updating for a while. I was caught up with some hectic days both in personal life and at work as well. I will try to update regularly. Sorry if I disappointed anyone.

Becky strained opened her eyes to see herself on top of Freen who was still deep asleep. It was early in the morning .. Becky looked at the beautiful and handsome face in front of her. The sculpted face which is an example of perfection..A smile formed on her face without even she realizing it.

"Baby....." -- Freen stirred, breaking Becky's thoughts.

"Why are you up so early?" -- She asked in a hoarse voice which always gives butterflies in Becky's lower abdomen.

"No reason babe And it's not early... But you can sleep some more if you are sleepy.. "

"No... I'm wide awake now!" - Freen pulled her closer and sighed in content. -- "I'm sorry that I passed out yesterday night! The wine had me completely...." -- She whispered. Her fingers playing with Becky's hair.

They remained like that for sometime till Freen's phone started ringing. She tried to avoid it, but Becky turned to see the caller id. It stopped and rang again.

"Gosh.... What now?" -- Freen lazily attended the call and Becky got up with a gentle smile, avoiding the way Freen pulled her back.

By the time she took a shower and came downstairs, the breakfast was ready and Freen was already waiting for her with Mr and Mrs Chankimha. They seem to be in some serious discussion and abruptly stopped when Mr. Chankimha spotted Becky on the stairs.

"Good morning BecBec..." -- Mrs. Chankimha greeted with a wide smile, followed by Dad.

Freen seemed distracted and Becky looked at her questioningly.

"Must be about her new project. This daughter of us never stop thinking about work as you know.." -- Mr. Chankimha pulled a chair for Becky and they started serving the food.

Becky's POV

I had just finished the event and Richie was waiting for me to pick me, making me frown. Freen had told me that she would be picking me up and we would have dinner together.

"Freen called. She told me to pick you up." -- Richie opened the door for me and I got into the passenger seat. She could have at least called me!

I checked the phone and was surprised to see a number of missed calls from Irin. She was away from Bangkok for shooting and has been quite busy these days. There were many messages, but I opened Irin's.

Gummy Bear: Are you okay Bec?

Don't be worried. There is nothing to be scared of. Okay?

Call me when you can talk?

"What's going on Richie?" -- I stared at him when he started the engine. He looked at me questioningly and I showed him Irin's messages.

"Oh that.... That's nothing princess...." -- He mumbled making me angry. --

"Richie...." -- I called seriously and he turned off the engine.

"It's Nop. He got bail. We don't know how he managed to get that. It's all over the news." -- Richie said and I looked at him silently. I don't really know what to say. I don't even know how do I feel. I wish it were Freen sitting next to me. But she is not. And worst....she did not even bother to call me or messaged me.
