Freen's POV
The next couple of days involved mostly us in the garage upgrading my bike so it will fit the specs requirements of the invitational.
On some days, Becky would join us just to hang out. It was not really just me and her but it was fun.
"You're here again?"
Nam joked one day when Becky suddenly arrived bringing boxes of pizza. Becky just stuck her tongue at her before putting the boxes down on the table.
"Stop distracting Freen like this."
Nam said jokingly before grabbing a slice of pizza. Becky looked at me with those eyes and then she smiled.
"You can distract me anytime."
I said chuckling. I stood up from the sofa and took a slice of pizza. Nam looked at me and then Becky while munching. She had this satisfied look on her face. A genuine feeling of happiness washed over me.
"We're actually almost done for the day. We just need to test this bad girl out on the tracks. Wanna come?"
Nam said before taking another slice of pizza. She downed it in three bites and that's when I realized we hadn't had anything to eat since this morning.
Becky hooked her arm on Nam's like a kid in front of a candy store.
"Really?? Yes!"
She said happily. Nam patted her head like a kid and then chuckled. I was just watching them with a smile on my face. Nam is like a sister to me, seeing her this comfortable with the girl that I like, makes me happy.
I do? I like Becky?
I guess so. She makes me smile and happy.
I rode thr bike to the tracks while Becky and Nam drove there in Nam's car. I arrived on the tracks first so I decided to do one lap.
I assessed the condition of my bike and compared it to how it was originally. It was better than it was before but not yet at par with the ones I got to try. I exhaled sharply in frustration as I hit the breaks.
"Woah woah woah. Easy there."
Nam said while walking towards me. I removed my helmet and placed it on top of my bike's seat. I know that Nam can see the frustration written all over my face.
"It's that bad?"
She asked. Becky looked at her and then at me. I combed my hair using my fingers and sighed.
"Will this work?"
I asked a little down. Nam gave me a reassuring smile before nodding.
"Let me drive it."
She said. I gave her the keys and watch her as she wear her own helmet. She took my helmet and tossed it over to me. I catched it.
"Come here."
I said while holding Becky's hip guiding her to the sideline. We watched Nam do two laps. I saw Becky still watching Nam as she drove around the track in record speed.
