Jenny Faye's Buddy (Complete)

Chapter : 8 Busted Plan

For the longest time that Alice and Jenny Faye were hanging out, never did they talk about Tommy; For Jenny Faye, she didn't bother asking the former to keep her from suspecting her sudden interest with his boyfriend; Alice, on the other hand, didn't tell Jenny Faye as there wasn't any point in bringing it up. Luck must be on Jenny Faye's side as there hasn't been an instance of being busted in any of the times that the two girls were together. But it won't be long...

Friday morning - Legal Holiday : No classes! Alice knew that Tommy was supposed to meet up with his group mates to work on their thesis. He set expectations with her that it'll be for the entire day so as not to keep her from waiting for him. The good thing about their relationship is that, they didn't necessarily have to be together all the time. They believe that absence makes the heart grow fonder. And it surely does.

Since Alice will have the whole day by herself, she decided to text Jenny Faye instead. It'll be a very 'beautiful' day, she thought as she was considering pampering herself. 'It'll be a great way to bond with Jenny!' she hoped.

She texted Jenny Faye and luckily, the latter just finished working on parts of her thesis. She has to work double time as the school year's about to end. She just didn't want to graduate...she'd like to belong to the upper 20 percent of the graduating class.

When she received Alice's message, she immediately fixed herself. She felt excited with the thought of spending R&R with her. This is one girl bonding she'll never resist. Besides, stress is slowly taking over her as there's a lot to accomplish to make sure that she'll graduate with flying colors.

When they finally met, they decided to start first with getting a 'couple' massage. The session only lasted for 2 hours but it was heaven. Both enjoyed it immensely. As soon as they're done, they decided to have a mani-pedi session. They had so much fun just picking colors. 'It's ironic!' Jenny Faye thought. 'I am having so much fun spending time with the very person who took Tommy away from me.'

She realized then during one brief idle moment : 'Why am I even spending so much time obsessing with the idea of keeping Tommy away from Alice. Am I falling for him?! But it'll be unfair. I'm sure liking me didn't even cross his mind.

Unknowingly, while she was so engrossed in her thoughts, Alice was already exchanging text messages with Tommy. The latter asked where Alice was. He thought of surprising her as they were done for the day. Alice told Tommy where her next stop will be. All this time, Tommy thought that she was with one of her gal friends. He didn't bother asking. Now, he is about to witness the biggest shock of his life!

After their mani-pedi session, Alice invited Jenny Faye for coffee. She agreed to but had to use the powder room first so Alice went ahead and looked for a vacant table. Surprised to see Tommy, she hugged him tightly, not mindful of the presence of a few people in the cafe'. They were able to finally settle down. The table was a bit near the powder room so Jenny Faye didn't have a hard time looking for her. And then the inevitable happened!

Tommy and Jenny Faye finally met! Both were petrified at the sight of each other. At the back of Jenny Faye's mind : 'This is it!' while Tommy grew furious as he felt stupid in front of both of the girls.

"What the hell are you up to Jenny Faye?!" Tommy's voice was controlled yet threatening.

"I don't know what you're talking about Tommy!" Jenny Faye denied under her breath. Alice grew even more confused as the event finally unfolded before her very eyes. "What's the meaning of this!? You know each other?!" Tears finally fell from her eyes after several minutes of staring silently at the two clashing rocks.

"L-Let me explain Alice...A-Alice!" Tommy followed through as the girl stormed away from the cafe'.

"You'll pay for this dearly, Jenny Faye!" he threatened her as he prepared to follow Alice.

Realizing what just happened, Jenny Faye's body started trembling as tears fell from her eyes. She slowly regretted everything she did. Alice didn't deserve all this. It was all her fault!

'It must be love I'm feeling right now. Only at the wrong time.' Jenny Faye sobbed as, she too, left the cafe'...Away from people's questioning stares.
