When Becky joined the group, Freen had her eyes on her, wanting to get her attention, wanting to signal if maybe they could go somewhere and talk. But she was taken aback when Becky saw the empty space between Freen and Nam, and chose to walk through it and go sit next to Friend.

Freen would have taken time to overthink it, but she had something else to worry about now. The minute Becky took a seat near Friend, Friend put her arm through Becky's and leaned in on her shoulder, drunk and light-headed as she was.

What surprised her further was Becky's chuckle at her. Becky wasn't pushing her away or awkwardly or politely asking her to respect her personal space.

The entire night Freen had been wondering if she had drank too much. Now all she could think about was why she hadn't drank enough. She hated that she had to sit and watch this happen right here. Becky was punishing her. And she wondered how much of this she was expected to take. After yesterday, she had thought that maybe they were past the phase of punishing Freen. But clearly, it wasn't over.

Everyone took turns spinning the bottle, most picked truth, some picked dare, it was all fun and games, but Freen couldn't bring herself to enjoy. She was a little too distracted with the way Friend and Becky touched each other now and then.

Nam had been sipping on water now for a while, and she could see Freen's discomfort. "Listen, nong.. it's your party, you can end it whenever you like." She whispered to her.

Mind didn't need to hear what Nam was saying to nod in agreement towards Freen. They could all see Becky was quite drunk and she would probably regret all of this later, but it would leave a lasting scar on Freen's heart.

The bottle was now pointing at Becky.

"Shoot!" Becky said.

"Truth or Dare..?" Heng asked.

Becky smirked. "Both."

Freen took a long sip of her drink.

"Okay kub, truth first, are you over Freen?" The question was bold. Heng was super drunk. Nam gave him a death stare.

"Of course, a long time ago in fact. I could give you phone numbers of two fine young ladies if you'd like to know just how over her I am!"

The group was mildly surprised at her answer, but they hooted and cheered nonetheless. Freen stared straight at Becky. Trying so hard to reach some place of her that would realize what she was doing right now.

Becky had hinted once before that she may have been with other women in the time they were apart, but saying it out loud this way, almost in a manner to shame Freen, that was harsh. Tears were already threatening to show.

Nam placed her hand on Freen's thigh, needing her to hold it together and also wanting to offer some kind of comfort. While Mind didn't know how to react towards Becky. She understood why Becky felt she needed to act this way.

"Make that 3 actually..." Becky said, her eyes directed towards Freen, but her hand now making its way around Friend's and pulling her into her side.

Freen looked away. She couldn't watch this. And she couldn't let Becky do this to her. She may have made a stupid mistake in her life. She probably deserved a whole lot of pain for it. But this, this was just too much to face on a day like today. They were supposed to be celebrating her birthday.

"Guys... I think we should call it a night na!" Nam said out loud, wanting to end the party.

But an oblivious and drunk Opp spoke up saying, "Oh come on, at least let her take up her dare too!!"

Nam sighed in frustration, then someone called out, "Kiss her! Kiss Friend. Prove it!!"

Becky laughed. Heartily. She then looked at Freen. Freen wasn't sure why, whether she was looking to make sure she was watching, or looking to check that she was not. But Freen's eyes were watery now, and Becky couldn't see that through her drunken haze.
