Way Back Into You

Chapter Four: Jealous

Becky POV

I'm with Kade and Ms. Nam in one of our showrooms. We're picking some furniture to add in the list we might need for the project.

We're busy checking the availability of every item when Ms. Nam's phone rang. She checked who the caller was and when she read the callers name she just ignored it. She didn't answer but it kept on ringing.

I heard her hissed before finally picked up the call.

"What now?" she said looking pissed. "Let's talk about it later. I'm at work." then she quickly turned off the call.

Kade and I looked at each other. Ms. Nam's mood change. She's now looking pissed in everyone. maybe they have a fight whoever that caller is.

A couple of minutes passed , her phone ring again. She rolled her eyes before answering "I said I'm at work" she paused to hear whatever on the other line might say. "You should control yourself more. I already told you to think first before doing anything that can hurt yourself in the end."

Her expression change after a while. She seems sad for what she heard.

"Okay, don't worry babe I will come to your condo tonight. we will talk about everything. Stop crying now. you know I'm always here for you right?"

She excused herself for a while.

After maybe half an hour she ended the call and came to us.

We're already done to our business here, we got out and waited for the company vehicle to move us at the office. I saw Ms. Nam keep on texting someone. Her expression keeps on changing from mad then becomes softened. I caught her staring at me but she look away when she realize that I'm also staring at her.

When we entered the lobby of our office building, the receptionist gave Ms. Nam a bouquet of pink roses with a note. I saw her smile after she read the note and take a picture of her with the flowers.

Kade and I are just observing. maybe her lover made something that makes her mad and wants to reconcile.

"Do you want to eat lunch outside guys?" she asked us after a while. "my treat" she added.

"Actually, we've been planning to eat in Italian restaurant now Ms." Kade answered.

"Then, let's go ? I'm really hungry." she look at me and I just nod.

Kade suggested using one car and we immediately agreed.

We were about to enter Kade's car when a red porché came in and blocked our way.



Ms. Nam immediately turned and walk through the porché driver side.

I gasps when I saw who's the driver is.

Freen

Ms. Nam hugged her tightly and cried. Freen also cried while saying sorry.

My heart breaks into pieces at the scene. Freen already have someone else. She already forgot everything about me.

Kade held my hand and guide me to walk inside my office. She immediately hugged me and I burst out of tears.

"It's okay Becky." she said while wiping my tears.

"Kade, it's all my fault, I'm hurting now because of what I did. I pushed her away. I pushed away the only person who taught me how to love. now, she finally got someone new." I said while sobbing.

.....

I'm here at Freen's condo. -or should I say our condo. this is the place where we used to live when we're still together. we move into the house that my parents gave us as a wedding gift after maybe half a year of being married. I raised my right hand to press onto the doorbell but as my finger is inches away, the door swings open.

"Ms. Armstrong" she said eyes wide open.

My heart begins to beat utterly fast as I only stand and stare at her without her realizing how much I missed her and how much I wanted to hug and kiss her.

"Freen" that is the only word came out from my mouth.

"what are you doing here Ms. Armstrong ?" she said wondering why I'm here.

"I want to talk to you about-"

"come in first Ms. Armstrong." she cut my words. She left opening the door for me to step inside. as soon as I entered my eyes wandered around her condo, everything seemed to be the same except the Frame hanging on top of the television.

I am left speechless as she turns to look at me.

"care to tell me why you're here?"

I'm about to start to talk when I saw Ms. Nam getting out of the kitchen.

She's wearing a white long sleeve shirt with messy bun hair.

Is she living with Freen?

"It's Ms. Armstrong babe." Freen said and smile at her.

a sudden feeling of jealousy came inside me. She doesn't smile when she's talking to me but with her she always shows how happy she is.

"Oh Ms. Rebecca, what are you doing here? do you need something to Freen?" Nam asked. "come sit first"

I don't know what to say. I'm here to tell Freen that I already regret what I did three years ago. that I love her and it's just my ego hurting that's why I pushed her away. But how can I tell her that if her girlfriend is also here?

"nothing Ms. Nam, I just came by to catch up about her. she's been a friend of mine for almost two years so I came here to say hello."

I know it's a lame excuse but I can't say to Ms. Nam what is the real reason why I'm here.

I can't say to her that I'm here because I want to win back her girlfriend.

Nam POV

I know it's not the real reason why Becky is here. It's been two weeks since the last time I saw her. That's when we were planning to eat outside but Freen came to me to reconcile.

I can see sadness in her eyes, the same emotion I see at Freen's.

Freen still in love her. I'm sure of that.

The last time Freen saw her, she almost hit by a car. she drunk too much that night and didn't know what happen. She came to my condo wasted. she cried a lot and even hurt herself.

That was the reason I get mad at her.

I thought she's already over with Becky but I'm wrong. and now based on Becky's reaction when she saw me, I think she's jealous. Is it possible that she also have a feelings with my best friend?

I need to know the answer of my question. I will find a way to know.

"I think I should go now Freen." Becky said and Freen just let her go.

I should do something for these two.
