Work Text:
Everything was going well.
The event had been a success, even if Becky had to spend the entire time holding herself back from rolling her eyes at every word that came out of Seng's mouth.
She just needs to survive for a few more minutes.
But luck was not in her favor. Because a fan question, which should have just been a question, opened the doors of hell. And Seng being Seng didn't miss the opportunity.
“My question is, if you could ask each other for advice about Freen, what would it be?”
You're kidding me - Becky thought to herself before taking a deep breath and responding politely.
“I don’t think I need advice. P’Freen and I, we understand each other very well. We have no problems talking, so I think I know her well enough that I don't need to ask anyone for advice. Except for Mom.”
She gave herself a mental high five. She could clearly imagine Freen smiling and giving her a tumbs up.
But luck was really not in her favor.
“Well, I’d like some advice, Becky.” - Seng replied, turning to her - “As you know, things between me and Freen are not going very well. And as her best friend, I would like you to help me.” - he said with a cynical smile.
Oh you bastard. - Becky thought to myself
“I don’t think this is the best place for that kind of conversation. - tries Becky
But Seng being Seng, insists.
“She has been so cold to me. She barely talks to me.” - he says pretending to be so very sad.
“I’m sure she didn’t mean to hurt you Seng. I can tell she tried. ” - Becky says trying to calm down in the face of Seng's cynicism - “If things didn't work out, it wasn't her fault. “
“It seems to me like you know something Becky.” - instigates Seng
“What I know is that she moved on. She’s happy with someone else.” - she says - “There were many moments of loneliness. In which you mistreated her heart.”
“I know I made a lot of mistakes, Rebecca. “-He says, with a clear air of fake sadness-“ But I’ve changed. I want a new chance. Please convince her to come back with me.”
Your acting is not that boy. Even a blind person can see right through you. - Becky thinks before getting up.
“I can assure you that she’s fine now. That she found someone who cares for her. Who doesn't judge any of her flaws. And now she knows that she doesn't have to perfect all the time. It's too little too late for you to try and come back to her life. Let’s face it Seng. You lost her.” - she says smiling -“And just so you know, that other person is me. “-She declares and leaves the stage, leaving Seng stunned while Seoul and her fans celebrating.
“Well, that’s going to take some work to contain.” - says P’beer smiling.
“Fuck it! I'm tired of having to hide. Having to pretend I don’t love that woman.”
“I know, but there was a more subtle way to make that statement.”-P’beer says seriously , but, deep down, she is proud of her girl.
“Honestly P’Beer. I couldn’t care less.”
“And what will N’Freen think of this?”
“I guess we’ll find out soon.” - she says pointing to the ringing phone.
“One of both. Or she'll scold you and be angry for a few hours. Or she'll scold you and tell me to take you to her apartment. In that case, you will probably wake up with some bruises and scratches that we will have to cover with makeup.” - she says with a little laugh while wiggling her brows.
“I prefer the second one. “ - she says laughing before answering the phone.
