While everyone else was having a good time, a young girl sat quietly on the side and happily observed the group of artists who were in the workshop with her.
She didn't know what to say because, apart from being the new girl in the group, she also couldn't fully understand what her colleague was saying.
That's why the girl just stayed and watched while her teammates rehearsed their lines. The girl often bent over the paper she was holding so that she could catch up with where her colleagues were in the scene.
From time to time, the girl is assisted by the assistant director and other colleagues so that she can understand what others are saying and what scene they are in.
For now, the girl has been left to the side to study her lines and scenes; she is sitting in the seat while focusing on the paper.
The room became even more noisy as if someone had arrived, but the girl ignored it and was still focused on the paper she was holding.
Teenage Becky was just sitting in the corner as she was new to the group, and in this world, after joining one of the most popular singing reality competition television series, Becky was offered the chance to join a new teenage drama series and was given the opportunity to be one of the supporting characters of this drama.
This was one of her mother's wishes to see her on national television, so she obliged because she was a good daughter and didn't want to disappoint her mother, even though it was difficult for her because she is an introvert.
Becky kept thinking if it was right to accept this; she was shrinking because, apart from introducing herself to the people, no one tried to talk to her, and she didn't know how to talk to them because she was not yet familiar with the language of this country.
But Becky believes that this is preferable to being with their neighbor Nop again; she doesn't know how to tell the young man that she truly only treats him as a friend and that she is only giving in to her mother's wish for Nop to accompany her wherever she goes for her safety because her mother trusts Nop because he is a friend of her mother.
Becky's mother does this not because she does not trust her daughter but because Becky is unfamiliar with the area because they recently returned from living in London until Becky reached the age of adolescence.
No matter what Becky does, she is unable to comprehend what she is reading since she is not very proficient in reading Thai words because she did not grow up in this country. Because she was embarrassed to disclose and criticize whoever gave her the paper for not having an English translation even though they knew the young woman was English, she claimed to be reading it.
The girl seemed to be in tears when they started rehearsing their scenes again because she was told to watch first, and that's what she did, sitting on the side while she watched the other actors.
Even if she wanted to join, the girl just watched and wondered when it would end because she wanted to go home and study her lessons.
Becky was lost in concentration when she felt someone sit next to her. The girl's nose was pricked by the perfume of new flowers in a garden, which cradled her and lightened her mood.
Despite the girl's eagerness to discover the source of that aroma, her hold on the paper became even more tense as a result of her anxiety over the fact that someone was now seated next to her.
Becky cautiously turned to face the offender, but everything stopped when she saw the wide smile of a woman with bangs, somewhat round cheeks, and stunning eyes.
You can see the girl with bangs' surprise when she sees Becky's face; this young girl is beautiful, her baby face is shocking, and her face is so innocent, the woman thought.
"Water for you; you're far too serious about it. I'm not sure what you want, so I brought two, and if you want a soda, I brought one as well." Said the woman, who now had a wide gummy smile that made Becky's heart race faster.
Becky accepted the bottled water unconsciously, shaking as she tried to open it but couldn't. The girl with bangs drank the water, and she shook even more.
Becky was watching the rise and fall of the lump in the throat of the woman with bangs while the woman was drinking water. When the woman noticed what she was doing, she took Becky's bottle of water and opened it for her.
"Thank you." Becky mumbled and looked away, then drank the water.
"By the way, my name is Freen; what is your name again? "The woman introduced herself, prompting Becky to turn back in her direction; the woman is smiling broadly and reaching out to shake Becky's hand.
"Becky," Becky said, accepting Freen's handshake.
They smiled at each other and stayed like that for a moment and Freen noticed the slightly crumpled scipt paper in Becky's hand resting on her lap.
''Ahm,..are you.. do you need me..I m-mean me.. heard that you were struggling with your lines on the scenes would you mind if I help you with that?'' Freen politely ask while struggling in speaking english she is not fluent in english but she is trying her best to communicate with Becky.
Becky was trying hard not to laugh at Freen's struggle, but due to Freen's cuteness, she couldn't help but smile with her teeth showing, which caused Freen's to turn red like a tomato.
Freen's POV
As she dances, I cannot take my eyes off of her. My attention was focused on her. Every move she makes is so graceful and mesmerizing. I can't help but feel lucky to be able to witness her beauty in this moment; it was like she was doing it for me and for me only. The way she moves her body is like poetry in motion, and I am completely entranced by her. Watching her dance is like watching a work of art come to life before my very eyes. When did I even start looking at her from this perspective?
As her hips sway to the beat while she looks in my direction, I am captivated by her beauty as it radiates all over this room. I can see her, and everything else disappears. Her eyes, her nose, her slightly hanging open lips and her hair all seem to be in harmony. She is perfect. I feel a rush of emotions as I realize that I have never seen anyone quite like her before. It's as if time has stopped, and all that matters is this moment and the girl in front of me.
And when did I become poetic? It seemed like I was being influenced by this woman's being madly in love with another woman in my nightmares. I never thought I had it in me, but perhaps her passion and intensity were contagious. Or maybe my subconscious was trying to process and make sense of the emotions she was experiencing.
And as I watched the guy get closer to her, I realized I couldn't stop myself and punched the guy before he even landed his hands on Becky's. My adrenaline was pumping, and I knew I had to protect her at all costs, even if it meant getting into a fight. As the guy stumbled back, I stood between him and Becky, ready to defend her if necessary.
''Freen!" Jim shouted.
''Oh my god, Freen, what happened ?'' Kade said.
The man was about to stand and was about to get near me, but "don't even think about it?'' Said Tee, who is now in front of me I didn't notice how quick she is to get near us.
''I can't believe you , you didn't realize you were spiked," I whispered in Becky's ear as she clung her arms around my neck, still dancing.
"Come on, Freen, dance with me," she said.
''No. "You are coming with me; I am taking you to your room." I said annoyed and drag her with me. She resisted at first, but eventually gave in and allowed me to lead her out of this bar. As we walked, I couldn't help but feel a sense of responsibility for her safety.
''Uhmm," I moaned as she kissed me the moment I was able to get us into her room. She pushed me onto the bed,
''Freen,urgh. I miss your scent .'' She said before she kissed my neck. Oh god, why did we end up making out in her room again? '
'Urmh '' She bit my lips and immediately put her tongue on my mouth. I can't believe I am doing this with her. I haven't done such a thing with Blew, but with her, it was like it naturally flowed in me and between us.
''No.no.no Becky you are drunk.'' I stopped her. This is wrong; I had to stop her; she is drunk, and there is a possibility that she is drugged. I gently pushed her away and helped her sit up. "Let's get you some water and make sure you're okay," I said, trying to keep my voice calm. "We can talk about this when you're feeling better."
I got some bottled water from the refrigerator in this room, opened it, and was about to go back to her when I felt my whole body tremble. As she snaked her arms around me, she put light kisses on my back and neck that made my knees weak.
''Shit'' I cursed, as I am feeling the urge to respond to her, but I have to stop myself; I cannot take advantage of her.
When she made me turn around to face her, I caught a glimpse of her desire-filled face as she fixed her gaze on me.
Water spilled out of the water bottle as I tightened my hold on it, soaking both of us.
I was startled out of the moment and forced to quickly pull myself away from her.
Since I am the soberer of the two, I must exercise self-control.
I took a deep breath and reminded myself that the last thing I wanted to do was to endanger our friendship or put her in an awkward situation.
I made the decision to step back and give myself some room to collect my thoughts.
When I look into Becky's eyes, she really is not in her mind. I can see that she is so sleepy, but her eyes are dilated, so I am positive that she is really drugged.
I helped her sit on the bed by supporting her shoulders. We were both drenched from the water bottle that had been spilt, so I went and got her some comfy clothing to change into. She simply shook her head when I inquired if she had taken anything. I was aware that until the medicines wore off, I had to be with her. Before assisting her with changing her clothes once more, I helped her clean herself up. She was so alluring that it took all of my willpower to keep myself away from her body, but I'm grateful that she has stopped touching me inappropriately. It is a huge relief because I would never be able to resist it, especially in her current condition.
I went to the bathroom to change, and when I got inside the bathroom, I immediately washed my face and looked in the mirror-oh god I look awful.
