Friendship that Cracks

By ten o'clock in the morning, Rebecca was out of the house and started picking up her best friends at home. He wants to surprise Cecilia by visiting her boutique to improve their relationship. His heart was excited to immediately practice Celine's words yesterday.

After much thought, he admitted that he was too quick to draw conclusions and did not give Cecilia a chance to explain. Didn't his friend say he didn't decide?

If he were to question Cecilia giving permission to visit, wouldn't he himself do the same? It could be that the sneaky guy did something to Cecilia that her best friend was forced to allow her, right? Didn't the same thing happen to him?

Rebecca is increasingly haunted by feelings of guilt. Shadow Cecilia spent yesterday feeling aside from her friends, making her want to arrive soon and hug her best friend. He wanted to change their togetherness to today. He had imagined how their friendship could be improved, and they could laugh together again.

Rebecca's car arrives at the mall. After the car was parked, the three girls immediately entered the building and headed for the Blouissant to meet Cecilia. The condition of the morning mall has begun to be crowded with visitors, although some shops are still not open.

As expected, Cecilia was a little surprised by the arrival of her three best friends in her boutique. "A-what is it that you all can come here? How come you didn't tell me first?" tanyakanya.

"Regular .... Rebecca is not her name if her idea is to use a plan .." Priscillia replied with a smile and pointed at her best friend.

"We want to surprise you. I'm a little unwell if I make you feel left out yesterday. I thought, how about we change the event together today? Do you have time? Just circling this mall can also be, " explained Rebecca.

Cecilia. His friends still think about it. "Yes! There are! Of course I'd love it if we could take a walk together!" he welcomed Rebecca's proposal immediately.

The four girls hugged and laughed together. Warmth flowed between them. The tension that had previously occurred, was like flying out of nowhere.

Unfortunately, that didn't last long. The voice of someone new coming entered the boutique and called out to Cecilia, destroying everything. "Fille qui bave ..." (meaning: Ileran girl)

Everyone there was shocked to see who had come, especially Rebecca. This is beyond his calculation. Never in his experience when Darrell was visiting this town, Darrell met him two days in a row. Their meetings always took place on Saturday, and on Sunday the man would return by himself to his city. But of course he realized, it can happen can not be separated from his attitude and treatment on Darrell who is not friendly.

And now ... after he said they had made a pact to meet yesterday, today the man came to visit Cecilia again? How close is the relationship between the two? Does this mean Cecilia warmly welcomed the arrival of this wolf man?

The awkward atmosphere encompassed every single person in the room. They all fell silent for a moment. Rebecca was still trying to control herself. All the questions that had been scattered in his mind, he immediately put away. Instead, he constantly twisted Celine's words yesterday in his mind. He still wants to trust his best friend.

"Sorry, I came suddenly. Did my arrival interfere with your show?" darrell asked after being near them.

"Yes! We just decided to take a walk together!" rebecca replied.

"Oh .... All right then. I came at the wrong time. Then ... I'll leave early, Cecile. Today I'm going back to my town. I thought we could spend some time together while waiting for my return. But apparently I was first. Enjoy time with your friends. Excuse me.." said Darrell, turning towards the exit.

"Tu-wait!! Wait a minute Darrell!" Cecilia chased after Darrell and held the man's arm.

For a moment, silence returned. Everything was tense waiting for an answer from Rebecca. Rebecca smiled at last. He laughed at his own stupidity.

"No. I'm the one who left. I thought you'd be lonely because you felt excluded yesterday. But it turned out to be just my guess and my delusion. It seems like you are fine without us. If you still want to continue the show, please! I go first, "he said. Then walk to the exit.

"I'm going after Rebecca, Pris! Sorry yeah, Cil .... Our show, we'll postpone it!" sharon said hurriedly, then left the boutique.

It was only Priscillia who was facing off against Cecilia-Darrell now. The three looked at each other in awkwardness. Until finally Priscillia who first opened her voice.

"Our ways seem to have to be canceled. Give Rebecca some time to learn to respect your decision well, Cil .... Believe ... he loves you and will be happy in your happiness. But for this time, he still needs time to accept the reality, " said Priscillia ended by hugging Cecilia. Hearing that, Cecilia could only nod weakly in Priscillia's arms.

After the hug came off, Priscillia said goodbye to Cecilia. "I go first yeah, Cil .... I hope I can still catch up to Sharon and Rebecca."

"Yes .... Be careful .." replied Cecilia in a weak tone.

Now replace Priscillia to Darrell. Although her face was adorned with a smile, the girl stared intently at the man in front of her. "Darrell .. titip Cecilia well .... Take good care of her and please ensure her happiness .." she said.

Darrell shuddered. Priscillia spoke to him with great authority. The aura of leadership that the girl exuded was not playful. Although the sentence was pronounced Priscillia with a flat tone and the choice of words is commonly used, but the emphasis seemed to contain demands.

Priscillia's words turned Darrell's ears like this, "Because you've made our friendship this way, take responsibility for at least making Cecilia happy!"

"I understand, " replied Darrell. Somehow he felt like a subordinate who was being held accountable by the Boss.

But that feeling he tried to hold and tried to cover it by being natural. However he did not want to lose his prestige with the girl before him. He was aware of his status as a director and the girl before him was still dealing with his script. Wasn't Priscillia younger than him? They're all the same age as Celine's cousin, aren't they?

"Thank you .." answered Priscillia still with her trademark smile, then she left the place.

After the girl was nowhere to be seen again, Darrell asked Cecilia, "You don't want to chase after your friends, Fille qui bave ?" (meaning: Girl withering)

"No. What must happen, will happen .." said Cecilia. After which, he forced himself to look at Darrell with a smile.

Darrell's stunned. I don't know what was the reason the girl in front of him forced herself to smile before him. Though he knew exactly, Cecilia's heart must still be upset and agitated due to the events that had just happened. But Darrell prefers to keep it quiet and not discuss it.
