Rachel was an orphan. She lived at my house, my parents were her foster parents.
After much persuasion from Rachel, Benji decided to stay for the night.
"I just pray hard that I can control the beast in me tonight," he gave me a wink.
"If that's the case, let's be safe. You'll sleep in the hall!" Rachel teased.
"No, I want to hug Lynn to sleep."
I looked away and it happened to be the direction where Dexter was. He nodded at me, ushering me towards him. My feet moved to where he was.
He bowed to where my ear was and said, softly enough for me to hear, "Watch your boy closely. She doesn't seem to get over him yet..."
"I don't get you," and I walked away.
I looked at Rachel, she was smiling widely to Benji who returned the smile.
You're thinking too much, Lynn.
Benji hugged me to sleep night. I had no idea if it was because of the comfortable warmth of his body, or just me feeling burnt out from the activities, I fell asleep once I closed my eyes.
Maybe I was too worried about Rachel and Benji, I dreamt of them making love. My eyes shot opened. To my horror, Benji was no longer beside me. I checked his mobile phone and saw a text from Rachel: Meet me at e void deck, will b waiting 4 u.
NO! I cried to myself. The message was sent fifteen minutes earlier. It can't be...? Can it?
I took my jacket and fled down the stairs. Fifteen metres before me stood Rachel and Benji. I hid behind the pillar nearest to me, and still made sure I could hear them speak.
"You're here. I know you'd come," Rachel said in a girlish tone I've never heard before.
"Yes? Anything to tell me? Why choose here? Why this time? I need my sle..."
She held onto the shirt above his chest, tiptoed, and kissed him. She kissed him. At the lips. She kissed him.
I fell onto the floor. I could not bear to see what's next. Part of me wanted to run away and cry, yet another part of me wanted to stay on and see what Benji would do.
Lord, I know he's faithful.
"Damn, I am not going to do this. But..."
He kissed her back, long and hard.
