Chapter Forty-Six: Friendship or Love?

Clark, Van, and Bianca are now at a certain beach.
The three of them are walking by the seashore, just admiring the beautiful afternoon scenery...
"Why are you so quiet, Bianca? Are you still thinking what happened at the reunion?" Clark suddenly asks Bianca.
"Yeah, not because I'm scared, but I'm actually thanking my lucky stars because I have you two as my bestfriends. You're always there to support me and protect me." Bianca answered, in a serious manner.
Clark and Van stares at Bianca, who's looking at the sunset. It was as if something is tugging their hearts. The sun's reflection gives her an amazing glow which made her really pretty.
Bianca's brown eyes are glowing against the afternoon sun.  gave a strange glow to her whole face.
"Hey, why are you both staring at me like that? Is there something weird on my face?" Bianca suddenly bombarded Clark and Van with questions.
Clark and Van shook their heads, as they were trying to wake up from a trance...
============================
Paolo, Serena, Dave, Via, Nigel and Brianna were all eating and drinking at the cottage. 
"It's so nice to look at our children, being  friends with each other..." Paolo suddenly stated, while looking at Clark, Van and Bianca who are walking by the seashore.
Brianna saw Bianca happily chatting with Clark and Van.
Brianna thought that her daughter is at the right age to fall inlove, but the question is, who is she inlove with? Is it Clark, who is Paolo and Serena's son? Or is it Van, which is Dave and Via's son?
Or maybe Via is inlove with someone else who's not from Walnut Creek?
Well, she will give her daughter freedom to choose who is the man for her. And as a mother, all she can do is to give her a piece of advice, ONLY if she asks her...
=============================
"WHAT do you think about Clark and Van, dear?" Brianna asked her daughter, out of the blue.
Brianna choked on her milkshake when she heard that question from her mother. She wasn't expecting that from her.
"What's with the question, Mom?" she curiously asked her mother, once she regains her composure.
"Well, I just had a thought while I was watching you, Clark and Van walking by the seashore. The three of you seems to be really comfortable with each other. And I liked what I see." Brianna openly expressed her opinions.
"Mom, it doesn't mean anything. We're friends, until we're old and gray." Bianca casually enunciated.
"I understand that, but you didn't answer my question, dear. What do you think of Clark and Van?" Brianna tries to ask Bianca again.
"There's nothing going on with the three of us." her daughter confidently answers.
"Okay, if that's what you say..." Brianna finally gives up.
But deep inside, she's secretly rooting for her daughter to find her first love... 
==============================
Few days have passed.
"Happy Birthday, Clark!" Bianca greeted Clark on his birthday. She gave him a medium-sized envelope as a birthday gift for him.
"This is scaring me, Bianca. What is this?" Clark curiously asks while looking at the envelope.
"You'll know when you open it." Bianca smilingly responded.
Clark nervously unfolded the envelope to see what was inside...
He saw some small pieces of paper and there was something written in those.
"Free hugs, say yes to everything and free lunch at our favorite pizza house... Wait, what do these mean?" Clark thoughtfully frowned.
"That's my birthday gift coupon for you. If you're having a bad day and you want me to hug you, you'll get free hugs from me. If you don't have any money, I'll give you treat you at our favorite pizza house. And last but not the least, if you want me to do something for you, just use the "say yes to everything" coupon." Bianca explains the context of her unique gift.
Clark started grinning from ear to ear when one idea suddenly enters his mind.
 when an idea suddenly entered his mind. 
"Can I use it now?" he excitedly asked, as he can't wait to use one of the coupon.
"Sure, go ahead. What coupon will you use today? Your wish is my command!" Bianca gamely answers.
"I'm going to use "say yes to everything." You promised me that you will do anything, right?" Clark's eyes sparkled because of excitement.
"Yes. But what are you planning to do?" Bianca suddenly feels worried.
"Just wait and you'll find out later. By the way, thank you for your birthday gift. This is the best!" Clark happily enunciated.
Then, without a warning, Clark tightly hugs Bianca. Then afterwards, he went at the living room to talk to his friends who were invited for his birthday party.
Meanwhile, Van has been secretly watching Clark and Bianca, while hiding at side of the wall. He has been watching the two for quite a while now. He saw Bianca giving Clark a special gift. He also saw how Clark gave Bianca a big, bear hug... 
 He can't help himself but to feel jealous by looking at them. He can't deny the fact that Clark and Bianca looks so good together. He can really feel that there's something special about them. He can't really explain it, but there's really something about them...
"You're finally starting to get jealous, Van." he mockingly said to himself.
Before Van could react, Bianca finally saw him. 
"Aren't you jealous, Van?" the sudden persecution of his mind. 
"Van! What are you doing there?" Bianca curiously asks him.
"Huh? Oh, I was just about to go to the fridge to get a drink. I'm quite thirsty." Van tries to sound casual.
"Oh, okay. I'm actually thirsty as well. Let's drink some cola!" Bianca suggested.
"Sure thing." Van nodded in approval.
After a few moments, Van and Bianca are having a chat while drinking their favorite brand of cola.
"You're birthday is coming up next, Van. What gift do you want for your birthday?" Bianca started asking.
