You've changed

6 months.

That's how long you've gone without feeling his touch, hearing I love you , seeing him for a full day, or sleeping beside him. Michael was a famous entertainer, so of course you knew how busy and hectic his schedule would be; but even on his off days there was no love, no warmth, nor reassurance.

Rubbing your large belly, you grab your book bag and sling it over your shoulder, your cup of tea, phone in one hand and book in the other. You step outside in the chilly weather, chills instantly running up and down your body. Quickly, you make your way to the duck pond where you and Michael first met. Thankfully, you find a empty bench and take a seat.

Surprisingly, you received a call from yesterday night, which turned out to be from Michael. He asked you to meet him at the duck park so you can both talk about something important. The call was quick and simple, which made your chest hurt. Something has definitely changed. Despite feeling hurt, you went to sleep feeling a small sense of relief after hearing his soothing voice.

You hear a soft voice call your name from behind you making you turn around. You instantly smile when you see Michael and stand up to hug him but your abruptly stop when a female steps from behind him.

A beautiful rock graced her wedding ring finger, accompanied by a tiny baby bump. Your knees buckle at the sight, heart racing a million miles.

"M-Michael?"

Michael lets her hand go and takes a step towards you, causing you to take one backwards.

"Y/n."

You shake your head, salty tears streaming down your face,"Michael, w-what's going on?!"

Michael continues to walk towards you trying to touch you, but take steps back until you hit the back of the light post next to the bench.

"Stop, don't come any closer to me."

Michael stops in his tracks and sighs, his head hanging in shame.

"I've been meaning to tell you this...I've been seeing someone behind your back, and I'm marrying her...Next week."

Your feet plant into the ground, your body froze as you took in all the information. You look down at the ground, your vision blurred as you tried to find the words to say. You feel a hand touch your shoulder and you aggressively push it away, your body burning in anger.

"You changed...I trusted you, Michael. I gave you everything, I gave you me! Do you know how precious that is?! I-I did everything for you, and this is your thank you?"

Pausing, she lets out a shaky sigh, calming herself down,"It's fine, Michael. Congrats on your new family, it seems as though the one you already started wasn't good enough for you."

With trembling fingers, you weakly remove the promise ring from your finger and shove it into his hand, turning on your heels and walking away.

With a stoic face, Michael lets you walk away, not daring to stop you or try to make things better. He feels an arm wrap around his waist and he looks down, smiling at his fiancé, Jeena.

"Come on lets go."
