The hardest part about dating your bestfriend is that when you break up, you lose your bestfriend too.
************************************************************************
Do you want me to tell you something really subversive? Love is everythi...
AN: I won't make promises anymore because I might not be able to do it—letting you know that there will be very SLOW updates. I love this story, but unfortunately, I just can't give it time right now due to PERSONAL reasons.

"I can't tell him, S. He can't know." Maymay whispers. She is terrified that Edward will find out about her precious secret. She knows that he has the right to know, but the consequences are just too scary.
"Then, there's no point for both of you starting anew Maymay." she answers before finally shutting her bedroom door, and leaving a confused friendbehind.
She pulls out her phone and does the one thing that she knows can cheer her up at any situation--she dials her grandparents' phone number.
"Hello la.."

"Hello Alysa.." he begins. "Yes, I'm good. I was with Maymay earlier. Yes, the same Maymay.. the one and only... Sorry for how I acted earlier, I was having a confrontation with Sammie... Yes. She still hates me.. Got to say, can't blame the girl though. Maymay really went through hell.. No Alysa, wasn't just your fault... it was ours... No, don't cry.. you wouldn't want Louie to hear you crying.. How is my baby boy by the way?"

That night, Maymay just cried on the phone while she was listening to the most beautiful and innocent sound in the world--her baby's snores. Edward left Maymay pregnant—neither of them had any idea that she was carrying the fruit of their countless and careless love making.
"Edward, what if I become pregnant? We forgot protection once again." Maymay whispers as she rests her head on his bare chest.
"So?" he asks. "We will get married anyway. This way, we can just start a family earlier."
She continues to draw circles on his naked skin, "I know, but don't you want to get married first?" she asks.
"Baby, it doesn't matter to me if we have a baby first or not—no matter what happens, I plan to marry you. Besides, if we have a child already, then we won't have to worry about who will be the flower girl or the ring bearer, right?" he explains.
Now, Maymay is busy writing non-sense words on Edward's tummy, as she would randomly trace her finger from his left hip to the right. Edward then towers over her.
"And besides, how can I resist you huh? With you just laying beside me like this, I can't help but take you all over again." he uttered before planting his lips on hers, and getting lost in the moment once again.
Maymay continues to cry as she reminisced her past—when times were easier, simpler, and happier with her love.
"Should I tell him? I mean, I know I should.. but when? This would hurt him..but damn it, I got hurt too, didn't I?" she groans frustratingly. "I still love him.. my heart tells me so.. my body tells me so.. but all these secrets that I kept from him.. he would hate me.. completely." she sobs. "S was wrong, I have no right to be angry at Edward. Yes, he hurt me and I got depressed because of that, but I kept our child from him. Our dear Ella Jane.. Will I have the guts to tell him? Should I?" she wonders.
