"I'm sorry I can't be there for your Birthday our flight back was delayed" I said through the phone.

"No, it's alright we can just celebrate tommorow when you return." He answered.

"I'll make it up to you tomorrow, don't worry." I said as I tried to hold my smile.

"I know you will, the party is gonna start. I love you" he said hurriedly. The loud music can be heard at the background.
"I love you too." I answered back in a rather loud voice. And then the line went off.

"Angel do you think he will be surprised?" I asked my best friend and also my boyfriend's cousin.

"Of course he will, you flew over half the world just to make it in time" I smiled as she answered.

"I hope he does" I said grinning holding the gift I made for him. I can't wait to see his surprise face when he see me today.

As we walked through the reception of the hotel, we walked through the room were his party is being held. The loud music and people screaming can already be heard outside. As we went inside I was the who got surprise, Xander was kneeling in front of Tiffany holding a velvet box with a ring on it.

"Tiffany I love you all through out this year's, we've been through many things and know we're old enough I want you to stay at my side grow old together" Xander said in the stage.

I can hear the guests screams, shouting Yes. I can't help as tears run through my face, my chest tightens as my breathing becomes rigid. I thought he would change, that he can stay faithful until we die of old age, but I was wrong it was merely a facade to hurt and break me. I saw Angel's anger through her eyes as she tries to comfort me. "It's alright, he will pay for his impudence tih" she said.

"Yes, I do Xander" that btch that once was I treated as a friend answered while smiling like crazy. Xander put the ring through her fingers and smiled happily. Hugging her tightly like she was the most precious thing he had in the world.

"Do anyone from the guest want to give a message for our happy couple" the MC said with a big smile.

I wiped my tears standing straight I raised my hands "I have something" I shouted through the noise. The MC saw me and gestured to come, as Xander and Tuffany saw me walking I can see the shocked they're trying to hide through their eyes.

I walked confidently up to the stage, grabbing the mice "First of all I would like to congratulate my friends Xander and Tiffany." I started smiling like nothing happened stressing the word friend.
As I look at his eyes I can see shock, confusion, anger and maybe I saw sorrow but who knows right?! The I look at Tiffany different swarm of emotions can be see through her eyes, but she kept her smile like the little actress she is.

"I hope you two would stay together happily, and don't forget to invite me to your wedding" I added rather sarcastically, with a smile.

"Thank you, Jean" he said forcing a smile. "Of course why wouldn't you be their at our wedding, your one of my closest friend tih" Tiffany added. I just smiled at her saying my thanks.

"Oh yeah before I forget, here's my gift for you" I said smiling as I give him his gift. As he came closer to get his gift, I whispered "I'm a month pregnant and your the father."

As he back away, traces of joy and shock fill his face. I didn't wait any longer as I bid thanks I left the stage. Angel was waiting below the stage, "Let's go tih" I said slowly trying to fight back the tears that might fall. I can't let them show any sign of weakness, I said to myself.

As we got of the reception hall, away from Xander and the crowd, the tears that I was trying to hold back were now rushing down through my face. As we were waiting for Kuya John outside of the hotel we can see Xander .

"Jean wait" Xander shouted running towards us.

But Angel didn't give him the time nor pleasure talking to me. As soon she saw Kuya John she opened the door and pushed me inside the car. Through the window I can see that Xander caught up and the both of them were talking but I'm too hurt to care about what excuses he'll say.

"Xander I trusted you to protect my Best friend and to love him, I'm so disappointed in you" Angel said anger were clearly heard in her voice.

"Im sorry cuz, I really am, I didn't meant for this to happen." He answered guilty.

"Your sorry won't do, Xander and you know it. Knowing Jean, this is the last time you will be seeing him and your unborn child. I hope you're happy making him cry cause you will never see them again" she said coldly.

I can see tears trying to fall in Xanders eyes, I rolled the window down and said. "Happy Birthday Xander I hope you will be happy now with Tiffany." Angel went inside the passenger seat, seeing that I was done with my last farewell she signaled Kuya John to start the car; and he started to drive away the hotel.

As I stared back I saw his figure still there standing lifelessly. I sat straight and rub my belly. "Don't worry little one, we can make through this even without your daddy." I said to my baby, but mostly to myself.

"I know you can, you're a strong person Jean" Angel said.
