It's been a year since the day Ryan left the country.
Mika and Ezekiel been dating now for 8 months, and you could tell they're happy.
" Happy 34th birthday Zeke" Mika said as she give Ezekiel a big warm hug.
Ezekiel smiled," Thank you"
Mika playfully touched Ezekiel's fingers.
" Zeke?"
Ezekiel was reading a News paper," Yes?"
" How do you want to celebrate your birthday?"
" Hmm..."
EZEKIEL'S POV
" How do you want to celebrate your birthday?"
I thought for a second.
I glance her, her eyes are sparkling as if she's really anticipating my answer.
I smiled and gently pinched her cheeks," As long as I'm with you, I'm more than happy"
She smiled," Thank you for loving me"
" Of course, I will always love you"
Later that night, I already went back home. Sigh.
I know that she's pretending to be happy for 8 months now, I know I'm selfish, But, I need to stop this-
It's hard, but I have to.
END OF POV
The Next day.
