"Baby, if we have children how many do you want?"

I asked Axel, my boyfriend.

We've been in a relationship for four years and I can say that it's not easy for us to be on.

Many trials came to us, but we still managed it. Our relationship is not perfect, everything is not perfect, right?

In four years, I can say that the longer it goes on, the more I love him.

He's gentleman, sweet and caring. His handsomeness is just a bonus. He's so perfect and I'm so lucky to have him in my life.

A lot of people say that, we're so perfect. And I'm happy because there are many people who support our relationship.

"Hmm, how many?"

"Yes, baby." I said.

"I want three. Two baby boys and one baby girl." he answered.

I smiled because of his answer to me. I also want to have three children. It doesn't matter to me what their gender is as long as that they are normal and healthy.

"Why did you ask baby?" he asked.

"Ahh, nothing. I just wanna know."

He just nodded in response and kissed me on the forehead.

"Don't worry baby, you are the only one I want to be the mother of our children." he said.

I smiled again, he never failed to make my heart flutter.

I look at his eyes and say, "I love you."

And he respond, "I love you too, baby."

Our 5th anniversary is approaching and I notice that Axel is becoming elusive to me.

So, I planned to make a surprise dinner for us.

It's been a long time since we ate together. He always tells me that, he is busy and as a girlfriend I always understand him.

I dialed his number and I called him. After three rings he answered the phone.

"Hello, baby. What time are you coming home later? Are you going to eat here?" I asked.

"Ugh~ sh-shit!" he hissed. I was surprised and wondered why he was panting. Is he not in his office?

"Baby, why are you short of breath? Are you running?"

"N-no b-baby a~ahh, o-yes I'll eat there see you later bye." he stammered and immediately hung up.

I stared at the screen of my cellphone and a look of puzzled yet surprised appeared on my face. Why do I feel that something is wrong? But instead of thinking negative thoughts, I just focused my mind to what I will prepare for later.

It's already 9:30pm, and until now Axel still isn't there. I've been waiting for him to come home for a while now, but he hasn't come yet.

An hour and a half later, Axel's shadow was still nowhere to be seen in the entire household. I'm worried because something bad might have happened and at the same time he might have worked overtime again. But I always know that when he's on overtime, he informs me right away that it will take him a long time to get home.

But now, something is different. Something seems off, so I decided to call him.

I called him multiple times until...

"H-Hello?"

I was stunned. Why does he have my boyfriend's phone?

"Hello, Jean. Why do you have Axel's phone? Where is he? It's already late, is he going to work overtime again?" I asked Axel's secretary one after another. Yes, she is the secretary.

I can say that Jean is beautiful. She's kind and humble. You can always see her smiling as if she never gets into trouble. She is working for Axel for almost two years.

"I'm so s-sorry ma'am, S-sir can't come home today." she answered.

Why does she stutter? Why didn't Axel tell me that he wouldn't be able to go home? I made an effort for our dinner today.

I was depressed at what he said and hung up without hesitation. I sat down and suddenly thought of something.

Can I just bring it to his office? I'm just going to see him. I said in my mind.

I put the food away and put it in empty plastic food containers to take it to Axel's office. I picked up the car keys, locked the apartment and go to parking lot immediately and got into the car and drove.

After an hour I arrived at the company run by his family and went straight to Axel's office bringing the foods that I prepared for us to eat together.

He is the CEO of their company and I can say that he is good at running a business. Even before Axel and I met, he was already starting to run his parent's business.

I didn't knock anymore and immediately opened the door. I know, it's kind of rude not to knock but I wanted to surprise him while he was on overtime.

And hell, I am the one who's surprised of what I am witnessing right now.

Axel is having s** with his secretary!

My both hands that are carrying foods that I made for Axel was released by the shock and promptly covered my mouth and I burst into tears.

Because of the noise that I created, they instantly turned to me. And they're both surprised.

My plan is to surprise Axel, but they're the ones who surprised me! The f*ck?!

I cleared my throat to help myself to speak properly. "That's the reason why you can't go home or even give me an update because you're having s** with your secretary." I said calmly. I barely managed to say those words to them because I can't believe that they will betray me.

At once they put on their clothes which was scattered in the floor and Axel quickly approached me. He was about to touch me when,

"Don't. Touch. Me." I said firmly.

"Baby, I'm sorry. I didn't mean to." he's sorry.

"S-sorry?!" I shouted. "You didn't mean to?! Who are you fooling Axel?! And that's the girl you've been playing with?!" I pointed at Jean who was starting to cry.

B**ch what?! Is she trying to be the victim?! Wow! What a best f***ing actress!!! I should reward her a crunchy slap!

I cried because I couldn't believe that Axel could fool, cheat, betray me like this. For four years that we have been together and just right now this is happening to us?!

I always thought that he was faithful and loyal to me but I was so f***ing wrong.

"S-sorry, Kelly." Axel apologized and started crying too.

"Don't you dare to tell me that, you accidentally put your p**is in Jean! Don't fool me anymore! You're too late to admit it!" I shouted while tears falling down from my eyes.

Jean came to me and knelt down. "I'm so sorry Kelly, I didn't mean to fall for Axel. I love him and also I'm three weeks pregnant and Axel knows about it." she told me while crying.

I cried even more because of what I just found out. I know I can't fight my love for Axel anymore. I already lose, my opponent is pregnant and I don't want the child to grow up without a complete family.

I wiped my tears and looked at Axel who was now bent down crying so hard.

I look at the ceiling trying to stop my tears from falling while saying, "I know this is the right thing to do, I really really love you Axel but this is what you did to me. All I want is you being loyal and faithful to me. But you didn't, you cheated and the worst is you and Your secretary was cheating on me and also that's the reason why you're becoming elusive to me because you're sleeping with another woman." I continued to cry.

"S-sorry, baby." that's all Axel told me.

"I'm letting you go Axel, please be a good father to your child. Congratulations."

After that I left and went home crying.

------

I'm here now at the birthday party of Axel's sons birthday.

Yes, sons. He had triplets and they are now six years old. I'm so glad that despite what happened to us we became good friends.

He is married to Jean and I can say that they are happy as a couple and parents for their children.

"Okay, boys! Blow up your candles! Don't forget to make a wish!" Axel told his children excitedly.

The triplets nodded and made a wish before blowing out the candle.

People applauded and I was one of them. I'm also the godmother of their child, so I should be at the party right now. The triplets are so close to me, that's why every time I visit to see them, they will instantly hug and kiss me on the cheeks.

"What did you wish, boys?" Axel asked.

The kids looked at me and smiled widely. "We wish for Aunt Kelly's happiness."

I smiled and approached the triplets with a tight hug. I didn't realize that I was in tears.

"Thank you babies." I thanked them while silently crying.

Even though Axel and I met and fate separated us, I don't regret letting go of the person I loved with all my heart. I realized that me letting go of him is the best decision I made, because there are now three happy children loved by their parents.

Even though Axel and Jean cheated on me, even though I was the victim, I never regret that I was the one who put up with them.

I can still remember when I asked how many kids he wanted and Axel wished to have three children which is really came true, it's just that it wasn't from me like he promised but from another woman, his secretary.
