Its your birthday, youâve never made a big deal about it tell you met him. You still remember his shocked face and loud âWHATâ when you told him you dont found your birthday a big deal, its just another day. Ever since then, he always celebrated your birthday in fun surprises and dinners. He made it so important and meaningful for you, and the big part of that is because you know heâll be there.
So your nothing short of despair when its past 5pm and he hasnt once messaged you. Itâd be another thing if he just didnt message happy birthday, you wouldve been okay with goodmoring.
You sigh putting your phone down, bitting your lip as your eyes water. It shouldnt be this serious, youâve never even cared about your birthday before, so why dose it hurt so bad now?
Mingyu
That god damn Mingyu.
He used to be such a soft spoken soul, aiding to your needs as you do with him, those first few years of your relationship. He confessed to you in your own backward, he put his effort and time into it. You can even smell the flowers that lead to Mingyu, see the lights that brightened his soft smile, that swift hair and tall figure standing nervously fiddling with the bouquet in his hands. And who could forget the blush that tainted his face and ears, tears threatening to jump out after you said âyes.â
Now, your even lucky if he stays with you a whole day. Its always this or that driving him away. When he left your sisters engagement dinner because a friend of his needed help moving in, or when he canceled a date because he forgot a âreally super duper important projectâ as he said. The nights he wouldnt call, the empty king bed. The second toothbrush that hasnt been moved in 2 weeks.
It drove you insane, but you still gave him the benefit of the doubt.
âMaybe heâs busyâ
âHes probably sleepingâ
âGod his phone mustâve diedâ
Your friends would yell at you over text, spamming you with the reality check you needed, but never could deposit. After pacing around the kitchen trying to ignore the cute cake you bought with a sad candle slowly sinking into it. You pick up your phone and call him.
RingâŚ
RingâŚ
RingâŚ
*click!*
Did he just hang up on you..?
No, he would have to be crazy.
You call again.
Same fucking thing, even quicker just 2 rings in.
You open his contact info, trying to see where his location would put him.
âNo Location Found.â You curse, what is he hiding? Your mind leads to the one scenario youâve been dreading, infidelity. The thought of him cheating makes you wanna throw up, but sadly its a most common event. Youâre just so done with everything, putting the cake away into the fridge and changing clothes. Its now 6:42pm and with the major headache you have, you simply decided to sleep it off. Hugging the build-a-bear Mingyu bought you a year back, it muffles your sobs, soaking in the tears.
Itâs cold and dark when your awaken by an extra weight adjusting itâs self onto the right side of the bed. You recognize it all to well. Mingyu pulls the covers over himself, giving you a small peck on the tip of your ear.
âYouâre homeâ you say, your drowsy and hurt voice clear.
âYeah- im sorry im so lateâ he whispers to you
âThere's cake in the fridgeâ
âCake? For whatâ
You sigh, âMy birthdayâ
You can hear his breathe hitch.
âFuck- Baby im so sorry. I didnt mean to forget. I was just so bus-.â
You sit up.
âBusy,? from what? So busy you couldnt even text? Because clearly it wouldnt have taken as much time as hanging up on me and turning off your location did. So if âbusyâ is some new slang for ignoring then that makes way more sense.â
âI didnt even know you called, i swear. My location should be on babe.. Iâ He mumbles on
âThen whos hanging up on me? Making sure i dont know where your at? Is she fun?â
Mingyuâs eyes widen
âWhat are you talking about?â
âHer, you know.. Is she attractive? What is it huh? Skinner than me? Or maybe blonder? Or is because you dont need to be responsible for her?
âBaby no, its none of that.â He grabs your shoulders.
âI love you, calm downâ
âHow can i?â You exclaim, jumping off the bed.
âYou missed my birthday! I waited for you like some stupid dog! I felt so stupid.â
âI dont understand, birthdays were never that big of a deal for youâ
âThey werent until you made it a problem! Now look at meâ you say, the tear stained face and puffy cheeks evident.
Mingyu gets up, walking over to you.
âI know ive been distant, let me make it up to youâ
âWhere were you tonight?â
He stays quiet for a moment, taking a deep breathe
âMy friend he uh⌠invited me to a clubâ he quietly says.
âOh. Okay.â
âOkay..?â
âMingyu, get outâ
âWhat?â His heart drops.
âGet out! Did the club music deafen you?? I want you goneâ You yell, tears streaming down your face as you push him out. Though you have little to no affect of moving his body, it makes it all the more depressing.
âOkayâŚOkay..â He quietly says, grabbing his phone off the dresser. Looking down at you with remorseful eyes. His heart aching at the messed up state your in. And its because of him, god.
You slam the door behind him, locking it. You sigh before faintly walking back to your bed.
And theres your build-a-bear, ready to be hugged and to soak all your tears again.
Atleast, that comforts you.
