Keith spotted Liliana too. No one knew how long he had been there when he saw her step out of a car and freeze in place.Neither of them spoke. Liliana felt awkward. They were boyfriend and girlfriend, but it did not feel like enough.She knew Keith liked her a lot, and she had said yes to dating him. However, deep down, Liliana knew she was not being the girlfriend he deserved. Still, Keith was always so understanding.Just moments ago, she was in another guy's car, thinking about Sean.Seeing Keith just standing there and knowing the car was still behind her made Liliana feel like she was doing something wrong. She was torn about Sean but could not deny she liked how Keith treated her.Feeling more embarrassed than ever, Liliana gripped her bag, bit her lip, and managed a small smile. "Keith, what brings you here?"Keith had seen the car too. It had not left. As her boyfriend, he had a lot of questions, but he did not ask any of them. He just nodded. "I tried calling you, but y

Liliana did not take any medicine. She just sipped some warm water and went back to bed.Her sleep was restless, filled with dreams of her childhood, the bullies, the schoolyard taunts, and Sean...Liliana could not help thinking she was a mess. Sean had been so clear about his feelings, yet she kept trying to get close to him. Was she really that pathetic? She was even dreaming about him.She slept the whole day, waking and sleeping in fits and starts. If Keith had not kept trying to call her, eventually coming over to check on her, Liliana might have been in real trouble. She would have been sick and alone in her apartment, with no one the wiser.Ever since Keith got home last night, he could not stop worrying. He had not heard from Liliana all day, and she had not answered any of his many phone calls. Finally, he decided to go see her himself.He rang the doorbell over and over, and just when he thought Liliana might not be home, she slowly got up from her bed and opened the do

"Liliana, I don't believe it. What really happened? Can you tell me?" Keith had just reached out to try to grab Liliana's hand, but she pulled away.His hand hung stiffly in the air, and his expression turned awkward. He looked at Liliana, saw how pale she was, and felt a pang of sympathy."Liliana, you're still sick. Let's not talk about this right now, okay? We can talk when you're better."Keith figured Liliana was just overwhelmed lately. He had not been around much, and when people got sick, they were more fragile, more prone to overthinking, and falling into a negative headspace.What he did not know was that Liliana was completely lucid. She had thought everything through.She was certain now that she did not love Keith. Her heart belonged to someone else. That alone was already unfair to Keith, but now, with her pregnancy, she felt even more undeserving of him. She truly felt she had wronged him.Yet Keith's eyes that were staring back at her made her uneasy. For the firs

Liliana's face burned with shame as she lay slumped on the floor, her entire body weak and trembling.The moment she met Keith's eyes, she felt utterly humiliated. Of course… Of course, he had to see her like this."I'm pregnant, Keith."Keith's eyes widened sharply. Even though the possibility had already crossed his mind moments earlier, hearing it confirmed from Liliana's own lips still stunned him.He stood there frozen, shocked and speechless, unsure how to react or even begin to express the turmoil flooding his heart."The child isn't yours."Since there was no hiding it now, Liliana figured she might as well be direct. She knew this truth would deal Keith a heavy blow, but she truly did not want to keep lying to him.Keith staggered two steps back, his lips opening as if to speak—but no sound came out. Not a word, not a syllable.Liliana looked at him, and the silence between them stretched, feeling like an eternity. Then she spoke again. "You and I… we never even kissed

Liliana was stunned by Keith's words. Her hands trembled slightly at her sides before she finally reached out and held Keith's arm. "Keith, you're still young. I'm not worth it. I really don't deserve you.""Liliana, I know whether you're worth it or not. That's not for you to decide. Be good, Liliana. I'll go with you to the hospital in a bit. We'll get you checked out," Keith said gently, patting her back to comfort her. "Don't be scared.""But what if I really am…" She was terrified. She had no idea what she should do.Even though she had been sick these past few days, she had been thinking a lot about her relationship with Keith, about herself, and about the baby."I already told you, no matter what decision you make, I'll be on your side.""What if I want to keep the baby?" Liliana asked.Keith froze for a moment, then held her tighter. "Then we'll keep it. If that's what you decide, we'll get married—right away. I'll take care of you, and I'll be good to you and the baby fo
