Happy Birthday, He Cheated
Just muttered, "I like it."
He didn't notice.
Or maybe he was just too wiped from playing house with Sabrina.
"You like it, that's all that matters. I'm gonna shower," he said.
He disappeared into the bathroom.
By the time he came out, I was already in bed, facing the wall.
Silent.
He wrapped his arms around me.
Same bed, totally different worlds.

Then came my birthday.
Derrick threw his usual party—surprises, cake, the works. Picture-perfect.
