"Don't worry about it, Gray." I sighed.

"No when I come back, I'm throwing you a huge party." He exclaimed.

"Parties are definitely not my thing but thanks for the red wine. You know I'm a sucker for it." The bottle was almost half empty and I couldn't stop drinking. It's my birthday, i should spoil myself. Especially even my kids are sleeping then it's okay.

"Pleasure Queen. Let me get going...kisses."

"Bye." I slumped myself on the couch with now drinking straight from the bottle. Suddenly someone was at the door, just great ! it's fucking eleven pm shesh can't i get some peace.

In my bootyshorts and a big t-shirt, i marched up to the door. It was getting kind of my blurry but whatever. Opening the door it was Angelo in his glory, looking handsome in his black armani suit. Like why did he seemed to get handsome each and every fucking day. His chin with tiny stubble, it made him really handsome.

"I know I'm not the person you want to see right now but Happy Birthday." He gave me a cheeky smile and somehow I saw myself smiling.

At the devil, my conscience rang.

"Thanks, now you may go home." I said rudely probably the alcohol giving me a boost of confidence. He's eyes swept off from my legs to my eyes.

"I know you want to get rid of me so fast, is your boyfriend there ?" He smirked and I felt like smacking him for everytime he has ever broke my heart.

"No my 'boyfriend' is not here." I made emphasis on the word boyfriend. Suddenly from the back, he brought out a black box, it looked so extravagant and on top it was written Happy Birthday Raina in bold italics.

"I hope you like it." He said not sure of what to say. I opened the door wider so he could come in, i could hear his footsteps following right behind until I sat on the couch. Opening it, my heart shuddered probably the most beautiful necklace I had ever seen. It had a small crown with tiny diamonds shaping it's structure. No doubt this must have cost a fortune.

"Thanks but I can't take this, i closed the box and handed it back to him.

"Why ?" He questioned.
