Kelly's POV
Was it a blessing to marry your best friend?
I wasn't very sure what Pierce thought, but marrying him was a dream come true for me. And now, what was even more exciting was that we were about to welcome our first child.
"It's a good thing you're cautious. You could've lost your baby, Miss Monroe," the GYN told me seriously as she could see the shock in my eyes.
I subconsciously touched my belly, still unable to believe a baby was lying there. Had I heard it right? I was pregnant? I was pregnant with a baby for Pierce—my best friend and my first crush!
On the way out of the hospital, I couldn't wait to tell Pierce about our baby. I wondered what his reaction would be. Would he scream in happiness? Would he kiss me? God! I couldn't contain my happiness.
I cupped my flushed face as I fantasized, but the moment I felt the cold of the simple ring on my finger, my wildly beating heart calmed down. I almost forgot that Pierce wasn't the type to be keen on having children, especially since our marriage was arranged by his family.
Pierce was a complete gentleman, both as a friend and a husband. Every time we had sex, he was considerate yet cautious, saying there was no need to add extra shackles when we weren't ready.
This baby, in a way, was out of the plan.
My mind was becoming restless as I sat in my car. Would this be good news for him? What if Pierce still wasn't ready for a baby?
"Ma'am, is everything okay? Do you need to call the boss?" my private driver, Luke, asked worriedly as he noticed my frown. Luke was reliable, like family, but if I chose to share, I still wanted Pierce to be the first to know this news. He was my baby's father.
"No," I shook my head, giving Luke a reassuring smile. "He's on a flight. I'll talk to him later myself." I wanted to sense his answer directly from his raw expressions. I was always good at that.
I closed my eyes, recalling the first day we met. His bright smile in the sunlight was so dazzling; he was a Prince. Long before we became best friends, I fell in love with him at first sight. But it was only unrequited love; I knew that well.
I slid down the car window to get some fresh air but accidentally caught a glimpse of our old high school. That bitter feeling filled my chest once again. Pierce was my first love, but I wasn't his.
In high school, I was just a boring nerd in others' eyes while Pierce Anderson was the shining quarterback. Everyone was surprised that we could be friends. Though envy arose, I enjoyed being around him. I slowly realized that I didn't just want to be his friend.
However, right when I was about to confess my feelings to him, another girl came into his life.
I shook my head, trying to rid myself of those sad memories. I gripped the cold wedding ring on my finger, telling myself the past was the past. Pierce said they were over, and I was his wife now. I was his wife who was carrying his baby.
I wiped the tears from the corners of my eyes and opened the door to our house. My heart calmed as I breathed in the scent of home. Our home. It wasn't as luxurious as his family's villa, but it was cozy. Pierce and I decorated it together with our own hands. We enjoyed it. Yes, I must have been overthinking. That woman had been out of our lives for a long time, and my marriage with Pierce had been as beautiful as a fairy tale for the past three years.
I glanced at the clock on the wall. At this point, Pierce should have gotten off the plane. He had been traveling for over a month for the sake of our family's business. Pierce was the President of ADE, the leading fashion magazine company in Asia, and I was actually the Vice President. We were not only life partners but also good partners at work.
I really missed him. I dialed his number immediately. I wanted to hear his voice now, to know when he would arrive home. I would prepare a good meal for him, and he would reward me with a sweet kiss. Then we might have passionate sex like what he gave me the night before his business trip. Oops, I almost forgot I was pregnant now. I needed to tell him this first before we could do anything else.
I was happily envisioning our lovely reunion when my heart dropped as a woman's voice came over the line.
[Hello?]
I snapped the phone as just one word came out. My phone fell to the floor, and my body started shaking uncontrollably. NO! It couldn't be her! It couldn't be Lexi! She was already out of our lives! I must have misheard.
I rushed to the fridge, attempting to calm myself with some alcohol. But the moment I touched the wine bottle, I was reminded of the doctor's words and my baby. I needed to be cautious for my baby's sake. I turned to grab a box of milk and walked toward the sofa.
I didn't know what made me recognize that as Lexi's voice at that moment. I meant Lexi and I were never close. Lexi Gilbert was a typical blonde beauty that men would go crazy for. She was the popular cheerleader in high school while Pierce was the star quarterback. A better match than he and a nerd like me, right? It wasn't surprising that he had fallen for her.

Kelly's POV
I slowly turned around, and I was certain I paled when I saw two people standing a few meters away from us. From the corner of my eye, I saw Pierce still on the floor, looking at the newcomers with a shocked face.
"G-Grams…" I mumbled as I felt my throat dry.
She shook her head as she laughed nervously. "I must be hearing things. How's everyone? I missed all of you, so we paid a visit."
"Grams…" Pierce pulled himself up and walked towards his grandmother.
She was the one who raised him, so he loved her and respected her so much. I cupped my mouth when Grams ignored Pierce and looked away.
I took a deep breath and gathered all my courage to speak again. "Grams, I'm sorry…"
She looked at me with tears in her eyes. "D-Did my grandson hurt you, Kelly?"
I shook my head. "No, Grams. He's the sweetest. I-I just… I just feel like I need to let him go because we're not really meant for each other."
"Kelly…" I heard Mrs. Anderson sobbing.
Grams shook her head and caressed her cheek. Grandpa immediately joined her and supported her as she almost lost her balance.
I felt my heart almost stop beating because of what happened. However, I remained in my place as I watched Pierce try to help his grandma.
She slowly nodded and smiled bitterly. "I want you two to end up together because I know you have a deeper connection. I know you will take care of each other and love each other more than anyone. I-I'm sorry for putting you in a complicated situation. I-I just thought…"
"Grams…" I rushed to her and held her hands. I shook my head and smiled at her. "I know… We know your intention, that's why we tried it. We gave it a try, Grams, but we didn't work. I'm sorry."
I'm sorry for lying, Grams. I don't want to hurt you because you're like a real grandmother to me.
The dinner didn't end well. Mr. Anderson walked out after Grams' emotional breakdown. She cried and asked for forgiveness for putting me in this situation, but it's not her fault because even if she threatened me to marry her grandson, without my feelings for him, I wouldn't have married him.
"Kelly…"
I stopped in my tracks after Pierce called my name, almost a whisper. We're now home, and I couldn't face him. The conversation with his family didn't really end well. Even if Grams said it's okay to choose myself, I know I'm hurting her inside. I know she's brokenhearted.
"Did you… mean what you said?" His voice sounded tired and lifeless.
I pressed my lips together and tightened my grip on my pouch.
Heaving a sigh, I slowly turned to face him. He was looking straight into my eyes as if he was actually waiting for me to look at him.

Kelly's POV
Looking back at them would only hurt me more. I restrained myself, my chest clenching again, but I wouldn't let this pain drive me nuts.
I was about to head to my office when someone called my name. My mood instantly lightened when I saw who it was.
"Chris!" I exclaimed, a smile spreading across my face.
He walked toward me, smiling sweetly, and when he got close enough, he pulled me into a gentle and warm hug.
Christopher Parker had been my college suitor. The last I heard about him was that he had become a professional model and actor, building a name for himself in the industry. Now, he was a big star.
"It's really true that you're working here," he said, taking in my appearance. "God! You're still as beautiful as ever."
Heat rushed to my cheeks. I playfully smacked his arm and smiled. "What are you doing here? I'm the Vice President now."
He nodded and smiled widely, his eyes twinkling with happiness. "I know. How are you? This is Pierce Anderson's company, right? Are you finally together?"
I was taken aback. He knew I was in love with Pierce. I had told Chris everything when I rejected him after he attempted to court me. He had been hurt back then, but he accepted my reasons. He was a good man, a good friend. I had felt sad when he decided to leave the country after our graduation. But that was how moving on should be, right?
"Kelly…"
I gave him a sweet smile. "I think some things are meant to remain as they are."
His lips parted as he stared into my eyes. To lighten the mood, I smiled at him again and added, "Did you come here to visit me, or do you have business here?"
He smiled again. "Well, I'm the new model here."
"You mean you're our new model for the magazine cover?" I was shocked. I hadn't had the chance to meet our new models because I had been busy with Pierce and his stupid decision to replace one of our models with Lexi.
He chuckled. "Why do I feel like you're not happy to see me?"
I laughed at him. "Are you serious? I am happy!"
"If you're happy, can I have dinner with you tonight? Just… a friendly dinner."
I grinned. "Sure."
He punched the air and grinned widely. I couldn't help but shake my head in disbelief. He was still as bubbly as ever.
