She was putting the finishing touches on her makeup, wearing an elegant black dress that highlighted her beauty. Today was her 25th birthday, and Sean had promised her a special dinner, as he always did.

Her phone rang suddenly - a message from an unknown number. Curious, she opened it to find four pictures attached with a short caption:

"Look who you're celebrating with."

In the pictures, Sean was sitting with another girl, laughing, touching her hair, and in the last picture... his lips were pressed against hers.

She felt as if the ground had moved beneath her. The phone slipped from her hand, her eyes widening in shock. "No... this can't be."

Her phone rang again - Sean had sent a message:

"I'm on my way. Get ready, tonight is special!"

She smiled bitterly. A few minutes later, Sean walked in with a bright smile and a carefully wrapped gift in his hands. "Happy birthday to the most beautiful woman in my life!"

She looked at him coldly and put the phone in front of him, the pictures were clear as day. She swallowed the lump in her throat and said quietly,

"So this is my birthday? A betrayal... and a gift I will never forget."

He froze in place, speechless. She turned away, leaving him behind as the tears finally fell, hiding from his sight.
