A Not-So Happy Birthday

The rest of the journey was silent and awkward. When we finally reached Fairment Chateau Laurier, I got out of the car with my shoulders dropped and my head hanging low. I saw my butler Meil standing at the front door of the hotel. I gave him a forced, weak smile. I started speed walking towards him but I felt a hand on my shoulder and that halted me to a stop. The hand forced me to turn around. As I turned around, I found the owner of the hand nevertheless it was Eva.

"Jennifer Mary Ieyels! You better listen to me." I opened my mouth to say something, "NO! You will Shut Up and Listen to me. This is your weekend, you are going to enjoy it. DO NOT -
I repeat - DO NOT Let a stupid obstacle like Haliee and Stephen ruin your weekend. After all how many times does The Jennifer Ieyels turn 18?" Eva rambled. I nodded. For us I had booked two suites. The original sleeping arrangement was me, Eva and Hal in one suite with Stephen alone in the other one for one night as our other best friend, Charlie was going to join us a day late as he was stuck somewhere. But then seeing Haliee my 'best friend' glare at me the whole time we were checking in, we decided it would be better if Eva and I would be in one, and Stephen and Haliee in another.

For the first day I tried to avoid Stephen and Haliee as much as possible. On the second day, I woke up to find a weeping Haliee in the living room and Eva trying to soothe her.

I rushed towards Haliee with worries about her in my mind.
" What happened Hal? Are you okay? Is Stephen okay?" The words poured out of my mouth. Hal just cried harder. I shot Eva a questioning look. She in return mouthed 'Stephen broke up with Haliee in the morning'. I nodded showing that I understood.

I pulled Haliee in a hug and patted her back whilst she cried on my shoulder. We stayed in that position for 5 minutes, I thought everything would be okay between us. But Haliee pushed me away roughly. It resulted in me being on the floor, hitting my head and Eva just sitting there looking shocked.

"What was that for?" I hissed in pain.
"You deserve it!" Haliee sneered, "You jealous, ungrateful idiot. Steph broke up with me because of you. He said I was being mean to you and blah, blah, blah. Are you happy now? You took away all that I had and loved!" By then Haliee was bawling her eyes out.
