There’s a guy who is so addicted to Facebook has a friend in it named Maria in which he does not know personally. The guy deletes his unknown friends but the coincidence of not deleting Maria in his friends just let the girl remain. She does not have a clear or close picture of her on Facebook that’s why Zhab doesn’t recognize her. He even thought that Maria was boyish for she is in a relationship with a girl named Jam on Facebook.
II
The guy is Zhab, studying in Republic Central Colleges (RCC), who is such a jolly, jocular, friendly and sociable person. He had befriended many of his fellow RCCians though he is a graduating student. He is the type of a guy who falls in love so quickly and he is not that “torpe” so he confronts the girl that he loves her. Though so quick, Zhab means what he says. He does not care if he would be rejected as long as he would not regret that he didn’t expressed his feelings to a girl.
February 11, 2011, Friday – Zhab saw a girl who was very beautiful and pleasing and so fell in love at first sight, in his four years in RCC, it is his first time to see the girl though they are inside one school. He tried to know her name but failed to do it. Zhab suddenly saw a friend and tried to ask about the girl’s name. Zhab’s friend tried to look at her ID from afar and he said, “Angeline.” It seems inaccurate but Zhab keeps it in his memory, all he knows now is that the girl was from the Juniors because of the P.E. Shirt she’s wearing.
Since Zhab has many friends in the campus, he tried to ask his friends - through text - about the girl and confirm if there is Angeline in RCC. Unfortunately, there’s no Angeline. Zhab still does not lose hope. The next week, Zhab was not able to see her for it’s the Intramurals and Foundation Week in their school. The week after the Intrams ...
III
February 22, 2011, Tuesday – the girl, with her friend (the one who is in relationship with Maria on Facebook named Jam), approached Zhab for a question and so they talked. Zhab became curious why the girl he loves was with Jam, he grabbed the opportunity to ask the name of the girl. He discovered that the girl on Facebook and the girl he fell in love with was only one – she is Maria. What a coincidence, maybe the reason for the girl not to be deleted is that they are meant to know each other. There, he knew Maria in Facebook wasn’t boyish, Jam was only her friend and that relationship thing was just for fun.
In the evening, they were both online in Facebook and Zhab chat him. For the whole evening, they were chatting and talks like they knew each other for a long time. They even talked about the upcoming Junior-Senior Promenade, which they will attend soon. Maria said she’ll be wearing a dress made of basahan with different colors. That sounds weird right for it’s too imposible but that’s how the story goes, both of them cracks a joke about it. Both of them knew that they have many similarities, and so Maria said to Zhab that they are “SOULMATE”.
Zhab then says simply that he will dance with Maria in the Prom. Then they made it weird again, they’ve said that they will dance after the Prom at the middle of the road. Until, both of them logged out.
IV
Zhab and Maria became friends. Since the day they knew each other, they often meet early in the morning on the corridor and anytime on their campus. When they see each other in the morning, the girl first greets Zhab with “Goodmorning” and the guy gives response. Sometimes they talk even for a while.
One hot afternoon, Zhab saw Maria at the canteen. However, she’s with her boyfriend who’s a not-that-close friend of Zhab. Zhab was somehow sad for a while. Suddenly, he doesn’t mind, anyway it is better he knew it too soon. Zhab then felt happy for he became a friend of Maria.
V
The JS Promenade came and everyone looks so glamorous. As Zhab goes out of the car, he has been searching for Maria but he hasn’t found her. However it’s okay, he then found his classmates. Inside the Rib-Eye Function Hall – place where the JS Prom 2011 was held – was full of handsome guys and pretty girls.
Lucky for Zhab, in the crowd at the stage, he saw Maria. Zhab walked towards her and asked for her hand to dance. Maria then gave her hand. It became a very wonderful moment for both. They even talked about their conversation on Facebook while dancing, and they laughed about it. They danced on the dance floor with the song "King and Queen of Hearts". ♫
Though Maria’s boyfriend was there also, Zhab was still able to dance with her. And nothing’s bad there since they’re friends.
VI
Zhab, who is eager to get to know the girl more, wanted to know the cellphone number of Maria. Zhab knew that his first love and Maria are friends, he tried to ask his first love if he could get the number of Maria. Luckily, Zhab’s first love gave it. From that night, Zhab and Maria started to text each other.
As time passes by, Zhab really feels the intense love for the girl.
VII
Zhab saw the boyfriend of Maria with another girl, he concluded that there’s a third party in their relationship with Maria. For his concern for Maria, he will surely say what he saw, it’s not to make them angry and have break-up but to make Maria aware of the wrong doings of his boyfriend.
The next day morning, Zhab and Maria met again then without saying a word about the incident. Maria said she knows about it but his boyfriend is lying that the girl was his cousin. Maria was also aware of the lie and she said to Zhab that by tomorrow, they would break up.
Zhab was surprised with that. He doesn’t know if he should be happy for Maria would be single or if he should blame himself for there are couples breaking up. However, nothing he can do, it’s them to decide.
The day after the breakup, Zhab and Maria texted each other again and their Zhab says he’s very thankful for that worthwhile moment of dancing. Maria was pleased and said thank you. Zhab then asked if she enjoyed the whole prom though he was with his boyfriend that night. Maria responded that it’s awful and she doesn’t want to remember it anymore. She also said that was worse.
VIII
Zhab has a concerned friend, a girl, who noticed something between him and Maria, She told Zhab that Maria is some kind of flirt but Zhab thinks of it as a judgmental act only. Though Zhab don’t know much of Maria yet, he still don’t believe it. Whether it is true or not, Zhab still has the love for Maria. If ever it is true, Zhab just thinks that he can change Maria by giving her the true love he has.
IX
Graduation Day is getting nearer, Zhab decided of revealing his feelings to his special someone. He does not want to regret that he would not be able to express his feelings. It was Sunday evening, March 20, 2011.
March 21, 2011, Monday – Zhab woke up early to prepare before going to school. He first went to 7-11 to buy a chocolate and then went to the flower shop to buy a red rose. He went to school neatly then patiently waited for Maria. Unfortunately, Maria came late so Zhab just asked his friend to give it to her.
March 22, 2011, Tuesday – The same preparation happened, but Maria was absent. Zhab was disappointed but he never loses hope. In the evening, he sends her a text message about it and confirms if she will enter the school by tomorrow.
The next day, the same preparation happened and luckily, Maria came early. Zhab went to the classroom of Maria and called her. Maria came out of their room and she was surprised, maybe she didn’t expect that i get ready to tell her personally. Zhab didn’t hesitate to ask her “Pwede ba kita ligawan?” and she responded “Ngayon? Di pa pwede eh. Kaya mo ba maghintay?” Of course, I replied with “Yes!” (Zhab silently said “I Love You”)
That moment made them closer to each other; though Zhab was not yet given the chance for courting, he still shows that he passionately love the girl. They started to know each other better.
They even chat on Facebook often every evening and on March 31, 2011, they discovered that they both have Twitter. So, they followed each other. From that night, they’ve been tweeting instead of chatting through Facebook.
X
April 6, 2011, Wednesday – It’s the day of Graduation. There is a mass offering in the morning and the Graduation event is in the afternoon. At noontime, Zhab asked Maria if she would come. Unfortunately, Maria can’t because it’s also the graduation of her little sister. However, Maria said she would try to come. Zhab felt a bit sadness but he understands her anyway, her reason is also much important.
The graduation event proper came, the guy is about to graduate, walking down the aisle, thinking that he will leave his school. He’s still looking around for Maria. She’s not there and Zhab just focused on the event. (Zhab’s plan if Maria was around, he will make his parents and Maria to meet.)
After the event, they went home and just enjoyed the mini party for him. (How he wish that Maria was there)
XI
For the whole summer vacation, they’re not able to meet even once. However, they still have communications via text message, Facebook and often on Twitter.
Twitter has been they’re best communication online. Whenever they are online, they tweet. The’ve been talking whatever they want and sometimes what’s trending on twitter.
More often, they communicate through text, and sometimes they do it until midnight since cellular phones are just handy. One night, they were texting each other then Maria said wait for she’s doing something. So Zhab just watched television but it’s already too late in the midnight, he thinks Maria will not text anymore. Suddenly, Maria texted around 2AM, she was impressed that Zhab was still awake.
Also, while texting each other, there are stories shared and jokes cracked, and one time, Maria said Zhab has a sense of Humor. It was only Maria who said that to Zhab.
As they continuously communicate to each other, they have known each other even better; discovering a lot of common things and shares the same thing. Often, the common things they have.
Maria is an Azkals fan for they are trending that time and they are blooming in the limelight. She influenced Zhab and so both of them become fans of Azkals.
Also, both of them are fans of Demi Lovato and so they are called Lovatics. Demi is such an inspiration to both of them, behind her great and meaningful songs is a story of a change.
XII
Time flies so fast, it’s the school comeback. However, Zhab and Maria are not together in one school anymore. Zhab has to move to Holy Angel University for his college degree, he took up BS Accountancy. On the other hand, Maria remains on RCC to finish her High School and she is next for graduation. Distance is not a hindrance for Zhab, he still visits RCC often to see her and visit his friends.
Though he is on HAU, there are many beautiful women there. His heart stays on RCC, to Maria specifically. Maria has changed him a lot and even Zhab wonders for how he has been changed. He even thought love is powerful.
For his love to Maria, he even gave some of her needs such as books; he gave his’ and bought her those he does not have. He even searches for on-sale books for Maria’s friends to get close with them.
July 1, 2011, Friday – The first time that Zhab asked Maria to go out with him to watch a movie, Transformers III. Maria agreed but she’s not much sure for her parents are strict. Maria said she would just text Zhab by tomorrow if she’s given the permission.
July 2, 2011, Saturday – Zhab woke up early to wait for Maria’s text if they are to go or not. Zhab first texted Maria and asked her. After an hour, Maria replied with No. How sad. Zhab is very muchnanghihinayang but nothing he can do. He just went to the mall alone and bought his Azkals shirt. Now, both of them also have their own Azkals shirt.
(Zhab wanted to be with her badly and he wanted Maria to choose the design for her Azkals’ shirt)
XIII
Maybe, distance is really a hindrance. For Zhab does not know what happens to Maria, he is being paranoid and curious about the girl’s current relationship status. Zhab thinks Maria has someone already and nothing he can do. It’s kind of hard for Zhab so he would just keep himself a little far from Maria.
Zhab, instead, sees it on the good perception. He treats Maria as a friend though he still truly loves her. He just thinks that it is the way that they would remain connected longer.
Maria’s birthday comes; Zhab prepares a gift for her that represents four things: “Happy Birthday” “I Love You”, “Thank You” and “Goodbye”. On the day of her birthday, August 9, 2011, Zhab allotted a little time of his lunch break just to give his gift to Maria on RCC. Maria was surprised – very surprised – of the gift and Zhab is very glad that she liked it very much. The gift contains a T-shirt, baller, cellphone lanyard and ID lanyard designed with Azkals. However, Zhab did not say to Maria what he means for the gift, what is clear is that the gift is a present for her birthday.
Since that day, Zhab decided they shouldn’t meet for long but they still communicate sometimes. Still, Zhab greets Maria “goodnight soulmate” often every night and text each other whenever available.
XIX
They also give moral support whenever they have competitions and hard doings.
Zhab was about to compete in a poetry writing contest, an event in line with Buwan ng Wika at Holy Angel University. Only Maria among all RCCians was informed about it. Of course, Maria wishes him good luck.
Zhab secretly knew that Maria as also competing for Mutya ng Buwan ng Wika. Zhab told Maria about it and wishes her also good luck. Maria was surprised that Zhab knows it, he then told Maria that her classmates told him.
The night before the contest, an RCCian friend of Zhab told him that Maria already have a boyfriend. However, Zhab just kept it and he didn’t ask Maria about it so the way they treat each other would not change.
Zhab’s intense feeling of love is above everything what Maria does. He stays in love with her after all, a good perception he has. He thinks that anytime they would break up and he could have his turn.
Just like a child who’s playing too much on his childhood days so when he started studying, he focus on studies than playing. That’s how Zhab thinks as of now, he wants Maria to play on love until the time it Maria and Zhab would be together, no more playing.
The whole night, Zhab was thinking of that. He was quite depress and he was unable to practice his writing skill. He will just write on the spot by tomorrow.
XV
August 18, 2011, Thursday – Early in the morning, around 5AM, Maria texted Zhab with good luck and #gosoulmatego for support. Zhab woke up and read the text of Maria, he was surprised and felt the luck. However, he’s still depress.
At the contest proper, Zhab have written the best he can. He passed his written poetry although he knows to himself that the poem wasn’t the best yet. When asked by his friends about the contest, he answers that he might not win but he still hopes. Announcement of winners was the next day.
August 19, 2011, Friday – In the evening, Zhab was announced as the First Runner-up winner. He was very glad for he didn’t expect to win anymore. However, we was very thankful to God that night.
Zhab soon texted Maria about it, and then on Twitter they were like celebrating. Zhab said to her, I made it and thanks to you, now it’s your turn, you can do it. #gosoulmatego!
August 30, 2011 – Zhab has his class in the morning and the event is also in the morning, that’s why he is unable to watch Maria on the stage. He just texted his friend, classmate of Maria, to capture a video and photos of Maria. In that event, Maria was hailed First Runner-up. And the news very soon known by Zhab and he became glad. Zhab soon texted Maria saying congratulations.
In the evening, they were texting again, celebrating for the win. It has been a great month for them and they’re lucky both of them had won on their competition. What’s nice is both of them are First Runner-up, seems like soul mates. #gosoulmatego!
XVI
Zhab knew that Maria had a broke up again. He became very concern of her condition, he doesn’t want her to be sad. He texted her with the intention of making her happy so won’t feel sadness much. Maria calls Zhab as a SG that stands Security Guard. How weird it is but it sounds funny for them. Until, they call each other SG and then time came the meaning became “Servants of God”. Both of them are close to God.
Zhab then smells another chance for her. After a long time not seeing each other, Zhab appears in RCC again to meet Maria. And, they became closer this time.
All of a sudden, Demi Lovato released her comeback album with her carrying single “Skyscraper”. Demi blasted again her career and became trending in Twitter very often.
Azkals also popped up for the Long Teng Cup. And, both of them had their own new Azkals Shirt in addition to their collections.
Those became their topics while texting or tweeting each other. Just like before they became cold. It is like, the time they became okay again, their interests or idols goes into limelight again. That was unexpected and Zhab was amazed of it.
October 2, 2011 – Camp Rock was aired on TV but on tagalong version, it’s kinda funny hearing foreigners talking in tagalong. Zhab wanted to watch it but he was unable to. Instead, he borrowed a copy of the movie to Maria. Maria agreed to lend him her Camp Rock and said they will buy a clear copy of Camp Rock 2. The next day, they meet.
October 3, 2011, Monday – The first time they went out of RCC, they went to market to buy a DVD of Camp Rock 2.
In the market, they were searching if there’s still Camp Rock 2 and luckily they found one. Zhab purchased it and gave it to Maria. However, Zhab holds the Camp Rock and Camp Rock 2 movie to watch it at home. They would just meet again to return it back.
Before heading back to RCC, they ate for a while. They went to Chowking and ordered the same meal. After eating, they went back straight to RCC. They stayed there with Maria’s classmates. They went home at around 7PM, Zhab as a gentleman, guided Maria going to their home. There he also knew where Maria’s house is. It was the longest that Zhab was with Maria together, and he is very happy for that day and seems unforgettable.
XVII
Zhab thought he’s almost there but then he discovered he’s in the middle of nowhere. The closeness in them was again in danger; Maria is becoming cold again. And, she’s like giving less attention to Zhab. Zhab really thinks of it, he wonders what went wrong for her to change. Nothing’s wrong. Well, he then thinks that was just a short happiness given by God.
It was wrong timing, the Final examination days of Zhab was approaching and he was depressed of what happened. To avoid the feeling of being hurt, Zhab keeps himself busy studying so he could have high score in his examinations, it’s too good for a student to think of it.
Until, Maria doesn’t even text Zhab anymore. Maybe he’s moving away to Zhab so he could let him forget about her. It’s like a non-verbal kind of saying goodbye. She does not even reply to Zhab texts. So Zhab did the same thing.
XVIII
All examinations are done, final requirements submitted and hello SEMBREAK for Zhab. He is already free from studying as of now for four weeks. He has nothing to get busy with so all the time he was thinking of Maria. As a remedy, he is writing poems about the things that he feels so that while thinking of her, he could be busy and the sembreak could not be wasted.
At the second week of Zhab's sembreak, he knew that his grades are high and he assumes he was part of the Dean's List (Those who have the average ranging from 1.26 - 1.75). He wanted to thank Maria for it for she became the inspiration, but he just became silent instead. (Before, they were celebrating everything good that’s happening but now it's not the same anymore)
XIX
Now, they were just sending each other some Group Messages. “Masakit isipin na iyong taong katext mo ng napakadalas noon, Group messages na lang ang ipinapadala ngayon”
Zhab again thinks of his thought before,
“Just like a child who’s playing too much on his childhood days so when he started studying, he focus on studies than playing. That’s how Zhab thinks as of now, he wants Maria to play on love until the time it Maria and Zhab would be together, no more playing.”
He also decided to stay single and let destiny to work on now. If they are really destined for each other, they will meet in the future and they will be together more than friends.
Now, Zhab is moving on but he doesn’t know if he can. He’s always emotional of the hurting he is feeling. He cannot deny to himself that he feels the pain too much. As he wants to move on, the more he reminisce the moments with her. It’s really hard to move on. Also, the things they had before are missed by Zhab.
Zhab’s dad brought Zhab a soccer ball which make him think of Maria more. One time while playing, he said to himself,
"How I wish I'm playing with Maria because they wanted to play it before and also she is the reason why he wanted football."
And then whenever Zhab tunes in to the music channel and even radio, songs played are related to Zhab. Another, there is an event in RCC and both of them went there, but not together. After the event, heading home and it's already too late in the evening, Zhab saw Maria and he hesitated if he should guide her until she reaches home. However, Maria was with her friend and Zhab is a little bit shy since they're not close. Zhab finally decided that he would let them reach their home alone.
After that incident, Zhab regrets very much. Until he reaches home, until the next days, he was thinking about it. He regrets and thinks he should still be a gentleman to guide them.
He cannot deny to himself that he cannot move on and he always thinks of her. Many has changed to him and only Maria does it, how can he move on if the best part of him was only Maria.
XX
Zhab thinks of another words of love,
“Moving on is like a toothache. You will always feel the pain and you cannot avoid it. But someday the tooth will be gone and you will not feel the pain again. Same with moving on, there is the pain, and the day you finally let go of the person, you will be relieved.”
So Zhab just suno himself of the things that make him remember Maria, instead of avoiding it, he would likely to have it.
Whether dreaming while sleeping or daydreaming, Maria is the main person appearing.
XXI
Zhab now is spending most of his time studying and he already changed his plans. Now he wants to be part of the top students in his batch so he could get a scholarship. And he wants to finish his course so he could be successful and prove to himself he can live without Maria.
However, he still plans that if someday Maria and him will meet, he wants to court her again and make sure they’ll marry in the home of God.
Once upon a time, Maria came and gave colors to his life. Just like other stories, there is the ending. But, is this the ending already? How sad if it is. Anyway, they say that there’s a new door opening when there’s a door that closed.
How deep is the love of Zhab. Although he knows that the girl was not there anymore, he did not care for all he can feel is only love - pure love. After all, he still loves Maria as part of his life. He loved, loves and will love Maria faithfully.
XXII
After several weeks, they still are friends. They text each other and asking how's life. The conversation went smooth but it's hard for Zhab. Maria sees Zhab as a friend while Zhab sees Maria as his everything. However, Zhab is happy that it was Maria who texts him first.
Zhab pretends that he already has moved on, but honestly he didn't. Maria is still the only girl in his heart and mind, unfortunately, it won't seem to be them anymore.
XXIII
Until now, they haven't seen each other, Zhab really misses her too much but he has nothing to do. He wants to go to Maria but he doesn't know how while in the first place, there's no reason for Zhab to come.
From the day that second semester of Zhab has started, he had less focus in his studies. He doesn't seem to study well, he seems like uninspired. Well, he's inspired with someone who makes him feel expired.
The bad thing is, Zhab promised himself to make a good show on his studies so he could achieve higher grades and to gain a scholarship. But, what's happening with him, he changed a lot. No doubt, his studies is affected by his emotions.
Zhab's life became boring, he does not enjoy it anymore. He goes to school unwell and goes home unwell, something's wrong and even Zhab noticed it. He has the money he wants to buy what he wants, but still not contented with what money can buy. How pity he is.
Zhab still prays whenever he goes to church that Maria is safe and happy, also he wishes someday it is still them. He still wants all the best for her.
XXIII
One time, a friend of Maria and Zhab texted each other. Maria's friend said, Maria still wears the baller & other things that Zhab gave to her as a gift. Zhab is very happy, very much happy. Though the feeling he has is still hurting him, he suddenly felt happiness for what he knew.
Zhab now plans for another gift to give for Maria this coming Christmas Day. Now, he is still thinking what to give.
XXIV
It's Christmas Eve, Zhab hasn't prepared anything for Maria anymore since they won't seem to meet. However, he is planning to greet Maria at exactly 12AM. He does things to help his parents for the Noche Buena until 12AM came. Zhab hurriedly sent the text he prepared to greet Maria a very nice message. Hoping she replies.
Zhab was waiting in vain, received no reply. Zhab just slept in the couch with different thoughts in mind. One thouht, he would just greet Maria again on the New Year's Eve or Media Noche.
XXV
On the new years eve, Zhab was thinking to say goodbye and give thanks to Maria for a wonderful year. He already thought that there's nothing to happen anymore. He would just conclude that 2011 is just a very amazing year for there came a girl into her life that made him feel so special and the end of the year seems to be the end of the love he cherish.
So, At exactly 12AM, Zhab greeted Maria, along with the words to say goodbye and thanks. Zhab dedicated the song "My Love Is Like A Star" sang by their favorite singer Demi Lovato, which is a very good song to let Maria know how Zhab still love him. The chorus lyrics:
".. My love is like a star, yeah, you can't always see me but you know that i'm always there. If you see one shining, take it as mine, and remember that I always care. If you see a comet, baby I'm on it, I'm makin' my way back home. Just follow the glow, it won't be long, just know that you're not alone... ♫"
And still, no reply. Different thoughts on the mind again until he got slept on the bed.
XXVI
Since the start of 2012, Zhab didn't text or send Group Messages to Maria and to her friends related to him. Zhab becomes desperate to forget the feelings he has.
Zhab entered being a part-time student aide in Holy Angel University and was assigned at CICT Dean's Office. This became effective to forget Maria for the meantime. But, still, while on the workplace, Zhab is still thinking of her, searching her name on google (since FB and Twitter are not allowed) just to see a picture of her.
Zhab just spends his time with his work and studies, and surfing the internet. Same routine happens everyday.
On February 11, Zhab remembered the day he met Maria and reminisce everything that happened since they met each other. On February 14, Valentine's Day, Zhab went to RCC to see Maria after his work. But, when Zhab went there, Maria seems to be not at the school anymore.
XXVII
Zhab removed his birthday on Facebook a month before it. It is just a way to know who really are friends with Zhab, those who knows when is Zhab's special day.
Zhab's birthday is approaching. Zhab has been longing for Maria so much. He then prayed to God that he want to see Maria which can serve as his birthday gift. On the March 16th, Friday, Zhab went to the Apung Macalulu Chuch, near to Maria's house and school. He went there to pray and suddenly, unexpectedly, Maria was there. Though they are seats apart and not able to talk, Zhab is already glad for that. It is very unexpected because Maria has her classes but then she's there on the church. Maybe it's God's plan and I thank him very much! :)
When Zhab's birthday came, there are only few who greeted him. Sadly, Maria is one of those who didn't greet. Of course, it's a very big deal for Zhab. On his birthday last year, Maria was the very first one to greet him but now, no greeting at all. Maybe, Zhab should just stop thinking that he is someone on the life of Maria. Instead, he should think he's just anyone who passed by on her life.
On March 18, Zhab went to different places, alone. Upon going home, Zhab he dropped by to RCC. Unknowingly, there was an event on the school. The lassmates of Maria asked me to watch and so I went there. I, with the friends of Maria, went to their room and so I saw Maria there. Surprisingly, she sang aloud, greeting me a Happy Birthday. Truly, it's better late than never and it's the value that counts. Honestly, I am overjoyed and I am very very thankful. :) Maybe it would be better if she greeted me without me telling them it was my birthday. But, still I am very thankful.

During the summer, Zhab is convincing Maria to study on the same school as him. Throughout the summer, Zhab is doing that though they text very seldom
And, it was a success! Maria studies in Holy Angel University! They are on the same campus now.
Zhab thinks they would be able to meet often since Maria took HRM as her course. Then, he knew that the HRM moved to another building, meaning, they are way far from each other.
XXIX
Maria is still included on Zhab's Prayers, praying she is still on good condition, in good health and happy as it seem.
It seem very simple, but it means a lot to Zhab.

Maria's Birthday is approaching. Zhab has been thinking of a gift to give. He was planning to leave the gift to Maria's room in school but named to her. So Maria wouldn't know whom it is from. Zhab made up his mind to give him a bouquet of flowers, a cake and a 1Direction Magazine.
Just before the day of her birthday, it rained very hard, There's no class on the day of Maria's birthday so Zhab decided to donate a part of the cash to the needy instead of giving a gift to Maria. People need them more than Maria needs a gift, maybe Zhab made a very wise decision there.
XXXI
Success! After a long time of murmuring! Zhab had successfully moved on after a long period of time! How did Zhab confirm about it?
September 3, 2011 - Zhab saw Maria halfway, she is with a guy and seems they're a couple. And Zhab felt nothing anymore, only a feeling of seeing a friend after a long time.
Zhab just realized this while thinking of that incident:
"You'll know you have moved on when you see the one you love with the one she loves, and you feel happy for them but still wishes that the one she loves will not hurt the one you love."
I think it's about time to be happy again, now that I am loving to study a lot, maybe I can use most of my time studying rather than being depressed by love.

I think it's about time to be happy again, now that I am loving to study a lot, maybe I can use most of my time studying rather than being depressed by love.
Now, I would just let God find the person that can make me really happy and let Go of the things that makes me sad. I really thank God, He is my Father.
The only challenge for me is, how can I spread love to many people, so I can share the love that God gives to me. :)
I am ending this story here. But, what if there's next?
Continuation depends on the future happenings.
P.S.
They say, it is sweet when someone knows every detail of you not because you remind them but because they pay much attention.
