"ONLINE LOVE"
BY TAMOOR JAVAID

    When Sam downloaded Facebook, he created an account there. As soon as he opened the app, he was surprised to see that he could easily get in touch with different countries' people around the whole world. He was so excited to talk to foreigners. He began to send friend requests to different people, some of them had accepted his friend requests so that they could be friends with him while some of them had not, and rejected his friend requests.

    The people who he had been a friend, he began to send them messages. And he got many replies in return. He had some friends from America, Russia, and Pakistan. He sent a message to a girl from Russia by saying that “Hello How are you today?”. He got a reply in return that said, “ I am fine thank you, and how are you doing?” he again replied to her, and said, “ I’m also fine, thank you for asking”, “where are you from?” he asked. She said, “I am Russian, and you?”. He said, “I am Pakistani, nice to meet you, and your profile says that your name is Jessica. Is that your real name?” “ Yes, that is my real name, and your name is Sam?” he said, “Yes”, “ Nice to meet you Sam”, she said then.

    That’s how they began to chat with each other with the help of Facebook. They began to chat every day. Sam liked to chat to her a lot, and someday, asked her to talk to him on call so that he could hear her voice. He said to her, “Let’s talk on the call today” in return, she said, “okay”. Sam made her a call, and she picked up. Sam started to talk to her by asking how she was, and she said, “ I’m doing good, And you?” he said, “ I’m great thanks”. Sam really liked her voice and asked her to talk to him on call every day and night. They always kept laughing, while they were talking, and they had been very good friends.

    One day, He asked her to send him some pictures so that he could see how she looked like. He sent her a message, and said, “ Could you please send me some of your pictures so that I can see my friend how she looks.” “Yes, sure why not, you’re my best friend,” she said, and then she sent him some pictures. As soon he opened the chat to see her pictures, he had lost his heart on her, his heart was not his heart anymore. He liked her very much. And said to her, “ Wow, you’re so beautiful I’ve never seen such a gorgeous girl like you in my whole life” “Oh, thank you very much Sam” she said.

    And then she asked him to send her some of his pictures so that she could see Sam how he looked like. He also sent her some pictures, and as soon as she saw him, she liked him a lot too.

    They liked each other a lot and talked every night. Sam used to think about Jessica all the time. He fell in love with her so much. One night, he told her the truth about his heart and proposed to her. He said to her, “Jessica, I really love you a lot, and want to meet you, and spend my whole life with you” “She said in return, “Sam, I love you too, but I couldn’t dare to tell you that”.

    And that’s how their love story was started. They never met each other but always talked with the help of voice and video calls so that they could see each other all the time. With the passage of time, when he was completely into her, he wanted to go to Russia so that he could meet her, and marry her, but he was a poor man. He couldn’t make it. When he used to see her on a video call, he always got tears in his eyes. And she couldn’t see him like that, she always got tears in her eyes too.

    With the passage of time, he started to work very hard, so that he could collect enough money, and could be able to go to Russia where he could meet the love of his life. He got a job in a mechanic shop where he always worked as a mechanic and worked day and night to get enough money.

    After a year, he had collected enough money, and he could buy himself a round-trip ticket as well as Visa to Russia. He went to the Russian Embassy where he filled out some documents to get the visa.

    He, later on, came to surprise her love with the good news that he had filled out the documents, and he would get the visa. As soon as he got the visa, he had bought himself round trip tickets to go to Russia. The day, he had a flight, he told her to see him at the airport at 10 PM.

    

    For the first time, he sat in an airplane and was feeling very happy that he was on the way to see his love. As soon as the airplane started to fly, he got so scared, and the one who was sitting next to him, told him not to be scared, and nothing would happen. Sam got a smile on his face and told okay to him.

    After he felt comfortable in the airplane, he closed his eyes to get some rest. After a few hours, when he got up, he had reached the airport in Russia where his love was waiting for him. As soon as the airplane landed, he began to run to the airport, and when he got there, his love Jessica was waiting for him. He threw away his all bags, and ran to her, and got her very tightly in his arms, and put his lips on her forehead, and kissed her, and said, “I love you so much Jessica”, and then she said in return, “I love you more than myself Sam”.

    She got him her home where he met her family, and her family liked Sam a lot. After he got some rest and got up, she took Sam to some beautiful places so that he could visit Russia. After a few days, he said to her family, “ I want to marry Jessica right now, and get her into my country where I want to spend my whole with her, I will always look after her more than myself, and always love her more than anyone in my life.” Her family said, “ Okay”, and advised him to always take care of her, and love her a lot.

    They both got married according to the rites and rituals of Russia. When he got back into his own country, Pakistan, he again got married to her according to the rites, and rituals of Pakistani culture. After the marriage, they began to live very happily in Pakistan.
