6 The Next Nights

The next succeeding nights are their chatting on video calls between them two.

Joys, laughters, cuteness and eventually love between them two is developing in their hearts.

"Love is in the air" is very evident in thier eyes and hearts...its undeniable that they have developed thier love even distance between them didn't matter to them. If it's not for the fact that they are dating online, you wouldn't really spot the difference of thier closeness as lovebirds.

Finally, Karl decided to pop up the question to Mj.

Karl's facial expression became serious all of a sudden.

"Mj, I love you so much and I can't continue to live a life without you. Will you marry me?"

Mj was in a great shock. Wait...What did he say? Her heart skip a beat. How is this possible online? Questions bombarded quickly in her mind. What will she answer then?

"Mj?"

She snapped out of a daze when she heard him calling her name.

"Will you marry me?"

"Yes!...But how? We are thousands of miles apart, Karl, you know that!"

"I'll come there to your country to marry you! But I'll have to save up yet for maybe 2 years so I can come there."

"Promise?"

"Promise!"

"You will have to promise me that you will wait for me until I come there."

"I promise, I will wait for you Karl, because I love you very much too!"

And so they discussed about thier plans for thier future....

"How many children do you want?"

"Two"

"Boy or girl?"

"1 boy and 1 girl"

"Where will we live then? In my country or your country?"

"Which do you prefer?"

"We shall plan about it thoroughly okay?"

"Okay!"

"I will send you our rings on mail, okay?"

"Okay"

"I love you so much Mj"

"I love you too very much, Karl"

And so they shared their love even just expressing it online yet. With a promise in their hearts that they will be together soon....

Each nights they will express their love verbally online.Their longing for each other seems to be in agony. For eventhough they are freely expressing their love to each other, they will have to wait yet for 2 years before they could finally be physically together.

And so they are counting the days, weeks, months and eventually it's been a year had passed and yet they continued to express their love to each other online..

There were times that Karl would throw a kiss to her on the video call, and there were also times that she would do the same to him.

There were times he would sing a song to her strumming his guitar, and there were times she would do the same to him too. Or better yet, they would sing on duet, like crazy. hehehe.

They were having fun with each other and at the same time loving each other in longing...

They sung the song 'I Count The Minutes' by Ricky Martin, together in duet...

"This world don't turn when you're not in my arms 

The sun don't shine whenever I'm without you 

And there's an empty space inside my heart 

When you're gone 

And whenever you're gone 

It's too long 

And the waiting is driving me crazy 

Baby I'm not alive 

Till you're here by my side oh

I count the minutes 

I count the hours 

I count the seconds 

Till you're here by my side again 

And every minute (every minute) 

Goes on for hours (hours) 

Until you're with me 

Till I look in your eyes again 

And time is standing still till you're 

Here with me 

I need your love to set me free 

Set me free

Each night's a lifetime when I'm not with you 

And every day just seems to take forever 

I'm missing when I should be kissing you 

I can't wait 

'Cause I live for the love that we make 

I can't breathe till I feel you beside me 

And I'm lost in the dark 

Till you're here in my arms, oh 

I count the minutes

I can't wait a minute more 

Just to touch you 

'Cause I love you baby 

Don't make me stay away from you too long 

'Cause the waiting is 

Driving me crazy 

Baby I'm not alive 

Till you're here by my side 

Here by my side 

I count the minutes"

Years have passed...

When suddenly an unexpected accident happened...

Before 2 years will pass...Karl met a vehicular accident! He survived from the accident but he is in a coma for only God knows when he will wake up, or will he be able to wake up then...

Mj panicked and don't know what to do. She couldn't just quickly go there to Belgium and take care of Karl and wait for him to wake up or not.

Besides, she don't have enough money to pay for her visa and plane tickets of going there to Belgium.

"Oh my God, what will I do? Help me." she cried helplessly in prayers to God..

Karl is an orphan. Both his parents died in a vehicular accident when he was 20yrs. old and he is the only son. Only his concerned neighbor was able to inform Mj of his current situation. For he has written in his notebook on the desk every information details of Mj. So that concerned neighbor contacted her then....
