While leaving the college, Umar saw Maria going home on a motorcycle with her father. A desire arose in his heart.
"I wish I had been on a bike in her father's place. And Maria would sit behind me."
Regretfully, he turned and headed towards the parking area. Where he had parked his bike. He took out his bike and started home himself.
After reaching home and getting fresh, he sat at the dining table. Mom made chicken biryani today. After having lunch, he came to his room and lay down. After a while, he went to the academy.
He was lost in Maria's thoughts. He was deeply in love with Maria. Ever since he saw Maria in college, he lost his senses. However, he had yet to speak to Maria. He didn't even know Maria. But what do you do when the heart listens to someone? Sometimes, one loses sight of a stranger even at first sight, and the same happened with Umar.
He had seen Maria in the canteen eating with her friends, but he was unaware of what had happened. He kept looking at her for a long time. If Waqar had not called him, he would have kept looking at Maria like this.
Now, he was looking for an opportunity to talk to Maria. But if Maria met him, then he would speak. Maria studied in the girls' section, and he studied in the boys' section.
"For one thing, the college has made separate sections for girls and boys." He started cursing the college administration. His cursing did not help him; if he had seen Maria, he would have returned without speaking. The same thing happened today when he saw Maria while leaving the college, but he couldn't talk to her. It was time for him to go to the academy, so he got up, picked up his bag, took out his bike, and started walking.
At the academy, his heart was not set on learning. Everything seemed incomplete to him everywhere.

Lying at night, he kept thinking about how to meet Maria. How do I talk to her? Suddenly, an idea came to his mind; he picked up his mobile phone and opened Facebook to search for Maria.
This is the only platform that can find even the oldest person. Now, who still needs to create an account on Facebook? Even 80-year-olds have made arrangements and are chatting with their old friends.
He typed Maria in the search bar, but many IDs with the name Maria came up. He kept searching and getting worried. Finding the desired title for Maria was challenging among so many Maria name IDs.
"I don't know if she has created an account here, and if she has, how can I find the original ID?" I don't even know what her profile pic is; it's so hard to find here." A last hope was Facebook, which was broken and unable to see Maria.
In the morning in the college again, his eyes were on Maria. Maria was sitting on the ground reading. He did not dare to talk to Maria. He wanted to go toward her, but an unconscious fear crept into his body, so he entered the classroom without speaking.
After college vacation, when he reached home, he picked up the same mobile and opened Facebook. As soon as he opened Facebook, his eyes widened; he couldn't believe it; there was Maria's friend request with a message. He anxiously started reading the news; it was written in the statement.
Dear Omar! I know you love me very much. Your eyes cannot hide from me in college. I want you to accept my sweet request, too." Umar got mad when he read her message; he took the friend request and started writing a reply message to Maria. He couldn't find Maria on Facebook, but Maria found him.
