Zelia is now officially 6 months at the Glade. They are just waiting to see who the Creators will send today. No one expects who will come to them. Unless Creators are really evil, they will send children below 13 years old.

After Gally confessed his feelings to her, there was no awkwardness between the two of them. It seems they have become even closer. They can't be separated anymore so they tease the two even more. Zelia didn't pay attention to it because she knew in herself that he was really just friends with the man.

The girl was right here in the Armory while she was fixing something. Almost everyone was still eating lunch so she busy herself while waiting to some Gladers finished their food. She just finished eating her lunch and went here to avoid the noise from the Gladers at the kitchen.

"Hey, Zel." The girl looked up at who called her and smiled when she saw Maggie.

This girl is tough like her. Even though she had only been here for a few months, she noticed that there was still hope in her eyes that they would be able to get out of the Glade. There's one time when Maggie told her about the person she likes. The way she's telling a story, there's a hint in her voice that she's happy.

"Hey, Maggs, what's up?" Zelia asked and stopped getting ready to face her friend.

"I hope I'm not disturbing you since I have something to tell you. I feel like you'll be happy too." The girl frowned, curious as to what she would say.

"You're not disturbing me since none of the Gladers have returned yet so I can't still continue what I'm going to do." Zelia said and Maggie seemed to breathe a sigh of relief. She gave the girl a smile before she spoke.

"Do you remember the day that I told you who I like?" Zelia nodded while still frowning.

"And? What about it?"

"Well, it turns out the feelings are mutual."

Zelia was loading on what Maggie said so she reacted a little late. The girl frowned at her and was immediately replaced by a smile and joy for her friend.

"Wait what? How? I mean, when did you confess to Winston? What did you tell him?" She didn't expect the question to come out of her mouth one after the other. Zelia felt Maggie's hand holding her, who was now smiling.

"Slow down, Ms. Keeper. Calm yourself, first and I'll tell you everything." The girl took a deep breath and waited for what her friend would say next. She was just so carried away by her feelings that she almost couldn't be wait to know about how it happened.
