The next generation wouldn't know the joy of making new friends by approaching them,they just search and "add" them.

REVISED

***Abby's point of view***

"We'll call you. We'll call you. Why not hire me right away? My credentials is pretty good, yeah? And my hair is beautiful today. What's wrong?" I said annoyed as I step on the escalator going down at the mall where the job fair happen a while ago.

Until now no one called me to confirm when should I start. All company I've applied like language teacher and translator didn't call me yet. I have a bigger chance in the online translator company that I've first applied but they didn't call me for the final interview.

I'm supposed to be eating right now when I pass by a boutique. I entered and I liked one of the shoes. It's a new arrival. "God, my birthday is coming but I don't have any gift for myself. Is there any birthday gift job for me? I'm tired of being poor."

I did everything to budget my expenses. We always eat vegetables to lessen our expenses. My savings will soon be gone.

I bit my bottom lip as I look at the shoes. "Don't let anyone buy you, huh? Hope your still there when I get a job and there's a sale."

"If you like that one, why don't you try it? I think it would look good on you."

I jumped as I heard the voice of Harry. I touch my chest when I discovered he's behind me. "Harry! You scared the hell out of me."

"That's just the effect of coffee."

No. It was simply Harry's effect on me. Whenever I see him, it's impossible not to stare to him and my heart will beat fast.

"You were too busy looking at the shoes. What's up? Do you have a job?"

"Hmm... Soon," I said then smile. Sooner or later I'll lose my hope to live coz there's still no one calling me. I can't tell Harry about this coz I know he will try to help me.

He get the shoes. "This fits you. Why are you just staring at it? Try it. Wait, what is your shoe size again?" He look at the saleslady. "Ms, one size of seven and half of this one, please."

"Ms, no need!" I said to the saleslady. I grab the shoes on Harry then put it back to it's place. "I won't buy it though."

"You won't buy it. You will just try it."

"I won't buy it. Why bother to try?"

If I have some money and there's something I liked, I will buy it right away after I tried it on. No questions asked. "Also I don't like the shoes though."

"It's expensive for you coz it's a new arrival. You try to fit it and I will buy it for you," he quickly said.

"No, Harry. I won't allow that. You know that..."

He laughed. "What? Your usual hang up again? That when you like something, you will buy it on your own?"

"Yes. And I won't change my mind. If I want the shoes, I will buy them with my own money." If he bought his girlfriend anything she like and she's with it, but not me. Coz I'am not his girlfriend.

"I will still buy them for you. Your birthday is close. Three days from now, right? It's not bad If I'll bought you a gift."

I stared at him dumbfounded. "You still remember my birthday?"

"Of course. For a long time you've been my girlfriend. It's impossible that I will forget it."

"I thought you already forgot." For almost a year we've been together. And if he still remember a lot of things about me, so do I. I still remembered almost everything about him.

"And I won't forget that your only accepting gifts when it's your birthday. So consider it as my gift."

I can't say no. I'am still in a high to know he still knew a lot of things about me. And he still know the size of my feet. I'am glad he still cared. Even though we're not together.

"The truth is I'm not planning to celebrate my birthday. I don't have any reason to celebrate after all."

"You are a wonderful person, Bee. And you should celebrate your birthday. That's the only time for you to be happy, right?"

If I'm with you, why not? But I couldn't voice it out. It's just an illusion that he will be with me on my birthday.

He was about to call the saleslady to get the size of the shoes when there's someone who hug him. "Gotcha!"

"Maddie!" said Harry shocked.

"So, you came here to visit me, huh?" Maddie said with a wide smile. She didn't even remove her hands on the waist of Harry even though there are a lot of people looking at them. "Did you miss me? That's why I left my work to see you." She look like the manager of the boutique.

"No," said Harry. "Actually, I was just walking around until..."

I was just staring to this girl who's hugging Harry.

She's pretty but, her makeup is too thick. She look older than Harry. Is this Harry's girlfriend? They don't look like a couple. They don't fit together.

Maddie felt that I'am staring at her that's why she look at me from head to toe.

"Hi!" I said. "You must be Harry's girlfriend."

"Yes, I'am. And who are you?"

"I'am Abby, his old friend. It's just a coincidence that we bumped in this store." I held my hand to her. "I'am glad I've finally met you."

She smiled bitterly as we shook hand. "I don't know that he has a girl friend. You are not familiar. You don't hangout with them. Don't you?" (hangout with one direction)

"I never met them in person."

"Ahh that's why I don't know you."

So if you don't hangout with the boys meaning you can't be friends with Harry? Fuck you!

I'm fucking annoyed at Maddie for how she was that CLOSED to Harry. Inches from him. Gosh! I didn't do that to Harry when we were a couple. And we never like public display of affection.

I think that Harry changed. After all, I'am not his girlfriend anymore. Maddie is his new girlfriend.

"Well, I have to go now. It's nice seeing you, Maddie. Bye, Harry!"

As in good-bye.I don't have a chance to him even in my illusion. It's all gone when I saw his new girlfriend. Ouchhhh!

I immediately get out of the boutique. I didn't wait for Harry to speak up. Great! He forgot my birthday gift because he saw his girlfriend. Damn you!
