Synopsis

Every one of us should believe in love and should believe that love never ends.

Love has no end. Moreover, we should emulate that, when we love someone we should love them endlessly. Your love to your family, your friends or a certain guy or girl should be eternal. If you do that, they will do the same in return. But will Sapphire be loved in return too?

*****

When Sapphire met Toby, everything was magical. Her world with her newfound friend was spherical. They conversed every time there was a pretty chance. They talked of Toby's experiences and it was full of tatty prance. They chatted through the internet often and that made Sapphire fell in love with Toby.

One day, when Sapphire posted on her Facebook wall that she was deeply in love with someone, many commented including Toby. He asked Sapphire whom she was in loved with. Sapphire did not answer Toby's question at first but eventually due to his determination to really know whom that was, Sapphire blurted the truth that she was in loved with Toby. It was nerve-racking for Sapphire because she doesn't want to be rejected. Toby was cool with it. And their communication was still ongoing.

In due course, Toby got back in a relationship with his ex. It was so heartbreaking for Sapphire. She'd been trying to hide the pain when she saw Toby holding hands with his boo, her classmate Irish. She doesn't even know what to say, she was petrified. Therefore, she just pretended everything was fine. She doesn't want to let the two to see her cry. So, she turned her head and wiped it dry. She kept her tears inside to show how strong she was. Because in this game of love, she was wrong and she blamed herself about it, she should not have let it lengthened this badly.

Then she realized that there were so many obstacles to get Toby's love. And that she was just running around in circles. Therefore, she decided to step off the scene because she doesn't want to feel totally debacle. Sapphire was hurt and she was played in some way. She prayed that the pain she was feeling would go away. She let go of her love towards Toby. It was not easy though, some of her days were even hazy. However, she has to overcome this phenomenon in her life.

By the way, she felt horrible things when she loved him. So now, she has no regrets to leave Toby. Sometimes it does not matter why relationship fail, what matters more is figuring out how to say it's over without completely crushing the person you once loved (and possibly still love).

The next day, she talked with Toby.

Sapphire said, "It's not my lost that is your itch you changed me over a crap bitch." She sounded like rapping. She was so hurt.

Then suddenly Irish came from somewhere.

"So you were the pathetic mistress of my boyfriend," she retorted.

"Mistress?" Sapphire asked with conviction, "I was never a mistress. And I never wish to tug-o-war Toby with you. I will never fight with a low class, don't worry."

"How dare you!" she screamed, "So, what is this news I heard about?" Irish asked.

"What news!" Sapphire replied, "oh, that you made out with your ex then he left you. So now, you come running to Toby to be saved? Is that the news you're talking of?"

Irish's face turned red, she looked very ferocious.

"Stop this nonsense." Toby screamed.

"Nonsense? You two are nonsense." Sapphire answered, "By the way I thank you for nothing. You deserve each other, you're both nothing."

Then, she ran and sobbed her last tears for that love. Sapphire has the right to act that way. She was hurt because of love, because of Toby.

After several weeks, Sapphire recovered. Toby reached out to her. He then apologized for all the wrong things he said and done. On the other hand, Sapphire apologized to Toby too and then they reconciled.

Toby dumped Irish because he knew that she was having two more affairs with guys he doesn't even know. It was a very bad breakup, a nightmare for Toby. However, once you begin to realize that bad breakups are simply mistakes that one should learn from, in order not to make the same errors again, or to learn better on how to deal with future heartbreaks. Then you begin to appreciate that breakups aren't so awful at all, just another one of life's experiences to teach you a valuable lesson, to groom you to your full potential as a beautiful person just like what happened to Toby, he chose to be that beautiful person.

Toby and Sapphire started chatting again. They both retrieved the friendship that they had lost. Now, they're good friends again. Friendship is really stronger than just a love relationship. They treat each other as best of friends. Or maybe lovers soon. Only time can tell. The important thing is that they found authentic love with each other. Today, they started to send sweet te amos to each other again.

There is nothing shallow about authentic love. It's not like a magic wand we whip out and wave over a heartbreak with a whoosh, hoping all the pain will go away. Real love has staying power. Authentic love is tough love. It always chooses for working through. It doesn't cop out because the sea gets stormy and rough. It is resilient and fibrous. While the world around us gives the opposite counsel, love stands firm and confident.

Love is a cycle. Love is an endless expression of appreciation. Love is free so you don't have to have money to purchase one. Love should shower the world. Love is given without limit. Love every person around you endlessly. Love never ends. Love is te amo.

THE END
