Work as secretary of a cellular company. He has a lover named Carlos. Maria was so happy when she came home and hugged her mother. "Mother, Carlos will ask me tonight and we'll meet in the city park, where it first met .." Maria told her mother. "How are you sure son?" "Of course I'm sure, because we've planned it, and Carlos said tonight he'll propose me .." "Then hurry you off and change your best clothes .." Maria rejoices the night she's been waiting for as they date more than 3 years now to be the end of their love story. *** *About Martin* Martin is 25 years old. Playboy man and born from a millionaire family. The clock shows at 7 pm. Suddenly the door to his room sounded a knock. Martin was asleep, he woke up and opened the door with his face in his face. An aide of his father was seen in front of the door. " Why is it? Disrupt people sleep.. !!! " "I'm sorry sir, your dad is waiting in the living room for a family dinner." "Tell him, I'm down in a minute .." Martin said not against. The aide left, Martin smoothed his crumpled face because last night he had just left the club and came home at 7:00 am, after a neat he went straight down to meet his father at the dinner table. Together with his mother and younger sister Sheila. He just sat there. "This is how you raised your child? Morning so night, night so early morning. "The father said firmly. "Never mind dad, Martin let's eat." Half-heartedly martin ate. But just tasted a little breakfast. He had disappeared with his father's face. Martin drove off in his BMW car along a path full of colored lights. The city will celebrate Independence Day in a few days time. He just said in the heart. "My dad's rich, for what to do. Seven descendants will never run out. " A girl called her. Apparently the girl is his target for tonight, They seem busy busy talking together, Half way. *** *Back to Maria* Her mother was standing at the door. Maria turned on her vespas. Complete with the best outfit. "I go first yes .." "Why do not you ask to be picked up." Asked his mother. "Nothing mom, Carlos went straight home from work. Later it gets stuck. Besides, I want to go alone. So meet there. " "Yes, you are. Be careful, ok." Maria also drove his motorbike while imagining what will happen in his most beautiful day. *** *Back to Martin* Martin seemed to laugh, the girl made beautiful words in his ears. He always remembered if he could give anything wanted by the girl who liked him, he was willing to give money, gems or gold diingkan. As he walked, he did not notice the red light above him. a vespa that drove in the green light. Martin was surprised, his car drove. Crashed into the vespa until it bounced. 10 meters away. What he remembers, a girl strangely rigid in the street. His heart was worried, whether he should see the victim. Or run away, but he knows. When she gets closer, she will create trouble with herself amongst the crowds that begin to approach the victim. He also decided to run away from the incident. *** *About Carlos* He waited without any clarity of the garden. His heart worried, he tried to call Maria repeatedly but not at all lifted. An hour passed, her heart began to worry. She thought, Mary rejected her. Until he called last time and got a strange voice, the voice of a man who said that the girl who owns the hendphone is being treated in an emergency room room. He heads straight for the hospital, saving the engagement ring for Maria. When she arrived, Mary's mother appeared to be standing with a worried cry. *** *Back to Martin* He began to realize, many witnesses who saw it with his car number. He told his father about the matter. Dad asks her to be responsible, but her mother refuses. he realized his son could be in jail if he surrendered. Money does not mean for his son to escape from Prison. One decision right then. Martin had to go abroad. Run away and make an alibi with someone else in the car, with his father's money paying someone else to pretend he did something he did not do. Day after day missed with the problem between the three. Carlos is saddened by his lover's condition. Maria never knew where it was, Martin ran away with a sense of upset and guilty. *2 months passed* *** ![IMG_20180108_080456.jpg](https://res.cloudinary.com/hpiynhbhq/image/upload/v1515377571/fdngsqndvy01eng4lsm2.jpg) *** Maria is still in the hospital. He began to realize, but his legs have been declared missing. He must have paralysis in both legs. Carlos accompanied his lover. Providing the inner support and strength that Maria can not imagine to live. Maria also tried to accept the fact he is now disabled. Martin is in Australia spending his time drinking and drinking to relieve his anxiety. *6 months passed* Maria stood for the first time from a wheelchair. Carlos supported his legs to walk. Though heavy in his heart. He realized he would never become normal. Martin was getting anxious, he wanted to go home. Her mother told her wait until the next 6 months. Only one thing he wanted to ask "Mother how did the victim I hit?" "He's not dead, he's alive." "Thank goodness, but I still want to know." "You'll know when you get home, you better stay there until the case is closed." *1 year passed* Maria began walking by moving the wheelchair through her hands. Carlos invited him to meet his parents. What he got when he was sitting on the living room sofa. She overheard what Carlos's mother had said. "I do not want a paralyzed and handicapped son in law." "Mother why say so, after all she is the same Mary, just like when I brought her first." "Different. She's a crippled girl .. not the pretty girl you used to be downstairs. " Both spoke, and Mary heard. When they are conscious. Mary had said one thing that was so hard for her. "I'm sorry, from now on I'm going to let Carlos go forever." Carlos tried to stay, but eventually he accepted Maria's decision. Martin has returned after he gets the assurance that his case has been settled with another man who is willing to replace himself in prison. Mary tries to work normally. He will not be rejected in his old office, but with a limp leg and sometimes a wheelchair. He feels like a useless man, can only bother anyone. When you want to ride the escalator or climbing the ladder everything feels heavy. Every night he can only cry, see the condition, his mother aware of the state of his daughter, his heart was sore but can only hope god gives power to the child only after Mary's father died. Martin managed to get what he wanted to know, about the victim who always imagined himself. And the source of the information says about the girl. She got Maria's office. He immediately headed for the office which turned out to be part of his father's company. At that moment he saw Maria looking up the stairs. His heart was moved to get closer. Help push the wheelchair. "Thank you .." Maria said to her. Martin paused, his heart so sad to see Mary so beautiful but so disabled by it. " No problem." "What office do you work on this floor?" " 3rd floor." "You?" Maria asked back. Martin is confused to answer Mary's question, he never worked until finally he made up a story. "I just work here, on the second floor," " Oh, yes..:" "I wish I was on the first floor, I certainly do not need to troublesome people. So it's not good. "Maria said. They arrive at the escalator. Once again Mary thanked the man.Martin came home at that moment with a sad face. He wanted to cry to see the sin he had committed to Mary. He went home to his father and asked for a job in the office. His father was so surprised by his son's attitude but accepted Martin's decision. He became direct director of the company. In one day he decided to move the office where Maria worked from floor 3 to 1. Every day she always looked at Maria when she could, she had never experienced such a difficult situation in her life. He decides to approach Mary, trying to say the one honesty he can not speak at the moment. About the things that make Mary the way it is today. Day after day, they got closer. Martin made a lot of convenience in the office for Maria to be able to use his wheelchair freely. He ate with Mary in the cafeteria he had never before. Remembering the noble mind of Mary, a humble person and accepting the reality of her life as a disabled girl. One day out of boredom, Martin invites Mary to eat out. "Eat with me outside? Is not it your fault that the director is here? " "The director should not be eating with you." "No, I'm just afraid of bothering the director when walking with me. This city is not friendly with a wheelchair, I do not want to bother the director when walking with me until I have to push this chair. " "Take it easy, let's say what you want to eat, this command from the Director should never refuse !!" " OK. I want to eat Sushi Tei, I really have not eaten there for a long time. " "Then let's eat." Hearing Maria wants to eat sushi tei, Martin immediately asks his father's aide to book all the seats in the restorant just for them. When Maria arrived at sushi tei, she was surprised to see that the restorant was just the two of them. He only heard Martin's last word. "Eat everything you want .." *** ![IMG_20180108_081506.jpg](https://res.cloudinary.com/hpiynhbhq/image/upload/v1515377404/ypiwndsdfxfwhqtirj3p.jpg) *** They also eat with gusto. Martin so enjoys his condition with Maria, that they do not realize such as directors and employees. "What do you want Mary." "I always ask a lot of things, but unfortunately it never happened. " "Then tell me, I want to know .." "Really you want to know?" "Of course I want to know .. come on." "I want to be able to walk again .." Carlos was stunned, his heart sad and his face drooped. At first he thought of giving Mary a present, whatever Mary wanted. Now hearing the difficult request, he was sad. "Is there anything else you can say besides?" "No, I do not want to ask for it. You know last year when I had asked for a sudden it never happened .. " "If you can, what did you last year ask for?" Maria bowed, she realized last year was so gray, she asked Carlos for her hand and all really failed. "I can not say, it's been the past, if you? Tell me what you want? " Martin approached Maria, her eyes serious. "I do not want anything but just to see you smile. That's enough for me. " Maria laughed too. They missed the meal so much. After lunch, Maria went down to the loby. Just then Martin was about to carry Maria's car body. She accidentally saw Carlos with another woman passing by them. Maria paused to see her former lover, So did Carlos. Only Martin and Carlos's lover do not understand what makes them look at each other. Carlos was walking and getting into the car. Mary sees Carlos away from her. When he was in the car, he cried. Martin was so confused. And ask what happened. Maria also said one thing about last year and hope. "I want to get married, but my lover can not because I've become disabled .." Martin just fell silent, his heart increasingly helpless. Martin began to understand one reason for being a man on the whole. He gave a gift to Mary, a gift that might be too valuable to Mary. A diamond necklace around Mary's neck. Martin realized one thing, he started to love Mary. There was something he had to say at dinner with them. On the dining table with red candles burning, Martin expressed love to Mary. "Are you sure you want to be the lover of a disabled girl like me? "I promise in my heart that I really want to be part of your life. Mary, whatever happens to you, you are the girl I want in my life, now and forever." *** ![IMG_20180108_080711.jpg](https://res.cloudinary.com/hpiynhbhq/image/upload/v1515377368/p4ewupzhdkdlryrm4oxq.jpg) *** The sentence made Mary so happy, even though she was skeptical at first. In the end Martin actually proved one thing to Mary. He really loves the girl. They are officially dating. Martin's family who never saw Martin so changed in life to welcome his son's joy so happy. Sometime when at night, Mary felt the power of God, suddenly her toes were able to move. He begins to realize one thing, if he begins to feel his legs back after a long paralysis without moving. Martin never understood. Why is his body getting limp. Until finally he fell ill. He was stranded in the hospital. Mary came and made the family martin so surprised. "Who is she?" Asked Martin's mother to Martin who lay while Mary was with her. "This is my beloved mother .." Martin's family fell silent. He never thought that his son has a disabled boyfriend. Everyone could guess if, of course, the martin family could never accept their relationship. But Martin did not care. At that time, after being discharged from the hospital. He really got the worst gift of his life. Martin is HIV positive. A bitter reality in his life, whether he was a girl who sleeps and transmit the disease to her. He understands his life as the end of the world. But on that occasion, he kept fighting for life. Mary tells Martin that his feet are moving. Martin saw it as a miracle, he went to check on the state of Maria's foot and the doctor said the normal recovery is about 20 percent. Beautiful news for Maria, but unfortunately doctors say surgery is needed to make her legs become normal because there are some parts of the veins on the feet of maria that must be replaced. Martin decided to take Maria to the best hospital in the world. Maria refused at first but this is what happened the night before it all happened. "Maria, I always remember your wishes last year. You want to walk. God has listened to your dream, now is your way. You have to come with me go. Do this for your happiness, do not think about the cost because I can help. " "But you're too good for me, I do not want to be indebted." "You know, I have a desire request as well. You want to know? "Explained Martin. "OK say." "I want to see you walking and I can be happy with you after that and ..?" " And what?" "I'll tell you that you're coming with me to heal your feet," " OK.." They set out. The operation went well, but the exhausted martin situation made it worse. But the fatigue was paid with the maria spirit who wanted to get well and walk. All happened, everything the doctor did was successful. Maria recovered, she began to walk slowly. Martin's faithful guard is always there beside him; Until that day arrived. Maria is alone with martin. In a beautiful place, martn's face was so pale. Martin went on with what he was about to say to Mary just before Mary was at the surgery. "I've forgive you since we met ..?" Said Maria who makes Martin confused. "Are you sorry for what?" "You do not need to say anything, I have forgiven and loved you with my heart." "Maria, how do you know?" "I will never forget the incident, just before the incident I see you. Though I can vaguely know that you are. " "I really regret Mary, forgive me .." "Forget everything Martin. I always accept this as fate. " "Maria there is one more thing you want to know .." "Tell Martin?" "I'm HIV positive .." Maria paused. And he said one thing to martin. "When you see me as a crippled girl, you never feel embarrassed or fearful when I trouble you. I was so touched, every human being has a side he can not avoid about the fear of disaster. But you're different Martin, you make me strong, therefore, even if you have HIV, it's time for me to do the same thing! " "Why do you want to? You're not afraid of me. " "Because this is our destiny, whatever happens to you. You are a part of my life that will always be there. I will always be by your side.." Martin and Mary married a few months later. A year later Maria was able to walk without a cane, two years later. They give birth to a child with normal magic without any illness. Three years later, Martin died of his illness. As Maria says : "No matter what our circumstances and whoever has difficult circumstances, do not feel you will be hard on them. Because we can not choose anything in our lives, apart from being responsible for what we did in the past. But believe me the future will be beautiful if we try to accept our situation.
