ROMEO & JULIET

Juliet chooses some of the books she needs for reference materials on her thesis. Juliet had also previously canceled her initial intention to delay her thesis trial until next year..

What his friends said was right. However Juliet wants to delay, she has no good reason to do all that. Juliet can't escape her destiny. Because everything has to happen as it is.

"It seems like my life is no better than this novel." Juliet puts one more book in her basket.

In addition to the reference books needed as thesis material, Juliet also bought up-and-coming novels as one way to reduce saturation. Juliet is one of those women who loves to read.

Therefore, he more often uses the time in the room struggling with books. After getting tired of books, Juliet will turn her attention to romantic movies from her favorite sakura land. That's how Juliet's life has been. Sounds pretty ordinary. Juliet also admitted that.

...❄️❄️❄️...

After selecting approximately twenty reading books, Juliet also chose several themed books about marriage.

Juliet is well aware that the wedding she is going to have is just a camouflage that Juliet and Romeo created themselves. Marriage is lived for the freedom and benefit of each of the two parties.

But Juliet still has to know what marriage means. According to Juliet, with her brilliant brain at least she should know the basics of a marriage that she will live later.

That way, even though Juliet only plays a wife, at least Juliet knows how to behave like a good wife in front of her big family and also in front of the big family of her husband.

Juliet doesn't want to mess up what she and Romeo have planned so far. Juliet has memorized exactly what to do as written in their agreement. It's just that for other matters Juliet has to learn on her own.

"Huh! Why should I bother with gini? It will be more difficult than the national exam. Juliette. Juliette. I also play agree. Don't think what Lo? ribet right? Where Romeo is really cool again. Damn my life." Juliet grumbled alone.

...❄️❄️❄️...

A hand touched Juliet's shoulder so carefully, "Hi, Lo here too?" Randy stands behind Juliet with an unexpected expression that they will meet again. Juliet has to turn her back to see Randy.

"Rand, what's going on here? looking for a book too? very tumben." comments Juliet who showed no other expression than a questionable face in addition to an intense gaze to Randy.

"Yes. I'm looking for this book." Randy showed me a book that read 'Good management' by one of America's most famous young businessmen. Randy is different from Juliet.

And ever since they became friends Juliet has known that Randy is the son of one of the leading textile entrepreneurs at home and abroad. Juliet nods, and Randy smiles sweetly accepting Juliet's response to her.

"Lo want to buy all that? not less? here I help bring you." Randy takes over Juliet's trolley containing a pile of books.

"Lo's intention is to become a wife to buy this book too." Randy laughed wryly as he looked at the references to Juliet's handpicked books that were in the top pile.

Juliet tells Randy, "Don't tempt me. I just want to make some effort. So the wife is not easy. I also need to prepare my mind well."

"Not to mention I also have to learn how to behave well in front of the family of my future husband. Because I don't know anything, that's why I'm learning."

"Instead, laugh at me again Lo." Juliet throws an annoyed face. Randy is used to saying things that criticize Juliet's actions. Not just today, even from the very beginning they met.

Although Juliet doesn't have to explain to Randy what the real purpose of doing all that is, to be honest Juliet just feels that someone should know if she's been trying - at least for the contract marriage.

"Lo likes your future husband Lo?" randy said a little carefully. The question came out smoothly from his mouth. Not without reason, Randy still feels unwilling if the girl he has secretly loved will belong to someone else in just a matter of weeks.

And just this time, Randy did not want to keep a regret in his heart. It's possible that with him expressing his feelings at the moment, he still has a chance to be together with Juliet. Although it seems impossible.

Juliet is speechless, she doesn't know how to tell her current feelings. Especially if it has to do with Romeo. Romeo is not a bad man. Romeo also promises not to force Juliet with their marriage.

Their marriage was just a show. In the marriage contract Romeo sent, Romeo would release Juliet if their marriage had lasted for two years.

After that Juliet has the right to choose how to live her own life. Romeo won't hold it. Because they don't love each other. Even Romeo fully guarantees not to touch Juliet once they are married.

And most importantly, if Juliet meets someone who later makes her fall in love, Romeo will release Juliet completely to pursue her own happiness. So how does Juliet have to describe her feelings about Romeo?

"My husband is good. Like I said before, my candidate Good looking really hard, did you see that, on campus?" Juliet smiled blandly.

"The people are friendly too. I am polite to my family. He is also an only child, so rich papi child so the effect is adult Banget. Very observant of his manners and rich hardworking as well. That's why I don't have a reason to refuse this match, right?" Juliet answers Randy with what she can think of Romeo.

For the rest, Juliet still does not know how a real Romeo. The man has his own mysterious side. And Juliet is reluctant to deal with Romeo as before. Let them be like this, living by their own affairs.

Hearing Juliet Randy's explanation immediately stopped his steps, "Lo does not want to consider other prospective husbands Jul?" Juliet looked at Randy puzzled by the question, "I mean Lo?"

Randy took his hand off the trolley and walked up to Juliet, "I mean, if there's another guy who really loves you compared to that guy who's being betrothed, do you want to consider other prospective husbands to be a companion to Lo's life?"

Juliet's getting confused, "Gue.." Randy is one step closer to Juliet, "You know for a long time that I like Lo?"

Degs...

Juliet's stuck, "Lo..?"

Randy squeezes Juliet until Juliet's back sticks to the bookshelf,

"Gue's had this feeling since we first met Jul. I just don't want to realize my feelings because I don't want to ruin our friendship."

"And that's a stupidity that I just realized. And since I know that Lo has been fooled, how often I stay and realize myself if Lo already belongs to someone else, I still can not escape Lo."

"Because I realized, my feelings are not new feelings for a month or two, but feelings that I've kept for four years Jul. And my feelings never changed for you. I love you."

Randy is her best friend, and the man has just confessed his feelings to Juliet. While Juliet herself has no more feelings for Randy. Because Juliet only considers Randy as a friend. Not more.

Is this some kind of help to get Juliet to cancel her marriage to Romeo? can he assume that? because all this is so coincidental.

But what difference does it make if Juliet chooses between Randy and Romeo, both of whom are men Juliet doesn't love. If Juliet had chosen Randy, Juliet would not have been happy. Randy was neither the right choice nor a solution for Juliet.

"Rand, Lo why the hell, Lo is so weird." Juliet tightens. His mouth feels dry. Juliet looked at Randy with a moving bead, "I mean, I don't know. I can't. You know that we've been in office all this time, and I.."

Randy's face showed a sad expression, he looked at Juliet with the look of a desperate person, and Juliet did not know what to do at a time like this.

He should be happy. Why does he feel guilty. Juliet really doesn't want any awkwardness between her and Randy. Feelings like this will damage the friendships they have established.

For Juliet, Randy's feelings as well as their friendship are just as valuable. Juliet doesn't want any of them to be corrupted after all the sudden confessions that come out of Randy's mouth.

Juliet pushes Randy's chest softly until Randy puts some distance between them, "Rand, so sorry. But I really can't. I already have a fiancee, you know that? And I'll keep the same my choice."

"I'm sorry. I hope we stay like this, as friends. I may be selfish. I'm really sorry." Juliet passes Randy feeling guilty, then takes over her trolley.

Randy himself is still unmoved. Randy let Juliet go. And Juliet is hoping that Randy won't catch up to her.

That way Juliet can assume if what happened before is just a fantasy. Because for Juliet, they were best friends. And as long as it stays that way.

...❄️❄️❄️...

Juliet moves her half-foot into the pool water. He has been sitting there since a few hours ago. There were so many thoughts that suddenly filled Juliet's head.

Not only about Randy and his love confession is a little surprising, but also about his marriage to Romeo and also about his future later.

Juliet is completely confused by her way of life. Juliet thinks she can live her life like in the dramas she often sees. Finishing education.

Get job. Meet a man and fall in love. Enjoy life and be happy forever. Juliet thinks her life will be like that. But the reality is beyond expectations.

"Hey what else?" Lily approached Juliet and sat down next to her sister. Following what Juliet did, Lily also put half her foot into the water.

"Not to mention my brother." Juliet answers Lily with a face that looks moody while looking down lethargic. Looking at Juliet who was losing her enthusiasm, Lily gave a small smile. "It's for you." Lily gives a large box with maroon red ribbon to Juliet. "What?"

Lily smiled with raised eyebrows, "Dear for you." Lily replied briefly. "What's it for, brother?" Juliet opens the ribbon and opens the box to see the contents. "Make my wedding."

Juliet was flabbergasted not believing what she had just heard, "What? the marriage? brother Bastian? seriousness? When?" juliet said half-screaming. Lily nodded to justify the new thing Juliet revealed.

"I know that you are also busy taking care of your wedding to Romeo. That's why I didn't tell you on purpose. We're getting married next week.one week ahead of your wedding." Obviously Lily.

"Oma same opa tau sak?"

Lily nodded again with a smile, "I can still be very calm. My sister wants to marry Gini. Just now I want to protest why I have to marry first from brother, it turns out that brother is already ready all rich gini." Juliet feels a little disappointed for not doing anything for her sister's wedding.

"We've been planning a wedding since six months ago. Other than the opa request that requires me to marry you first, Bastian and I have indeed been unanimous in our decision to continue our relationship to the next stage, which is marriage." Lily explained so calmly, while Juliet's feelings were getting mixed up.

"What about your wedding preparations? is everything okay? And what about your feelings right now. You don't look well."

Just this time someone asked how Juliet felt. And that person was her own brother, making Juliet's feelings even more palpable. Without being able to hold on any longer, Juliet's tears flowed so profusely in a matter of seconds.

"Sister..." Juliet whines and cries in front of Lily. Lily tries to calm her sister while hugging Juliet. "It's okay. Cry it." Lily patted Juliet's shoulder gently. It was also the feeling that bound Juliet all this time gradually unraveled.

"I don't want to marry Romeo. I don't love him. But Juliet can't resist. Because it's an opa request. Juliet doesn't know what to do. Juliet's scared, brother." Juliet is still sobbing in Lily's arms.

Lily knows very well what her sister feels, Lily had experienced it first but fortunately it was when she also met Bastian, "I don't know. If you do feel objection, it is still not too late to ask opa to cancel your marriage Juliet." said Lily gave a solution.

"But what if the same opa Oma is disappointed with Juliet sis? Juliet doesn't want to disappoint them. Juliet wants them to be happy. Lagian Romeo is also in the same rich position Juliet. Romeo could not refuse either. How should we, brother?" Juliet cries bitterly. He had no friends to change his mind.

That's why Juliet has been holding everything alone. But look how tormented Juliet is. He can't continue everything like this.

Lily could understand how her sister felt. They have lived without parents. And the only ones to replace that important role in their lives were Adam's opa and Oma Dena.

It was natural for her sister to feel that way. It's just that, despite wanting to make their opa and Oma happy, the happiness of his sister is still the most important.

"You sure about your decision July? Don't want to persuade opa once again? If you want, brother will accompany you. It is not too late to change the decision. Brother will support you." persuaded Lily.

He really wanted to do something for his sister. And persuading Adam's opa to change his decision is the only way to make his sister happy.

Juliet releases her embrace to Lily. This time with a calmer attitude, Juliet wiped the tears that were still wetting her cheeks.

"Hem. Juliet is okay, brother. Juliet will accept whatever the consequences of this decision may be. Juliet doesn't want to mess with Oma. Juliet can take it all. Brother don't worry. Juliet can definitely find Juliet's happiness."

Lily smiled as she rubbed Juliet's wet cheeks, "Sister's little sister is more mature now. Pray that you can achieve your own happiness. Whether you marry Romeo or not. Everyone must find their way."

Hearing Lily's words, Juliet felt the rope wrapped around her chest one by one begin to come apart, and all thanks to the support of people who cared about her. Care about Juliet's happiness.

"Juliet also prayed that Bastian's older brother and sister would live happily until Oma's wealthy grandparents and opa. Happy until death do you part."
