ROMEO & JULIET

Silence like this made Juliet feel uneasy. He had no idea what Romeo wanted. The man seemed to hesitate every time he stole a glance at her.
Several times Juliet finds Romeo's expression fickle. Like the guy wants to start something but doesn't know how to start it.
Did Romeo feel guilty for his attitude the other day?
Or does the man just want to assert their status before they tie the relationship further?
I don't know. Juliet is reluctant to second-guess Romeo's thoughts. He did not want his feelings to be as shaky as before. For Juliet, Romeo and himself will never be us.
"If no one wants to talk to you, I'll go back to my room." Juliet breaks up. Standing there for longer would only make the two of them look strange. And also sad.
"Thank you for the flowers." There was no movement from Romeo. And Juliet did not want to bother with what she would and wanted to do. That's none of his business.
"Jul." Romeo held Juliet's hand. But not too tightly. Like the man knew very well the boundary between them.
"Why?" juliet sounds pretty. "Will you come with me to California?" Juliet took a long breath. It turned out that this question was what made Romeo look hesitant.
He thought the man wanted to say something more important. It turned out that he just wanted to ensure his willingness to follow the man back to where he came from.
"Lo calm down. After I became Lo's wife. I will follow Lo's request, as written in our contract. But on condition. You can't interfere with my life after we move there. I hope, all just in accordance with the contents of the contract that we have agreed." Juliet doesn't want to expect more.
After all, for him two years would not be long. He could pass time after time in peace. Then secretly divorced Romeo.
Juliet also believes, if Romeo has planned everything carefully. So they just need to go through everything calmly. Without disputes and also without crossing the limits they have set.
Romeo releases Juliet's hand. "Jul, I mean.." Juliet turned to Romeo. "Lo calm down. I must be sure of my word. As Lo's wife." Juliet spoke calmly with emphasis at the end of her words.
"Gue went back first." continued Juliet who immediately turned around. But just a few steps back Juliet stop, "O, yes, I just want to rest. So I'm not going to join you for dinner. I'll see you at the altar." Juliet's voice sounded cold.
This kind of attitude is safe for both. And Romeo realized that this was how their relationship should have been. But why does his chest feel uncomfortable? is something wrong?

"Bro.. Hey.." -..." Romeo was a little surprised to find James in the same hotel he was staying at.
"Hey, dud. What are you doing here?" Romeo squinted his eyes in wonder. James punches Romeo-joking in the stomach.
"You're a really bad friend. But I'm not like you. Of course I will come when my best friend will get married." said James, successfully make Romeo's stomach churn.
"How can you?" James laughed a little. "When I visited your house. Uncle said you were taking care of your wedding here. And as a good friend, of course I have to come to give you my blessing." James smiled while embracing Romeo's shoulder.
"Who knows about this?" romeo's face looks horrified. Her marriage is one that she wants to keep secret from her friends. But now of course he has to rethink about it.
"We all know." Romeo's face paled. "I'm kidding." James continued. "Only me. I kept it a secret like you kept this news from me. Whatever your reasons, I don't want to overstep your authority as a friend." either Romeo should feel relieved or alert. He could only smile stiffly when he heard James' explanation.
"Thanks dudo. I'll tell you later. Not now." said Romeo, sighing.
"Well, since I'm here, where's the bride-to-be? I can't wait to see who the girl who can conquer you is." James laughed a little. Romeo did the same.
"You can see it tomorrow. Not now."
