Completing the final assignment report is probably a pretty tiring job for a college student.
So also for Romeo, because this is quite time-consuming. He spent more time on campus than he did with Juliet.
It's a very unfortunate thing actually, but what can be done. Since he is determined to forge a real relationship, Romeo is also determined to quickly save his studies as soon as possible.
That's why since morning Romeo has been on campus to complete his duties and also attend tutoring classes.
James who is different majors always come to Romeo classes when his college eyes are over. That's why, when he saw Romeo class had been dissolved James immediately approached his best friend.
"Hey," James touched Romeo's shoulder and then circled it. "I heard you guys moved out of your uncle's house, is that true?" James took the place so that the two could sit face to face.
"Hem. Thas right. Juliet and I moved into our house." Romeo said while tidying up the contents of his backpack. The unusual behavior gave a sign to James.
Romeo who usually always be careful when talking about Juliet, especially about the relationship between them actually answered as if it was a common thing to discuss.
"We?" James gave a mysterious smile. The young man also raised one eyebrow waiting for an explanation from Romeo.
Noticing the strange smile from James Romeo also raised one eyebrow. Is there anything strange about our word? "Yes, our house. What's again? My house and Juliet's. We live together so, I guess.."
James further magnified his mischievous smile, "Yo broo... It seems like something has happened between you, and I'm sure the answer is yes, right?" James guessed exactly. Usually, a friend's premonition is never wrong.
And sure enough, a faint smile appeared behind Romeo's lips. He was ashamed, because it was known so easily.
But Romeo has no intention of hiding the truth about the relationship between himself and Juliet. Especially to James.
"Well, you could say that." I'm Romeo. Strange gestures begin to be shown by his best friend, and James has often seen this. Like someone who is in love.
"We decided to start all over again" Romeo said. "And I think I'm lucky to have married Juliet."
"Well, what did I say." Sela James was a little surprised. "This is what's called a feeding weapon, my friend. You reap what you've sown." Because from the beginning, James had expected that something like this would happen.
Since meeting Juliet, James knows that his best friend will not win with the cliche bet they agreed. And it turned out that everything was even going faster than he expected.
"I didn't know if marrying Juliet would make me feel this way." Romeo smile. "You know for yourself how I am, don't you? I was a little confused as to how to say it." the man looked up, then pulled down his gaze.
"I think I'm starting to fall in love." or maybe even long before, Romeo had felt that feeling. Every time I spend time with Juliet, Romeo always thump. Even though he tried to hide it.
But now, it seemed like he could no longer dodge. He had forgotten his original goal of marrying Juliet.
"Then what's your plan? are you going to announce this news to our friends and admit that you lied before."
"I haven't thought about it. My job right now is to prove to Juliet that I really like her." That's the most important thing for Romeo.
Their relationship is close enough, even closer than before, but for Romeo, all this is not enough to make Juliet have the same feelings as her.
Romeo had to show his feelings even more.
"It's okay, man. You have to fight to get what you want. That way you'll appreciate it more." As best friend, this is all James can do. Giving support.
...Beeping..Beeping.....
...From: JAJ...
..."I went out to shop. Ps. Lunch is ready if you get home early."...
Romeo smiled as he read the message on his phone screen. Then he also typed a reply quickly, too,
...Reply: ...
...Why not wait for me. Though I want to go with you. 😒 ps. I was with James. And it looks like we're going to have lunch together....
Next to Romeo, James silently smiled as he watched his best friend.
When Romeo was cool with his phone, James's phone also vibrated. He also got a message.

...Somewhere.....
A troubled Juliet carrying her groceries is waiting for a taxi in front of the intersection.
But before the taxi came suddenly a car stopped in front of Juliet, shortly after Caka's open car Juliet looked at the wheel, it turned out the owner of the car was Randy.
Randy, who recognizes Juliet, rushes out of the car, "Lo want to go home?" randy asked, looking at all Juliet's groceries.
"Yes. I am waiting for a taxi again. But it's like the taxi's on busy." said Juliet still frowning watching around. Maybe because it's still just Juliet doesn't know where the taxi waiting line is.
"I'm going to take it. Until tomorrow you won't get a taxi if you wait here" said Randy immediately took over some of Juliet's grocery offices.
"Seriously Lo?" Since then, no taxi has approached him. "Hem. This isn't the line. I showed him his place. Come on."
Before taking Juliet home, Randy invites Juliet to lunch together. Coincidentally, Randy was out to fill his stomach.
And here the two of them, having lunch while talking. "Where's Lo's been working here? rich is Lo at home?" juliet asked while taking a quick glance at Randy.
The man smiled after sipping a bit of his drink. "My news is good. Although at first I also felt uncomfortable, but lately I have become fond of living here. At least here is not too jammed like in Jakarta." replied Randy.
For him this kind of reason was the safest reason he could say. Although actually, he started to like this place after their meeting some time ago.
"When you do it yourself? Will you stay or go back?" Randy asked back. "Oma's News is the same, I haven't heard from them for a long time."
"Oma same opa again vacation to Korea. Not very cheated anyway. I was told to go here while they were on vacation together."
"Yes, you'll just stay put."
"Yes, too, but Males really goes alone. Especially now that Romeo was so busy." hearing that, Randy smiled faintly.
"Gue's happy to see Lo happy with Lo's marriage. Thank goodness." said Randy. Although still harboring feelings for Juliet, but Randy can still be happy for the woman.
Juliet nodded with a happy twinkle on her face. "Hem. I also initially did not expect. But well as Lo said, thank God everything can be fine gini rich." although he himself did not expect it, but Juliet really felt relieved.
After finishing lunch, while out of the restaurant Juliet meets Jessie and her friends.
"Juliette. Hi..Who are you with? alone?" hello Jessie who at that time had not seen Randy.
"Hi, Jessie." said Juliet wrongly. Because he did not know the woman very well, and he also did not expect that the woman would greet him like this.
"I'm not alone." Juliet is looking for Randy, and by then the man is already walking towards her. "I'm with my friend." Juliet smiles as she introduces Randy.
"This is my best friend, Randy" Juliet said. "Randy, this is Jessie. College friend Romeo."
"Hi. I'm Jessie. It's good to see you." After shaking Randy's hand, Jessie reverts back to Juliet.
"When you come back to play with us. Since you're Romeo's cousin, we'll treat you well, too. I hope we can be friends too." Jessie touched Juliet's hand.
Randy frowned. He can catch if the look on Juliet's face turns uncomfortable. But seeing Juliet who does not respond to the words of the girl in front of him, Randy did not make a sound.
"Then I'll go first. See you later, Juliet."
"Yes. See you later."
Juliet smiles awkwardly at Randy, but realizing Juliet doesn't want to talk about it before, Randy doesn't ask. It's none of his business anyway.
Plus Juliet's silence. It had already explained something to him, that there was actually something that the woman was covering up.
"Come on. I'll take you home."
