Alastor petrified on the spot. The current state of affairs is strangely disorienting. He was supposed to be the one standing in front to protect July but what happened this time he was at a loss for words, unable to explain himself let alone defend or protect. At that moment, his confidence was gone in front of her family. With his status in the agreement on paper, Alastor is nothing, nobody who has the rights as Joe accuses him of. “You! Who the hell are you?" Joe was so intent on intimidating Alastor who had a pale face and a blank look in eyes. The man stood still though his shoulder was pushed hard, rudely by Joe but remained unmoved, silent. July couldn't stand to be there anymore, let alone see Alastor who turned helpless. Just as a guilty defendant is sentenced after a trial, unable to do anything. July pulls her cousin away from there. Right now the most important thing to do for Alastor is to calm Joe down, reassure him. "July! I'm not done talking to him! Hey—” “No, Jo
Whether this was an opportunity or a test, Joe could no longer tell which action was right in this situation. All he knows is that he wants to be with her under any circumstances. So his decision to accept July's request was not because he was on her side but so that he could stay by the side of his beloved woman. "Are you really going to stop this? He's leaving after your deal ends?" It's hard for Joe to trust July anymore. "Why would I lie about this matter to you after all you know the truth." July felt helpless. "Nothing happened between you? Is it true that only by agreement, you and the man are living a fake relationship?" "I'm telling the truth." July wants to cry already but she snaps it away. The same case for Joe actually. He tries to look strong till the end, at least in front of July right now. "I will keep your secret from Auntie and Uncle. When the time comes, you'll have to end all of this bullshit according to the agreement, July." "Really! you gonna do it for me,
In front of the principal's meeting table with the ranks of teachers and staff for the umpteenth time again conferred on the topic of the sustainability of their school's fate. The atmosphere was heavy and serious, the headmaster even stood in front of the window to breathe fresh air, feeling tired from the discussion. Efforts to save the school fete almost dissolved it by changing the middle name in the administrative process stage. Starting from the new school year, their school will officially become a mixed public school which was originally Technical High School. But then another problem arises, transfer students who become the hope of a new breath in their school are even problematic types of outcasts. Principals are faced with the dilemma of whether to accept the students into their schools or reject them when they really need the capacity of the number of students that must be added to meet the minimum standards of the requirements proposed by the administration. “Mr. Principa
Minerva was on her way to an address, although the late night did not prevent her from meeting soon. She may appear to be unaffected by the school's decision, but the girl is also agitated, frantically searching for a way to solve the case that is dragging on her name. All the calmness of the face, the silence in her just a defensive bastion deliberately installed in front of friends. Fortunately, the case that happened at this school was only the secretary of her parents who knew the details of the case. If this news reached her parents, she would have received a punishment with the freezing of all facilities provided by now. Including mastercard, the use of mobile phones, internet facilities at home, as well as the imposition of curfews and restrictions on activities outside the home. Therefore, Minerva must solve this problem as soon as possible before her parents realize. About the reason for the move to school, she can make up stories to cover up. That's why Minerva dares to pay a
Joy, happiness, and cheerful faces filled the atmosphere of the party room. Every guest who was present in the warm conversation, how this moment they had been waiting for a long time. The marriage of their relative, July Foster, who they thought had no interest in romance. This celebration is limited to only relatives, close acquaintances, and co-workers of the bride and groom. But there is one different thing, on the invitation cards and party room decorations. There is not a single portrait of the groom and bride, even the names of the groom and bride are can be seen. Every guest could only wonder if it was part of the party concept. In the bridal waiting room, July anxiously awaits the arrival of Argus, who can't be contacted till now. The waiting room door opened. But what appeared from behind the door was not the face of the person she was waiting for. Her's cousin and her aunt approached with worried faces but tried not to panic. Because they wanted to keep July's heart at p
July hardly has free time for lunch, because she is too busy and focused on work. The woman is indeed famous for a brilliant career and perfect work, workaholic people around label her. But now how could her aunt make a promise without consent, wasting her precious time on something that July hated the most if she could be honest."But how can Aunty just tell me now after choosing my partner and setting a date?" July protests in a video call connection with her aunt who is quite far apart oversea."I doesn't want to hear protests, defenses, or whatever that's your excuse anymore, dear."There are several reasons and one of them is that makes July deliberately decides to live far away alone. Escape from all the demands of her extended family. Even though it was the sake of kindness and form of love and care for her, July was sick and tired of all that. "You have to come and meet him, I doesn't want to wait any longer for you to get married!"True, the biggest and most pressing issue
July leaned her head back against the steering wheel. All along she didn't mean to say that to Mary when Argus was with her. "W-what did I just hear…" Argus still had a hard time believing it. "July…" His eyes lit up demanding an explanation. Just a moment ago he asked July to marry him but got a cold reaction. It was clear that hopes had soared again. Meanwhile, July felt stupid because it looked like she was licking her spit.Honestly, July has been dreaming of marriage for a long time, but in front of her love, she never shows it. Showing no interest in starting a household, not for no reason. All because her current chosen partner—Argus, whose July's big family relationship and him has a bad history. In other words, it is impossible to get the blessing for their relationship.How could she bring the topic of marriage in front of the whole family by introducing him as July's future husband?"My love July, say it! Am I wrong? It is now I'm misunderstood of anything? Misunderstood
All the members of July's family have gathered, and they are connected in a group video call. The meeting via long-distance is to negotiate July's decision, which will eventually marry but with prior conditions. The problem then arises, why does she have to mention the conditions, even more so, it is very unreasonable to be accepted by the rest family member."Mary said you put a condition on us about your wedding plan July, what is that condition?" Asked her uncle from father side. Compared to other members who are elder in July's family, he is the youngest and thinks rationally in dealing with problems."What does it mean?" The reactions of the elders were different."Condition? Is Mary getting senile to talk like that?" While this time, July's paternal aunt does tend to make harsh comments, even though it's not the intention, just that her genuine way of speaking and attitude."Everyone calm down, please speak one by one." Asked the youngest uncle earlier. Indeed, when there is a f
