Chapter 27: Lia Came To Pick Up Anindya
After taking photos, they walked to the cashier to pay. They chatted leisurely as they walked.
"This time, I’ll treat you, Anindya!" Julian exclaimed confidently.
Anindya stopped walking.
"Seriously!?" Anindya asked with a delighted expression.
Julian stopped walking and nodded his head at Anindya. Anindya was immediately delighted, but she quickly changed her expression, remembering that she’d promised to treat him.
"B-but, after school ended, I was the one who promised to treat you to dinner" Anindya said shyly while playing with her fingers.
"No need!, As a guy, I’m the one who should treat my girlfriend, right?" Julian replied confidently.
Hearing that, Anindya changed her expression and said,
"Yeay!!" she said with a happy expression and tone.
After that, they continued walking towards the cashier. Upon arrival, Julian faced the cashier, while Anindya waited to his right.
"How much is the total, sis?" Julian asked the cashier.
"Total Rp. 220,000" replied the cashier.
Julian took his wallet from his right trouser pocket.
"Hmph! This time I’ll pay for the food since I brought a lot of money for things like that" Julian thought to himself, smiling confidently and a glance at Anindya who was waiting beside him.
When Julian opened his wallet, he was surprised to find he only had Rp. 150,000.
"W-what!, there should have been Rp. 250,000!" Julian thought to himself with a shocked expression.
Julian suddenly remembered that, he had used the money to buy something in the game.
"Ahh!, Shit!, I forgot!, I just buy a diamonds in game!" Julian said to himself with a shocked expression.
Julian turned to Anindya, then said,
"A-ano, Anindya..." Julian said, looking at her with an awkward smile.
Anindya looked at Julian, then she asked
"Hmm?, What’s wrong, Julian?" Anindya asked with a little smile.
Julian turned his gaze to the other side, then said
"M-my money... Not enough..." Julian replied with a regretful expression and tone.
"Haa... I knew it..." Anindya said, sighing and holding her forehead with her right hand.
Anindya opened her bag and took out some money.
"Alright, let me pay for it" Anindya said, walking to the cashier.
Anindya handed the cashier her money.
"Here’s the money, sis" Anindya said, handing it over.
Anindya handed over Rp. 250,000.
"Okay! Please wait a moment," the cashier said, taking the money.
"Okay~" Anindya replied.
While waiting, Anindya turned her body towards Julian, then she put both her hands on her waist, then she said
"Listen, Julian!, I don’t want to spoil you any longer. I don’t want you to become a Stingy Guy when we’re on a date!" Anindya angrily said with a serious expression and tone.
"O-Okay, I-i understand!" Julian said with an awkward smile and a regretful tone as he placed both hands on his chest.
Anindya smiled and said,
"Good!" Anindya said softly.
"Excuse me, sis, it’s finished. Here’s the receipt and change" the cashier said, handing the receipt and change to Anindya.
Anindya accepted the change, then the cashier said
"Thank you for visiting!" the cashier said with a smile and a polite tone
"Okay, thank you too, sis!" Anindya said with a smile and a polite tone
"Come on, let’s go" Anindya said, putting her arm around Julian’s right hand.
As she exited Columbus Cafe, Anindya said,
"Hey, let’s take a photo on the bridge across there!" Anindya said, pointing to a bridge connected to Columbus Cafe.
"It’s already this late, Anindya" Julian said with a worriedly expressions.
"Come on, let’s just take a quick photo!" said Anindya with a firm expression.
Julian gave in and complied with Anindya’s wishes.
"Haa... Okay, okay" Julian said with a sigh.
They took ten photos at that spot. After they finished, Julian and Anindya looked through the photos.
"Uwahh, You took so many photos..." Julian said with a slightly surprised expression and tone.
"Why?, Isn’t it normal to take lots of pictures with your boyfriend?" Anindya asked, looking at the photos she’d just taken.
"Haa... You’re just like a little girl" Julian muttered with a sigh.
"Hmm? Did you say something?" Anindya asked, smiling at Julian.
"Let’s go home, that’s what I was saying" Julian said, making excuses.
Anindya immediately pinched Julian’s waist gently but enough to make him wince.
"Ouch! That hurts!" he exclaimed softly, trying to keep his voice down because he was in a public place.
"Hmph!, Can’t you just relax a little!?" Anindya asked with a sullen expression and an annoyed tone.
Julian immediately held Anindya’s head, Anindya was shocked. After that Julian said
"I told you, we have to go to school tomorrow. Stop acting like a child, yes my honey" Julian said, smiling sweetly at Anindya.
Anindya immediately fell silent, her face slowly starting to turn red like a boiled crab because she saw Julian’s sweet smile and the word "Honey". Anindya lowered her head, then she said
"A-alright, let’s go home..." Anindya muttered softly.
Julian immediately removed his hand from Anindya’s head and said
"Okay, let’s go home now!" Julian said as he walked towards the parking lot.
Anindya immediately raised her head when she heard Julian walking away from her.
"Ahh, wait for me, Julian!" Anindya said as she followed Julian.
As soon as he reached the parking lot, Julian remembered something.
"Ah!" said Julian, surprised.
"Hmm? What’s wrong, Julian?" Anindya asked, still holding Julian’s right hand.
"I just remembered. Our houses are in different areas" Julian replied.
"No Problem, I’ll stay at your house," Anindya said with a smile.
"You can’t, Lady Anindya!" Lia replied, who came from behind the two of them.
"Lia?!" Anindya said, surprised.
"You have to go home now, because I just told your father that you were looking for some night air" Lia said while putting her right hand on her waist, looking at Anindya seriously.
Anindya frowned, her face immediately turning into a frown.
"Liaaa... I’m an adult, I don’t need to be constantly supervised!" Anindya said with a sullen expression and an annoyed tone.
"Your father said, if you don’t want to come home, I’ll have to pick you up by force" Lia said firmly.
Julian, who had been silent, finally smiled and spoke to Anindya.
"Alright, Anindya. We can meet again at school tomorrow" Julian said while stroking Anindya’s head gently.
"But..." Anindya said with a sad expression and tone.
"Don’t worry, we’ll go on a date again sometime" Julian said with a faint smile.
Anindya, who had been sad, suddenly regained her enthusiasm.
"Really?!" Anindya asked excitedly.
"Of course!" Julian replied with a faint smile.
Anindya let go of Julian’s hand, but she suddenly thought of something.
"Wait a minute, what vehicle did Julian use to go home?" Anindya asked Lia.
"Don’t worry, I’ll use DriverMobile" Julian replied.
"Don’t!, What if you get robbed in the middle of the road?!" Anindya said with a worried expression and tone.
"I’m not a girl, i can defend myself" Julian thought to himself with expression flat.
"Don’t worry, I’ll take Julian in the car," Lia said.
"Ehhh?!" Julian and Anindya said, surprised.
