"The restaurant’s atmosphere is really nice" Anindya said, holding her chin in her hands, and smiling sweetly.
"Y-yeah, you’re right" Julian replied.
"I still can’t believe I’m dating the most beautiful girl in school" Julian said to himself, looking at Anindya, who was smiling sweetly.
"Oh yeah, I haven’t asked about her boyfriend yet" Julian continued.
"A-Anu, Anindya—" Julian said, not yet finished.
Before he finished, the waiter suddenly arrived with their orders.
"Sorry for the wait. Your food and drinks, sir and miss" the waiter said in a friendly tone.
The waiter placed the food and drinks on Julian and Anindya’s table in a friendly manner.
"Enjoy!," the waiter said in a friendly tone.
"If you need any help, please call us" the waiter continued in a friendly tone.
"Okay, thank you!" they both replied.
The waiter left Julian and Anindya, and they both began to eat their food and drinks.
"Hmm, Anindya only ordered salad and fruit?
Anindya, who was enjoying her salad, looked at Julian and asked.
"Hmm? Why aren’t you eating, Julian?" Anindya asked with a confused expression.
"Ahh, I-I’ll eat!" said Julian, surprised.
Julian began eating a piece of meat. As he ate, he glanced at Anindya. He found her watching him with a sweet smile.
"W-What’s wrong, Anindya?" Julian asked, looking at her.
"Hehe... It’s nothing, I just wanted to see how you eat" Anindya replied with a chuckle.
Julian’s face started to redden, and he chose to continue eating despite Anindya’s gaze.
Anindya ate her salad while staring at Julian. After they both enjoyed their meals, they chatted to decide their next destination.
"A-Anindya, where are we going after this?" Julian asked, looking at Anindya.
"Hmm... there’s a place I want to visit tonight" Anindya said, touching her lips with her index finger.
"Where? Aren’t your parents looking for you?" Julian asked.
Anindya didn’t answer the question; she simply led Julian away and headed to the next location.
"I think it’s time," Anindya said.
"Let’s pay and go straight to the next location" Anindya said, taking Julian’s hand.
Anindya pulled Julian’s hand and headed to the cashier.
"How much is the total?" Anindya asked the cashier.
"It’s Rp. 550,000, ma’am" the cashier replied.
"W-what! I didn’t expect it to be that expensive, even though we didn’t order much!" Julian said to himself, shocked.
Julian loosened his grip, turned around, and immediately checked his wallet.
"H-haah! I only brought Rp. 100,000" Julian said to himself, worried.
Anindya, seeing this, smiled and said to the cashier.
"I’ll pay with this" Anindya said, pulling out a black credit card with her name on it.
The cashier took the card Anindya handed her and was immediately shocked by the color and name on it.
"Th-this name?!" the cashier said in a surprised tone and expression.
The cashier quickly swiped the black card.
Julian, who was crying over his wallet, was startled to hear the cashier raise her voice. He approached Anindya and asked.
"What’s wrong, Anindya?" Julian asked Anindya.
"It’s okay, I’m just paying for our order," Anindya replied with a small smile.
"Ah, I’m sorry, if I’d known it would be , I would have brought more cash," Julian said, apologizing to Anindya with an uncomfortable expression.
"It’s okay, I understand" Anindya said with a small smile.
"It’s done, ma’am. Here’s your card" the cashier said, handing Anindya the black card.
Anindya accepted the card and said.
"Thank you!" Anindya said.
Anindya looked at Julian, took his hand again, and said ɴᴇᴡ ɴᴏᴠᴇʟ ᴄʜᴀᴘᴛᴇʀs ᴀʀᴇ ᴘᴜʙʟɪsʜᴇᴅ ᴏɴ 𝗻𝗼𝘃𝗲𝗹✶𝗳𝗶𝗿𝗲✶𝗻𝗲𝘁
"Let’s go, Julian! Let’s go!" Anindya said, dragging him along.
"O-okay!" Julian replied.
"Thank you, ma’am. Please come again!" the cashier said in a more polite tone than usual.
Julian was confused by the cashier’s more polite behavior than the first time. Julian and Anindya left the restaurant and started walking hurriedly, holding hands.
"A-Anindya, where are we going? Why are you in such a hurry?" Julian asked in a confused tone.
"I’m worried they’ll run away," Anindya replied softly.
"They? Ran away?" Julian muttered, confused.
After 20 minutes of walking, they stopped at a building. It turned out to be their destination. Julian looked up at the building’s roof. He was surprised to see a sign on the building; it was a Nightclub.
"Let’s go in" Anindya said softly.
"B-but we’re still in High School, Anindya" Julian said nervously and with a surprised expression.
"Fufufu, Relax, Relax" Anindya chuckled.
Anindya grabbed Julian’s hand again and said
"Come with me. I want to show you something," Anindya said with a small smile.
Anindya led the way, dragging Julian’s hand. When they reached the entrance, they were stopped by two nightclub guards.
"Stop! Children aren’t allowed in here!" the guards said sternly.
Julian stared at her, slightly tense, and looked away, but Anindya insisted on letting him in.
"We’re not children," Anindya said.
"Then show your ID," the guard said.
Anindya took out her black card and handed it to the guard.
