BALCONY

Juliet sat munching on the sandwich her mother had prepared in the morning.

She brought out her sketchbook and began sketching the landscape oblivious to Romeo arrival.

Unknowingly, a smile lit Romeo face when he saw Juliet and slowly, he approach her. Looking at her drawing from behind.

“You are quite an artist” he said startling her.

“Am sorry, did I startle you. I didn’t mean to” he added when he saw the look on her face.

Without saying a word,she began to pack her things but he stop her by taking hold of her hand.

“If you are leaving because of me, then don’t” he said still holding her, making her hear his thought once again.

* I don’t want her to leave, how can I convince her to stay?*

Juliet pull her hand out of his just so she wouldn’t hear more of what he is thinking.

“As long as you don’t talk to me then I won’t leave” she said, sitting back on the bench.

“I don’t think I can do that since I want to apologise for what Louis did earlier. He tends to joke around and…”

“You don’t have to apologize on his behalf. I know people like him who joke around and am use to it” Juliet said, starring at her hands.

“Do you mind me sitting beside you?” Romeo ask.

“You can. It’s not like it belongs to me” She said picking up her sketch book to continue her drawing.

Whenever she picks up her book to draw, she often ignore everyone and everything around her.

She do this just to get rid of people she doesn’t want to talk to and soon enough this guy will take the hint and leave too.

But surprisingly, he didn’t leave. Instead, he stayed, watching her draw.

She pulled out her phone and put on her favourite music, then she put it her ear piece, hoping he will take the hint now and leave but once again, he prove her wrong.

“What are you listening to?” He ask, pulling out a piece so he can listen to it.

“*Imagine Dragons- Believer* Gosh! Have been a fan of theirs for a long time, are you also a fan?” Romeo ask and Juliet gave a nod.

“That’s great. Am glad we have something in common” he said before he could stop himself and when he realise his mistake, he deftly change the topic.

“Can I see your drawing, if you don’t mind” he said, taking the book from her before she could stop him.

Juliet watch him flip through the page, going through her drawing until he got to a sketch she drew of Darren, her sister friend.

“Who is he?” He ask and immediately, she took the book from him.

“Why are you hiding it? Let me take a proper look ” he said trying to take the book from her and once again, they made skin to skin contact making her hear his thought.

* Is he her boyfriend? I hope not cause I wouldn’t like seeing her with another guy*

On hearing that, Juliet stood up.

“I have to go” she said taking her things and leaving the rooftop in a hurry.

HOSPITAL ~ CAFETERIA

“So you know that am not really dating Graham?” Judy ask the minute they found a seat.

“Yes. I had mistakenly found out about his relationship with Judy two months ago.

He didn’t want to tell me since Judy swear him to secrecy but I got the truth out of him” Nina inform.

“He really love0 her but she only cares about her career” Nina added softly.

“Don’t you think we should tell her? If she knows that Graham is at the hospital, she will definitely come look for him” Judy suggest.

“I did reach out to her home on my way here but the employee there inform me that she already left for China and will be out of contact for a while ” Nina reply.

“Oh no! What do we do now. I can’t keep on pretending to be Graham girlfriend”

“Actually, that’s what am here to talk to you about” Nina began, taking a deep breath.

“Remember the doctor said we shouldn’t force his memories to return and that it might cause harm if we do” Nina said and she nodded.

“Well, have come to the conclusion that it will be best if you keep pretending to be his girlfriend.

I know it’s a hard thing for you to do but am scared that something bad will happen if we tell him the truth.

So, will you keep pretending to be his girlfriend?” Nina ask, leaving Judy speechless……..
