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
The car was speeding across the freeway, getting further and further away from the city towards somewhere. In the car the driver looks annoyed with a serious face until he hits the innocent steering wheel to vent his anger. All the agendas that had been scheduled long ago fell apart with just one word of orders from superiors. Even though he feels unhappy, there is nothing he can do but act as he is told. “Hello, dear... I'm sorry, it seems that even today I can't keep you company. Really I felt bad...” Asked Argus panic also feel very guilty. “It's okay Argus, I told you I could take care of everything myself."July replied that she didn't take any issue at all with Argus' absence in preparation for their wedding. Today is their appointment with the WO. There are many arrangements that July has to make with various parties to prepare for her wedding despite wanting to make the party simple. Starting from the wedding hall, makeup and bridal fashion, WO, catering and so on. “Really
July side by side with N entered the wedding hall, the gaze of all invited guests was directed at them in every swing of steps towards the altar that was getting closer. It's the craziest day of July's life, marrying the stranger she just met 30 minutes ago. Who could have thought that July really did the blind wedding according to her original plan. That is, marrying a man whom she did not know at all before. Exactly what is done on a blind date. But that was not the main concern of July at this time, all she had in mind was how the wedding ceremony went smoothly until the end and finished without any obstacles. So the determination implied in the look of July's eyes staring at the wedding altar. Invited guests who see July face expression may think ahe is just tense and nervous because has to say wedding vows. In front of the altar, in the presence of all the invitees July must say a vows to stranger. July experienced a moment of inner struggle when she had to swear allegiance, wh
It happened a few days before the wedding.. In the middle of the wedding preparations July and Argus walked. Although the news of their marriage is a secret from various parties, Minerva can find out immediately because her obsession still cannot let Argus return to July. Argus has divorced her, but the divorce is still process by laws. Minerva refused Argus 'request for divorce before the court, because in the eyes of the law Minerva was still legitimate as Argus' wife. How angry Minerva when she got a report from his henchman who always lurks Argus activities that the man who is still her legal husband was going to marry his ex-girlfriend during college named July Foster. Minerva is determined that no matter what, she must be able to prevent the wedding from happening. And a chance like the blessing of the answer from the goddess of luck appeared in favor of Minerva.

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
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,
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
The party is over, the fun is over. July and the group must return to their busy daily routines, to their respective homes. “Kate, let Joe take you." Said July as soon as they arrived at the apartment. “It's okay, I can go home by myself.” Being in the city is certainly a lot of ways back home. And Kate doesn't feel comfortable with Joe right now. He has not yet given an answer about Kate's invitation to meet. “Why? Let Joe take you home." "No, it's okay.” When Kate insists on refusing, it feels strange that July keeps forcing her. While Joe kept his mouth shut, didn't seem to care. July thought things could go smoothly for both of them when July left them last night. Joe left the two friends, not going upstairs but somewhere. Meanwhile Alastor had gone away earlier, going upstairs with all their luggage. Kate waited for her taxi to arrive. “You two, really, what happened last night?" "There was nothing, July, really nothing happened.” “So?” “Our talks just didn't go smoot
Argus and Minerva lock themselves in hotel rooms all the time, all day along. As she persuades him to go out enjoying the facilities, filling their weekend time. Argus thought it would be safer and more comfortable for him to stay in the room, to avoid the eyes of anyone who might know them. As long as Minerva doesn't act like asking to do weird things with him in the room. The conversation is still going on, since yesterday they got there until days change. Minerva never tired of convincing Argus, pleading, asking in various ways. she gently touched the back of Argus who was sitting on the edge of the bed. In a low voice she tried to turn the hard heart of the man by her side. “If we don't get back together. My parents must have taken this baby as soon as born.” “Since I told you, I will take legal action.” He is firm on his stance. “Do you really think you can win against them?” “As long as you agree with me, help me, then there is still a way.” Perhaps Minerva's big family wil
Joe and Kate finally arrive at the resort after going through a dramatic reunion of their past stories. As soon as the car enters the yard, July and Audie are ready to welcome Kate's arrival. Warm hugs, cheerful mood instantly dominate the situation. While Joe still hasn't left his car, he takes the initiative to help Kate deal with her personal belongings. Unload the suitcase and take it inside. While the women are still cool exchanging news and connected with chat. “How was the trip? Must be tired huh?" Ask Audie to show attention to who has been so happy to see Kate since the wedding day. Kate couldn't let go of Audie's hand grip that was still tightly holding to move freely. There was a bit of awkwardness but Kate didn't try to dodge. “No Auntie, better than I thought. It's fun, probably because I don't travel much.” “Ohh really? Thank God..” “You came earlier than I thought!" July exclaimed, surprised. “Ah, that's why you really look like you just woke up July.” Kate teased
It was only yesterday that Joe resolved all the guilt that rested in his deepest heart to July. But Kate's circus speech reminds Joe back to himself who was determined to throw everything for the sake of being with July as family. Joe looked at her angrily. "If you get bored and play with me this way, think my situation is funny to you—“ Kate couldn't have been more receptive to Joe's treatment. “Why are you so tense and anxious? Ever since we met, your prickly attitude bothered me first.” Joe was at a loss for words to reply to Kate's remark. It was then that he realized what Kate was trying to point out about his own mistakes. Kate didn't stop there. “I should have asked. Are you like this because you're still bothered by—“ “No. Not at all." Joe hurriedly cut the word. His mind was filled with a burden that he could not share even with July. Strange Joe or indeed Kate who easily manipulates him so that Joe in a short time can be triggered emotionally like this. They haven't se
The drama last night. After Alastor is made to accidentally test patience by July, the two of them end up spending the first night together since knowing each other and living together. They both stayed up all night until dawn. The two were still too late in the room as the rest of the family prepared to start the day. Audie came back early among the others last night, enough early rest to keep her energetically fit this morning. With ingredients from yesterday's shopping, this morning Audie has mastered the kitchen to make a simple menu for their morning meal. "Morning, Auntie..” Joe's friendly greeting that has never been missed every morning since staying with Audie and Ben. “Good Morning!” Audie saw that Joe was looking very neat this morning. “You want to go?” “I'm going to get Kate.” “Oh, right." Audie forgot. “Fortunately, Auntie has made breakfast once. You have to fill your stomach before you go.” Joe nodded with a smile. Then Ben comes along with Pansy, quite obviously
