Chapter 3 First Meet

Julia fix her appearance to once again in front of the mirror Thanks to suggestions from her best friend named Hana and also suggestions from her other two friends, Fani and Viola, Julia goes on a date wearing the best make-up and dress she has. her friends insist on seeing Julia date and kiss a man.

They want this girl who is famous regardless of romance to taste the sweetness of first love and kiss.

for the first time, the Peterson girl wore make-up and wore a short, above-the-knee gown. Even though she has never been on a date, let alone have to beautify herself and wear the beautiful expensive jewelry typical of most teenage girls.

His mother used to tell Julia to be more daring to expose her beauty, and it's not that Julia didn't follow her advice, it's just that she was more comfortable wearing ordinary clothes - like a long shirt and baggy jeans.

to be honest, Julia had never worn such a short dress. She has only worn long dresses, and she only wore them twice. His cousin's sister's wedding and also her best friend's birthday, Hana.

the dress she wore today was the result of a search at the mall she did with her best friend. Even with this make up kit for the first time, she bought it. Hana was amazed, because Julia kept asking questions about how to use the various facial ornaments.

In the end, after being taught how to apply basic make-up, Julia is ready to go on a date with her first love. A very exciting wait.

julia turned once in front of the mirror, causing the white dress with pearl ornaments on the underside to expand beautifully. The hair, which she used to freely share, is now tied up high using an expensive hair stick, with jade on the top.

one word for his current appearance, captivating. The combination of a beautiful face with a sweet dress style makes Julia's aura of beauty evaporate and create an attractive image.

However, there was something that made Julia a little uncomfortable.

The first impression Julia got after she finished changing into a dress was ... strange. Julia is not used to her new appearance. This is definitely not the style she likes in her everyday clothes. julia, who is used to wearing loose trousers when she leaves the house, feels a little uncomfortable when wearing clothes that make her unable to move freely.

Not to mention the makeup on her face at this time. although still quite natural and inconspicuous, but to be honest Julia still didn't like him. The girl prefers to use moisturizer and put powder on her face. Even on the lips, he only uses ordinary lip balm. however, because these are all requests from people who care about their appearance on a date. Inevitably, Julia agreed to their request.

When else would Julia decorate herself with looks that are often worn by girls her age?

Usually, he only wore casual unisex clothes that sounded casual. But this time, she had to dress like any other young girl.

Julia looked back at her top-down dress with a judicious look. Would Jacob like her look like this? would he praise Julia well? Even talking about the man with the sharp eagle eyes made Julia suddenly feel very nervous.

Obviously this was the first time for Julia to meet someone of the opposite sex, to meet a man. not accompanied by anyone, just alone. Since entering a special education school for girls, Julia never interacted with boys anymore. Papa and his brother are not included in it.

The cell phone rings for a moment, an incoming message alert. Julia rushed over to check it out. a message from Jacob that said, 'I'll be waiting for you in Testa's garden' made him feel nervous again and at the same time fluttering.

Julia immediately grabbed the bag and came down from the room, about to say goodbye to her parents. "Papa, Mama! I want to go out with a friend first!"

charlie who was sitting watching television turned to his daughter who was sitting on the floor putting on her shoes. "Where, honey?" he asked the child.

"To the garden of Testa, Pa," said Julia in the middle of putting on her high heels. he hastily put on the crocodile skin shoes that he used to go to that particular event.

Meggan, who had just finished showering and getting dressed, immediately went to her child and husband who were gathered in the living room. "Where are Julia going, honey? Why are you in such a hurry?" Meggan asked her husband. Charlie changed the channel he wanted to watch, then replied, "To the city park with a friend."

Julia, who had finished putting her shoes on, stood up. Meggan then walked over to her daughter and watched Julia look from the child down. "Mama's very beautiful child this morning," he commented, smiling sweetly.

Julia straightened her collar carefully, then smiled a broad smile. "Is it true?" he asked happily. "Thank God! That means I look good. I'm afraid I look ugly, Ma," said Julia doubtfully.

"No, you are very beautiful, honey." Meggan patted her daughter on the shoulder and said, "Be careful on the way, go home before dinner.

"Fine, Ma!" Julia replied cheerfully. His smile grew wider. "I just walk, no need to be escorted," he said as he slung his handbag over his shoulder. "I'll go first, Ma, Pa!"

"Yes, be careful, honey," said Charlie from his seat. Julia headed for the door, Louis, who had just come from outside, passed her on her way out. "Where are you going?" asked Louis, looking at his younger brother. "I'm going for a walk," said Julia cheerfully.

"It's been a while, Sis. I'll go first. Bye!" said the girl while waving her hand enthusiastically.

Louis straightened his coat collar, totally uninterested in returning a wave of his younger brother's hand. his black eyes turned to Julia's departure from their home. He gave a cold and piercing gaze.

"Just go away forever," murmured Louis before entering his majestic residence. There is absolutely no concern left for the girl who has the status of his younger sister. there is only jealousy, and anger at every injustice he has received so far. All because of Julia's presence.

"Hmm, near the tree." Julia reads the last message from Jacob. He then looked around. "Eh, this park is true, right?" he muttered frantically, afraid that the wrong place would be their appointment.

Julia stopped the search, then stood quietly aside, checking her cell phone. Where is Jacob? He was tired of walking around the front garden looking for the man.

Suddenly, there was a loud sound of horn that sounded from behind, and Julia jumped. In a hurry, the girl with the silver cloth turned around and looked at the perpetrator. there was someone sitting quietly on a black motorbike, his head still wearing a helmet of the same color, making it impossible for Julia to see the stranger's face.

Who is she? Julia couldn't tell, except that he was a well-built man. the figure in front of him then opened the windshield of his helmet, Julia took a step back. Suddenly the person raised his left hand. "Hi?" said the man, Julia almost screamed on the spot. That's Jacob.

"Hi too. Why just came?" asked Julia with a forced smile. it wasn't that she didn't like the presence of the man who always came to her dreams, but she just failed to control her expression.

"I've been coming since an hour ago," he replied as he got off the big Harley Davidson type motorbike. Julia swallowed saliva slowly, Jacob was really high. about 180cm? No, maybe higher than that. "Actually, I was waiting for you in the back garden. In fact, I can see you so difficult to find my whereabouts from there."

Julia's face immediately flushed red when she realized Jacob's words. How embarrassed he is!

"Why didn't you tell me beforehand?" Julia's question made Jacob laugh, which made Julia stunned where he stood. "Haha, well ... I just like seeing you confused like that. So, I'll just leave it."

then there was silence for a few moments, until Jacob started a new conversation between them. "Want to go there?" he asked, pointing to the ice cream parlor. Julia quickly nodded.

"What do you like the taste?" Julia asked Jacob as they arrived at their destination. he was sorting out the ice cream flavors on the menu list. "Just chocolate," replied Jacob, who was standing beside the girl. Julia felt very short next to him. Even though the height is more than ideal, 168cm. "Alright. Uncle! Order one chocolate and strawberry flavor, OK?"

if people who meet for the first time talk less often when they are together, it's not the case with Julia and Jacob. The two of them are even busy telling each other's experiences. Stories during school, or childhood stories that they think are funny.

julia kept laughing, her expression looked bright when she looked at the beautiful face of Jacob. When the second ice cream was finished, Jacob would go back to buy and give one of them to Julia, who happily accepted it. "So, what are your goals?" asked Julia, licking vanilla ice cream, she was busy eating ice cream until she didn't realize that she had eaten a mess. Around her lips were filled with ice cream.

Jacob, suddenly silent, made Julia turn to him. His heart started pounding as Jacob's big hand lifted and rubbed her lips gently. Julia froze on the spot. "There's an ice cream stain in here," Jacob said, carefully cleaning Julia's face. There was a moment of silence in that thrilling moment, until the eyes of the two met.

Julia looked down reflexively, and Jacob laughed at her. Their togetherness had to be disturbed when water droplets from the sky began to slowly arrive to those sitting on the park chairs. "Rain?" muttered Julia, raising her hands and looking up at the sky that was turning black and gray.

Before Julia could lower her head to look at Jacob, suddenly the man's jacket was covering her head from the rain. "Just wear this first, until we find shelter," Jacob said, smiling broadly.

Then all of a sudden, Jacob slides under the hood of his jacket and manages to startle Julia. jacob can clearly see the blush on the cheeks of the girl who is under the same jacket as him, he smiled at her when the two's eyes met again.

Jacob then invites Julia to take shelter in a closed burger shop. along the way, Julia could only remain silent while following his steps. Julia was speechless, she just lowered her head with her heart pounding in her chest. Leaving a warm feeling in the middle of the cold rain, that day.

"I love seeing Julia's change," Charlie said as he gathered with his wife and eldest son. "I thought the kid would continue to be cold to us, but it has been that Julia has been making good progress for a while now."

Louis didn't seem to like to hear that. meggan only chuckled, then agreed with her husband's words, "You're right, honey. Julia is so cute now."

"I've made the decree to move the two companies on Julia's behalf." Charlie's sudden words sounded like lightning in broad daylight to Louis. the man with the thin mustache opened his eyes. "WHAT?!" he exclaimed, startled.

"Papa is crazy? Why give company for that kid !?" Louis clearly did not accept the unilateral decision made by his father. His papa was too much.

"Louis, watch your mouth! You're starting to dare to fight Papa ?!You want Papa to revoke your restaurant business right now !? "

Louis's teeth clenched against each other in anger. "Why does it have to be Julia who Papa gave our assets of wealth ?! Your son who has grown up right now does not existLouis is more skilled and smarter than him and Papa can give me all the ownership of the company! "

Louis's irritation peaked. "But Papa chose Julia instead ?! Don't do anything unreasonable, Pa!"

"Shut up! You don't need to interfere, Louis! Papa's decision is final!" Charlie immediately stood up and left his wife and child who were clenching their fists tightly.

Louis was silent, he looked at the father with a piercing gaze. Always, always Julia comes first. It's always the child that both parents are proud of. even though 27 years had passed, but not even once his parents really paid attention to him.

"Why does it have to be trash that you love? Why not me?" Meggan's muttering was heard by Meggan, who immediately commented on his words. "Stop insulting your brother, Louis," said Meggan sternly. "Don't keep doing something that could harm our family. Remember your behavior as a teenager."

"We really had a hard time removing the dirt that you made at that time! Don't you embarrass this family anymoreand respect your brother! "

"I've never had a younger brother like him," said Louis fiercely, with a flat face. He did not accept this sad reality, where his mother never even loved him. From the past, even now.

Louis stood up, choosing to ignore the words of the woman who had given birth to him. His heart was too sick to get different treatment from his father and mother who should have supported him as the first child they could be proud of.

however, the reality he got was the opposite. In fact, it was Julia who was deified by them as the second child. Louis then went over to the stairs, leading to his room on the second floor. His eyes were so dark and cold, as if they could freeze anyone who happened to meet him face to face.

"I'll pay back Julia's every move," Louis whispered to himself. "And get rid of that bitch for good. Just watch."

his chest cavity was already very tight because it was filled with very deep hatred for his younger brother. This is clearly not an act of humiliation, he is quite sure this is not a big sin, Louis just wants to claim the rights that have been deprived of him so far.

Nothing is more fun than a confession .
