Chapter 11: Robert & Lisa

POV Author.

At this time Robert was neat with his shirt suit. Today is indeed a day off, and he also plans to have a date together with Lisa.

What's wrong with looking for a new atmosphere, right?

Robert had been looking at his cell phone which had rang several times, yes, it was Lisa.

Robert only glanced briefly, then returned to focus on his activity buttoning his shirt.

Indeed, Lisa has been texting and calling a lot since earlier.

Robert felt very embarrassed because the woman didn't seem to give Robert time to enjoy his own time.

It was originally Lisa who invited Robert first, but it was the woman who would come to Robert's house, not Robert who approached the woman.

It's pretty ridiculous! But it was like that in fact, it was Lisa who would approach Robert at home.

After everything was settled, Robert immediately reached for the flat object of a thousand people. Robert immediately picked up his phone which had been ringing.

“Jeez, where have you been, Robert? I've been contacting you since earlier, but why didn't you reply?” asked Lisa over the phone.

“Ah, yes, I'm sorry, I was a bit busy. Where have you been?" asked Robert, noticing his appearance in the mirror.

"I'll be there in a moment, I contacted you to say that I'm already on my way to your house, Robert! But you just picked up my phone," grumbled Lisa who was already annoyed with Robert.

Who wouldn't be annoyed if your friends don't pick up the phone and reply to messages when they have an appointment?

"I'm sorry then, I didn't know, my cell phone was silent," Robert replied lying.

Indeed, Robert had no intention of picking up the woman's phone, if he had intended, Robert would have warmed Lisa's call earlier, right?

"Yes, no problem, then wait for me, I will arrive soon." Lisa just hung up the phone.

Robert just put his cell phone in when the line was disconnected.

Robert is now just waiting for Lisa's arrival at his house. After a few minutes, finally, Lisa came too.

Robert greeted the woman with a sweet smile. “Hey!” says hello.

"Hey, Lisa," replied Robert, happy with his sweet smile.

"Ah, I want to take you for a walk in the city, how about it? Today is a holiday, so there must be a lot of people there. There are lots of bazaars too. Do you want it?" asked Lisa enthusiastically.

Robert nodded in response, not forgetting a sweet smile that broke out. Akh, looks like what Lisa said is an interesting idea.

Besides, Robert doesn't have any important activities today either. So it seems like enjoying your time off in the city is fun, right?

"So ... you want, right?" Lisa asked once again to make sure that Robert didn't make a sound.

Robert who heard this chuckled lightly. It seemed that Robert's nod was the answer, but the woman in front of him asked him again.

"Yes, I want to. Besides, I'm empty today, I have no important schedule," he replied.

"Very fitting then. We'll just go in my car, how about that?” offered Lisa. Lisa looked very happy, you already guessed it from the look on the woman's face, which had been showing her bright smile.

After that, they just went to enjoy the day off together.

While on the way, they are engrossed in chatting happily without feeling awkward. Of course that made Lisa happy because she felt close to Robert.

Robert, of course, also responded to Lisa with no less excitement. Their conversation is always there as if it makes them comfortable.

Arriving at the city center, they immediately got out of the car and enjoyed this bustling atmosphere.

“Oh, yes, I am very grateful to you, Robert. Because you want to come with me for a walk to enjoy this sunny day," said Lisa, smiling sweetly at Robert.

Robert, who heard this, chuckled happily and said, "I should be the one thanking you, for being willing to come to my house to take me for a walk."

“No big deal! I'm ready whenever you want," Lisa answered happily.

They walked around while observing every corner of the city. Crowded! That can inform the current condition.

"By the way, how's your job?" asked Lisa on the sidelines of her steps.

"Thanks, so far so good. How about you?” asked Robert while looking at Lisa from the side.

Lisa smiled sweetly when she accidentally made eye contact with Robert, before Robert looked at Lisa, indeed Lisa's eyes were already on Robert.

“Um, good enough. Akh, yes, it's pretty good, because it's not that good. There are minor obstacles, but I can still handle them,” said Lisa.

Robert's head nodded in response, and so did Lisa who seemed to feel very comfortable with Robert's presence.

Robert was silent for a few minutes to wrestle with the contents of his head. He didn't know what the man was thinking until he ignored Lisa's call.

“Robert!” he doesn't know how many times Lisa has mentioned Robert's name this time.

"Sorry, I was just thinking about some office stuff too," said Robert.

Lisa who heard that could understand it. After all, there are always problems at work, right?

Lisa herself is also like that, whatever it is, there must be a tucked-in problem.

"Yes, I know. If you need help can let me know, who knows I can help you?” she asked.

Robert shook his head slowly. "I should be the one saying that," Robert replied.

A few seconds later they immediately laughed lightly.

"Oh, yes, I met Cynthia yesterday," said Robert suddenly.

Lisa, who heard this, immediately held Robert in confusion.

"Where?"

"On the way," said Robert briefly.

Lisa just kept quiet, no longer responding to Robert's words. But unlike the man beside him, Robert seemed to be offending Cynthia.

“What do you think? Can she survive like that? How long do you think?” asked Robert.

"Um, you mean, living alone?" asked Lisa trying to determine what Robert meant.

Robert answered with a low nod. Meanwhile, Lisa was silent for a few moments.

"What do you think?" asked Robert again.

"I don't know, I don't know either. Why anyway?”

"Nothing, I'm just asking you to guess, nothing more." Lisa smiled sweetly and took Robert's hand.

“Robert, how about we have lunch? I feel very hungry, do you want to find food here? Or at a restaurant?” asked Lisa who tried to change the subject.

"How about we take a walk to the mall first, is there anything you want to buy? I pay, how?" Lisa who heard that immediately nodded enthusiastically.
