I'm Not Juliet

part 9's

" Next week I plan to go to the city, I'm accepted to work for a magazine printing company" Amanda told her parents while having breakfast in the morning.

" When did you apply for a job ? " mama asked a little worried about hearing her son was moving to town.

" Have you thought carefully? " ask Papa who has been busy reading the newspaper.

" I don't know, I just feel bored if at home continues, I want a new atmosphere" said Amanda hesitated.

" If you have already decided, you should take responsibility for your decision. Papa does not want one day you complain of fatigue because you work as a subordinate in a company" said Papa.

" No, I'll probably enjoy it. I really want to go to the city to get new experiences and new places" Amanda said.

" Alright then, Mama will call Romi so that he helps find a place to stay for you there" said Mama while reaching for Hp and looking for a number romi.

" Don't Ma....!"

" I don't want you to know that I'm moving into town" Amanda spoke a little down so she made her parents feel like there was something weird about her.

" Are you guys okay? "

" You two are usually everywhere" said Papa.

" Sister Romi has his own life pa, I don't want to constantly depend on him" Amanda said.

" Alright then" mother put her cellphone back on the table.

" I'm going to clean up my stuff" Amanda said as she passed in front of her parents.

" Mommy will help" Mama said as she stood up and followed Amanda.

Papa continued to read the newspaper while sipping a cup of coffee while Mama hurriedly followed Amanda who was heading to her room.

" Is there a problem?" I asked Mom when she was in Amanda's room.

" Why did you suddenly decide to work? don't you already have income from youtube ?" mama asked, opening Amanda's closet.

" I want to have a new atmosphere Ma, I'm bored at home" said Amanda in a sad tone.

" Tell Mama when you're ready to tell her" Mama is like a psychologist who seems to know Amanda's heart and mind.

" I'm going home once a week, so you don't see me there." Amanda said.

Mama was silent at her son's words, Mama looked at Amanda with a sad face with a blanket in her half-folded hand.

" Have you found a rented house?" ask Mama again.

" No, I don't live in a rented but in a boarding house" Amanda said.

" What ? the cos-boss? " Mom was a little anxious about the statement from her son. Mama knows very well what it's like to live in the cost.

" You should rent a house, it will be more comfortable if you live alone" said Mama.

" I'll spend the night at Bella Maa's boarding house...!" said Amanda who was pacing around looking for her things that would be brought to the city.

"Bella's the village chief's son? " say Mama.

" Yes"

" Thankfully if you live with one of our complex people, at least Mama knows where to call if you don't pick up your phone".

" I've grown Maa... !!"

" You're still like a baby in Mama's eyes!" say Mama.

Amanda's clothes are ready to be packed, Amanda tidied up her room so that her room was clean before she left.

" I'm going to miss you" Amanda told her room.
