4. Messy Sweet Home

Even though the true incident at that time was that Josh just wanted to go down to take a valuable photo that had fallen, but instead Jane insisted that Josh wanted to kill himself because of family problems.

“So you will be my girlfriend?” asked Josh, still looking under the bridge.

The wind was blowing hard and made the photo stuck on the side of the bridge carried by the wind to the riverbed.

“Did I say so? Something like that?” Jane asked, pulling Josh's hand to the other side of the bridge.

“At least you have to be responsible with your words or don't butt into someone's matters,” said Josh sharply.

It made Jane froze can't believe what she just heard from someone's, she just in hurries to jump to help.

“Wh-what?” said Jane uncomfortably.

“Such a shame. You don't even know what you did,” Josh though on his important photo. “Never mind,” he let go off Jane's hand from his arm, “My car's over there,” Josh left Jane who still insisted on following him.

Until now Jane thinks like that, moreover, Josh's family is something that is still mysterious to ordinary people like Jane and her college friends. Only Caldeo was the only person Josh spoke to, and the college administration knew Josh. For Jane herself, who has known him closely for 2 years, and doesn't even know Josh's family background, except for what is certain that Josh comes from a rich family that doesn't have love. Josh's personality was cold and indifferent, even though he was actually a very good man if already got to know him better.

Crin… Crin… Crin…

The sound of the crossing siren interrupted Jane's thoughts. Jane, who had been dreaming about it, stared at the message in the chat room she had with Josh. Jane put her smartphone back in her bag and of course looked straight and crossed with the other pedestrians.

Unbeknownst to Jane, Josh accidentally had been watching Jane through the windshield. Well, Josh was one of the drivers among the cars that stopped behind the crossing. Josh, who saw Jane passing comfortably in front of him, immediately looked around for his smartphone to contact Jane. Josh opened the car drawer, looked in the back and side seats, fumbled in his pockets and sure enough, he couldn't find his smartphone.

“Gee! Damn it, I left my smartphone,” Josh mumbled in his car.

“But it's okay, I found you girl,” Josh pointed at Jane who was walking across.

Josh also knew Jane was walking towards her apartment building, so he took the initiative to turn the car straight to Jane's apartment to surprise her.

Jane, who was still walking towards her apartment, was still cursing Josh who had no news,

'Even though he wanted to be treated, he couldn't be contacted, you, Josh. Damn kid,' Jane thought in her mind.

“Hmm, the baddest boy,” Jane snorted again as she continued walking.

Josh, who had arrived at Jane's apartment building, had parked his car for the valet attendant in the building. He immediately waited for Jane right in front of Jane's apartment door. Number 707B floor 7, unit number 7, building B. While waiting patiently for Jane who had not arrived, Josh smiled to himself thinking that Jane might make a funny expression when she saw Josh was right there in front of her.

“Oh, it's not good,” Josh said quietly.

'I think my cheeks are turning red,' thought Josh, holding his cheeks reflexively.

“That's a shame, man,” Josh mumbled again, who immediately ruffled his own hair in shame that he had unconsciously thought about and imagined how cute Jane is.

Ttingg…

The elevator door in the corner of the room opened. Josh watched from afar, anxiously hoping it was Jane. A couple got out of the elevator, 'seems to be the unit keeper on the same floor as Jane,' thought Josh as he paced back and forth in front of Jane's door while waiting patiently.

“Why is this woman walking so long, huh?” said Josh, looking at the clock in his hand.

Josh started to think in his mind, 'But is she really going back to the apartment? Or did she just drop by somewhere else and head back to the studio?” Josh asked in his mind.

“Not right, I think I'll just follow back to make sure,” continued Josh again, who was still looking at the numbers on his watch.

Josh walked back to the elevator and pressed the open button. The two elevators still haven't opened and a small monitor above the elevator can be seen running, one elevator going down, the other elevator going up, floors 3, 4, 5, 6 he watched patiently and 7.

Ttingg… 

The elevator door opened, and Josh just stared at the open door, without thinking that the person who would come out from inside was the person he was waiting for.

“Josh!” said sweetly surprised to see Josh whom she had been cursing along the way was in front of her eyes.

“Hi sweet lady, where have you been this so long?” said Josh with a spoiled smile.

Jane got out of the elevator with her hands full of groceries.

“Since when did you get here?” said Jane.

“About almost 20 decades,” Josh said joking her, “20 minutes ago,” he continued to correct his answer, who then looked at the weight in Jane's hands. “Hmm… No wonder you took so long, see how much you bought,” he continued, “Here I can help carry,” Josh swiftly took the two shopping bags in Jane's hands.

“He-he… just stopped by the supermarket, my fridge is almost empty,” Jane answered shortly, smiling sweetly at Josh who had already lifted her two heavy groceries bags.

They walked to unit 707B.

Jane scanned her fingerprints and opened the apartment door, warmly inviting Josh in. As usual, this wasn't the first time Josh had messed with Jane's apartment.

“Wow look at this girl, look it's always neat and in place,” Josh sneered at Jane who noticed the sliding door of the shoe cabinet not closed properly where several pairs of shoes strewn anywhere in front of the cabinet.

“Messy girl… Messy,” Josh laughed at Jane.

“Hmm annoying man. Are you going to keep repeating that every time you come here? Stop teasing my messy sweet home, he-he,” said Jane as she got Josh and herself slippers.

“Oh, thanks,” Josh said, smiling smugly.

Jane changed her shoes to house slippers immediately and walked in quickly.

Josh also walked in, “Where should I put this?” said Josh, holding up two of Jane's shopping bags.

“Oh, there, just put it over there,” Jane, who was running a little, pointed at the kitchen,

“Josh, my stomach hurts, you take care of yourself first!” Jane disappeared into her room.
