Juliet finished her work and it was time to go home. Her colleague joined her as they walked through the company gate.
(They are talking and giggling)
Juliet: "Babe, are we still attending your neighbor's party?"
Colleague: "Not too sure. Boss gave me an impromptu assignment and I must deliver."
Juliet: "That's true. I'm not going either since you won't be there."
Colleague: "Truly, we're both invited but that doesn't mean one of us can't go."
Juliet: "You know I'm not used to your neighbor that much. I won't be free if I go there alone."
Colleague: "You always find an excuse if you don't want to do something."
(They both laughed and stand by the side of the road waiting for a taxi). As they were waiting, a vehicle plopped in front of them. The guy driving whines down the glass to greet.
The Guy: "Hello!"
Juliet Friend: "Hi!"
Juliet: (She looked to see who is greeting), "You again?"
The Guy: "Yeah, me again. Can I drop you guys?"
Juliet Friend: "With pleasure."
Juliet: "No, thanks!"
The Guy: "Please!"
Juliet: "I said no, thanks!"
(She was angry as she gave her colleague a bad look)
Juliet Friend: "Mr?"
The Guy: "Robinson is my name."
Juliet Friend: "Thanks for trying to help but we've already ordered a taxi. Maybe next time."
Mr. Robinson: "It's okay." (He bids them goodbye and drove off)
Juliet: "Zoe, why are you always like this? You're willing to take a ride with a total stranger!"
Zoe: "I agree that is a stranger, but he's just trying to help us."
Juliet: "Really? Is the same guy that ruins my day!"
Zoe: "Oh, wow! He's the one? He's charming and welcoming." (She was blushing)
Juliet: "Are you serious right now Zoe?"
Zoe: "Calm down Juliet, I'm just saying that the guy is not as bad as you tagged him."
Juliet: "Did you know him?"
Zoe: "I think I met him in an eatery with his siblings some months back."
Juliet: "Oh, now I'm getting it!"
Zoe: "Getting what?"
Juliet: "You did send him to me, right?"
Zoe: (With awe), "how possible is that!" I met him in an eatery as I said earlier. I saw him and his siblings from distance and I admired him that's all!"
Juliet: (Sighs). "It's okay. Sorry for raising my voice."
Zoe: "I don't know why you have a trust issue, but it's fine."
(The taxi driver arrived, and pick them up while the conversation continues)
Juliet: "Are you still angry with me?"
Zoe: "How could I when I knew you're a crazy being."
(They both laughed)
Juliet: "Really?"
Zoe: "You know I don't mean that."(giggling)
Juliet: "So, how is Stephen?"
Zoe: "Oh, please! Why will you be asking of him from me? I think you're high on fever Juliet!"
Juliet: "Are you pained for asking about your partner?"
Zoe: "Which partner? He's not my partner but rather a neighbor of which you know!"
Juliet: "We all know he likes you."
Zoe: "I haven't confirmed it!"
Juliet: "Now, you're hurt!" (They both looked at one another and laughed)
Zoe: "I know that you're a crazy being Juliet! Is that revenge?"
Juliet: "Not really, it's just a play."
(Taxi dropped Zoe and took Juliet to her abode)
