Romeo and Promises (Romeo Ingkar Janji)

People are born with their own destinies.

But in order to live with it,

we have to find our own paths.

Sometimes life is too short.

So we don't have enough time to discover our path.

Sometimes life is too long.

So we discover numerous paths

and get lost inside the labyrinth.

Romeo!

Everyone who lives in this house must obey the rules.

No excuses.

She's 21 years old now.

But you still continue to let her live her trashy life.

She will change eventually.

She's still in bed at this hour!

- Is she always like this? - Good morning, miss.

- I don't know. - What do you know?

She is your daughter!

She's your grandchild.

Agatha.

Agatha?

Agatha.

Let's have breakfast.

I don't need it.

Someone will not let me and will make me pay for it.

You'll spread your germs to everyone here with that water bottle.

Use a glass!

If you don't like the rules in this house, get out!

Rules in this house are in place because you've resented me

your entire life.

- Agatha, don't be like that. - Like what, Dad?

Speak up! Don't just be silent.

Do your job as a father.

Mom!

Watch your mouth!

What do you think you're doing? This is a private property!

Sorry, I didn't know.

You don't have to yell like that.

What? This isn't allowed too?

Yeah, I see that sign.

But I'm drawing, not taking pictures.

The point is you're not allowed here.

NO PHOTOS OR VIDEO ALLOWED IN THIS AREA

It's only a matter of time

before all of Bali becomes private property.

Bad drawing.

It's just a sketch.

If you want to see the finished work, come to my tattoo studio.

Do people still get landscape tattoos?

It's up to them.

If you want this private property to be your tattoo,

I can do it.

I don't have any private property.

I don't even know who this land belongs to.

Thanks for the drawing.

Did you have another fight with your grandma?

You know how it goes. And my dad stayed silent, as usual.

I think I better die.

Hey, don't say that. You're always thinking about dying.

- What is that? - On my way here,

I met a guy who is a tattoo artist.

- What's his name? - I don't know.

I forgot to ask where his tattoo studio is.

I might want to get a tattoo someday.

Agatha, firstly, we don't know if he is an actual tattoo artist.

Secondly, are you brave enough? Don't come to me and tell me it hurts.

Did he draw this?

Why do you have it?

Because your house needs some decoration.

Wait.

I don't think it matches my house's vibe.

What are you talking about? It's good.

It just doesn't blend well.

- Let's go. - To where?

Sometimes I think

why do I exist in this life?

It's your destiny.

Was it a curse that my parents met each other

and had me?

Again and again.

When will you stop regretting your existence in this world?

I don't know.

Okay.

Agatha.

- Don't be crazy. - It's only ten meters high.

- Are you scared? - I'm not scared, Runa.

- Then what? - I'm not going to die out of stupidity.

Agatha, I only ask that you jump in the water, not into hellfire.

It's the perfect time to release all the things that are stressing you out.

My ears are stressed out too, you know.

Trust me, Agatha.

Once you jump, all of your life's burdens will be gone.

So you have to let everything go.

Let's go.

Okay.

There you are. The brave Agatha.

- Okay, let's go. - Okay.

- Okay. - Let's do this.

Okay.

- Three, two, one! - Three, two, one!

- All done! - Wow, it's so cool.

After you get home, keep it dry for a week.

- Thank you. - You're welcome.

Mom.

- Are you heading out again? - Customers are waiting for me.

- Who gave these snacks? - Our neighbor.

But you're diabetic.

It's fine.

I wired the money. I'm heading out now.

All right. Drive safely.

Phew.

- Are you going home now? - Yes.

All right, see you later.

Don't go just yet, please. Let's go to my house.

Or don't. You'll be back at my house within an hour, anyway.

Okay, let's go.

I truly want to enjoy life before I go.

- Where are you going? - To heaven. Want to come?

Go with your family.

You are my family.

- Sorry, I'm late. - It's okay.

Hi.

- I thought your gig had started. - Not yet.

- Why? - Arya nags me to do a gig in Jakarta.

Why don't you take it?

I don't want to go back there. Jakartans are snobs.

Dayu, not all Jakartans are snobs. There are poor ones too.

You and your childish excuses.

Let her be. I hate Jakarta too.

- See? - Hey.

How will Indonesia grow if all the youths are like you?

- You're annoying. I'll get ready. - Yeah, he nags a lot.

- Hey! - I'll have the usual.

Cut it out.

Since when do you hate Jakarta?

Since I realized Jakarta is full of ambitious, selfish people.

It's suffocating.

You mean your dad?

Yes, him too. He's done for.

Consumed by the metropolitan giants.

How do you talk to a giant? Use big words.

- It's a pun on Jakarta's giant. - So lame.

Cheers to the best...

- Fuck to the rest. - Fuck to the rest.

What are you doing in the women's room?

This is the men's room.

One Amnesia, please!

Hey.

Sorry about earlier.

All right.

I'm Romeo.

Agatha.

Nice name.

Thanks.

It's a Greek word

for a kind-hearted girl.

He keeps ignoring my order.

Sir.

What do you want to order?

- One Amnesia. - Make it two.

- Two of what? - Two Amnesia.

Got it.

Who are you looking for?

- My friend. - A boy or a girl?

A girl.

Sir, can you bring our orders there?

Come on.

Yeah! Dayu!

Why are you laughing?

It's been a while since I've met someone with a lame tattoo.

Well, it's my first one and I did it myself.

Why did you do it? To prove yourself?

What do you mean?

High school students are indeed in the phase of proving themselves.

- Don't you think grown-ups are the same? - Well, not for me.

So, you see yourself as a grown-up who has already figured out who you are?

You're good.

Good at what?

At making this conversation last longer.

Thank you.

- Cheers. - Cheers.

There you are. Where have you been? I was looking for you.

Sorry, my migraine had suddenly relapsed earlier.

Why didn't you call me?

Tell me, where is your phone?

Oh, you're right. We lost our phones when we jumped off the cliff.

Besides, I saw you hanging out with a guy.

You saw me?

And you didn't tell me you were going home?

Who is he?

He is the tattoo artist I told you before.

Oh, that's him.

Looks like someone is making a progress.

I don't know what you're talking about.

- Should I go home? - No, please stay.

You'll have another fight with your grandma and your dad.

Just stay.

Sorry?

Please tell them that I can't take on any projects at this time.

All right.
