Dexter takes the writing part. The deadline is two weeks away. They agree to meet once a week.
Dexter mengambil bagian penulisan. Batas waktunya dua minggu lagi. Mereka sepakat bertemu seminggu sekali.
Ximena finishes her research early. She starts helping with the writing too. She reads every chapter alone.

She feels frustrated, but she does not want to fight. She decides to talk to him calmly.

"I did almost all the work this time," Ximena says. "Can we talk about the next project?"
"Kali ini aku mengerjakan hampir semuanya," kata Ximena. "Bisakah kita bicara tentang proyek berikutnya?"
Dexter looks a little embarrassed. "You're right," he says. "I didn't do enough. I'm sorry."
Dexter tampak agak malu. "Kamu benar," katanya. "Aku kurang berkontribusi. Maaf."
"Let's split hours evenly next time," Ximena says. "We can check in twice a week."
"Lain kali kita bagi jam kerja secara merata," kata Ximena. "Kita bisa saling mengecek dua kali seminggu."
Dexter agrees and writes it down. They both sign up for a new project together.
Dexter setuju dan menuliskannya. Mereka berdua mendaftar untuk proyek baru bersama-sama.
