C) “Boy, the gods must love you!” he says half-laughing. “This is Justus.” says Flavius pointing to the boy standing next to you. Justus gives you a little nod. He seems as if he thinks he’s a little too cool to be standing there talking with you and Flavius. “So, what are we going to do today?” Justus asks. He looks and Flavius, then at you, and begins to grin. “I have an idea.” he says finally. “Let’s sneak into the Circus Maximus to watch the chariot races!” You feel a knot in your stomach and nervously glance at Flavius. You know that you shouldn’t do something like that. “Why can’t we just pay at the gate like every other Roman citizen does?” you ask. “Are you stupid? It’s too expensive to do that!” Justus says condescendingly. You also know that you have to go to work soon at the aqueduct.
E) Go with Flavius and Justus to the Circus Maximus
D) Go straight to the aqueduct
