How to add rounded corner view inside another layout .xml- Android

Question

I am trying to display a list using an own layout that's going to be populated with some info fetched from the server. I would like to create my own layout (to use it in ListView ), to have in the right and left top corners some rounded views , to display time and date. I have found an exemple online as follows:

My question it's: How can i achieve this? What must be done in the root layout of the ListView to create that round view in the the corners? I have searched online and nothing popped. The layout presented above it's a screenshot from another application, that uses the same logic. (Creating a ListView with a root layout )

I have found a solution, probably not the best way to do it but the outcome is as follows:

I have used a RelativeLayout as parent, with 2 views aligned to left and right, and to make them go out of the parent, used on both android:marginStart and android:marginEnd plus android:marginTop with negative values. The code is as follows:

<?xml version="1.0" encoding="utf-8"?>
<RelativeLayout
    xmlns:android="http://schemas.android.com/apk/res/android"
    android:layout_width="match_parent"
    android:layout_height="wrap_content">
    <RelativeLayout
        android:layout_marginBottom="5dp"
        android:layout_marginTop="5dp"
        android:layout_marginStart="15dp"
        android:layout_marginEnd="15dp"
        android:layout_width="match_parent"
        android:layout_height="120dp">
        <TextView
            android:layout_alignParentStart="true"
            android:layout_marginStart="-8dp"
            android:layout_marginTop="-10dp"
            android:layout_width="50dp"
            android:layout_height="50dp"
            android:textColor="@color/white"
            android:text="32''"
            android:gravity="center"
            android:paddingLeft="8dp"
            android:paddingTop="8dp"
            android:background="@drawable/buton_rotund_albastru" />
        <TextView
            android:layout_alignParentEnd="true"
            android:layout_marginEnd="-8dp"
            android:layout_marginTop="-10dp"
            android:layout_width="50dp"
            android:layout_height="50dp"
            android:textColor="@color/white"
            android:text="32''"
            android:gravity="center"
            android:paddingRight="8dp"
            android:paddingTop="8dp"
            android:background="@drawable/buton_rotund_albastru"/>
    </RelativeLayout>
</RelativeLayout>
