Beautiful Monster
Kinda Sucks
...Rajendra ⁇ ◝ ⁇ ◜...
^^^I have arrived at the station |^^^
^^^In the meantime the train came |^^^
| Be careful on the road, Ignacia
| Keep an eye around, okay?
| After you arrive at the station
| Don't forget to contact me
^^^Alright, I understand |^^^
^^^Will I call again later |^^^
^^^The train has come |^^^
| Well I wait for you later
Ignacia quickly stored her phone into a bag, immediately taking a position before her train stopped perfectly. Today the station is quite crowded, Ignacia should be faster to find her seat before more people enter. Jostling at night is not something everyone likes, right?
The girl was finally able to breathe a sigh of relief when the stool around where she had to be was still empty. I hope no one fills. Ignacia was too lazy to be around someone she didn't know. The feeling is flowery, happy, no one should accidentally ruin it.
Before the train went, Ignacia reached into the pouch, pulling out her bluetooth airpods to listen to music. This time Ignacia will listen to music that once made her accidentally meet with Rajendra after a book signing event. It had been a long time but Ignacia still remembered the strange feeling of that time very clearly.
Perhaps listening to the song once again could make it easier for Ignacia to meet Rajendra. The train began to run, along with the start of the song from StayC. "Would I play this song at the end to make it work better? Ah I'll listen to him again before I get there" whispered the girl to herself.
Like the characters in the film, Ignacia put her phone on her lap, the hand she used to hold her head so her eyes could keep staring out the window. Coupled with the background music that only he could hear himself made him feel really cool. The sky was already dark, the scenery outside could not be seen clearly unless it had lighting.
Ignacia exhaled slowly, but the song she listened to was not a sad song that could be heartbreaking. Ignacia remained in her position until she heard several alternating songs. By the way Ignacia just realized the empty bench around it after passing several stations. There was no one beside him.
There are still two more stations, Ignacia must get ready to listen to the song Beautiful Monster. With a stifled smile, Ignacia tried to neutralize the water on her face. People can misunderstand if they see a foreign girl walking with a smile that continues to expand. Also this happy energy is better stored so as not to fatigue.
Ignacia looked back at the things she had taken out. Soon he will arrive at the destination station. Now only the song Beautiful Monster will accompany Ignacia until she meets her lover. Once all of her luggage was properly stored, Ignacia got up near the exit.
...Rajendra ⁇ ◝ ⁇ ◜...
^^^Rajendra, I have arrived at the station |^^^
^^^Now I will wait for bus |^^^
^^^I will arrive at the restaurant shortly |^^^
There was no reply from the lover, the thick-browed man must still be busy working. Ignacia has arrived later than before, so it's only necessary to wait for Rajendra to finish his job an hour ahead. Ignacia's wait is shorter than ever.
"Yes, I know, yeah, you're a beautiful monster,"
"You hurt me and then you healed me,"
"Yes, I know, yes, you are a beautiful monster,"
"Love is ooh-ooh, love is ooh-ooh,"
The mouth of this long-haired girl several times chanted the song she heard in a small voice. His hands clasped the sling bag over his thighs while his legs continued to swing as his halter seat was empty. The upcoming bus will look like it's just picking up Ignacia if there's still no one riding from this stop.
Ten minutes passed, a reply from Rajendra had not yet appeared. The bus that the girl was waiting for was also still not coming. Time goes by so slowly when it is only ten minutes. Five minutes later, the long-awaited public transport arrived. And it just so happened that no one climbed up from the stop where Ignacia was sitting.
The bus went down because some people got off before the bus went back on. Ignacia chose a chair close to the exit. The bus stops at the next stop, there are many people who go up without anyone going down. The bus that initially turned crowded like going to study tour. No problem, Ignacia's journey is coming to an end.
Ignacia's trip tonight was somewhat interrupted by a red light. To be honest Ignacia is not afraid of being late because Rajendra's working hours are also not over. Ignacia was somewhat uncomfortable with the presence of the baby beside her. She was crying and her mother was a little overwhelmed.
Pity the young woman who seemed to be the new mother, but on the other hand Ignacia did not like the noise. Not to mention some of the High School children who stood in front of him while holding on to the bus pole. They talked and laughed quite loudly. Ignacia wanted to encourage them to laugh elsewhere.
This bus is different from the bus that Ignacia took last time. The seat position is opposite between the feeder on the right and left of the bus. Ignacia had to find another bus so that no one would stand in front of her. I don't know why the conversation about their friend was so interesting that they laughed so much. Ignacia who listened became tired.
"Oh, sorry!" The attention of some was distracted by the cry of the woman beside Ignacia. The formula she would give the child fell accidentally. Not because of the mother's negligence, but her child will be fed. His hand refused until finally Ignacia was affected.
If viewed, the bottle cap must be closed less tightly until the contents can spill. In a hurry Ignacia got up, the warm formula milk managed to make the long white pleated skirt that he wore smelled. Ignacia wanted to show Rajendra a combination of olive and white.
The two High School boys standing right in front of Ignacia were similarly shocked. They quickly gave a tissue, just as the young mother beside Ignacia did. Even though it sucks, the three people around him are quite helpful. The baby's mother continued to apologize, the other two girls continued to issue tissue. Ignacia was speechless, busy taking care of her skirt.
As soon as the bus stopped at the stop Ignacia was heading to, he got up. Before it could go down, the two High School children gave some more tissue sheets. Ignacia thanked them and left immediately. Ah now it feels so sticky. How Ignacia can show herself in front of Rajendra this way.
The situation on the train was good despite crammed, while in other public transportation Ignacia even hit bad luck. What song did he play that started to have a negative impact instead of the one Ignacia had hoped for? He hasn't even met Rajendra at all.
Not finished with the smell of milk, now the stain appears. Ignacia should soak this skirt and provide some extra material to remove these stains. "It should be a good day today. Why are there so many trials coming? Ah how am I going to tell Rajendra? I don't bring any more clothes."
Does Ignacia have to buy a skirt first so Rajendra doesn't know? But isn't it too late? Ignacia does not memorize any other route besides the way to go to the restaurant where Rajendra works. There is also no mall along the way to go there. In less than an hour, will Ignacia be able to go shopping for a while?
Many questions and plans arose relentlessly, striking Ignacia's dizzy head. Ignacia needs food to think. Rajendra wants the two to eat together before going to the station. Before arriving at Rajendra's place, Ignacia took the time to come to the minimarket to buy milk, enough to prop up the stomach.
"I ate a snack earlier." Danita gives Ignacia snacks before leaving for the station. Ignacia's stomach quickly felt empty because it held back the anger at the young mother. Yes Ignacia knows caring for children is not young. But why should he be the one affected? Sucks.
With much consideration, Ignacia finally decided to go straight to Rajendra once the man's return hour was near. He sat for a while in front of the minimarket to enjoy a box of vanilla-flavored milk. The long haired girl took off her airpods and put them in a bag. Ignacia no longer needs a spell to see Rajendra.
The girl stared at the solid street in front of her. Some people passed by, heading somewhere with the water of a dominant face flat and happy. They were all wearing scented clothes instead of milk. Looks like only Ignacia smells of formula milk. Until when waiting in line there are mothers in front of him who are confused about where the smell he breathes.
Ignacia threw the empty milk box into the trash before meeting Rajendra. Who would have thought if Ignacia spent a lot of time just to spend on a medium-sized milk school. His mood was chaotic, that must be the reason. Something bad seems to be coming back to upset Ignacia.
...Rajendra ⁇ ◝ ⁇ ◜...
| I'm done working
| Where have you been?
| I can see you
^^^I am almost up to |^^^
^^^Wait a minute |^^^
Ignacia clasped her phone firmly, carrying it running to get there immediately. Forget about the people staring at him trying to run on the sidewalk. Ignacia doesn't care about anything. At the end of the road, Ignacia will meet Rajendra who will soon leave the restaurant.
Not yet at the door of the restaurant, Ignacia's steps stopped once she found someone chatting with a woman Ignacia clearly remembered. The woman was a friend of Kemala, the girl who lived in front of Rajendra's house when they were in the twelfth grade.
"Why should I see them chatting so intimately? Isn't formula-side shedding enough?" Ignacia refused to get closer. Reluctant to disturb the familiarity of two people who have been neighbors for the past three years. Should Ignacia just send a message?
"You've arrived." The sound came from behind. Ignacia hurriedly turned her head, someone already standing next to her in a short period of time. "Why not go in and see Rajendra? He's been waiting for you since. You know, she smiles all day because she's gonna see you."
If Bagas' words were true, Rajendra should not have chatted with the woman for long, right? Bagas reprimanded the girl next to him once more, his words just now as if they were not heard because Ignacia was just frozen still. "Just embrace Rajendra for the girl to leave" Bagas whispered.
Sounds like advice from Bagas is going to work. That way Ignacia can all complain about this milk-smelling skirt. Ignacia left Bagas' place without saying anything. While the one left behind was just staring at Ignacia while folding her hands in front of her chest. Bagas passed along with the bag he had worn on his back. Time to let the two friends date.
The sound of the door Ignacia made managed to make the two people inside the restaurant turn their heads. Both Rajendra and Feby smiled at Ignacia, welcoming her new arrival in a friendly manner. Ignacia immediately ran small towards Rajendra, writhing on the lover's arm.
"Who is this woman? Your buddy?"
Ignacia had never met Feby before. He only got information from Kemala without getting acquainted. As Ignacia asked the question, Feby immediately reached out with the intention of shaking hands. Fortunately, he finds out that Ignacia is Rajendra's lover and it doesn't take him long to leave the restaurant.
"It's good to see you, Ignacia. I'm saying, Sarah better get some rest. See you, Ignacia, Rajendra." Something seemed to get stuck out of Feby's expression before leaving. Sarah who he mentioned earlier is Sarah who is in class with Rananta?
As Feby leaves the restaurant, Rajendra pulls Ignacia's hand into his arms. "I'm worried because you haven't arrived. Why are you taking so long? I've missed you so much." Is Ignacia sure this man who hugged her is really Rajendra?
Even so Ignacia still returned the embrace of her lover was no less warm. This is the reason why he used the song Beautiful Monster as a spell before meeting Rajendra. His hope of meeting Rajendra may not work, but at least he can hug his girlfriend after a long time.
Rajendra permits briefly to pick up the bag he put in the kitchen. Do not forget the cleaning equipment table he brought to be placed where it should be. Ignacia used the opportunity to pay attention to a car parked in front of the restaurant. Inside there is a woman who rests her head on the windshield of a car.
If Sarah was there, Rajendra had met her too? It's good that fate didn't test Ignacia's patience any deeper by watching two girls chat with her lover. After the car left, Rajendra came out of the kitchen with his bag. "Let's go eat. You must be hungry already," the man asked while holding Ignacia's hand.
Rajendra said that if a friend is still inside until the door doesn't need to be locked. Ignacia had better stop Rajendra before the two left the restaurant. "My skirt was spilled by formula milk. I want to change clothes before we go to eat."
This man must have missed Ignacia's face so much that he did not realize the presence of this stain on his lover's intentions. "We'll eat at the mall, then. So you can find a new skirt and eat right away."
