Beautiful Monster
Study Initially

"How, Ignacia?" Rajendra's waiting.

The girl in front of him seemed to think. It never hurts to accept Rajendra's offer. Counting as the first time the two learned and dated. But on the other hand, Ignacia might just be bothering her lover about doing chores. Moreover, he is not sure he can help Rajendra who knows everything.

"Please promise to keep me company, okay?"

"Yes, I promise. I'm not gonna make you feel ignored." This man nodded quickly. Even her smile expands perfectly just because of her second little date plan.

Ignacia smiled at Rajendra's playful response. There is something that disturbs his feelings. She forgot Rajendra had better get a good day for this date. Ignacia had forgotten that she had not learned about this.

"May I not disturb him" Ignacia's mind.

...*****...

Arriving home, Ignacia saw her third sister sitting on the porch with her father's cell phone. It looks like he is waiting for something or just playing a game there. The boy shouldn't be sitting outside alone.

"Why sit here, Arvin?" Ignacia asked him.

"I want to go buy some snacks. Mama said I must be accompanied by my sister," replied the boy innocently. He took out a piece of money from inside the pocket dsn thrusting at the older one. "Please take me with you" he said.

"Put the phone inside before you leave. Mama wouldn't be happy if her phone was taken out." Arvin directly according. Step inside the house and put the phone that has been turned off on the living room table.

...*****...

"What time are you leaving?" Rajendra asked. I want to know when my family will leave home. She was alone with her mother in the kitchen. Rajendra happens to be asked to clean the dishes after dinner.

"Do you have any plans for the weekend?" Instead of answering, his mother asked back.

"Yes, ada. When are you guys coming back?"

"Are you going on a date with Ignacia?" Her mother's question made Rajendra react. Although not staring, but his mother's aura looks different. Since then his mother was busy arranging some spices in the kitchen set. He turned to his third son who kept staring.

...*****...

...Rajendra ⁇ ◝ ⁇ ◜...

| Can I just pick you up?

| I'll do if you agree

^^^No, I will come myself |^^^

^^^House master did not pick up his guest |^^^

| Why not?

| You are not an ordinary guest

^^^I'll be leaving soon |^^^

^^^Until you meet at your house |^^^

Ignacia put her phone on the nightstand. Hurry up to take the shoebox out of the closet and wear it on the patio. This girl was too nervous to forget to bring her cell phone and a bag containing her homework out. Ignacia had to take her shoes off and pick them up.

"Sister is nervous when he has met often," taunted Athira who was waiting on his brother's motorcycle. Staring boredly at her brother who looked like the one who was about to make the presentation was extremely important in front of thousands of people. Only met her lover.

"This time I'm his guest. Do you know how nervous I am about meeting people's houses? I'm afraid to make a bad impression. Also.fear of bothering him to do schoolwork."

Ignacia stopped remembering the shoelaces on her left foot, looking at her sister on the motorcycle. "You wouldn't like it if it looked like a bully near someone you like, Athira."

The younger one nodded, turning his gaze to the houses in front that looked desolate. "So much to worry about. Rajendra wants her brother to feel comfortable with her. Act as usual. Kak Rajendra will take care of everything later."

"Yes, you're right. So you're gonna take my motorcycle to your friend's house. Can I trust you with my only motorbike?" Ignacia's gaze was now changing.

Today Athira wants to spend time at her friend's house. He brought his brother to the house of his brother-in-law first and then took him away. Honestly, Athira did not want to do it. But Ignacia will go around in circles if she delivers him first.

"Just trust me, brother."

...*****...

"If you want to go home, just call me. But it's better to spend a lot of time with Rajendra. I might be lazy to go home if I'm at my friend's."

Ignacia patted her sister's shoulder once, "just go as you please. The important thing is that my bike is fine. Youunderstand?" Both are in front of Rajendra's house. The owner of the house had welcomed the two before the younger one went back to the main road.

As expected. There was no one but the two in the house. It feels awkward when Rajendra usually comes to Ignacia's house when it is empty. But the awkwardness didn't last long because Rajendra knew how to melt it back down. It takes effort and confidence to do it.

Both ended up in the living room. Do each other's work in silence.

Ignacia was not wanting to do the task, so she just opened her book and used it as a base to lay her head. His gaze was fixed on Rajendra who was busy editing videos on his laptop. The man certainly realized what his lover was doing and chose silence.

"Why do you have to look at me like that?" Rajendra asked in a cool voice. In fact, he was holding back his nervousness. "You're not doing your job, Ignacia? Do you want another snack?"

"I just want to look at you. So this is the viewpoint of the people in the class if you see you doing something, Rajendra? They're lucky because I rarely see you like this." Ignacia still glared at Rajendra. Looks like someone's in love.

"What are you talking about? If it was you, maybe I would prefer to date instead of doing chores. Why did I ignore you for so long? The job is boring." Rajendra's words made Ignacia chuckle and raise her head from the table.

"Why do you look nervous?" Ask plain Ignacia.

"Because you've been looking at me since." Rajendra stopped his activities for a moment. Staring at the brown eye bead that always made her fall in love. "What do you want hm? I'm sorry to bore you, Ignacia."

The girl shook her head, "I don't mind us doing anything. I know the task is now becoming a trend and should be completed soon. Don't feel burdened and just do your job, Rajendra."

"What if we just eat?"

"But it's not noon yet."

"Then what do you want to do?"

"Why do you have to look at me like that?" Rajendra can't focus on being stared at, "I mean that you want something from me. Just tell me what you want and I'll give you. What do you want hm?" Rajendra shifts his laptop, doing the same thing as Ignacia.

"I just want to look at you. Can you grant that?"

"Would I just get you a pillow? Putting your head on a hard table is uncomfortable."

"Rajendra, just do it. I'll just shut up and not bother you."

Just for Ignacia alone or Rajendra is trying hard so that he feels comfortable? Though Ignacia did nothing and just wanted to look at her lover. But that gaze was still interpreted as something else since then.

Silent.

Rajendra did his job as quickly as possible in order to relax immediately while Ignacia was still staring at him. Let the task remain neglected. Just a little less. Last night he did some of his work.

"Ignacia, use this." A sofa cushion is proffered by Rajendra on her lover. Her sweet eyes were still open and staring since then. "You can get dizzy if you stay in that position. Just put it on."

Ignacia did not refuse. Wearing a pillow while staring at the pleasant scenery were two things he liked at the moment. When else could Rajendra see so busy for the convenience of Ignacia who had just been silent. Who had not demanded anything.

Ten minutes passed. There's no talk of anything.

"Ignacia, you want another cold drink? Will-" Rajendra's words came to a standstill when he saw what her lover was doing. A smile appeared at the corner of Rajendra's lips. His hands stretched out to get rid of the haircut that covered the peaceful face of Ignacia. A face that looks so pretty to her.

"Are you bored to sleep?" Rajendra stopped his hand in the air, unable to pull it back.

"I'm sorry for making you so uncomfortable all this time, Ignacia. I was too busy and could not share my time well. In the past before becoming the chairman of MPK, I said that my expertise is to be able to manage time for the organization. But I seem to be exaggerating too much. I'm sorry."

Ignacia certainly did not hear Rajendra's confession. The girl has entered her own world.

"Even when you're with me, I still fail to take good care of you. I bore you and ended up falling asleep like this." Rajendra put his head in the same position as Ignacia. Look at the eyes that no longer look at him. "What are you dreaming about?"

"When I asked you to study date. But you fall asleep without adding any answers to your task. Today failed, right?" Rajendra memonologist. His hand has been taken back. Stored under the table.

"But there are other plans."

...*****...

Ignacia woke up from a deep sleep. There is a good aroma that bursts into the sense of smell. Looks like someone's cooking. His eyes opened, not finding Rajendra. The man's laptop was closed as if he had finished the task.

His eyes were now searching for a wall clock, figuring out how long he had been asleep. Oh it's been almost 1 hour. Of course Rajendra is done. Where did this good smell come from? Rajendra's cooking something in the kitchen?

Ignacia rubbed her still sleepy eyes. "Can I go into the kitchen?" Ignacia asked herself. The girl put her couch on the couch, tried to get up and call her boyfriend who had gone somewhere.

"Rajendra, where are you?" This house that is too quiet makes ordinary speech sounds loud.

"I'm here. Come here, Ignacia," the voice from the kitchen said. Ignacia hesitated to go deeper, but the quiet living room scared her too. It feels so foreign to be here. Plus the fact that there are only two of them at home. It feels strange and awkward.

"You just woke up? I've prepared lunch. I cooked it myself." Rajendra sounded very confident in his last sentence. He was busy cleaning dirty cookware when Ignacia came. He became so busy in front of his girlfriend who was still sleepy.

"You've been cooking it since? Why not wake me up? I slept a long time."

"Let me wake up, but you look tired. Did you read a lot of novels last night?" Rajendra put the clean cookware into place, "it looks like there's a lot you did last night."

Ignacia pulled up a chair, sat down and watched Rajendra without responding. His sleepiness had already disappeared after staring at his lover. He was barely even aware of the food that had been neatly arranged on the table.

"Let's eat," Rajendra began with a smile. Both plans might work.

...*****...

"Why don't you just take Ignacia home? You guys won't mess around when you're alone at home. Make him lunch if he wants to date at home." The mother turned back, looking at her third child.

"You want to write down how to make good food? Just name the food." The mother's eyebrows in the up and down, tempting Rajendra who looks wrong behavior. His son is in love, so he needs a little help.

"If the practice is now what can't? I was afraid to make a mistake when he came."

"Yes, let's do it. What food do you want to make for her?"

...*****...

"I want to help," Ignacia walked with small steps toward Rajendra, "I can also wash the dishes. The time I just ate and let you wash the dishes?"

"Why not? How about helping me charge the laptop in the living room? Looks like I left it when the battery ran out." Ignacia did not protest. He went straight back to the guest house and did as he was asked.

The sound of a motorcycle was heard from the front of the house. Not from the front of the house, but from the house in front. Ignacia approached the window, looking at who was coming. Oh apparently someone who is known to Ignacia.

Ignacia was no longer interested. After charging Rajendra's laptop, he returned to the kitchen. Found Rajendra drying his hands. "Thank you for helping me. Do you want ice cream? I bought it before you came."

"I saw Feby in front," interrupted Ignacia when Rajendra was about to open the refrigerator. Rajendra did not want to respond. The vanilla-flavored ice cream that Ignacia usually eats and takes her girl back to the living room.

Ignacia tailed behind.

The two almost arrived at the living room. Suddenly there was a knock from the door. "It seems you have a guest, Rajendra," whispered Ignacia from behind.

Rajendra doesn't remember waiting for anyone.

Ignacia was still following when Rajendra would open the door. With each ice cream, the two walked towards the door. Open it slowly and find-friends who are classmates with Rajendra.

There are three people.

Ignacia peered over Rajendra's high shoulder. Appear like a chicken. The existence of the girl makes three friends Rajendra confused and look at each other. Giving a strange code.

"What are you two doing?" Ask a woman.

Oh yea! Rajendra forgets that his friends will be taking Manila papers for group assignments!

"It looks like we came at the wrong time" said another female friend. He smiled strangely at his two friends,
