Beautiful Monster
Small Attention

"Ignacia, I'll do something, wait a minute," Rajendra's permission then rose after getting approval. Whether to go where, Ignacia was not told.

Rajendra went out of the room, looking for his roommate who he said was watching tv in the living room along with the owner of the boarding house and other friends. Because of the ball show, so everyone is excited and nervous at the same time. Share when Rajendra just comes the aura is no fun.

"Bagas," call Rajendra, "can I borrow your phone for a second?"

Bagas who did not care just nodded. Opened the pattern of his cell phone and then gave it to a roommate. Bagas knew that Rajendra would not mess around. Let him use it for a while.

"May I just take her to my room?" ask Rajendra for a few minutes. Bagas nodded back. Even he doesn't mind when Rajendra takes his phone away. Bagas focus only on the television screen until... THE GOAL!

Everyone's favorite team in the room finally scored the goal that made them the winner. The game is not over. There are still other rounds to be won.

Upon Rajendra's return from the outdoors, Ignacia was still in front of the laptop. Now it seems to be revising what he just did. He checked his laptop and notebook several times. Unaware of Rajendra's return secretly.

Rajendra didn't say anything, he ducked, typed something. Occasionally glanced at Ignacia to make sure that the girl was still with him. Rajendra smiled slightly, Ignacia's face looking cute even though Rajendra shouldn't have thought so.

"I've always liked your serious face" said Rajendra.

Rajendra switched on the laptop for a bit. Because you cannot use your phone, another way to contact someone is through a link on your laptop. The friend he was aiming for should have replied to him quickly. Harapak Rajendra is only on that guy.

"Rajendra, I'm bored," complains Ignacia, her face exhausted, "but her job is still a lot. Though the replay came a few weeks ago. Why are there so many tasks now?"

"Maybe to add value? Hey excited. After this semester is over, we can go home and date."

Rajendra typed something on the laptop that was on his lap while giving a sweet smile to Ignacia. Yeah who doesn't get back excited when getting such a soothing sight? Ignacia nodded and then returned to work.

"By the way, Ignacia, what hostel do you live in? I thought there was a name for a dorm on your campus," Rajendra asked as if it was nothing. Though the reason is because the friend he relies on does not immediately send an answer.

"Lily's House. Why ask?"

"I heard that living in the dormitory still has to go through several stages. You must have completed that stage well because you were in a good dorm" Rajendra said. He hurriedly turned off the laptop back, switching to Bagas' phone.

"Ignacia, I'm starting to feel hungry. How're you? Is there something you want to eat? I want to make another video call while we're eating."

Ignacia seemed to think for a while, she could not answer not wanting to eat anything or wanting to eat Fitbar alone. "I can't think about food right now. What do you want to eat?" Ignacia asked back.

"Maybe processed noodles?"

"That sounds delicious. I'll buy it later after my job is done. Just a little more."

Both continue their activities. And finished at about the same time. Ignacia finally felt free. Share the tasks already collected some time ago.

"Rajendra, do you still want to make video calls? What if I just move it to my laptop? My phone needs to be charged immediately."

Rajendra will not refuse. What she wants to keep her lover healthy despite being in a distant place. This video call is just to make sure.Mama Ignacia had told if her first child did not contact often. Rajendra was the one who found out.

"We'll do it after you clean up, Ignacia. Call me when you're done."

Ignacia stretched herself like a cat laying on the floor. The long haired girl finally finished her task well and it was not too late. Now he must clean up immediately in order to get back in touch with Rajendra.

The girl tidied up the book and her laptop, charged the phone, grabbed the towel and went into the bathroom. Either because now he doesn't have any dependents or because Rajendra will call him back soon. This flowing water felt warmer than before.

...*****...

A knocking sound rang out, distracting Ignacia from the towel on her head to the bedroom door. The sound of knocking came back as if telling the inside that he was not being misheard. Who knocks on the door at night? There is a feeling if the culprit is Danita.

"What's up?" And Ignacia's guess is correct.

The short-haired girl on the doorstep offered a parcel, she said, sending someone food. "A delivery boy asked me to send it to someone named Ignacia. That guy even mentioned your full name, Ignacia."

Before Ignacia could say anything, Danita cut. "Said the man who ordered this is in another town. The sender's name is 'Rowl'. Maybe your friend has a pseudonym? Or maybe from your boyfriend?" The second option seems right, maybe this is the reason why Rajendra asked about her dorm name.

"All right, thank you." He was brought to the food that Danita had given him. It was put on the table where Ignacia would make another video call with Rajendra. It's been an hour. Did Rajendra really send him?

Ignacia grabbed her phone, directly connecting to the video call. It took at least two minutes for someone there to be called. The person's face immediately flashed when he saw what his lover had brought.

"You sent this?" Ignacia immediately knew the answer as soon as she saw Rajendra's big smile and nod. So the question asked by the man had something to do with the arrival of this food. In the right place and time.

"I'll make sure you eat well" said Rajendra, "I'll eat with you from here."

Ignacia's heart warmed, a happy smile formed in just a few seconds. Who doesn't melt if he gets the attention of the busy master? Now Ignacia felt very loved.

If only eating, the two might only look at each other while chewing, it was not exciting. Occasionally there is a funny story inserted so as not to be lonely. After all the two are both alone, borrowing time as if the two are really together is not wrong, right?

More Rajendra tells the truth, for some reason the life of this handsome-faced man is so funny with his male friends. Maybe because they are both away from home and happy to make new friends in this faraway place.

"Why would he like someone? Isn't everyone always happy to be in such a position?" Ignacia bites her fork while waiting for Rajendra's answer.

"I've known him for a long time. We chatted a lot and he sounded like someone who had a secret lover. He told me something about a love affair. But she claims she's never dated."

Rajendra stops there and then turns to discussing other things. Ignacia could not get into the next topic, she became confused with the friend Rajendra had mentioned earlier. Usually people who really have not dated do not know romantic relationships.

Maybe because he saw a lot of couples, Ignacia thought.

...*****...

Danita shows her phone screen to her lover, "do you like it? I choose a place based on what the four of us like. My friend likes it, so I'm really excited. He said it fits their type."

Her lover just nods, wherever her lover goes, she will love it. They will not double date all day. And in the presence of energy from Danita, awkwardness may not be felt.

"Do I need to help you prepare something?" the man asked. Letting Danita do everything made her feel bad. Danita shook her head, explaining that she and Ignacia had prepared everything.

"Oh yeah, what if you're friends with my friend's girlfriend? Maybe you can be best friends like me and him. Maybe next time we can double date again." This one isn't over yet and Danita is planning on going on another date?

The lover ruffled the girl's hair, "you are so full of passion. But you also have to make them comfortable when dating. Remember if we're not just the two of us."

"Of course I know," Danita pulled back her hand, "I planned this just so you could get to know my friend and her lover. You'll know why he's special to me later."

Danita's eyes stopped looking at her lover as if saying something. Suddenly the light was no longer as bright as before. "I don't really understand why my feelings for Ignacia could suddenly appear. I want you to find out as well so I can understand."

...*****...

"What did you borrow my phone for?" Bagas checked his phone, check if there might be something different. Rajendra wears it long enough, arousing suspicion from who lends it. "Are you ransacking my phone?"

"I used your delivery messaging app to deliver food. I helped the money through the app. I didn't open anything else" Rajendra said at the end of the sentence. The man who is busy cleaning his food is also not interested in opening the privacy of his friend. Rajendra got up, carrying a package of food to throw away.

Bagas opens a short messaging app, checking someone's roomchat while their roommate is away. There hasn't been any sign online since midnight. Luckily, this guy didn't send a message. Rajendra will not find a new message accidentally.

Turning to the delivery messaging app, Bagas wanted to know what food his friend had ordered. Wah Bagas did not expect that his friend could do this. Not because of the food or the price, but at the address of this food is derived and intended. Rajendra was too extreme for him.

"What do you use my food app for?" bagas asked as soon as Rajendra came with a glass of water.

"Send food to Ignacia" said Rajendra. Why should you also tell me the details of the activity?

Bagas no longer spoke. He put down his phone and grabbed his towel. He should wash his face and go to sleep because tomorrow he has a plan with himself. A new bag will come out the door when a voice comes out of the phone on the bed.

"It looks like your lover is sending you a message" Rajendra said.

"You don't make it up." Even so, Bagas did something that was opposite to his words. Near her phone to check if the message came the same as she thought. The fact that a smile appeared on Bagas' face already answered everything.

"Who is this girl? Is he one of your friends?" Rajendra asked as if he didn't care. His intention was just to tease a friend who seemed to already have insight. "Did you meet her by accident?"

"What are you talking about? Forget it," Bagas' tone became sharpened. Rajendra knew if the anger was not based it was just made up to keep himself quiet. Bagas left the room, closed the door perfectly.

"Can't I know?" decih Rajendra was upset, "what might have happened if I knew who he liked? I'm sure he's a normal guy."

Rajendra grabs the phone on the nightstand next to the study desk, checking the phone's power before using it. But forget it. His day ran out due to a long chat with Ignacia. Rajendra has no regrets, at least tomorrow they will be able to meet after all this time.

...*****...

Someone opened his wardrobe in confusion. What clothes should she wear, what hairstyle she will make, and whether tomorrow she can resist to not look strange in front of her lover. The clothes he bought while in his new town alone felt like nothing was a match.

"Hey your lover won't come home right away after seeing you in the clothes you choose" Danita said. Yeah how else? Ignacia was too worried to the point that choosing everything just couldn't.

The long-haired girl knocked on her door trembling, feeling awkward to ask for help when Danita would gladly help. Danita assumed that Ignacia was just embarrassed because she had never asked for help while she knew him.

Ignacia's ears could only hear her muttering as Danita spoke. He was busy opening the closet to keep looking for clothes while weighing. "What clothes should I wear tomorrow? Then what about the double date the day after."

Danita got up from the floor, approaching Ignacia's closet. His hand slowly grabbed a brown dominant colored shirt. "You may not know, you match brown. You look so much sweeter. Try."

The short-haired girl put the shirt she was carrying onto Ignacia's body, "your lover will definitely love it. He only cares about meeting you instead of the clothes you're going to wear."

Ignacia grabbed the proffered shirt. If you remember, when Ignacia wore brown clothes when visiting Rananta, Rajendra looked at her strangely. Did Rajendra pay attention to what Ignacia was wearing? The guy never talked about it.

The girl looked at herself in the mirror, wondering if she would wear Rajendra's favorite color of ice cream. The brown color is good, it matches her white self. Her hair can be simply stroked or tied up simply.

"All right, I'll wear it" Ignacia broke up.
