Rental Girlfriend
Invitation

"Present Bright University's Annual Event: Dance Party With Cash Prizes! Invite Your Spouse Immediately, Achieve the Title of King and Queen of the Party, And You Have a Chance To Win The Cash Prize! Wait Especially!"

Such is the sound of an electronic invitation that goes into the mobile phones of students at a campus called Bright University simultaneously.

One of the interested students named Kiara Pratama. The girl read the dance invitations many times as if she did not believe her sense of sight. "I have to go to this dance, Re!"

"Did you read the terms? Must have a partner in order to get the title King and Queen of the Party. If there is no king, who will be king? Be aware! You don't have a lover, Kiara!" sahut Renatha, the girl's best friend.

Kiara pouted her lips. At the age of almost touching the head of 2, a Kiara Pratama has not had a lover. Let alone a lover, his social life is very far from what he dreamed of first.

Since her father's business went out of business, Kiara's family has been living a makeshift life and relies solely on her father's monthly salary, who currently works as a regular employee at someone else's company.

To save money, Kiara's mother, who used to belong to an elite socialite group, now has to crouch inside the house and do housework.

Luckily, Kiara managed to get an outstanding student scholarship so that her parents did not have to worry about their daughter's semester tuition fees.

Because of this, Kiara shuts herself away from her friends and tends to be quiet. Renatha is the only friend Kiara has kept until now.

"Re, if I'm looking for a lover starting today, I guess I can't, huh? The party's next week, I'm just interested in the word cash!" Kiara. He then looked at the male friends he had a classmate with whom he rarely noticed and suddenly, he ruffled his hair violently. "No way, huh?"

Renatha who used to be called Rere by Kiara just shook her head at the behavior of her friend.

They both fell silent, feeling they had not found any solution. Suddenly, Rere kicked the table tight enough to make him complain and shake his hand. "Don't think of my hand, Ra! I have a great idea! You don't have to have a lover to get that title. Today, the era has been very developed until there are services to hire a lover just to accompany to parties, to family events, or just accompany the streets. Well, we can use that service! How's it?"

"How much do you plan? Where can I find such services?" kiara asked.

"Social media!" answer Rere.

Unfortunately at that time the lecturer had entered the class, so they were forced to postpone their discussion. Kiara felt, not only she and Rere were not focused on following the lecture that afternoon. Almost all his friends in the class, no one paid attention to the material delivered by the lecturer.

Yeah, they're all definitely eyeing that cash prize! So thought Kiara. Who wouldn't want cash in these difficult times? Therefore, after the last course was completed, Kiara collected a promise to Rere about the rental lover's services.

"It turns out expensive, Ra," said Rere grimly.

Kiara was agape at the price on her friend's phone screen. "Ih, yes. Why expensive, anyway? Stop, Re! Let's forget about that stupid dance! The sustenance can come from anywhere,"

Renatha felt bad to see her friend disappointed and uninspired. He embraces Kiara's shoulder and discusses other topics to divert his friend's grief.

The next morning, Kiara opened both eyes reluctantly. Then, he recalled the dance party that had canceled him to follow. "Aarrgghhh!"

The sound of his moans made Kiara's mother panic and rushed into the room of her beloved daughter. "You okay, honey?"

Kiara nodded weakly. "I'm fine, Mom. Just feeling bitter,"

Throughout the day, Kiara felt bad for her activities. He wanted to be absent from college that day, but he remembered there were quizzes and absences greatly affected grades. Inevitably, Kiara also left for campus.

Upon arrival at the campus, he was already greeted by Rere whose bright smile on his face overcame his brightness that morning. "Ra! I have good news for you! You say that sustenance is not going anywhere, hehehe! Read this!"

Kiara took out a pamphlet that Rere had thrust at her. Both of his eyes were perfectly rounded and his lower jaw was pulled downwards. "50%, Re! Come on, let's call the number! What's this name? Okay Cupid, hmmm, unique name,"

The dark cloud from yesterday, which was in Kiara's heart, slowly shifted. The girl became excited instantly while reading a pamphlet containing about the promotion of rental lover services.

After entering the classroom, they immediately looked for a seat. Kiara pulled out her phone and before long, the girl's fingers were already running agilely on her phone screen.

But the smile on his face quickly evaporated, as he looked at the nominal given by the service provider. "Still an omnipresent, Re,"

"You have no savings? I'll help his flaws" Rere replied sincerely.

Throughout the course of the day, Kiara kept thinking about her savings. There is a sense of affection if the savings are used only to hire a man as his lover one night. But he thought again. Had he won that cash prize, his savings would have come back.

So after establishing his heart, Kiara also transferred his savings money to a service provider called Angkasa. After the girl sent the proof of transfer, Angkasa informed the place where the next transaction would proceed as well as getting acquainted with Kiara's future lover.

"Starlight Mall, Sunday at 3 p.m. Stay with me, Re," asked Kiara.

Renata gives her thumb a sign of agreeing to Kiara. "OK,"

Sunday has arrived. With her best clothes on, Kiara was getting ready to meet her prospective lover at the mall in the city center.

On the grounds of wanting to do group work with Renatha, Kiara managed to get an exit permit by carrying her duck bike.

Along the way, Kiara and Renatha endlessly talk about Kiara's future lover. How was his face, whether handsome or not, whether friendly or not.

While they were joking and chatting, a luxury car passed them from the shoulder of the road at high speed and nudged the rearview mirror of Kiara's duck. Due to a fairly tight collision, Kiara lost her balance and fell off the bike.

The people who were near them, helped them to stand up and led them to a stop.

The luxury car that hit them earlier also pulled over. The owner of the car, who turned out to be the man, got out of his car. However, he only checked the condition of his car. "Ck! Goddamn bum!"

The man came to Kiara and Rere. "I'm asking for damages! My car was scratched because of you!"

"Who? We should have asked for damages because you drove around and nudged our bike! Our lives are 100 times more valuable than your car!" tukas Kiara hot.

"Who is ugly? Don't you know that my car is a sports car? The speed is above the average of a regular car! It's a shithole if you don't know something like that!" reply the man who turned out to be handsome.

The fighting continued until they were finally secured by the local police. There, they are forced to make peace or they will be locked up for 1x24 hours or pay a fine. Due to limited funds, Kiara decided to apologize to the man.

"Curtain! I dropped my pride just for a selfless man like him! I swear I will never see that selfish man again!" kiara was upset as she walked towards her bike.

"I don't want to either!" reply the man, then he gawked away haughtily.

After checking the condition of the bike and making sure the duck bike can run as before, Kiara and Rere continued their journey to Starlight Mall while continuing to babble and berate the man they had just met.

Upon arrival at Starlight Mall, the two girls immediately headed to the designated place. It's not hard to find a fast food Japanese restaurant at the mall.

The man named Angkasa also looks striking with a pink T-shirt with a cupid picture complete with arrows and the words Oke Cupid on the shirt and the letter O-shaped heart that according to Kiara is quite sweet.

"Hi, Space, huh?" ask Rere to vent.

Space smiled widely. "Definitely Kiara. You're our first client, hopefully a subscription, huh? Hehe! Please sit down, I'm waiting for my friend who's gonna be your girlfriend at the ball later,"

Kiara and Rere looked at each other while smiling faintly from the corner of their lips. Meanwhile, Angkasa describes the man who will be Kiara's lover.

"The name is Blue Ocean. Blue Calling. The man is kind, friendly, and handsome. I'm sure you'll be elected King and Queen at the party" Angkasa said. A few minutes later, he waved his hand at someone. "That's it's coming,"

Kiara and Rere turned their heads together in the direction that the Space index finger pointed at. How shocked Kiara was as the man approached and approached their table.

"Well, here it is. Introduce, this is Blue and this is Kiara" said Angkasa again.

Kiara clenched her teeth. "You! It can't be!"
