"What's wrong?" ask Carolina again when they've been away from Riko.
The five women pushed each other, before one of them asked.
"How was "Ethan oppa? More handsome, no? His face is shining, isn't it?" ask one of the women.
Carolina looked at them with a confused look.
Ethan oppa's?
Wh who?
Looking at Carolina who was silent, the woman who confronted her said, "Do not pretend not to know! You interned at NamTech, right?"
Carolina did not like the woman's tone at all, but she glanced sideways for a moment and saw Riko was still there. He finally put a smile back on his face.
"Yes, I'm an intern at NamTech, but I don't know who Ethan is" Carolina replied honestly. He even just memorized the name of Andi who is his supervisor in the Andi team and had forgotten the name of the HRD staff acquaintance sir David. Who the hell is Ethan?
"Is he the security guard I met in front of the office, huh?" thought Carolina again, but she immediately shook her head, why also these children call the security guard in front of the office as oppa.
"Son Carol doesn't know? This is sis," the woman who greeted Riko gave her cell phone.
Carolina was a little hesitant at first, but she ended up picking up the phone.
"Oh so she's Ethan they mean," thought Carolina who saw a picture of a man in a suit and with red hair. Come to think of it, he had no idea what the man's name was. He only found out from the email address provided by the man.
Carolina then glanced down to read the news.
BREAKING NEWS'S

Carolina's eyes then turned to the comments

Bunda_kabade: "See from the interior lobby and comments above, this is NamTech company, dech"
Rahma_Hariyanto: "INFO photo blur is an apprentice of intelligent university engineering faculty. I am curious about fotox dm. I sent it"
Nining_Fahira_9271: "Ethan oppa is required to play a role in the drama! Like agreed!"
Carolina who has not seen the photo meant by the person commenting, looks back at the post and is aware that there are 2 photos attached.
After looking at the photo, he finally recalled the old man who was with him in the lobby that day.
"Damn! It was paparazzi. By the way, the red apple's a celebrity, huh?" thought Carolina again, who could already guess what situation was going on.
"Where? You're in that picture, right?" ask one more woman.
Carolina finally nodded, with the evidence that was on the sosmed, she could not dodge by making excuses, she said, after all, they must have come looking for him because they found out first and he was the only one who interned at NamTech company.
"Are you really in the photo? You really want to see Ethan oppa directly?" ask one of them again.
Carolina nodded again. Even if he said no, they would definitely not believe it, so it was better that he just admit it.
"Jinjj*? The omo! Ottoke*have*! Ottok! Ottoke!" suddenly one of them who had just been silent\, became hysterical.
(*Jinjja= Really?
Ottoke = how this, a kind of phrase when again confused to do something)
The woman, who had been behind, came forward and held Carolina's hand.
"Eonni*\, can I also join Eonni to NamTech\, hm\, jebal*?" he said that he still clasped Carolina's hand and looked at Carolina with a pleading gaze.
(Eonni = female calls for older women
Jebal = Please / please)
Seeing one of their friends pleading with Carolina, the others also began to follow along.
"Eonni" they said, including the woman who confronted Carolina. Although at first the woman looks prestigious to do so.
Carolina who did understand Korean could only sigh. He can already guess that they watch too many Korean dramas see from the style of speech that began to korea-korean.
Carolina finally knew that this was the reason those who seemed hesitant when asked by Riko. Riko is famous on campus for being a frequent organizer, and she is also famous for not liking women who idolize South Korean artists.
He's just an intern in the IT department, not the red apple room.
Even though he knew the room of the red apple and had even entered it. He chose not to tell them about it and would not let them go with him.
How will his image be in NamTech if he brings an uninterested person to join him into the office?
"Eonni, jebal, take us to the lobby," said the woman who was still begging. Carolina raised her eyebrows, if they just wanted to get into the lobby, wouldn't they just go in? Like him yesterday?
Looking at the seemingly confused Carolina, one of them explained.
"Say NamTech is currently not allowing outsiders to enter without making an appointment first" he said.
Well, then, it's none of my business.
"I'm sorry, but I can't. I'll go first, yeah!" seeing those who seemed like they were going to continue begging, Carolina immediately ran over to Riko.
"Why? What's going on?" riko asked as Carolina ran over to him.
"Udah let's go" said Carolina who immediately pulled Riko.
Seeing Riko who was on the side of Carolina, the five women no longer chased after her.

"Huf... Huft.." Andrew set his breath when he got to the front of the lecturer room. He looks at the surroundings but can't find Riko or Carolina.
"Did they fight somewhere else, huh?" thought Andrew.
"Bro, you see Riko or Carol, don't you?" asked Andrew when someone was about to enter the lecturer room.
"So I saw them again looking for the dean" said the man.
"Oh okay, thanks," said Andrew.
"It seems like he's okay, thank God!" inner Andrew then after thinking back, he decided to go back to the cafeteria, waiting for Riko who would definitely go to the cafeteria and ask about the incident.

"Where are you going after this? Want to go straight back to Index?" riko asked, when she and Carolina had entered their copy of KRS to activate their academic registration.
Carolina glanced at the watch on her phone screen, 11:45.
"I think I'm going to eat in the cafeteria first, how are you?" ask Carolina.
"Sama, yaudah yuk together," said Riko.
The two eventually walked together towards the canteen of the engineering faculty.
During the trip, Riko occasionally glanced at Carolina who seemed to be worried about the surrounding environment, but Riko who was basically indifferent, did not ask the reason why Carolina seemed was was. That's none of his business.
Ever since meeting the five women and finding out why they were looking for her, Carolina has become alarmed. He did not know whether the red apple is an idol or an actor, but saw from the number of comments on the social media post was not 24 hours. Carolina could have guessed that the red apple was popular.
Although his face was blur in the photo of the post, but his identity can be said to have been found out. So he was a little wastes when walking, afraid that there would be more to block him and ask for help like that.
The five women luckily did not play physical when she refused their request, what if she met the fans who were bar-bars? Who will play physically for refusing their request.
"Hey bro!" greet Riko when she sees Andrew sitting with his other friends.
"Yuk, Carol," asked Riko to sit down with Andrew and the others.
"Ah, I think I'm sitting there. I don't like cigarette smoke" said Carolina, looking for an excuse. He was currently not in the mood to always smile in front of Andrew, given that it was the man who put something in his drink. So he decided to sit at another empty table, so he had no problem eating alone.
"Oh, okay," said Riko then approached the table Andrew and others.
"There, this is Carol's chair" said one of the people at the table, holding one of the empty seats.
"Because you're smoking, he won't come here. I'm lucky I'm loyal friends want to sit here," replied Riko who immediately seized the chair.
While Andrew only glanced at Carolina for a moment, he decided to ask Riko the incident first before finally approaching Carolina.
"Gue doesn't really know what happened, anyway," said Riko later recounted the incident.
Andrew just kept quiet, then stood up from his seat and intended to approach Carolina. But he was shocked when he saw that the 5 empty seats on the table were already occupied by others, and there were three others standing near them.
“What exactly happened? Is Carol in the bully?” andrew thought worried.
