After ordering food and sitting back in the empty chair, Carolina ate the hodgepodge she ordered greedily. It has been two weeks since he last ate hodgepodge that suits his taste, he several times ordered hodgepodge online, but the hodgepodge owned by the canteen's mother remains the best, in addition to the hodgepodge made by his mother.
Carolina was just about to put a cracker that had dipped peanut seasoning into her mouth, but suddenly some people started sitting next to her, Carolina glanced at them a glance before finally deciding not to care.
It is common for someone to share a table in the cafeteria, especially when the canteen is again crowded because of lunch hour, but usually those who do not get a seat have known the person who got the seat first before deciding to join.
It is rare for a person who does not get a chair to sit at the table of an unknown person, unless that person is really good at getting along and not awkward to meet new people.
Despite only taking a quick look, Carolina knew that she didn't know them, but she didn't mind sharing a table with them at all, as there was a chance that they knew her, she only knew her classmates, anyway, because he's a butterfly student.
“Lo who interns at NamTech, yes?” suddenly the woman sitting next to him asked.
No. Don't tell me...
“Ah, yes,” even though the hunch is already bad, Carolina still answered them.
“Lo really see Ethan?” ask one of them again.
The satan! The red apple again!
Carolina kept silent and continued to eat her hodgepodge, she even deliberately slowed her chewing motion.
“Yes,” Carolina replied after swallowing her food, but the women had not yet asked again, Carolina had put her food back in her mouth.
“We ask for help, dong,” said one of them again.
While chewing, Carolina looked back at the five people sitting at the table and the three people standing nearby. Carolina frowned slightly, their faces looking old and not as innocent as the faces of the five women before, so Carolina came to the conclusion that they were already in their third or fourth year.
But engineering faculty usually only have a few women if it is in the final semester, for example, their class in the Informatics Engineering study program, the remaining women are only 5 people, in other programs also average the same number, there are no up to 8 people.
But Carolina's gaze was fixed on the yellow rubber band worn by 3 of them, the economics faculty bracelet!
Don't tell me they're students from economics faculty!
Did they even look for him in the building and canteen of the engineering faculty to ask about the red apple?!
“Ask what please? Oh yeah, the fecon child does not have a canteen so you can play to the canteen fatek?” ask Carolina. When he found out they weren't a faculty member with him, he didn't have to bother to act “baik”, did he? After all if they say he is not good, surely fatek children will not believe because they are from among “luar”.
“Means lo?” suddenly one of the women who stood up, was offended by what Carolina had said.
His friend who was sitting opposite Carolina who had just been quiet, looked at the woman as if to signal to be kind and not look for a commotion, he then looked at Carolina and said,
“Umm... later on the company confirmation sheet you will write Ethan's name, right? As company leader?”
When interning, the attestation sheet is one of the important parts that must be on the internship report. Its function is to confirm that the intern has done internship from start to finish accompanied by proof of report.
On the sheet, there must be a signature from the manager or leader of the company, and finally must be stamped with a company stamp.
But Carolina has yet to decide whether she should make the format for the company's manager or leader, which she'll think about later, as her report doesn't yet exist. Carolina explained this to them.
“Formatnya made with company leader name, dong!” say one more, begging a little.
Carolina just stared at them and ate back her food.
Who is formatting my report?
“Ehem,” the woman who was sitting opposite Carolina coughed for a while, before continuing, “If you want to write Ethan's name, we can ask for his autograph, right? All write our names, this is a list of our names,” he said then issued a paper containing a list of their names.
Seeing this, Carolina finally realized that they asked for help to get a special signature. The red apple should probably have to write down the dear plus their name, and finally give a signature, probably along with the date of the day he signed the paper.
“Sorry yes, I can't,” replied Carolina resisting in a subtle tone, hoping they understand and don't bother her anymore.
“But spy! We're asking for help, too!” one of them suddenly felt annoyed that Carolina had rejected them. But Carolina just kept quiet and kept eating her hodgepodge, she even accidentally took the crackers with her hands, dipped them in peanut butter, and ate them.
The woman who was sitting opposite Carolina just smiled understandably, before standing up from her seat, she said, “This is a paper list of our names yes, any time you change your mind and can help us. We are very fans of Ethan because, let our friends back,”
“They who? You okay?” just as Carolina was about to return to enjoying her hodgepodge, Andrew, who saw the women already gone, sat in the chair opposite to her.
“Don't know, just sat down earlier,” replied Carolina origin and speed up her speed to chew food in her mouth.
Andrew just kept quiet, there was something different about Carolina, was she mad at him?
“I first, yes,” said Carolina after spending her hodgepodge.
“You want to go back to Indekos? Come on, I'm anterin,” bargain Andrew
Carolina glanced at the weather outside that looked hot, “Yaudah, yuk,” she finally replied.
Although he does not like Andrew at the moment, rather than him having to ride a motorcycle and spend money, mending all of him delivered with Andrew. After all, it was Andrew himself who offered, not him who asked to be delivered!
“It's just my feeling,” thought Andrew thought there was something wrong with Carolina,
“Come, my motorbike is parked there,”, Andrew said with a smile.

“I went back first, yes,” said Andrew when Carolina had stepped off his bike.
“Yes, be careful,” replied Carolina then go straight inside.
“Eh, Ra, have you been a long time?” asked Carolina who was surprised when she saw Clara and one woman waiting for her in front of her room.
“Ah, not really,” replied Clara who had not waited long for Carolina.
“Tumben you came here, why not chat first?” caroline asked stalely while looking for her room key.
“Udah chat kok, but said Riko lo again mobbed by children fekon,” said Clara who had previously asked Riko if she saw Carolina on campus, Riko simply replied with a photo of Carolina in the cafeteria mobbed by other women.
“Ah yes, I have not held a mobile phone. Come on in,” Carolina said after opening her bedroom door.
“We just not long anyway, here aja,” reject Clara.
“Oh okay, keep you why come here? Uh! Your clothes? Still at the laundry, Ra. I have not taken it,” said Carolina who can only think of the reason that made Clara come to visit him.
Could it be that he needed to wear the clothes he had lent at the hotel club when they were in Bali?
“Not! His clothes are fine, too. So gini..” said Clara again who deliberately hung her words because confused what to say.
“Wah, really, Ra. Similar!” suddenly the woman who came with Clara said, she looked at her cell phone screen and then saw Carolina's face.
“Yee, so you think you lied to me, huh?” ask Clara. The woman just grinned.
“What's up?” ask the confused Carolina.
“Ah, actually I came here because of this photo,” said Clara finally then showed the screen of the woman's mobile phone.
Carolina saw the photo, it was a photo of the red apple with the student wearing the Smart University alma mater that Carolina saw as five third-semester women confronted her, but it seemed that the photo was a little different from the one he had seen earlier.
Hold still…
Why does my face look so clear in this photo?!
Shouldn't my face be blurred, huh?!
