Painting Images With Light
The Part 31
Citra question arrows, shot right into the chest of Bagio to penetrate into the back.
Although Bagio did not express what was in his mind, but Citra seemed to be able to know it, just by looking at the face of Bagio alone.
Then, would it be better now, if Bagio confessed?
What will be the response of the image later?
Wouldn't Bagio later just be considered as if he didn't know himself?
"It doesn't matter to me, if it's true. Because I just feel happy, if there are people who can be interested in me, even though they have just met for the first time....
... But the problem is, if you can not control yourself like this morning, then you will only damage your good name later," Citra said.
Bagio could only be silent.
"I told you, if I did your background check, right?! So I know that you are most likely a good young man....
... That way, work well ...! I want to see that you are in line with my expectations, so that you can succeed" Citra continued.
Bagio then nodded his head, slowly.
"Don't be too stiff ...! Just relax ... At the very least, you just think of it as if we both have known each other for a long time. Can, right?!" image said, smiling.
Citra's face is beautiful, so it is more interesting when she smiles widely like that, so that Bagio also smiles to see it.
"What next time, you still want to see me again?" ask Citra.
"Eh?! ... Yes, I want ... But what about you?" With doubt, Bagio asked back.
"Pffhtt ...! Of course I want to too! That's why I asked you," Citra replied, with a small laugh.
Seeing the reaction from Citra, Bagio became a little confident, to try to familiarize himself, and chat with the woman.
"When do you have time?" ask Bagio.
"Oh, yes!" The image did not answer Bagio's question, but rather seemed busy looking at the contents in his bag.
The image then pulled out a box with a picture of a cell phone from inside his bag, and placed it on the table, then shifted it closer to Bagio.
"This is my unused phone" Citra said.
Bagio did not immediately take it, but just stared at the object fixedly.
It seems that the object is still new, because the clear plastic that is wrapping the outer part, seems to still cover all parts of the phone box tightly.
"Didn't you want to? Did I just make you feel offended?" tanya Citra, with an anxious look on her face.
"Eh! That's not it!" answer Bagio hurriedly.
Bagio then took the phone box and looked at it carefully, with a little twist, so that Bagio could see all the parts.
"Thank you! ... But ... I don't know how to wear it" continued Bagio quietly.
The image then returned a big smile. "Have you finished eating? ... Come with me for a minute!"
Bagio nodded his head, then stood up from his seat, following Citra who had stood first.
"You go to the car first!" citra.
Again, Bagio just obey the words from Citra, and continue to step foot into the Citra car parked outside.
Not long after Bagio waited by standing next to Citra's car, the woman was then seen walking out of the restaurant.
"I'll teach you a little bit how to use that phone ... You're not too tired, are you?!" ask Citra.
"Last day, I only worked in two locations" replied Bagio.
"OKay! Just say, if you want to go back to Dorm immediately," Citra said.
"Is there anything I can help you with, Mom? Ma'am?" One of the shopkeepers, immediately greeted Bagio and Citra from behind the glass window, which was almost as tall as the shopkeeper.
"Give her the phone ...!" citra to Bagio.
After Bagio placed the mobile phone box on top of the storefront, Citra then said to the shopkeeper,
"Please insert the starter card! All filled with the pulses a hundred thousand!"
"Ooh ...! Okay! Wait a minute, yeah, Mom! My mother!" The shopkeeper then pointed at the empty seats lined up, and leaned against the wall. "You can just sit there!"
Bagio who was waiting with Citra there, sitting side by side in the chair that the shopkeeper pointed out, to them earlier, then said,
"It looks like I'm just troubling you."
"Bccw ...! Its nothing. Don't think too much. Because I also want to, so that we can be in touch at any time....
... If you have a cell phone, then I do not need to contact Hana, just because I want to talk, or meet you," Citra said.
"One more! You don't have to feel burdened, because of the phone I gave you. I don't need it. All this time, the phone was just lying on the shelf in my studio....
... Sure would be better, if someone finally uses it, right?!" citra continued, seeming to insist, so that Bagio received the phone without the need to feel doubt.
Some time later, the new mobile phone giving Citra for Bagio was finally returned by the shopkeeper, and was ready to be used.
Citra then taught Bagio to use his new phone, while still sitting in the chair in the store.
Apparently using the phone, it is not as difficult as the initial assumption of Bagio, and easily Bagio can immediately understand what Citra taught him.
Starting from how to call, send short messages, to how to use the WhatsApp application to connect online.
It's not just that.
Citra also teaches how to use Instagram and Facebook social media, as well as by creating a new account for Bagio.
When Citra taught Bagio how to put a profile photo on the social media account of the recently-finished Bagio, there were other things that attracted the attention of Bagio, in addition to the business about his new phone.
Is it possible that Citra also has the same feelings, like the feelings of Bagio to the woman?
Bagio was not fantasizing, to be able to think about such a thing, right now.
In the image storage application on the Citra phone, it looks to display some photos of Bagio there.
But it's not just feeling too confident.
At first, Bagio suspected that Citra deliberately kept photos of all the models, which had been photographed by him.
But, after Bagio took a good look at the Citra phone screen, Bagio could confirm one thing.
Among the photos that he can see on the screen of the Citra phone, there are only images of Citra taking pictures alone, or pictures of her taken together with her friends.
Only the image of Bagio that looks different from the other images, because in the photo it is a picture of Bagio who is alone.
It was as if the photos of Bagio were special enough for Citra, until she kept them on her personal phone.
And more interestingly, the photos of Bagio are not just photos when Bagio wears a swimsuit, which is deliberately photographed for advertising.
There are several photos of Bagio standing near the Citra house guardrail, which of course, Citra means taking a picture of the Bagio, unbeknownst to Bagio.
However, Bagio did not want to ask questions about his curiosity to Citra.
Because at this time, Citra must not be aware that Bagio can see the contents of his phone, because he is too busy teaching Bagio how to use a mobile phone.
And according to Bagio, if only he asked, it would probably only make the situation between himself and Citra, feel awkward.
That way, Bagio chose to lock his mouth tightly, and pretend as if he did not see or know, the pictures of himself that Citra took without permission.
