When the Creature Falls in Love

A Honesty

"Eh, it's Leon with Rara! I think they won the challenge this time! They can get that much stuff, huh?" exclaimed one of the male disciples while pointing towards them.

Everyone who seemed to be waiting for the arrival of Leon and Rara turned their heads at the same time. Some students have completed the challenge in less than an hour. Because well, 50 thousand money in this day and age can get what? Especially for children who are accustomed to getting guaranteed pocket money from their parents. Of course, for them the challenge was quite difficult.

Unlike most students, the two people made the most of the time they were given. Although they do not hold a penny, but it does not make them then whine and give up just like that. Hence, they came last. And again, the results are not so disappointing, are they?

Jovita gaped in disbelief. Feeling cheated, he immediately approached them and checked what items they brought. He had assumed the bag was just a hoax. But, after looking at the contents, he still could not believe it.

"You guys, how can you get so much stuff?" ask the girl a little shocked. He was not even aware of what he was doing.

Jovita was digging his own grave.

That certainly raises a question mark in Leon's mind. "Kok lo kayak not seneng so anyway, I can excel at the challenge this time?" leon asked back to make Jovita too busy looking for answers.

Meanwhile, Rara who was from the beginning suspected the girl, so not so surprised. Jovita's nervous and frightened reaction was enough to give his suspicions an answer.

Jovita laughed at me. "Ah, where am I like that? You're thinking ugly, huh!" he hit Leon's shoulder repeatedly. "Let me help you get this over there, yeah!" woo Jovita to get Leon to distract from what makes the guy suspect his attitude.

Leon did not have time to argue or agree, Jovita like lightning that grabbed the bag of crackle from his hand. And so soon he had brought the results of his purchase to the lecturer.

"No, nothing weird, huh?" muttered Leon while scratching his head at the back.

"We should also go there," asked Rara so that Leon did not just think about what he said before. For Rara, it's enough she knows that Jovita is not a real 'just friend' person for Leon.

"Hm, yes," said Leon briefly. Her face still implied confusion as she followed Rara away to gather with the other friends.

And that worries Rara a little.

In front of the lecturer, several items from each group had already been collected and labeled the owner's name. Some buy traditional food, groceries, snacks, some even buy panties. They all did it to win the challenge this time. But, judging from any angle, the belongings of Leon and Rara's group seemed to be more.

"Good work all of you!" said the professor with pride. "Where was your experience? It's easy not to bargain?"

"Difficult, Sir!" yell some people. Others do not answer because they only buy according to the price offered by the seller without bidding first.

While Leon and Rara did not take the vote because they basically did not do the practice. It is far from material.

"Gue felt sinful because he did not speak honestly with the lecturer," muttered Rara staring straight at the ongoing event.

"Gue too" said Leon. "What if we talked to the teacher? I'm sure he'll understand our position."

"No problem. After all, lecturer, we must be honest. Because honesty is the key to long-term success. Inget, right? Shouldn't be a lecturer too concerned about this. Let me explain to the lecturer."

Rara shrugged her shoulders in response. For him who explains will not be a problem. After all, it will not change the reality that exists as well. But, the longer Rara is with Leon, the less bad she feels. Rara could see that Leon was a pretty fun guy. No wonder he was known as the Creator. Apparently not only looks, his heart and battle are full of charm.

The final result of the challenge will only be announced if Leon does not take it.

"What's up, Leon?" ask the lecturer in wonder.

"There's something I'd like to explain a little. Is it okay, sir?"

"Oh, can-can. Please!"

Leon took a slightly to the middle position in order to be heard by everyone concerned without exception.

"Sorry, everybody. I asked for a minute to tell a story. Previously, I just wanted to remind that what I did was based on a message from the lecturer to be honest in the challenge this time," Leon said a little ask for support from the lecturer.

The lecturer also seemed to nod in understanding. As for the other students, don't ask anymore. Of course they scramble to speak up in support of what their idol wants to do.

"Today, Rara and I did not follow the challenge procedure as the lecturer directed. When we went shopping, the money was gone. But, thanks to an idea from Rara, we helped a trader in the market on condition of rewarding us some goods. That's how we ended up getting that much stuff. So, in fact we did not practice the materials brought in for the challenge at all this time. I, as a team representative, apologized to Mr. Lecturer. If you don't mind, please Lecturer be generous by not punishing us. That's all I want to say. Thank you." Thank you." Leon retreated and returned to his original place after nodding respectfully at the lecturer.

"Give an applause for Nak Leon and Rara" said the lecturer with a gaze that implied a pride of its own.

They also follow what is the instruction of the lecturer.

"I admire your compact cooperation as a team. Losing the only source of money does not necessarily make you despair and give up just like that. But you guys rack your brains and end up coming up with an idea to sell services so you can get all this. Once you have succeeded you have not forgotten my message to act honestly. You decide to tell the truth, but if you don't explain I won't be suspicious at all. But you chose not to hide it. I salute that very much. The perfect job!" The lecturer praised Leon and Rara endlessly. "So, there's no need to ask anymore, the winner of this challenge is Leon and Rara's team."

Everyone applauded and congratulated the two. Just add the guarantee and buffet, then it will look like there is a wedding.

Inevitably, Rara also gave her smile and thanked him when one by one the team representatives gave gifts like the deal that had been made before. He opened his eyes to Leon. For some reason, even though Leon's lips seemed to smile, but his eyes could not lie. Rara felt a sadness in those eyes.

Wh why?
