"Eng ..." Carolina, who is still half conscious, tries to reach her cell phone which she left on the floor last night. As someone who stay at a boarding house, she only had a mattress, so she was used to putting her things on the floor.
"What time is it now," she muttered when she reached for her cell phone and activated it to see what time it was.
"Uh, it's half past 12, no wonder my head is a little dizzy," she muttered. After three days yesterday she was busy taking care of the people who set her up, last night she decided to give herself a little "gift" by spending time looking for and watching anime that has never been watched. As a result, last night she ended up sleeping around 4 in the morning.
"Uh," Carolina suddenly noticed that her cellphone had multiple notifications. 5 messages from w******p and 1 message from discord.
Still in a lazy position to wake up, Carolina first checks who sent her the message. 2 messages from Andrew, 2 messages from Dion and 1 message from Chandra.
Andrew: p 7:01
Andrew: p 7:45
(*ping)
Carolina frowns, as usual Andrew always sends messages with p p, what's so hard to say directly the purpose of sending messages, it doesn't need to be on p p. Not feeling in the mood to reply to the p p, Carolina just read it without replying.
Dion: Morning 8.01
Dion: Wow, still checklist, still sleeping right? Do you have time today? 8:02
Carolina frowns once again, it's not as if Dion is sending her messages like that, usually Dion only sends messages to ask questions about assignments or materials that the man doesn't understand, of course Carolina always teaches him when she's not busy.
Reading the message from Dion made Carolina's mood a little better, at least Dion didn't send unclear p p messages like Andrew, she finally replied.
Carolina: Sorry, I just got hold of the cell phone. Yep, why? 11:40
Carolina of course deliberately replied by saying that she just got hold of the cell phone, her image that she has been building as a good girl would of course fall a little if she said she just woke up at this time!
Chandra: Hey, i called you but your phone is not active, are you still asleep? Big boss told me to ask you if this holiday will you come home or not?? 9:00
Seeing a message from Chandra who is her younger brother, makes Carolina smile a little. The type of message that is sent by her brother that Carolina likes, to the point without further ado.
Carolina: tell mom i can't, still busy 11:42
After replying to the message, she checked the messages in her group that had reached 30. She deliberately turned off the notification for the group her class because it doesn't feel that important, after all she joined because she wanted to show a sense of "togetherness" that was always upheld by her fellow classmates.
As expected, there was no important message in the group. Only a few of her friends talked about unimportant things.
Next she opened the discord application, to read the definite message of a friend she knew from an online game.
DarkMagician: Hey, you there? 5:15
DarkMagician: Don't forget to call me. Urgent! 5:15
Carolina frowned once again, it was about 2 weeks before DarkMagician called her. Carolina doesn't really like to share her identity in cyberspace, nor is she too curious about the identity or country where DarkMagician comes from, after all, that person is just a friend to play with and so far they have no problem communicating using English.
Even so, she was also a little curious about what that person would say. So she decided to reply.
FallenAngel: What's wrong? 11:44
Feeling hungry, Carolina decides to give her stomach a little treat by ordering food online, even though she has a few million usd in her hidden account, she doesn't want to live a splurge, well except for a brand new laptop that she recently bought.
Maybe she will upgrade herself when she finishes college and finally buy a house in an area far from her campus. It could be bad if suddenly a female student buys a house, she might be accused of doing a deal with the devil, or worse, accused of online prostitution and become sugar baby.
"Uhh .. the delivery cost is very expensive! 18 thousand! Usually it's only 15 thousand," Carolina muttered when she had chosen the food she wanted to eat.
After hesitating for a few seconds, he finally decided to order the food even though the delivery cost was 18 thousand. Today she wants to give herself a gift, so it is okay to spend more money, right?
After finishing talking to the driver who received her order, Carolina decided to take a shower as well as just wash her face, who knows if she finishes taking a shower, the food will arrive.

"Thank you for your hard work," said Ethan as he occasionally bowed to the director and the rest of the drama crew when filming for his part had finished and was currently taking a break.
"Thank you for your hard work," said Ethan when visiting First AD (Assistant Director).
"Thanks for the hard work, what's up Ethan?" asked the AD, as if knowing Ethan had a need with him.
"Well ... I want to ask about the next shooting schedule," said Ethan, a little hesitant to discuss it.
"I will tell your manager later, as usual," said the AD.
"Oh .. Okay," Ethan could only surrender. Even though he was only a supporting role, his role suddenly received a few parts since episode 6. Of course, these roles were no more than the main cast.
He had heard the news that the screenwriter came while they were shooting for episode 4 and saw his acting, then suddenly the script was changed and he got a bit of a part. Even though it was just a rumor, but Ethan was happy to hear it, at least someone acknowledged his acting skills!
But Ethan still feels anxious, he has just been contacted to visit his mother and asked to be an interim CEO of his family's company and currently he is still in the process of filming, even though they have 5 stock episodes that have not been aired, it still doesn't make Ethan calm.
"Why did you meet First AD? What is the problem?" Mi Sun asked worriedly, it was not usual for Ethan to meet First AD, especially since that person was the one who arranged their schedule.
"Noona ... let's just chat in the car," said Ethan before the two of them returned to the car.
Ethan then explained their current situation while they were in the car.
"What do you think, noona? Should I get permission from the company first? " Ethan asked for advice.
Mi Sun was silent for a moment before she continued, "We'd better check the flight schedule first, but do you have any money?" asked Mi Sun. As the manager who also manages Ethan's finances, she clearly knows the man's financial condition.
"The ticket money will be borne by the company there,"
"I forgot that my Ethan is a chaebol * child in Indonesia, should noona also come so you can treat me?" teased Mi Sun.
(* conglomerate)
"Noona! I'm there to work, you know! " said Ethan, a little embarrassed. His current finances and the finances of being one of NamTech's heirs are a far cry.
Suddenly, Ethan's cell phone rang. On the cell phone screen there is an incoming message from the Line application.
"Hello Mr. Ethan, I am Agung, the company secretary of NamTech. Are you still busy?" write the message in english.
"Nothing? What's up?" replied Ethan, who also used English. Shortly after Ethan sent the message, Agung immediately made an incoming call. Ethan, who was currently on his way home, didn't mind and immediately picked it up.
"Hello Mr. Ethan, once again I introduce myself, i'm Agung, the company secretary of NamTech, who will help you with your needs," said Agung, who still uses English.
"Hello, I'm Ethan," replied Ethan who also replied in English.
Ethan can actually speak Indonesian, but he is curious about the English communication skills of his family company secretary. As a company secretary, that person should be able to use English, right?
"I want to confirm your flight schedule,"
"Yes, is there a problem?" asked Ethan
"Mr. Baek Hyeon's secretary told me that you have to come to the company on Monday, and after checking the flight from Seoul to Jakarta, it's only available on Sundays at 15:20 and arrives in Jakarta at 20:20. But maybe Mr. Ethan will be tired because Mr. Ethan has to enter the office the next day, so I am looking for another alternative flight. "
"What is that?"
"On Saturday there is a flight scheduled to Indonesia but the goal is to Bali. The flight schedule is 11:25 am and arrives in Bali at 17:30. Then after that there will be a flight at 19:00 and arrive in Jakarta at 19:50. How about it?" asked Agung. Agung is actually the new secretary of the company, because the previous secretary had been Baek Hyeon's wife personal secretary.
Agung felt this was an opportunity for him to "move up the ranks" to become Ethan's personal secretary, so he had to make his future boss happy with the service he provided.
"You are right, then just booking a plane ticket to Bali is as well as booking a hotel, looking for flights to Jakarta just the next day. Oh yeah, you also came to Bali and brought company documents that I needed to study," said Ethan.
It's better for him to vacation in Bali as well, right? After all, he hasn't lived a "generous" life for a long time, what's wrong with "spoiling" himself? After all, there wouldn't be a problem, right?
If only Ethan had known that his decision to stay first in Bali would really change his life, maybe then, he would have rethought his decision...
