Talk

"Lena... wake up..." I shake her shoulder a little. "It's already 9 pm." She open her eyes a little. It was kind of cute.

I'm going back to my table as soon she sat up on her bed.

"What are you working at?" She ask with a sleepy voice.

"Just a little head-on before the lecture tomorrow" My hands are busy preparing the notes for tomorrow lessons. When I wanted to start writing, I realize that she's keep staring at me.

"Is there something you wanna say?... Lena... Hey!" I'm waving my hand in front of her.

"What? sorry... no, my mind just blank from... you know, sleep... I'm gonna go take a bath..." She stand up from her bed and go to the bathroom.

"Okay Aira... enough distraction... focus" I said to myself. Before I even grab my pen, my phone rang.

"Hey Sarah... What's up? miss me already?"

"Of course... haha... by the way, do you want me to pick you up tomorrow morning for class?

"Urmmm... Nevermind, I just go there by bus"

"You sure? you need to get up early to get in line"

"Yeah... i know... see you tomorrow Sarah."

"Okay... don't forget all the notes for tomorrow. Bye"

"Bye"

The call ended and I can focus myself again. After 20 minutes of reading and highlighting the important part, my eyes felt sleepy for some reason. Maybe I didn't get any sleep after I got here. Lena been in the bathroom for quiet sometime now. Guess I just need to take some rest.

The door open. "Hey, still studying?" Lena come in with a blue shirt.

"Yeah... feel kind of sleepy in the middle of it. Took you long enough in the shower."

"Just washing my cloth. It got some brown stain. Kind of hard to brush it off." She said while heading to the cabinet and grab a short pant to wear.

"I can help you wash it... I've been pretty good at it" I said offering myself.

"What do you mean by 'pretty good?" she ask while drying her hair out with a towel.

"I'm a chemistry student... I know the perfect method to help you."

"Right... how can I forgot about that... Nice."

"Come on... I show you" I stand up and headed to the bathroom followed by Lena.

After telling her the method of removing the stain, we have a little chat before going to bed.

"So Lena... I've been meaning to ask, where are the other two roommates?"

"Ohh, they usually coming home late from a holiday... they're living in the same hometown by the way... Opps! that's remind me, I forgot to add you on the group chat for this apartment." she grab her phone and add me to the group.

"So... do you have any boyfriend?" Lena ask me out of the blue.

"What? No. Actually, I never thought about it." It's true. I have no interest in dating anyone since highschool.

"Really?!" She seems shocked.

"Yeah... why? your face tells me you didn't believe me"

"I mean... you're beautiful, smart and whoever get you must be so lucky" She praised me a little bit to far I think. It made me blush.

"You don't have to compliment me that much..." I laugh a bit. "Enough about me, what about you?"

"Will you promise me not to freak out?" she ask.

"Okay... I promise." I grab a bottle of mineral water to drink.

"I'm a lesbian" I nearly choke my drink when I heard that. Damn... how should I respond to this.

"Okay... well... that's new..." What the hell am I saying.

"Haha... you kind of cute when you thinking a right word to say." Should I feel happy or embarrassed about this whole situation?

"Are we good?" she ask all of a sudden. "I mean, I don't want you to feel uncomfortable towards me."

"Yeah... we're good. I don't mind about it at all."

"Thanks... glad you can accept me as your roommate... urmm... Night."

"Goodnight Lena"
