Chapter 134 – Join
During class, Edward looked very unfocused. He was very nervous when he heard what happened this morning when many other students praised Anne's beauty. Hearing this, Edward's chest almost exploded. He was eager to approach one by one the young men who were talking about Anne and gave them lessons. But because this was an important subject that he couldn't leave, he finally tried to be patient to wait for recess to arrive. Isabel also looked very dispirited this time. Even though she was not majoring in music, but because today there was the same course as her major, she finally joined the same class as Edward.
"Okay, today my class is finished, do all the assignments that I gave and remember that you all have to submit it tomorrow morning at eight o'clock. One minute late and you will be considered not to have submit the assignment, and don't be surprised if you get a D," said Mrs. Martha quietly when she finished her class. .
"Yes, Ma'a,, we understand," said all the fashion design class in unison.
"Good, then see you tomorrow morning." Mrs. Martha answered briefly what her students said while reminding them about the deadline for submitting assignments.
After saying that, Mrs. Martha then walked slowly leaving Anne's classroom to the lecturer's room. Shortly after, when Mrs. Martha was really far from the classroom, all the students in the room immediately sighed, including Linda, who was sitting next to Anne. She even held her chest because her heart felt very fast when the killer lecturer spoke for two hours.
"Anne…"
"Hmm."
"Pinch me, I feel like I'm dreaming this, Anne," Linda asked softly.
Anne immediately carried out the instructions given by Linda. Without hesitation, she pinched Linda's arm. Linda immediately screamed loudly when Anne pinched her.
"Anne, it hurts!!!" Linda protested in irritation.
"Why? Didn't you ask for it yourself? So it's not my fault," said Anne softly without guilt.
"It's not your fault, you pinched me very hard, Anne. Just watch out if it leaves a mark," Linda grumbled fiercely as she felt her pinched arm.
"Stop acting, Linda, you're being exaggerated and so unnatural," said Anne briefly as she drank the milk she bought earlier in the cafeteria, after giving one box to Linda.
"Who's acting, you annoying bitch> Oh yes, the order for the bride and groom, have you …"
"Done. This morning I was driven by Paul to the venue," said Anne quietly, cutting off Linda's words.
Linda nodded her head slowly at Anne's words. She then enjoyed the milk given by Anne earlier. Not long after, Professor Gilbert entered. Anne and Linda immediately put their milk boxes into their bags.
"Collect all the assignments that I gave you yesterday," said Professor Gilbert quietly as soon as he stood in front of the class.
"Yes, Professor," said all the students.
Shortly thereafter, Vince, the class president, began to collect the assignments for the other students. He walked over to each other's desks one by one to collect everyone's assignments.
"Thanks, Vince," said Anne quietly.
"You're welcome, Anne," Vince said briefly with a smile when he received Anne's paper. Anne was the only student who thanked him and this made him happy.
Linda, who was busy opening her laptop, didn't realize that Vince was in front of her. Anne was nervous when she saw Linda made Vince wait. Without speaking, Anne then picked up the laptop that was being held by Linda and reached for Linda's paper which was under the laptop.
"Linda."
"Well, this is mine, Vince," said Linda quickly as she handed her paper to Vince, who was still standing in front of her.
"Linda …"
"Yes, Anne, I've given my assignment to Vince. What else?" Linda asked, confused when she saw that Anne still looked angry at her.
Seeing Linda not understanding her gesture made Anne sigh.
"Thank you and sorry for making you wait a long time, Vince," said Anne quietly, staring at Vince regretfully.
"N-no, Anne, it's okay. I'll go to another desk, okay?" Vince stuttered.
"Ok," said Anne curtly.
As soon as Vince left, Anne again pinched Linda's arm anxiously.
"It hurts Anne," Linda fiercely in pain.
"Get use to say 'sorry', 'thank you', and 'please', Linda. When someone helps you, you say thank you, when you accidentally make people uncomfortable, you say sorry and when asking for help, you say please. With those three words you will make people respect you, Linda," said Anne coldly with a rising tone, staring at Linda without blinking.
Linda, who did not understand the direction of Anne's words, could only be silent for a few moments. But soon she finally realized what had made Anne angry with her.
"Sorry, Anne, I was opening my laptop and didn't notice Vince's arrival," said Linda quickly trying to come up with an excuse.
"Don't make it a habit, Linda. You certainly don't want to be ignored like Vince earlier?" asked Anne curtly.
Linda just laughed silently while scratching her head that didn't itch when she realized her mistake. Meanwhile, Anne seemed to be shaking her head slowly seeing Linda's behavior. After Vince finished submitting their assignments, Professor Gilbert started giving his lessons. All the students immediately focused on the professor, including Anne and Linda, who had made up after a small fight.
"So here is the thing. As you already know, this campus has collaborated with the production company Ganke Inc. Therefore, the campus assigns a task to fashion design students to make the best designs for the clothes of the animated film players that will be produced by the big company this year," Professor Gilbert said quietly.
"What do you mean, Professor?" asked a student sitting in the front seat curiously.
"Yes, sir, what does that mean? We don't understand," added another student.
"That's right, Professor, please give a complete explanation. Don't be so vague," said another, joining in the conversation.
"Okay, calm down, don't talk anymore. I'll explain in more details, so listen carefully," said Professor Gilbert again, raising his hands in the air.
The quiet atmosphere of the class suddenly turned chaotic after Professor Gilbert finished his explanation of the collaboration between the campus and the Ganke inc production company. They looked very enthusiastic when they heard the benefits they would get when they succeeded in providing their best work for the animation company.
Anne was the only student who didn't even seem interested. Even though the benefits obtained when successfully signing a contract with the company were very large and profitable.
"Anne, why are you silent? Don't you want to sign up?" Linda asked softly.
"I-I don't …"
Thump!
Suddenly the look on Anne's face changed instantly when she remembered Jack's words last night, "If you want to make them crush slowly, make them injure each other without having to get your hands dirty, Anne."
Linda, who did not understand the change in Anne's expression, immediately waved her hand repeatedly in front of Anne's face.
"Anne, what's wrong with you? Why are you suddenly quiet and smiling horribly like that?" Linda asked in surprise.
"I changed my mind, Linda, I'll signed up. I have to be able to sign a contract with Master Leonard Ganke," said Anne softly with a meaningful smile on her lips.
