I'll Teach You, Marianne.

Anne, who came home last night because she had to interview the courier candidate she needed this morning, woke up later than usual because she was exhausted. Even the sound of the alarm that had been previously set didn't wake her up. She finally woke up when she wanted to pee and realized that she had woken up late.

"Oh my God Anne, what's wrong with you. Today you have a class." 

Anne cursed herself as she dressed after she took a quick shower. As it was getting late and she didn't want to be late to campus, Anne finally chose a knee-length denim mini dress. With her favorite flat shoes with a cat picture, Anne went to campus by running towards the elevator. Because it was noon, no one was in the elevator. 

"Morning, Miss," said a security guard to Anne politely.

"It's noon sir," said Anne softly, smiling broadly so that her rows of white teeth could be seen.

"Why, it's still nine o'clock in the morning," said the security guard, confused.

"Yes, it's already noon, Sir, hehehe, okay, I'm leaving, bye bye," Anne waved her hand at the security guard who greeted her in front of the elevator earlier. 

The security guard just smiled looking at Anne who was currently in her car. His consciousness returned when one of his colleagues tapped him on the shoulder. They returned to continue their work, meanwhile Anne had gone with her favorite car. Anne, who usually never drove at the speed above 80 km / hour, this time sped at almost 100 km / hour. She was really panicked that she didn't realize that she had passed the normal speed limit. 

"Geez, Anne ... how can you wake up late?" Anne still blamed herself when driving her car to campus amidst traffic jams. Currently, there were many vehicles passed by as it was already noon and many workers were already active. 

After driving for almost forty-five minutes, Anne finally arrived at her campus, but because it was almost ten o'clock and the first course had started, Anne finally decided not to join the class which was almost over. After parking her car, Anne walked unsteadily towards the classroom through the path that was beside the field. The wind was quite strong making her loose hair even more disheveled. 

Arriving in class, Anne chose to sit on the bench outside of the classroom. Mrs. Martha's loud voice could be heard by Anne from outside and it made her a little scared. Shortly afterwards, the bell rang, Mrs. Martha quickly walked out of the classroom and did not notice Anne's presence outside of the classroom. 

"Anne!!! Where have you been?" Linda shrieked loudly when she saw Anne was standing at the door. 

Hearing Linda's scream made the whole class turn to Anne, who was now walking towards her chair next to Linda's, Anne's appearance that was different from usual made them all speechless. Anne looked different wearing a denim dress that had a side parting and hair that had been tied up carelessly.

"Where are you from?" Linda asked quietly.

"From the apartment, I was late, Linda," said Anne quietly as she reached for Linda's water bottle that was on the table.

"Really? How come? Don't you always wake up early, what time did you sleep last night?" Linda asked back. 

"I don't know either. I usually wake up when the alarm goes off. But this morning I didn't hear anything, Linda ... I'm pissed off!!" Anne screamed in annoyance as she covered her face with both hands.

Linda just chuckled when she saw Anne in such a mess. She knew that Anne was a perfectionist, so that's why she understood that Anne was this messy because she woke up late. Patting Anne on the back, Linda tried to calm her friend down so that she wouldn't be sad for too long. After five minutes of looking down on the table, Anne finally regained control of herself, and soon another lecturer came in the classroom to give another course. Because since the morning her mood had been broken, Anne was not as enthusiastic as usual when she received lessons and Linda, who knew Anne very well, was aware of this. 

"Let's go to the cafeteria, I'm hungry," Linda whispered softly to Anne.

"Me too, but I'm not interested to go to the cafeteria," said Anne quietly as she closed her laptop carefully.

"Come on, Anne, let's go quickly. Anyone can wake up late, Anne, it's not an embarrassing thing that you have to be this sad. Get up quickly or I'll be very angry with you," said Linda curtly as she folded her arms across her chest.

Seeing Linda angry made Anne smiled. She slowly put her book and laptop into her bag then got up from her chair and immediately hugged Linda.

"Don't be angry, you're ugly when you're angry. Come on, let's go to the cafeteria, I'm so hungry," Anne whispered softly to Linda who she was embracing.

"Yes, that's why we ate, my stomach grumbles," said Linda again.

Anne finally smiled again when Linda complained of hunger, the two of them walked towards the cafeteria still embracing. Because Anne was so much taller than Linda, it seemed like she was embracing her little sister while walking. Gabriella, who had heard and seen Linda and Anne's little argument, only sneered. 

"Just leave those two guys, Ella, don't mind them," said one of Gabriella's followers quietly.

"I don't care about them. Let's go to the cafeteria. The people there need to know who the real star is," Gabriella said proudly.

"Of course, they must know who the real star on this campus is," added Gabriella's other follower, praising Gabriella.

Hearing the words of her members made Gabriella, who initially felt annoyed with Anne, now felt confident again. She quickly walked to the cafeteria with four of her friends who always followed behind her so that Gabriella considered them as subordinates. 

When Gabriella arrived at the cafeteria, the male students immediately rushed to her. As one of the most beautiful girls in UAL, her popularity was undoubted. So it was no wonder that many female students always tried to get close to Gabriella. While other girls might be happy to get a lot of fans and attention like that, it was different with Anne who felt uncomfortable with such popularity. She didn't even respond to any teasing from her friends, like what happened earlier when she came to the cafeteria. There were several people who tried to approach her but Anne politely refused their offer, so that Linda finally had to intervene.

"Ella is not very beautiful, Anne, why do so many students approach her?" Linda said softly with a mouth full of food.

"Don't talk about people, Linda, just eat your food. After that let's leave this place quickly," said Anne curtly.

"Yes ma'am, I will do ..."

"Hey, may I join you?" Edward suddenly appeared with his food tray and joined Anne and Linda. Linda, who couldn't finish her words, almost coughed if she didn't immediately shut her mouth, when she saw Edward suddenly sat down beside her. 

"Go ahead, this is the cafeteria," said Anne kindly.

"Thank you. Oh yes, Linda, can you move a little that way? I'm uncomfortable sitting on the side like this," said Edward without guilt, asking Linda to shift so he could sit opposite Anne.

Without speaking, Linda shifted her seat according to Edward's request. After Linda shifted, Edward then sat comfortably right in front of Anne who was still eating her food calmly. Even though other girls probably would not be able to eat comfortably like that when Edward was there, but that didn't apply to Anne. She still enjoyed her burger calmly and without shame. Seeing Anne's calmness made Edward smile. This was the first time he saw a girl who was not captivated by his charm even though he was this close. 

Gabriella, who was still waiting for her meal to come, narrowed her eyes when she saw Edward sitting with Anne, because all this time, if she was in the cafeteria, Edward would disturb her, but this time Edward was with Anne and this made her uncomfortable.

"Where do you two work? Why didn't you go on the vacation yesterday?" Edward asked softly, breaking the silence. 

"I work at the flower shop that she ... ouch Anne!!!" Linda, whose leg was kicked by Anne under the table, screamed in pain and couldn't finish her words.

"What's wrong with you, Linda?" asked Edward, confused.

"It's okay, Linda is like that like, making a scene. Well then you go on, Edward, see you tomorrow," said Anne quickly as she got up from her chair and glared at Linda. 

"But you haven't finished eating, Anne," said Edward quickly, staring at the french fries on Anne's tray.

"I'm full, Edward, aren't we, Linda," said Anne back, grabbing the fries and she gave them to Linda.

"Y-yes, we're full," said Linda stuttered.

"Well then you can go," said Edward softly.

"Ok, bye Edward," said Anne quietly. After saying that, Anne took her tray to the sink with Linda. Then, without looking back, Anne walked away leaving the cafeteria with Linda who was trailing behind.

"Anne, wait, what's wrong with you? I haven't finished eating," Linda protested irritably.

Anne, who had walked quite far from the cafeteria, immediately turned around and covered Linda's mouth with her hand at once.

"Turn your voice down, Linda, people will hear you," said Anne quietly, glaring at Linda.

"It's your fault, you told me to leave the cafeteria while I'm still hungry," Linda fiercely said.

"There's Edward there and you almost spilled my secret. I told you before not to tell people that I have a flower shop, Linda," said Anne coldly.

"Oops yes, sorry, I forgot, Anne," said Linda pitifully.

"Never mind. Then let's go to…"

Thump!

Anne couldn't finish her words as she looked back and saw the figure of the man who had injured her standing in front of her.

"Hi Anne," the man said politely.

"Leon." Anne muttered softly when she saw the figure of her ex-husband appeared before her again.

To be continued.
