I'll Teach You, Marianne.

Knock!

Knock!

Knock!

"Anne, open the door, Anne ... Anne, woke up!."

"This girl really sleeps like a sleeping beauty. So difficult to wake! Anne, open the door!" 

Knock!

Knock

Linda, who just got back, had been standing for a long time in front of her bedroom door and hadn't managed to wake Anne, who was still sleeping. She had also called Anne's cell phone many times but she didn't pick them up. That was why she was starting to get a little worried at this point. 

"Anne! Are you alright in there?" Linda shouted back very loudly at the door, so that some of Linda's other classmates began to arrive one by one in front of Anne and Linda's room.

"What's wrong, Linda? Is Anne in there?"

"She couldn't have been a victim of that criminal, could he?"

Linda, who was panicking because Anne had not opened the bedroom door, immediately turned to one of her classmates with an angry look. "Don't talk nonsense! Anne can't be a victim of that criminal. She must be fine by now, she must be sleeping inside. You know she's not feeling well."

"Tsk tsk tsk tsk... not only in London, even in Luxembourg, your friend is always a bother, Belinda." Gabriella, who had just finished checking her room, immediately joined in the conversation.

"Watch your words, Ella, Anne is sick. Besides, as her roommate, I don't mind at all, so you better shut up and don't say anything. Every word that comes out of your mouth is not good at all," said Linda in annoyance to refute Gabriella's words. 

Gabriella stuck her tongue out when she heard Linda's rebuke. She finally stepped away from the front of Anne and Linda's room to join in checking the room of one of her gang members. A few moments ago, they were all surprised by the arrival of the police who were at the hotel. The policemen also explained that they had just arrested a criminal who specialized in tourist robbery. The criminal would disguise himself as a tourist and mingle in the hotel where the guests were staying, then robbed the real tourist's room. That was why at this time all the UAL students were panicking, because from the CCTV monitoring the dreadlocked man was seen pacing back and forth in the hallway area of ​​their rooms. Therefore, they all checked the rooms one by one, including Linda, who had not managed to wake Anne. The reason was that the police who came earlier explained that this criminal did not hesitate to injure his victim, even though it was a woman. 

After seeing Gabriella leave, Linda then intended to wake Anne back but this time she prepared with a stronger fist to make a louder sound. However, when she touched the door, suddenly she heard the sound of the lock opening from the inside. Linda canceled her intention to knock on the door again. 

"Anne!!!!" Linda screamed loudly when she saw Anne standing in front of her wrapped in a thick blanket. Anne's forehead was now glued with a fever-reducing compress usually used by little kids. 

"Linda, cough...let me go. I can't breathe," said Anne quietly with a hoarse voice accompanied by a cough.

Hearing Anne's voice made Linda immediately let go of her hug. She then gripped Anne's shoulders tightly. 

"Are you sick, Anne?" Linda asked seriously.

"Yes, my head hurts so bad, my body is cold too. That's why I'm sleeping, Linda, what's all this? Why are you all gathered in front of our room? Did something happen?" asked Anne back with a nasally voice because her nose was blocked. She stared at some of her classmates who were standing behind Linda. 

Linda took a deep breath upon hearing Anne's words. She then moved her hand to Anne's forehead and smiled wryly when she realized Anne's body was still hot. Knowing that Anne was sick, Linda then asked her classmates to leave their room immediately because Anne needed rest. Linda carefully covered Anne's body with the blanket on her bed when they returned to the room.

"You haven't answered my question, Linda," said Anne quietly, covering her mouth as she was about to cough.

"What question?" Linda asked confused.

"Earlier, why were our friends standing in front of our room? And I ask for this explanation, why do you call me so many times like this?" answered Anne quickly while showing her cell phone which was showing about 30 missed calls from Linda. 

"No need to talk about it. The important thing is that you rest, Anne. I'll check something in a moment," said Linda quickly, trying to divert the conversation. 

Anne tilted her head at Linda's words. She felt even more certain that something big had happened. Especially now that Linda was seen tidying her things in the closet. For almost five minutes, there was no conversation between Anne and Linda. Anne was still staring at Linda without blinking on her bed while lying down, while Linda was still busy tidying her things or rather she looked like she was looking for something in her closet.

"Actually what are you doing, Linda? I've seen you looking for something. What are you looking for? If you tell me, maybe I can help you," asked Anne curiously. She couldn't hide her curiosity anymore. 

Linda, who believed that nothing was missing, then turned to Anne with a face full of sweat because she had worked so hard unpacking some of the clothes in the closet and tidied them up again.

"What happened?" asked Anne again. 

"But you promise after I tell you everything, you won't be surprised or scared," Linda answered quickly.

"Yes, I promise." Anne immediately answered Linda's words quickly while raising her palms up as a symbol of having made a promise. 

Linda took a deep breath and then told Anne what really happened, starting from when they first met the police in front of the hotel until finally the policemen told what really happened, including what they saw in the CCTV footage. How it was obvious that the man with dreadlocks hair seemed to be reading the situation in the hotel, including when the man followed Anne from the restaurant area until Anne got into the elevator. 

"That's why we were all asked to check our respective rooms. See if anything is missing or not, because if something is missing, the police will help find it," said Linda at length.

"There is a criminal who was observing the hotel situation? Then you have been rummaging through your closet, why, Linda? Is there something missing?" asked Anne confused.

Linda, who couldn't hide her feelings, immediately hugged Anne tightly. Not long after that, she heard the sound of Linda's crying while hugging her. "I-I was afraid that you're hurt, Anne, I've been trying not to cry since. But I can't hold myself back anymore, I'm afraid you'll fall victim to that pervert."

Hearing Linda mentioned about the perverted man, Anne immediately pushed Linda's body to let go of her embrace. "What do you mean? Who are you calling a pervert, Linda?"

"That man, the bad guy who was after us. Just when I was about to take the elevator, suddenly a policewoman came up to me and asked if I was the occupant of this room or not, and when I said that I was one of the occupants of this room, she told me that the bad man had already prepared aphrodisiac in his pocket to carry out his action. At first, I didn't believe it but when I saw the CCTV footage which showed that the criminal started following you from the restaurant and repeatedly pushed the door of this room, I was scared and worried, Anne, I'm afraid you've become a victim of that villain boo hoo…"

Linda's cries got louder when she was really afraid that something bad would happen to Anne. That was why she was so happy that now Anne was okay. Meanwhile, Anne was trying to remember what happened at the restaurant a few hours ago. Indeed, when she was at the restaurant, she noticed that there was a man who was also enjoying a cup of coffee, but she did not have the slightest suspicion, because she thought the man was one of the hotel guests. That was why Anne was quite shocked at the moment and felt grateful that the criminal had been caught.
