In a hurry Anna ran to open the door of her house.
" You're so slow "grunts Max with annoyance. Anna could hardly believe what was in front of her. Roberta, Max and two women he didn't know were standing behind the door.
" Max? Roberta's? "
" Hey Anna, I'm a handsome fairy lord who will help you tonight. Everyone, preparing in your respective places "without heeding Anna's astonishment, Max gives command to his "armies. Roberta immediately rushed to Joanna's room. While two women who turned out to be makeup artists immediately dress Anna. Although Max? He sat like a boss watching his men work closely
" Max, I can't go, what about Joanna? " anna protest
" Traberta will look after it for you "
" What if Jason finds out? "
" Your beloved husband is dating another woman. Besides, would he care about you ? "
" But I'm ashamed of Max, what if the people at school recognized me ? "
" Do you think you're a famous actress? "
" Maxxx... "
" Sorry to say, but you're a housewife who is not recognized by your own husband. But before that, you're Marrie-Anne Rose, a student with dreams. And I think one of your dreams is to be able to dance with your adored man at school"
" Sok knows. You don't even know who my man is "
" Why do I know that? I just want to see you happy. Besides, I wouldn't be surprised if it turned out, that guy was me "
" huh? You ? "
" Sure. Max Wilson, handsome, rich, doesn't that drive girls crazy? "
" You're overconfident" Anna said with a smile.
" **** !!. I forgot one thing "Max said all of a sudden.
" What? "
" You're a mother, not a girl" she said with a laugh.
" Maxx.. " Anna pretended to sulk..The two men laughed.
******
" Maxx ? " ask Anna at Max who sees her without blinking. Anna looks so pretty in a blue party dress. Her hair was styled upwards, making her look graceful.
" Well, you look beautiful, Anna "praise Max. That praise of course made Anna blush in embarrassment.
" Well, now, just put on this "Max held out a paper mask on Anna.
" Mask? "
Max put the mask on Anna's face.
" With this mask, no one will recognize you at the party. And you can dance with your handsome prince without interruption "
" How can I recognize him if we both wear masks? "
" He will find you "
*****
" Not to be afraid, Anna. They won't recognize you "
Anna raised her face. It seems like what Max said has a point as well. Everyone in this hall wore a paper mask to cover his face. It is less likely that they will recognize him.
" I think I should say hello to the girls" Max said as he removed Anna's hand from hers.
" Max, don't go, please "
" Like you, I can't miss this opportunity either, Anna. I'll be there to say hello to them. Mingle with others or just stay there if you want to miss this opportunity "challenge Max while stepping away from Anna.
" But, Max.. "
" Don't be afraid, I'll watch over you from there "
*****
" Huh, it's so hot" said a girl in a purple dress to Anna who was standing alone. Anna recognized the voice. Drew's? Hey Drew, it's me, Anna!!. Anna almost said that. But he remembered that he did not want to be recognized.
" This dress is too tight. I can barely breathe because of it. But how else, I have to give the best performance for Justin to choose me. But, where is he now? Hufth. This mask makes it hard for me to find him. I think he's having trouble recognizing me too "Drew keeps babbling. Anna remained silent. It's not new for him to know that almost all the girls in this school like Justin.
" Do you recognize him? Justin I mean "
Anna shook her head.
" Even the most popular men in this school are not recognized because of the sia***n mask. I don't know what was on the committee's mind as they planned this. Just trouble. But I think that sooner or later Justin will recognize me, because we're so close. Know it? Justin even asked me to be his group's task partner. And many other things he asked me to do with him. Only with me! " displayed. Anna almost giggled at hearing that. Drew still likes Justin.
" By the way, what class are you in? I don't think I've seen you before ? " ask Drew. Anna almost opened her mouth to confess to Drew when suddenly a blue shirt approached her.
" Can I dance with you, Miss? " he asked as he extended his right hand to Anna. Anna looked confused. He did not know whether he should accept the man's request or not. Anna turned to look at Max who was busy with the girls. Anna seemed to think for a moment. The man still extended his right hand. Suddenly a crowd passed by and accidentally bumped into Anna so Anna was pushed forward, towards the man.
" Thank you "he said, thinking Anna agreed. He then took Anna's hand to the dance floor accompanied by an annoyed look from Drew.
*****
" You look so pretty. What's your name ? " ask the man. Anna's heart was beating fast. That sound. It was like Justin's voice. Anna then observes the costume she is wearing.
This shirt, it's like Justin's. The sound is similar too. Gosh darn. Am I dancing with Justin? Then, what if he recognizes me? What will he think about later? Would I look like a mother who would leave her child to party? Will he think badly of me later? Relax, Anna, relax, don't you want this too? Dancing with Justin is also one of the reasons you came to this party right?? But am I the only one who wants this? And what about Justin? What if he only thinks of you as a sister-in-law?
" It turns out you're so quiet, aren't you? You didn't even heed what I said just now "
Ana was still silent. He was afraid that if he opened his mouth, Justin or anyone else dancing with him right now would know his identity.
" Okay, no big deal, I'm happy enough that you're dancing with me. Oya, can I tell you one thing? My name ..... "
" I'm sorry, buddy, but I think the princess should leave this place soon "
A hand pulled Anna and took her away from Justin in a hurry.
Justin looked upset.
" Max? what was? " ask Anna so recognizing the man who pulled her away.
" The change of recana, Anna. Your husband's coming home "
" A-Appa??? "
