In her room, Anna was sitting on the bed staring at the phone in front of her. For more than 30 minutes he was silent like that. He wanted to call Grace, but hesitated to make her think for a long time.
Grace is not the typical person who thinks of lessons. If he's moody then the problem is on the date he did with Kevin. But what's the problem?
"Are you going to keep it that way?" suddenly Edgar. He was uncomfortable seeing his wife who was silent like a statue for minutes.
"Do you think I should call him?"
How complicated a woman is. The men never think about other people's problems, so Edgar is confused about what to answer.
"Do as you wish to do. But I think it's better if you leave Grace alone. After all, he'll definitely call you if he wants to tell you a story."
"You're right. I'd better not call him" said Anna. However, it seemed that his mind changed in an instant. "But I have to call him!"
Anna grabs her phone and calls Grace's number. His heart is not calm if he has not heard the problems of his friend.
"What's? Why not answer?" anna was confused. He then dialed Grace's number once again, but the results remained the same.
"Let her alone, Anna. Maybe he didn't want to be disturbed" Edgar said.
"Professor Kevin!" shouted Anna. If she can't reach Grace then she'll call Kevin and ask what happened to them until Grace looks sad. "Ed, give me your phone!"
"No! Stop meddling in other people's business, Anna. Now you need to rest, it's night."
"Curtain!" Anna squinted her eyes at Edgar. Her husband was hard to work with.
Seeing that, Edgar then let out a long sigh. It seemed Anna was sulking and Edgar had to budge. Don't let Anna get angry and run away like that.
"This, not too long," said Edgar resigned while thrusting his phone to Anna.
"Thank you!"
The next minute, Anna dialed Kevin's number using Edgar's phone and turned on the loudspeaker. After all, he was reluctant to keep the man's number on his phone. It doesn't matter!
"Hn, what's wrong?"
Anna was stunned, Kevin instantly answered her call within a few seconds.
Does Dominic's descendant always speak to the point? think Anna.
"It's Anna. Sorry for calling you, Professor."
"Ah, so. Is there anything important you want to ask?"
Can this guy read minds? think Anna again.
"Yes, this is very important" Anna replied. 'Forku!' he continued in his heart.
"What do you want to ask?" ask Kevin then.
Anna fell silent and looked at Edgar. She was excited to ask about Kevin and Grace's date. Whether there is a problem or not. Why is Anna hesitating now?
"That ... are you okay?" anna said at the end.
Anna's words suddenly made Edgar raise his eyebrows upwards. Kevin's? Of course, he was confused by Anna's question. Is that what you call an important question?
In a split second, Edgar finally snatched his phone from Anna's hand and replaced Anna to ask.
"I heard you were on a date with Grace. How'd it go?" ask Edgar straight to the point.
"Why do you know about that?" Kevin asked back.
"It wasn't me, but Anna wanted to find out!" edgar's firm, straighten. How could he care about his cousin's romance? He doesn't care at all!
"I don't want to tell you."
"It's not me, it's Anna!"
"Whatever!"

The next day, Anna waits for Grace's arrival at the campus gate. It had been almost 15 minutes she had waited, yet Grace had not shown herself at all.
When Anna got tired of waiting and was about to leave, Grace suddenly got off her taxi with a lackluster face. Even so, Anna still greeted him cheerfully and hoped that his friend would get excited again.
"Grace!" call Anna while waving her hands high.
Grace sees Anna in a split second, but soon turns her face away.
Didn't he see me, did he? Maybe I should call him again! think Anna then.
"Grace! I'm right here!" call Anna again in a voice no less loud.
Niente. Grace did not answer Anna's call at all as usual.
As Grace walked past Anna, she suddenly paused for a moment and whispered, "Don't bother me. Let me be alone today."
After saying that, Grace continued her path without even turning to Anna. She did not go straight to class, but rather went into the toilet to fix her unfinished makeup.
In the toilet, she meets Wendy who is washing her hands in the sink. Wendy looked annoyed and several times cursed Anna with harsh words.
"Am I his assistant? It was as if he was telling me to take his place in class, whereas I was missing my own class!" yup, Wendy washes her hands. "If only he had not known my secret! Ughhhh!"
Grace was silent when she heard Wendy swearing. Occasionally he peeked at Wendy through the mirror in front of her.
Wendy, aware of Grace's gaze, turned to Grace and widened her eyes.
"You!" show Wendy. "Didn't you slap me that time?"
There was no response from Grace. He had no energy to fight with Wendy.
"Well, are you going to complain to your friend this time? Yes, I must have," Wendy said again.
"Are you talking about Anna?" This time Grace spoke. He was going to be quiet, but he couldn't.
"of course. Wh why? Just yell at him if I swear at him with harsh words!"
"Do you hate him?"
I don't know what Grace was thinking, but Wendy was confused by Grace who suddenly asked like that. Isn't it obvious that Wendy hates Anna? Should he answer for sure? Especially to the good friends of those he hates.
However, Wendy thought about answering Grace's question and looked at the next situation.
"Yes, I hate him. Hates him so much!" answer Wendy.
"Ah, so." Grace said that as it passed.
Her pupils dilated, Wendy was annoyed by Grace's brazen reply and left her just like that. Anna and her friends are shit! thought.

"Grace! Are you mad at me?" chirp Anna when she sees Grace coming out of the toilet.
Surprised, Grace almost had a heart attack when Anna yelled at her name when they were very close.
Grace smiled. "No. Do I look angry at you?"
How long after Grace spoke, Wendy then came out of the toilet and hit Grace's shoulder on purpose, then turned her face haughtily.
Grace almost cursed, but she held back and tried to stay calm.
Anna chuckles. "It looks like you've come back to the real you. And, please don't be so mad at Wendy. She was like that and was probably pissed at me."
"Yes, maybe he was also upset with me for slapping him that time." Grace held Anna's hand and looked at her. "Anna, I'm sorry," she said, then let go of Anna's hand.
