Because it was uncomfortable to be watched like that, Anne then took Linda out of the classroom to the cafeteria quickly. Without wearing a hat, Anne's hair was clearly visible and made everyone look at her.

"Anne, my hand hurts." Linda whimpered in pain as Anne kept pulling her hand all the way to the cafeteria.

​​

"Don't be so loud and keep your mouth shut," said Anne curtly without looking back.

Hearing Anne's words forced Linda to close her mouth tightly. Edward, who was busy in his class, didn't pay attention to Anne who had just passed his classroom. Anne's new hair really made some people didn't recognize her.

Arriving at the cafeteria, Anne immediately ordered two large hot dogs and two colas for herself and Linda who was now sitting on the chair staring at Anne without blinking. Linda didn't understand how Anne could actually look more adorable with such short hair.

"Let's eat in the garden," said Anne quietly to Linda with the food she ordered.

"Why the garden?" asked Linda confused.

"Since you're noisy here, so it's better to talk in the garden," answered Anne quickly.

"Okay then, let's eat at ..."

"Bring my bag, Linda, my hands are full," said Anne curtly to cut off Linda's words.

Linda chuckled as she realized her mistake. She then grabbed Anne's bag and carried it on her back and followed Anne into the garden. While walking to the park, several students looked at Anne from head to toe with a surprised expression at first and thought that Anne was a new student. But when they realized that the girl they were seeing was Anne, they were shocked beyond measure. There was even a student who stood still and stared at Anne without blinking when he realized that the figure he was currently seen was the girl with long hair who was currently being talked about by the seniors for her friendliness and kindness. He actually stood still in the middle of the hall, making the other students annoyed as their path to the cafeteria became a little blocked and caused a commotion in the place, until finally Edward and his men came to intervene.

"If you want to fight, it's better to do it in the field, not in front of the cafeteria like this. What you are doing is disturbing all of us who want to eat. Don't you understand that a starving person will become very violent?" Edward scolded in a high pitched voice at the crowd of students.

"Sorry, Edward, that's not what we meant, Edward."

"Yes, Edward, forgive us."

"Sorry, Edward."

"Don't make any noise. You better get out of the way. My boss wants to eat in the cafeteria, you guys just got in the way!!" One of Edward's subordinates scolded, interrupting the words of the students who had just been interrupted by Edward.

Hearing the words of Edward's right hand, the students who had previously quarreled closed their mouths and lowered their heads. One by one, they left the canteen area. Those who intended to eat in the cafeteria also canceled their intention because they did not want to find trouble with Edward.

"It's good that you guys go, you pests," said Edward's right-hand man, Ramsey, who was famous for being cruel, in annoyance. Ramsey was actually Edward's senior. However, because he had just entered, after taking almost a semester off from college after having an accident after a wild race, he finally became Edward's subordinate.

"Never mind, don't be angry, let's eat. I'm starved," Edward replied slowly with a smile.

"I'm still curious, what actually made them gather in front of the cafeteria like that. They just ruined my mood," said Ramsey, slowly following Edward into the cafeteria.

"It's not important, just leave them alone." Edward quickly answered Ramsey's words.

Hearing Edward's words, Ramsey finally closed his mouth. Not long after that, he stood behind Edward to order his food. Isabel, who had seen the commotion, seemed to smile. Suddenly she thought of a brilliant idea to take advantage of the power of Edward and his men. Without queuing first, Isabel finally stood right behind Ramsey, she used her beauty to seduce Ramsey, who was known as a playboy. Knowing that Isabel was behind him, Ramsay finally relented and allowed Isabel to take the food first right behind Edward. The other students who were queuing behind Edward's men looked annoyed when they saw Isabel Gini was in the number two queue even though she was previously in the last row.

Gabriella, who was queuing in the back row, was also annoyed with Isabel, but she refrained from following what Isabel was doing. She still thought about Anne, who had changed her appearance.

"How does she actually look prettier with that short hair?" Gabriella spoke subconsciously, what Anne had done this morning really made her nervous.

Tap!

Tap!

"Ella, come on. Look at the back, there are already long queues," whispered one of Gabriella's girls quietly after patting Gabriella's shoulder.

"Oh yeah sorry, I didn't mean to," Gabriella stuttered.

Gabriella's three subordinates were surprised to hear the word sorry from Gabriella, because so far Gabriella had never said sorry at all. Still in shock, Gabriella's three subordinates followed behind Gabriella, who had almost arrived at the table where they took their food.

Without Gabriela realizing that Anne had really made herself feel uncomfortable, the slightest change in Anne's appearance had made her feel threatened. And she didn't realize at all that Anne was actually far more popular than she was now. Meanwhile, Isabel, who had taken her food, was seen eating with Edward and his men. She left her best friend who was still in line.

Meanwhile, in the garden, Linda looked very surprised when she heard the reason why Anne had cut her hair so short now. She really couldn't accept everything well. Even though it was not her hair that was cut, but Anne's, for some reason she really didn't like her new appearance like that. According to her, the short haircut was not suitable for Anne, who was soft and quiet, because with that short hair, Anne looked more mature.

"It's not too short, Linda, look, it's still above my shoulder not as short as you imagine. My hair can still be tied, you don't have to worry," said Anne repeatedly while holding her hair that was cut in a bob style.

"I don't know, Anne, I just feel you look more beautiful with your long hair. You look more adorable and cute with long hair, Anne," answered Linda honestly.

"Linda, you're normal right? You're not a fellow man are you? Why are you like this to me?" asked Anne, pretending to panic.

"Of course I'm normal, Anne, otherwise how could Paul and I have come..."

Thump!

Linda immediately covered her mouth when she almost confessed to Anne for what she did with Paul last night.

"So my guess is right, apparently you and Paul have a relationship, right?" asked Anne again, quickly responding to Linda's words.

Linda's face immediately turned red. She reflexively touched her neck which still had the kiss mark that Paul made last night at his apartment. Seeing Linda's movement made Anne instinctively try to see Linda's covered neck, but because Linda tried her best to hide the traces of her last night's activities with Paul, Anne finally couldn't see it. She could only laugh and tease Linda with a big laugh, Anne was glad that Linda had a good relationship with Paul.

"Don't tease me anymore, now tell me what's the reason you changed your appearance like this?" Linda asked curtly as she pushed Anne away from her.

"I want to be the new Anne, the strong Anne, the not whiny Anne, the unvengeful Anne, the energetic Anne. I hope that by cutting my hair this short all the misfortunes that have followed me can go away, Linda. I want to live happily without being burdened by anything," answered Anne slowly with a sweet smile that spread on her face so that her dimples were clearly visible.
