I'll Teach You, Marianne.

Chapter 340 - Jack, Is That You?

Anne and Linda walked to enjoy the view of Luxembourg. Although they had not started their work yet, Anne had brought a DSLR camera which she hung around her neck.

"Chairs, let's sit there Anne!!" Linda shouted loudly, pointing to a chair not far from where they were walking now.

"Why should we sit? Our goal is to enjoy the city while walking, Linda, not sitting," answered Anne firmly to restrain Linda who wanted to run to a chair on the side of the road.

Linda turned to Anne with a pitiful face. "But I'm tired, Anne."

Anne immediately released her grip on Linda's arm and then folded her arms across her chest. "Well, you sit there alone. Enjoying the view of this city by sitting isn't a bad idea, but if later you are suddenly visited by some local people and you can't answer their words then don't blame me huh? You know it's dangerous to be in a foreign country whose language you can't understand at all."

Gulped! Linda immediately swallowed forcefully. Her face immediately paled at Anne's words. Without another word, Linda continued her steps back down the path she was walking with Anne. From behind, Anne smiled amusedly. She bit her lower lip so she wouldn't burst out laughing. Because Linda had walked further and further, Anne then quickened her footsteps, following her friend who looked annoyed.

Anne's invitation to keep going was right, because not far from where they stopped for the first time, there was a big road where lots of people pass by. At the red light intersection, there were a lot of working women with their activities, starting from walking by, crossing the street, taking the bus, or just standing at the bus stop. The scene in front of them right now really resembled a walking fashion show.

"Wow Anne...!"

"Yeah I know." Anne immediately cut off Linda's words as she began to aim the lens at the people in front of her.

While Linda was admiring the busy Luxembourg city women, Anne had gotten some good photos of the women who she thought had a good fashion style. Although not a photographer, the photos taken by Anne were never bad. All the photos she took were even perfect and really looked dynamic. That was why Linda always entrusted her to take photos, every time they did an assignment for Professor Gilbert.

"Anne, look! What's wrong with those people? Let's see," said Linda, suddenly startling Anne, who was still busy with her camera.

"Just leave them be, Linda, I still want to take photos of those women. The more references we have, the more chances we have to get a good result," answered Anne quickly without taking her eyes off her camera.

Linda took a deep breath when she heard Anne's words. She forgot that Anne was a very apathetic person for the past 2 years. However, because Linda was very curious about the crowd of people across the street, she then chose to approach the people herself without taking Anne. Lind ran through the zebra crossing with the locals who were also crossing the road, while Anne, who didn't realize Linda was gone, was still busy taking photos of the Luxembourg women, which had become rare because many of them had started to enter the nearby buildings which stood near that big road.

"Come on, Linda, let's find another place," said Anne quietly, looking at the camera to see the photos.

Anne, who looked satisfied with the photos she took, seemed a little annoyed that Linda ignored her. Without taking her eyes off the camera, Anne again called Linda's name. But again, she did not get an answer from Linda. With a little annoyance, Anne lifted her face and turned to look for Linda, but she did not find Linda. even when she turned around to look around the figure of Linda, her best friend, was nowhere to be seen.

"Linda….Linda…don't play games, Linda, come out quickly, don't hide. Let's go again." Anne started screaming loudly when she couldn't find Linda around her.

Because she didn't get an answer, Anne started to panic. She knew that Linda couldn't speak German and French, the two languages which were often used by people here to communicate. Anne then hastened her steps down the path to the back of where she was now. Anne continued to walk while calling Linda's name anxiously, but Linda never appeared, which made Anne even more anxious. When she was panicking, suddenly Anne looked across the street where there was a crowd, Anne immediately fell silent. She remembered what Linda had told her to take a look at the crowd earlier. Without thinking, Anne crossed the street. Even though she already knew that the time for the red light was almost over, Anne didn't care, she just kept walking across the zebra crossing. But after taking just three steps, suddenly the traffic light turned green, Anne panicked. She couldn't possibly turn back because several cars from where she had originally crossed had started running, while in front, the stopped cars had not started the engine. Without thinking, Anne chose to continue her steps by running. However, Anne's running speed was not quick enough than the speed of the cars. When she had almost reached the other side of the street, suddenly there was a large truck speeding. Many people had shouted for the truck to stop because of Anne, but because the truck was traveling at a fairly high speed, the heavy car could not stop suddenly. As a result, there was a panic in that place, Anne, who was still on the zebra crossing, was confused. She panicked about what to do. She didn't know whether to go back or forward. She was in a difficult position, especially when there were so many people shouting, asking her to leave where she was standing now, which made Anne even more confused. While her mind went blank, suddenly someone grabbed Anne's hand and pulled her suddenly to the side of the road. Luckily, the person who grabbed Anne's arm moved quickly, because right after he managed to bring Anne to the side of the road, the speeding truck passed and cursed Anne, who was kneeling on the paving box with a pale face.

"Are you all right, Miss?" asked a man who was helping Anne in a friendly manner.

"I-I..."

"Anne!!! Are you crazy?!!" Linda shouted loudly, suddenly emerging from the crowd of people who circled Anne and the man who helped her.

Anne lifted her face when she heard Linda's voice, her eyes filled with tears as soon as she realized Linda was in front of her.

"I thought you were missing, Linda," said Anne quietly.

Linda was surprised. She didn't expect the first sentence that came out of Anne's lips was an expression of concern because she had suddenly disappeared.

"Idiot! How could I be lost? I already have a boyfriend, Anne, I'm not a child who could be lost because she saw a crowd like this," answered Linda quickly as she hugged Anne tightly.

"Naughty, why didn't you say you wanted to separate yourself from me? I panicked earlier, Linda," said Anne annoyed.

Linda smiled and took her hand from Anne. "I'm sorry, Anne."

"Don't repeat that, we're in a foreign country, Linda. I don't want Paul to scold me because you're missing," said Anne quietly.

"Yeah, I know, I'm sorry."

Anne smiled slowly. She then wiped the tears that came out of the corners of her eyes. The people who surrounded Anne and Linda seemed to be smiling. Although they didn't speak English very well but they knew what the two girls were talking about at the moment, including the man who helped Anne who had stood up and took out his cell phone because he got a call.

"Okay, I'm back sir," replied the man in a fairly loud voice. After saying that, he then closed his cell phone and immediately ran to a car parked not far from where he was.

Anne, who realized that she had been helped by the man before, then looked for the man to say thank you, but because the helper had left, she couldn't say thank you. Anne, who was still sitting in the paving box, only saw a car driven by her helper passing not far from where she was now. When Anne was about to scream to say thank you, Anne's face suddenly paled when she saw the figure of the man sitting in the back seat of the car that was passing through. Even though Anne could clearly see the face of the man with black glasses, Anne's eyes immediately filled with tears.

"Anne, what's wrong?" Linda asked in confusion when she saw Anne's change in attitude.

Silently, Anne raised her hand and pointed to the car she was still looking at. "Jack… I saw Jack in the car, it's him, Linda."
