Chapter 12: Do You Want To?

“Gangsters?” Cut Emma, ??trying to control her expression to stay calm. “Are they a big group of gangsters?”

Calvin shook his head, “Despite having a lot of cheap bars and casinos, they are still considered as small gangsters.”

“Do you mean, there are still big gangsters in this city? Are they that big that they are running all the way outside of Handway City?” Emma’s heart was beating fast. If there were that big gangster in this city, they might know her father. And it didn’t take long for Emma’s true identity to be revealed.

“There is. But they didn’t run rampant out of Handway City. This city is too small and desolate. Honestly, no one would ever think that there are gangsters in this city. They are like parasites. Ruining other people’s lives with their filth. ” The guy was muttering to himself.

“Y.. you’re right. Gangsters are annoying..” Emma nodded weakly. She felt a small stab in her heart, remembering that she was the daughter of a high-class mafia leader which was had the same dirty job as the gangsters.

Emma grew up with the treasures earned by destroying other people’s lives. Very sad and disgusting.

“Hey..” Calvin laughed as he snapped his fingers in Emma’s face. “What happened to you?”

.....

“No.. Sorry I was daydreaming.” Emma grinned awkwardly. Then she glanced at her watch, “Oh.. my class is about to start. I better go now.” she jumped down from the wall.

“Hey.. Be careful, the ground below is uneven.” Calvin said jokingly. But he was actually serious about his words. What Emma had just done was quite dangerous with the dancer’s legs.

“Thank you. But I’m fine. Don’t underestimate the dancer’s legs..” She said with her shoulders rising. If Calvin thought that dancer’s legs were weak, then that guy was definitely wrong.

“Bye ..” Calvin waved his hand at Emma who had done it first, as he was about to walk away from her.

A well-built body girl was stretching alone. Dressed in a tight pink ballet costume, she looked like a fairy in a fairy tale.

The girl’s name was Emma Hilland. She would come to ballet class very early for practice. Without having to reveal it herself, everyone would have known how much she loved that elegant dance.

But there was something different about Emma’s activities this time. From her cute face, she seemed to be thinking about something serious. It made the girl didn’t realize, that there was another girl stretching beside her.

A girl with bright blue irises was watching Emma closely.

“Ehmm..” The girl tried to be polite, so that Emma would notice her presence.

“Oh? Hey ..” Emma greeted as soon as she realized the arrival of the girl with curly red hair that was forced to be styled with updo style.

“I’ve always seen you come as an early bird. But this is the first time I’ve had a chance to talk to you.” The girl smirked like a horse while scratching her neck which didn’t itch. Then she stretched out her pale hand, “I’m Kathania Dusk. I hope I’m not bothering you.. Haha..”

Seeing Kathania’s cheerful and shy nature, Emma cracked a warm smile. She immediately shook the hand, “I’m Emma Hillland. You’re not bothering me at all, for real.” Emma laughed. “Ah.. By the way, you usually come late.”

“Huh? You noticed, don’t you?” Kathania stared.

Emma nodded approvingly, “I always saw you come at least ten minutes after the class started. Sorry, I didn’t greet you first all that time. Actually, I’m not very good at socializing.” she laughed sadly.

“No.. No..” Khatania shook her head quickly until a few strands of her curly hair were free from the bun, “Honestly. I thought you felt that we were from different world castes, so you didn’t talk to us. You know.. Look at that mirror. See what you look like..” She pointed at the big mirror in front of them with her chin.

Emma scratched her forehead with her index finger, “Haha.. I know, people like to think that way. But it’s better not to judge other people by their physical appearance, right?”

“Oops! Sorry, I didn’t mean to offend you. I mean...”

“I know.. It’s okay.” Emma smiled kindly. She understood that Kathania didn’t mean anything offending to her.

Clack! Bam!

They both looked at the source of the sound. Another girl had just entered through the ballet room’s heavy door. The door closed with a bang in one slam. Even though it was closed hard, but everyone knew that the girl didn’t mean to be angry. Her power was really that big.

From her stature, she must be very strong. She was tall with solid muscles. Like she was more suited to be a female wrestler than a ballet dancer. Even so, her figure still looked quite lovely, maybe because she practices ballet.

“That’s Rachel Markway. She’s very quiet and cold. All the girls here are secretly afraid of her, except Ms Diana.” Kathania whispered.

“Oh, I see..” Emma muttered. It was kind of true. She also often paid attention to the girl named Rachel. Her body was very large and muscular. It was almost the same size as the female bodyguards who used to follow Emma everywhere.

“By the way.. I heard, you’re pretty close with Calvin Lee, huh?” Kathania’s question interrupted Emma’s thoughts.

Emma looked at her questioningly, “I don’t feel close to him. What’s the matter?” she turned to ask. Just a few months after being a new student, Emma had been hit by gossip!

“Oh...” Kathania chuckled. “Actually there was gossip among the popular college students about you. They said you were close to Calvin Lee, the campus prince. They said, Calvin really cared about you. They think it was because you were so pretty and fashionable.” She explained.

Kathania’s explanation certainly made Emma gape even more. Even though Emma had only spoken to Calvin just for few times. That was all in a very short duration, like a commercial on TV. Ah.. So this was the life of a normal girl? This was the first time Emma felt what it was like to be talked about behind her back about men.

“You don’t have to think about it. The girls are known to be flirtatious. They go to college just to look up for the boys, not to study. They are just jealous of you ..” Kathania said again while waving her hand slightly.

Emma smiled, “Thanks. I’ll take your advice to ignore it. Honestly, this is the first time I’ve heard any gossip related to boys.”

“Seriously? Where did you go to school?” asked the girl curiously. Her eyes, which were surrounded by dark circles, were rounded big. How could a girl as beautiful as Emma have never been hit by gossip about guys?

Emma was a girl figure, who was able to provoke other girls to make up stories freely and become hyperbole, to make Emma look bad in the eyes of the world, just because they were too jealous of the perfection she had.

“I’ve been homeschooling for quite a while. There was a bit of a family problem ..” Emma answered lightly, but cautiously. From her tone, it was obvious that she didn’t want to discuss it any further.

“Oh.. No wonder you’re not used to it.” Nod Kathania. Then she smiled broadly, “I can be your friend. Do you want to?” she chuckles.
