Hello Employer!

"Juri come here!"

"Just a second!" Two years have passed, I was able to adapt with the culture of this country, just a little bit more and I will be able to complete my course.

"As expected, Juri does well in this style." One of my co-student who commissioned me to do her template looks at me excitedly.

"I am telling you, just this part and the rest must be done by yourself, the professor might have noticed this." I do accept side jobs that keep me, but if it is related to school work I set limitations, like this one.

"Awww, I'll double my payment, I can transfer it now if you want, then I can also add another ten percent upon completion." This is what I hate, they think because I accept their money, they can just keep me taking the rest of their responsibility.

"No, that's the limit." I already received the full payment for the job she asked me to do and I am firm with my terms and conditions, I don't want to get in trouble with the professor.

"I'm done, see ya around then!" Packing up my materials, I scoop my bag and leave them. I haven't reached the door yet. I heard them talking already.

"There she goes, she is so fast, after a task she will just leave." The girl commented.

"That's sister Juri for you, she is a senior student don't be a fool if you think you can overwork her?" The other girl commented.

"Just who does she think she is?"

This has been a normal occurrence to me, first I didn't expect that I would be welcomed by the younger peers, it makes me feel like the same with them.

"You are twenty seven already? I thought you were still a teen." Having a baby-face and petite body, I am really often mistaken as a teenager, plus it is not to brag but I have quite a pretty face that the locals often get attracted to me.

"Having a pretty face like that is a big help." Yes, since my ethnicity is different from the locals of Amsonia, I seem to attract them, there are other foreigners here in the University in the other department as well, it's just that in the Art department there are less of us here.

"Juri! Finally I found you!" Alex, who is one of the foreign students I mentioned, is also a friend of mine, he is from the North and has a very noticeable accent, he is of the same age as me and he is currently taking his masteral degree in arts.

"I just finished a job, what is it?" It is normal for him to wrap an arm around my shoulder, it is quite a skinship that shocked me at first, but since we have known each other for a while, I have learned that in the North they are also these much friendly, and speaking of Amsonia people's point of view: It's normal. They don't judge a man and a woman who are in this close proximity.

"I have a job to offer you, would you like this?" He immediately showed the flyer from the Theater department.

"But I am not good at acting." Yes, I earn this way. One of the things I like in this university, is that students can take part time jobs within the university, they allow them to hire and give salary for those they hire. It is a student budget and the tasks aren't that hard, through this it will also widen the network of students in the university. This is how me and Alex have met before.

"No worries, this is just a simple shooting, like modelling or something."

"I see, then let's check it out."

On the other hand, the room that Juri has left was entered by the students from the theater department. The person behind the woman who seems to be looking around caught the attention of those who are in the classroom.

"Hey isn't that from the drama?"

"Oh my gosh, he looks taller and handsome in person!" Liezl, who can hear the people gossiping, looks behind and stares at Kallistos from head to foot.

"If they just know how much of a jerk this guy is, they will not be looking at him with such intense curiosity." Is what she thinks of in her mind and tries not to let out the words. Kallistos noticed and tilted his head while smiling. The girls in the room squeal with the display of his charms that has left Liezl speechless. Kallistos went up ahead and spoke to the girls who were working on a canvas.

"Excuse ladies, may I ask a question?" With his gentle looking eyes and smooth manner the girls are in awe of him.

"Y-Yes what is it?"

"Do you happen to know where is Ms. Juri?" Upon hearing the name the girl in question gives a sigh-like response. She was the one who just hired her for the task and was talking behind Juri just a few moments ago.

"Juri just left earlier, you just missed her." The other girl who wants to engage in the conversation with Kallistos answered instead.

"I see, then can I ask where she went?"

"That girl is busy taking side jobs, so we don't know where or who she is with." There is a bitter taste with her words.

"Well it's true, she hangs around almost everyone, who knows what might be her business right?" The other girls started and they giggled making fun of the person. This upsets Kallistos, but he did not let his emotion get ahead over him.

"Thank you for the information. I'll be going then."

"Wait!" The first girl he spoke to halted him.

"What business do you have for Juri? Maybe I can help you with it?" It was a clear statement that she has other thoughts on her mind so he just brushed it off hiding his disgust.

"No thanks, only Juri can do what I need for." With the cold face the girls were left gasping and infuriated after being humiliated by Kallistos.

"So did you know where she went?" Liezl caught up with him as they went out of the room.

"They said, she just got out, we missed her."

"Ah, then we shall proceed with whatever we have later then, I hope Jericho finds her. As they went to the studio, they saw the rest who were in a slump, that means that they also failed to find Juri.

"Let's just change the theme and get one of the girls earlier." Jericho spoke.

"We cannot delay any further than this." Ellenor has given up and agreed.

"What about the essence of the theme?" Kallistos, who is still hopeful, tried to persuade them more, however the rest just gave up the idea. He hated it most when things didn't go his way. He is about to leave the room when they hear quarrels from the other studio.

"Who was it?" The whole team went to look out at the commotion.

*Slaps!

It was one hard hit on the face of the director from the other team.

"I would rather take manual labor than to take your shots asshole!" The girl is clearly angry and the other guy just trembles and speechless.

"Who is that girl? He dared to slap one of the B-rank directors in the department?" Ellenor said in surprise.

"It's Juri!"

"W-what?"
