"MISS CRIMSON! YOU'RE REALLY HERE!"
I barely had taken two steps before voices rang in every direction.
"YOUR TIGER SCULPTURE IS MAGNIFICENT!"
"I CAN'T BELIEVE YOU FINISHED IT IN ONLY THREE HOURS!"
"MISS CRIMSON, DO YOU STILL REMEMBER ME? I'M THE ONE WHO COMMISSIONED YOU TO MAKE THAT DOLPHIN STATUE!"
"MISS CRIMSON! ARE YOU AVAILABLE THIS MONTH?!"
"MISS CRIMSON, ARE YOU SECRETLY A GRAND MASTER?"
"A GRAND MASTER? HAVE YOU SEEN THE WORKS OF OTHER GRAND MASTERS?! MISS CRIMSON'S WORKS ARE OTHERWORLDLY! SHE'S LIKE A GODDESS!"
'First of all, why was everyone shouting and who are these people?!'
I frowned as people crowded around me from every direction. Some were holding notebooks, others had their hands clasped over their chests as if they were meeting their long-lost savior, and a few were looking at me with such sparkling eyes that I began to suspect they were planning to worship me.
"Excuse me," I said, raising my voice above the commotion. "How did you even see my statue?"
