"It's just a name. What's the big deal? Yvette's signature is fancy and you're not cultured enough to understand it." Xanthe scolded mercilessly. The young delivery guy confirmed with Yvette again, "Excuse me, are you Ms Shakira Nelson?" Yvette's voice caught in her throat as she was about to respond. "Who?"

Xanthe got angry before Yvette could. "You mean these three cakes were ordered for Shakira?" The three delivery men spoke in unison. "Yes, it's for Shakira. Which one of you is Ms. Shakira?"

Xanthe, with her arms crossed, mocked. "You can't even afford to order one. It costs 60,000 dollars each!"

Shakira, looking at Yvette's embarrassed face, with a barely noticeable smile, said to the class monitor, "Could you please distribute the cakes among everyone? "Uh, sure, thank you, Shakira," said the class monitor.

"You're welcome," Shakira replied.

Shakira cut a small piece for herself and returned to her seat to savor it slowly.

Everyone snapped back and chose I the 60,000 dollars cake over the affordable milk shake silently.

Dakota Ortiz quickly calmed down. "You guys could also try the milk shake."

"Sure, sure, thank you, Dakota," said the classmates.
