In a Secret Relationship With My Professor (Series 1)

CHAPTER 30

I lifted my hands, put it on my neck and massaged it. I composed a message and send it to Knox.

Me:

Knox, I’m afraid.

Knox baby:

Calm down, baby. I’m here. Let me handle it. Konan is already making a move to take down all the photos.

I close my eyes and sighed. What a nice way to ruin my mood this Christmas, Blythe.

You’re getting into my nerves.

I stood up from my seat and went to the kitchen. I’m thirsty. I need to drink a cold water to calm myself somehow.

“Oh, Samantha! Anong kailangan mo hija?” Tita Kath asked when she saw me entered the kitchen. Nagkukwentuhan kasi si Mama at Tita Kath dito sa kusina. They are wearing a red dress flaunting their white skin.

“Malamig na tubig, Tita. Nauuhaw ako,” I smiled at her.

Tumayo si Mama pero pinigilan ko siya, “Ako na lang Ma.” She nodded and sat on her seat.

I opened their refrigerator and took the pitcher. I filled my glass and drink it slowly.

I saw Knox entered the kitchen with his worried face as he looked at me.

“Nauuhaw ka rin?” Tita Kath gaze followed Knox.

Knox just nodded and opened their hanging cabinet and get the juice powder. He went beside me and put some in the pitcher then he stirred it.

I smell the scent of melon as the juice powder being stirred to the water. Naglalaway tuloy ako.

Kumuha siya ng baso at nilagyan ito. Palihim na ibinigay niya ito sa akin at kinuha ang basong nagamit ko ng inuman. He filled it with melon juice and drink it.

My mouth agape when I saw him gulped as he drink his juice. I shifted my gaze to my glass and drink it too. Through my peripheral vision, I saw Tita Kath winked at me secretly when my mother is weren’t looking at her.

Tita Kath took a glanced at her watch, “Merry Christmas everyone!” she greeted and jumped in happiness.

“Let’s go, take a picture!” she held my mother’s hands and went to the living room.

I felt Knox hands on my waist. I looked at him. A smile appeared on his lips, assuring me that everything will be fine.

“Let’s go, baby,” he whispered.

I nodded as a response. Inunahan ko na siyang maglakad para hindi mapansin ang magulang ko na may kakaiba sa amin.

Unang magpipicture ang pamilya ni Knox sa malaking Christmas tree nila dito sa salas nila. Marami rin gift box sa ilalim ng Christmas tree nila. Kyran handed me their DSLR camera. “Ikaw po ang magpicture sa amin,” she smiled.

I get from her hand the DSLR camera and took them a picture.

“Okay, 1, 2, 3 smile!” they are all smiling at the camera.

Tita Kath and Kyran wearing a red spaghetti dress, Tito Kiel wearing a red three piece suit while Knox and Kib is just wearing a red signature shirt from my business. Napangiti ako ng makita ko ang mukha ni Knox. Ang gwapo niya kahit ano pa ang isuot nito.

I took a multiple shoot of them. Hanggang sa kami naman ang magpicture. My mother is wearing a red dress while Papa is wearing a red three piece suit like Tito Kiel, wow best friend goals ‘yan. I am wearing a red chiffon polkadot dress while Chubby Cassidy is wearing a signature shirt from my clothing line business.
