I'm yours, Professor (Quadro Series #2)

Chapter 44

"Everything is settled, just call me when you're ready." Nginitian niya lang si Kyx bago tumango.

Kakatapos lang nila lumipat sa penthouse. Kagaya ng pinag-usapan nila kahapon siya na ang lumipat ng iilang gamit nila. Kyx is currently helping her, habang si Quinn naman ay nasa bakery nila. Yes, their business is up and running. Madali lang ang pag-lipat niya dahil wala siyang masyadong dinala kundi ang mga damit nila at gamit nina Apple at Cally pati na din ng jellyfish nila.

Halos hindi nga siya pinag-pawisan sa ginawa niya, medyo napagod lang ang katawan niya pero hindi niya iyon sinabi o pinakita kay Calcifer anina nag nag -video call ito sakaniya. Alam niyang pupuntahan siya agad nito.

Agad niyang nilinis ang sarili niya bago nag-bihis. She wore a black dress that hug her body, pero medyo maulan ang panahon at tinamad na siyang mag-bihis kaya kumuha na lang siya ng isang hoodie ni Calcifer bago iyon isinuot. Akmang kukunin niya ang cellphone niya para tawagan si Kyx ng may napansin siya sa sleeve nito. Wala sa sarili siyang napangiti.

Her name is embroidered in the sleeve with a pink thread. It's so visible that anyone can see it on first glance. He really did embroidered her name in his clothes.

"Attina?" Agad siyang lumabas sa kwarto niya ng marinig niya na tinawag siya ni Kyx. "You ready?" Tanong nito sakaniya ng makita siya. Agad siyang tumango. Silently both of them walk toward the elevator. She's relieved that Kyx's is comfortable enough to be around her, if she's being honest. Kyx being kind and understanding at her ever since the beginning have help her.

Kung kagaya nito si Bishop na ayaw din sakaniya alam niya na a-ayaw na siya noon. Nang makarating sila sa parking lot agad naman siya pumasok sa sasakyan. Hindi kalayuan ang resort nito kaya alam niyang hindi sila matatagalan. In the middle of their drive, she felt the urge to say something to Kyx and she did. Kyx's has been nothing but respectful and helpful toward them.

Somehow she felt that she belong to their family because of him and Quinn. Back then feeling Kyx's welcoming nature make her feel less guilty about keeping Calcifer even though she's still in a relationship. He's cool.

"Thank you Kyx."

Kyx subtly glance at her, halatang nagtataka ito dahil sa sinabi niya. "For what?"

She shrug. "For everything." She look out the window. "Thank you for not being mad at me." Tinignan niya nito. "Thank you for being with Calcifer when all those scandals happen." Hindi niya alam pero gusto niya lang iyon sabihin. "Thank you for letting me have your brother." Wala siyang inaasahan kung ano sa sagot ni Kyx basta gusto niya lang iyon sabihin. "Thank you for giving me a chance to be deserving for you brother. I appreciate it."

Kyx went silent. Huminga lang siya ng malalim bago tumingin sa labas ng sasakyan. "Why didn't you leave?" Agad siya napatingin dito, medyo hindi niya naintindihan ang tanong nito. "All those years. Wala kang ginawa. Bakit hindi ka umalis?"

She smile sadly. "What for?" Isa-isa pumasok sa isip niya ang mga rason sa kung bakit ayaw niya umalis noon. Mahal niya ang mga ito at wala siyang ibang pamilya kundi sila. "All my life, they made me feel that they're the only people who could love me." She sigh as she look Kyx briefly. "It's hard to leave from everything that you know and love but I was just stupid."

"Then why did you leave them?" Agad na tanong nito ng matapos siyang mag- salita. Medyo kinabahan siya dahil napaka-seryuso ito. Hindi siya sanay na makita ganon si Kyx. "After all those years. Bakit ngayon ka lang umalis?"
