Consequences

Chapter 3

⚠️ UNEDITED

--------

"Ms. Hernandez, stay after class."

Kopyahin ko nga mga nababasa kong professor sa wattpad.

Credits sakanila, alam ko na kung paano ko e-lulure tong kapre.

The presence of hers illuminated behind me. I turned around to face the woman once all my things were in tack. A quizzical look was plastered on her face. "Yes, Miss?"

Ganon man ang pinapakita niya, halatang-halata ko gusto niya na lumayas at iwasan na naman ako. Ilang araw na siyang ganon, nakakainis hindi ko maharot.

Kung gaano katagal niya ako iniiwasan, ganon rin katagal nung last interaction namin which is nung nasa parking lot. Di ko pa rin nakukuha yung sagot sa tanong ko dahil sa pag-aalis niya kaagad sa klase.

I scanned the room first, ensuring there weren't any students left before returning my gaze to hers. "It's Daniella, Victoria. Tulungan mo ako sa gamit ko papuntang office." My hands gestured to the pile of activities and stuffs on the desk.

Actually, sinadya ko talaga damihan mga gamit ko pati na rin mga sandamakmak na pinagawa ko sakanila para ma-execute to.

She nodded, obliging the order I've given. Ayan, good doggy. Ma-amo naman pala to.

Both of us headed out of the room, advancing towards the office of mines but with her trailing behind. Mukha na talaga siyang aso na nakasunod sa amo tas ang laki pa ng agwat namin sa isa't isa. Hindi naman ako nangangain ah? Bat di tuloy siya tumabi sa akin.

I opened the door, letting her in first before myself. When she was at some distance away from me, dahan-dahan kong nilock ang pintuan para di marinig ang tunog nito. Outside and within ang pwede e-paglock sa pintuan ng office ko gamit susi. The said keys were quickly inputted inside my brassiere, wala siyang takas sa akin ngayon.

At the moment she had placed all my things neatly on the table, tinangka na nito lumayas kaagad habang palapit ako sakanya. "You're not dismissed yet." I authoritatively said, sitting on the swivel chair.

Hinarapan niya ako muli, mga mata'y sobrang lamig na mas malamig pa kumpara sa mga gusto niyong walang interesado sa inyo tuwing makikipag-usap. "What is it, Miss?" Irritadong tanong niya. Ramdam ko talaga gusto nito umirap pero nagpipigil.

"You still have an unfinished task." I stated, breaking eye contact to look at my laptop's screen.

"What?" Skepticism is evident in her tone. "That couldn't be. I assure you ma'am I've passed every requiremen-"

"-Meron ka pang kulang." Pinutol ko sasabihin niya.

Hindi ko man nakikita, I do know she had her eyebrows furrowing again. "If so, then tell me what is it?"

"Hindi mo sinagot tanong ko doon sa parking lot. Uno ka saakin kapag nasagot mo yon." Seryoso kong saad, di pa rin siya binabalingan ng tingin at nag-aayos ng mga records sa laptop ko.

I raised my head a little, but not fully to engage eye contact with her. Just enough na mahagip siya ng peripheral vision ko. She bit her lip, looking away from my figure in contemplation.

Hot.

"If I don't?" She asked.

"Sabihin ko sa mga kaibigan kong prof mo rin na e three ka sa grades." Tsaka ko na siya tinignan pagkasabay ko bigkasin yon.

She scowled, rolling her eyes. "You can't do that. The code of ethics for teachers had said-"

"-You got two minutes para sagutin ang tanong ko noon. If you fail to answer, say goodbye to your almost perfect grades." I stared at her with boredom.
