TASTE OF HER VENOM
Chapter 9: Ablaze

I dropped by in this drugstore para bumili ng gamot cause right after I played archery totoong sumama ang pakiramdam ko. Uunahan ko na dahil minsan lang ako magkasakit pero sobrang tagal.

After paying, I stood in the corner to check my wallet at naisuklay ko na lang ang mga daliri ko sa buhok sa inis. May tatlong libo na lang ako at hindi ko alam kung saan aabot ang perang 'to. I kind of regretting na hindi ko pa tinanggap yung payment card ni Ellery kanina.

Going off the drugstore, I spotted Professor Del Valle standing in front of the convenience store na katapat lang ng drugstore na nilabasan ko. Mukhang may hinihintay siya na malamang ay si Kinsley nanaman.

I thought of approaching her yet I remembered what she told me earlier. Kung hindi ko talaga siya makukumbinsi then there's no reason para magdidikit pa ako sa kanya if it doesn't concern my job as her assistant.

I shrugged as I got in inside my rover. Hindi ko muna yun pinaandar at matamang tinitigan yung manibela.

Rolling down my window, I glanced over to where the professor's standing at napansin kong may mangilan-ngilan na mga lalaki ang nakatingin sa kanya. My mind suddenly brought out a same scenario kung saan muntikan na siyang masilipan ng mga gagong tropa ni Ryka.

This woman is such an eye candy..

I pulled out in the parking lot pero imbes na idiretso sa highway ay iniliko ko 'to papunta sa tapat ng convenience store. From my seat, I can perceived the professor's retorted face as I halted in front of her. Bumusina muna ako ng tatlong beses bago ibinaba ang bintana ng kotse.

Miss Zera flinched as she covered both of her ears with her hands.

"Get in" I commanded pero nawala ang angas ko nung makitang papunta na ito sa'kin na may matatalim na tingin.

"What's wrong with you, Constello?!" she yelled na parang kaming dalawa lang ang tao rito.

"Miss, please tone down your voice. Nasa public tayo" mahinang saway ko rito. She's ruining my coolness right here in the public.

"I don't care. Are you that rude to honk your car that loud?"

Napapatingin na yung mga tao sa paligid so I can't help but cursed out mentally.

"I didn't mean to do that, okay? Ano sasakay ka ba, professor?" inip kong tanong dahil kating-kati na ako makaalis sa lugar na 'to. Sorry ha pero paanong nagustuhan ni Devin ang babaeng eskandalosang kagaya niya??

"Ayoko" she replied at nagpamewang pa na parang isang donya.

"Oh let me guess? You're hoping na babalikan ka pa ng knight in shining armor mo?" may ngisi sa labing asar ko rito. Since she's waiting here, I'm sure na hindi niya dala ang kotse niya and she's with Kinsley definitely.

She fixed some fibers of her hair that got blown by the strong wind outside before replying. "Of course. He just went out to find a comfort room"

I inwardly rolled my eyes. She didn't even discredit that Kinsley is her knight in shining armor. Kung si Kinsley nga yun at si Professor Del Valle ang prinsesa, ano ako rito kalaban? Oh look what a shitty logic we've got here!

"Fine. Good afternoon na lang, professor" I saluted at her before rolling up my window.

Maneuvering my steering wheel, I drove my car just few meters away from the convenience store. Titingnan ko lang kung totoong si Kinsley ang kasama niya.
