Between Textbook and Temptation (Intersex) ON HOLD!!!

CHAPTER 15

Prof. Avengoza's POV

"Can I kiss you again?"

What the heck just happened? Kanina lang pumasok siya dito sa office ko na mukhang wala sa mood then all of the sudden she grabbed and kissed me.

Ramdam ko pa rin ang galit sa katawan ko dahil sa ginawa ni Callen. Sinigawan ko pa siya dahil dun parang nakakalimutan niya last time na nag-usap kami nung dinner namin sa mga Pelaez about having a consent first. But I'm not saying that I will let her again to kiss me just because she asked now.

"Are you nuts?!" My emotions are so high right now. You can't blame me because first she boldly grabbed and forcefully kissed me and her actions earlier were something that I'm still trying to heal on.

"Do you think I will let you again just because you ask now?" I asked her with my eyes squinting. Para lang siya estatwa sa kinakatayuan niya na para bang hinihintay ang sagot ko which is obvious naman na hindi.

"I'm not really good at reading someone's facial expression but I'm hundred percent confident that you liked my kiss."

What? Where did she got that audacity? "You." Dinuro ko siya sabay turo ng pinto, "Get out of my office now, Callen."

"I won't. Until I hear that you liked it."

"What aspect of harassing me would make me say that I liked what you've done? Callen, you're one of the people who knew what happened to me the last time and the trauma it brought to me that will haunt me for the long time."

Nanghina na lang boses ko. Wala siya pinagkaiba kay Mr. Ferrer—I know she's kind of troublemaker pero that night na tinulungan niya ako alam kong mabait siyang tao. Pero bakit iba kinikilos niya ngayon? Mali ba ako ng pagkakakilala sayo, Callen? What if she could've done worse now than the last time someone harassed me? I suddenly felt scared.

She exhaled probably realizing what she have done.

"I'm sorry miss. Nadala lang ako..I'm not that kind of person you're thinking right now."

"Kinain lang siguro ako ng galit. I feel like I am not myself when I am mad."

Silence.

Nakita ko na lang napatungo siya. Pinakiramdam ko ang sarili ko kung nagsasabi ba siya ng totoo. Naalala ko kanina pagkapasok niya na mukhang wala siya sa mood.

As far as I know merong event ang engineering department ngayong araw kaya hindi ako nakapag-klase sa kanila. Kaya lang naman siya pumunta dito dahil nilagyan ko ng notes yung textbook kung kailan lang siya pwede pumunta sa office ko.

"That doesn't excuse for you to harass me."

Napaangat na ulit siya ng tingin and looks at me so defensively, "Excuse me miss. I didn't harass you."

"Yes you were. I practically felt you were forcing your tongue against mine and—" natigil na lang ako sa mga sinasabi ko. I kinda regret instantly na yun pa yung part na sinabi ko. "That. And you grabbed me closer to you..that's harassment."

"I already apologize miss. What more do you want? Do I have to kneel over salt?" Saan ba namana ni Callen ang kagaspangan ng ugali niya? Ang yabang talaga ng dating niya sa akin. She thought she can superior anyone especially me dahil sa mga balasubas niyang sagot.

"Can you just get out of my office room now?" Gustuhin ko man siya itulak palabas ayaw ko naman gumawa ng eksena dahil baka may ibang faculty members pa ang maabutan kami sa hallway and that would be so embarrassing because I can sense right now hindi talaga nagpapatinag si Callen.
