Teach Me A Lesson

Chapter Two

My stomach starts to rumble reminding me that I need to eat my lunch now. I' am so hungry and here I' am still waiting for his uncle to come. It's already 12: 20 pm. And I'm sure this little kid is hungry now.

"Darren are you hungry?" I looked down at him and asked.

"No teacher, I'm not hungry. How about you teacher? " He asked. He looked at me and to my hands on my stomach.

"No. I'm okay Darren teacher's not hungry." I said to him at the same time my stomach growls and I know that he hear it because he looked at hands which have been placed on my stomach.

"Teacher, I guess you are already hungry. You can leave me here." he said with a serious tone like an adult.

"No, I'm not going to leave you here. Your uncle will be here any minute and I guess your Uncle is very busy today." I said embarrassed but gave him a reassuring look that I'm not going to leave him here.

"Uhmm. Yes, he is always busy every day." He said with a sad tone. As soon as I can reply there I saw a black SUV car parking in the empty lot.

"I guess that is your uncle?" I asked hoping it's really him.

"Yes it's him teacher. I've gotta go now. Thank you teacher for staying here with me." He said while standing on his feet, adjusts his backpack and gave me his first little smile. I was taken aback because of his sweet smile. It's my first time to see his smile and it really suits his little face. I just keep my cool, pretending not to be bothered by his cute smile.

"I'm coming with you dear. I want to meet your uncle." I said with a smile and I stand wiping down the little mark lines on my skirt. I'm just a little curious of who is his uncle and I want to know his reasons for being so late. We headed to his uncle's car and his uncle is already outside of his car leaning to it and scrolling at his phone. As I walk closer to the car I realized that man was wearing a white long sleeve, black tie and black pants sure he is a business man because I can tell it by the way he dress. As I walking closer and closer to the car, Darren at my side I saw a familiar one. That messy black hair and I come to realize that it was the man who nearly ruined my day, that arrogant and jerk guy who I just bumped in the morning. I flinched as I recognized his face and regret that I walk towards him. Darren was still beside me having no idea what happened to me and his uncle. He didn't notice us as we arrived at his car. He looked so focused on his phone and I don't know what he is doing maybe texting to some important matter. His attention shifted when Darren touch his arm.

"Hey there buddy I'm so sorry, Uncle's a bit busy today." He said and gets his backpack and placed it inside the car. I just stood there in my feet in disbelief like the hell is he avoiding me or what? Am I a ghost that he didn't even lay his eyes on me? Or I'm just not worthy to look at? I'm not going to stand here like ghost and being ignored. We spent most of our time just waiting for this jerk who can't even recognized me. I cleared my throat and I finally I got his attention.

"Hello Sir. Darren waited for you for almost 1 hour and I guess he is hungry by now." I said with a serious face.

"Oh well it's you again. " He said with a mocking smile. Before I could reply to him Darren said to him.

"Uncle, this is my teacher. She stayed with me until you arrived." He said while looking at me. I just gave my sweetest smile to Darren and I look at to Mr. Arrogant and gave a Now-you-know-Look.

"Oh, really? I thought you are just some passerby in this school." He said in disbelief and I can see a glint of embarrassment in his eyes. Gosh this jerk really gets in my nerves. Just some passerby? Like who the hell would even think of that.? Didn't he noticed my professional outfit or he is just not good at looking outfits.
