MY PROFESSOR'S LITTLE SECRET CHAPTER TWENTY-TWO
“Who is she?” I had no clue but I couldn't take my eyes off the couple. The lady was stunning in her red ball gown. Her hair was swept to the left side of her neck elongating her features. Her lips were painted a deep red, reminding me of deep blue sea sirens from cartoons. My yellow gown seemed so pale and ugly in comparison to hers. “Let’s go.” Becka pulled me along with her as we left that area. I was grateful she had as I was almost sure I would’ve embarrassed myself doing something stupid. “Leah?” An unsure voice sounded and I turned my eyes to the direction to the sound. “Mrs Hamilton.” The shock in my voice was so apparent. I wasn’t expecting to see her at a school function. “Mr Hamilton.” I greeted and shot Becka a questioning look but she wasn’t looking at me. There was mischief in her eyes and I feared what would happen. “I thought I told you to call me David.” I chuckled nervously and apologised. They offered us seats and I realised we were in the dining area. People ha

I woke up to the jerk of my body.“Leah!”“Leah wake up. You can’t pass out.”“Hmm?” My head felt a little light. We were still in front of the building.“Here, just apply pressure.” He handed me his suit jacket.“Get in.”“I’m not going to the hospital.”“Just get in.” He gritted out. I rolled my eyes at him and wondering why the fuck he was pissed. If anyone had the right to be pissed, it was me.I heard a sudden sound and turned around but there was no one or thing in sight. I shrugged it of and closed the door.The drive was silent with Jared checking on me every once or twice. I was tired of him looking at me every damn second like I was going to die from some cut.“Can you please face the road so I don’t actually die?” I scowled at him. His sudden care after icing me out wasn’t even placating my mood, especially after seeing him with her. I was pissed as fuck.His fist turned white on the steering wheel as he clenched his jaw tight, not saying a word even when we finally reached
MY PROFESSOR'S LITTLE SECRET CHAPTER TWENTY-FOUR
I opened my eyes when his lips never came, wondering what went wrong. Our closeness gave me a jumpscare and I traced where his eyes had fallen. There was a very small scar on my chest, one that no one ever noticed. They’d made a small incision, a chest tube thoracostomy, there when they realised I had a collapsed lung from the accident.Jared’s fingers traced the small scar with questions in his eyes, causing my breath to quicken.“I had an accident about four years ago.” I inhaled sharply. I never liked to talk about it, not even with Becka. Becka… a pained expression filled my face as I remembered the details of the night. My mood was ruined so I moved away from Jared and found my way to the living room.He followed after me and sat beside me.“I was in a coma for two years.” A humourless smile stretched my lips and there was evident shock on Jared’s face when I glanced at him briefly, his lips parted, unsure of what to say.“Yeah. We uhm…” I swallowed a huge lump of saliva and he p
MY PROFESSOR'S LITTLE SECRET CHAPTER TWENTY-FIVE
I’d woken up to an empty room. Jared hadn’t slept in the same room for my comfort even though that wasn’t what I wanted but I understood what he meant. I was in his actual room upstairs. He had such a large space that it was possible to get lost in it.My arm no longer hurt and I wondered what kind of magical touch Jared had. Maybe it hadn’t been that bad and the events had just made it seem like it was something so terrible.I picked up my phone to check the time. It was 10am. I’d slept the whole night. Something I hadn’t been able to achieve in months.Becka hadn’t texted either making what had happened last night almost feel like a dream.I went to the bathroom to wash up. Thank goodness for a mouth wash.I usually spent Saturdays at home, just looking at the ceiling. It was weird that I was in someone else’s house.Jared had left a change of clothes for me and I had to roll them up so I wouldn’t trip from their bagginess.“Hey.” The smell of breakfast wafted towards my nose and my
MY PROFESSOR'S LITTLE SECRET CHAPTER TWENTY-SIX
Exams were over for the semester and that meant I had more time to spend with Jared over the short break.The message I’d received from the anonymous sender got deleted before I even had time to think it through. What did they mean “I know what you did?”I couldn’t think of one person that could’ve sent me such text message so I ignored it, ruling it as a fluke.Jared and I remained careful though. Whenever I went to his house, it was always late evening and I was in his black hoodie, something he’d given me when I realised mine were not just big enough to hide me.I unwrapped my towel and got dressed in the room. Ashley walked in and said hi, I greeted her back. It’d been a while since we’d fought and we’d settled on civility to keep the peace of the room.I hadn’t even seen her friends around of late. Maybe it was because she wasn’t in the room all the time either.“Going somewhere?” I tried and failed to fight the smile that stretched my face even though I didn’t like her.“Ouu. A
MY PROFESSOR'S LITTLE SECRET CHAPTER TWENTY-SEVEN
I didn’t text Jared back for the longest time. I was immature. I didn’t care. He’d bailed on me last minute and gone out with some other chick. I didn’t think he was a cheat but I also didn’t know if I could trust him.‘Was that his fiance? Are they now back together?’ I pondered as I lay on my back on my bed, looking at the ceiling.The last time we’d talked about his fiance, he’d just simply said she broke up with him and not the other way around. I could also tell it was something that grieved him deeply and he probably wasn’t over her.The woman I’d seen, her face hadn’t looked familiar and I wondered if being with him meant I’d be sharing him with other woman.I groaned as I turned in position to face the wall, my head hurting from all the thinking I was doing. He had texted me once asking if you we could meet. Obviously, I said I was busy even though the ceiling seemed to have more interesting things going on for it than what I had going on in my life.I bit my lip as I scrolled
MY PROFESSOR'S LITTLE SECRET CHAPTER TWENTY-EIGHT
I spent the short break away from everyone, including Alyssa. Of course I missed Jared like crazy but what was I to do? I didn’t need anyone telling me what was clear as day. That singular act made me believe I didn’t mean a thing to him. “How was the break?” A girl spoke beside me. We’d never spoken before and it surprised me that there was a smile on her face as she looked at me. “It was fine, thank you?” She didn’t even mind that I had said it as a question due to my surprise and she just nodded and smiled. “Well, that was weird.” I found my way easily to class unlike the beginning of last semester when I easily got lost. Thankfully, the class was quite scanty and I could easily pick a seat. Usually, when you picked a seat, it was where you most likely sat for the rest of the semester. People continued to trickle in as the time neared the hour. I kept my head down, scrolling through I*******m reels not realising the class had quieted down. “Guys, welcome back to school.” My hea
MY PROFESSOR'S LITTLE SECRET CHAPTER TWENTY-NINE
I picked up my books for the second time today and balanced them on my arm. How could I betray myself like that? People were trooping out of classes and passing by. A teacher helping up a student wasn’t weird. What was weird was him standing in the middle of the hallway and just openly staring. I prepared myself mentally. I was going to walk away from this man, literally and emotionally. I knew he couldn’t run after me. Would he if he could? The thought left a bitter taste in mouth. All those kisses, all those words, they were lies. I hadn’t moved too far when a text came in. It could only be one person but I didn’t check to confirm. Not now. My fourth and last class of the day was about to be over when our results were released simultaneously. I knew I had done my best in my exams but I felt a sense of dread fill me as I opened the results section of our school portal. “What the fuck?” I had scored a C in Jared’s course. That was practically impossible. It was the only course I’d
