Lahat ng Kabanata ng Wanting Professor Darwin : Kabanata 11 - Kabanata 20

JEREMYThe days passed in a blur, and it was safe to say that my theory of trying to ignore Lucia to get her back was an epic fail. She didn’t even seem to care that I did not try to grab her attention anymore, and it truly hurt my heart. On the other hand, my friendship with Amber seemed to be blossoming, and by friendship, I meant her following me about like a lost puppy and trying to talk to me at every second.It was definitely one-sided.I don’t like Amber. Not even a little bit. She is an asshole and I’m not saying that to be an asshole, but I could tell from the little things she did.The way she spoke to waiters, janitors, and everyone whom she thought was beneath her. She always made some backhanded comments, which were totally uncalled for, and just made me stop and pause.I was also pretty sure she was a bully, and she was definitely a brat who threw a fit if things didn’t go her way.So despite the fact that she was pretty, she was also very unlikable, and I thought it w

LUCIAI was shaken by what I saw earlier, but I managed to remain composed as I continued teaching the class. I couldn’t allow my emotions to be turned upside down by a mere college student. That was beneath me.I continued teaching, glad that my voice did not tremble one bit despite how I felt. I was about to round up with the class when my eyes darted towards Jeremy once more. I saw the girl run her fingers over his chin delicately while he gave her a small smile, and I instantly froze, feeling my insides clench with anger and discomfort. I really hated seeing him with someone else, and the level at which it affected me terrified me. I felt my hands clenched into fists by my sides before forcing myself to pay attention back to the class. “Alright, class,” I managed to say, forcefully tearing my eyes away from Jeremy and his little girlfriend. “Make sure I get your assignments in my mail by friday. Class dismissed.” The lecture hall was now filled with noise and chatter as the s

LUCIADespite the fact that I asked Jeremy to see me after the class, I waited and waited for him to show up, but he was nowhere to be found.My heart sank deeper and deeper in my chest as the minutes ticked by, and I watched the door again and again as I almost lost my mind, waiting for him to show up.I knew he was with that girl. I could tell, and for a moment, I was tempted to leave the office, find him where he was, and drag him down here, but I figured that would be too excessive.Everything that was happening was my fault in the first place. I was the one who kept pushing him away. I was the one who told him to leave me alone, and he simply did what I asked.I honestly had no right to be mad at him. He was the one who should be mad at me. With those thoughts in my head, I let out a sigh, continuing with my tasks for the day while trying and failing to stop thinking about Jeremy. I managed to teach the rest of my class and soon, it was evening. Jeremy still had not shown himsel

LUCIA Once Beth left, I slowly prepared for bed, and once I lay down, it didn’t take long for the thoughts that I had been trying to escape to invade my mind.I had made a horrible mistake, and I didn’t even realize it at the time. How could I be so stupid and careless?How could I have sex with my students on campus grounds? In my office? Without even locking the door? There was no explanation for this. I had lost my damn mind. That was for sure. I couldn’t believe what I had done?What if a professor or student walked in on us at the time? What would I have done then?The fact that nobody walked in on us did not make me less afraid. The fact that we did it on school grounds again and again was still horrible.What if someone had heard us from outside? My heart rate sped up at the possibility, and my hands and feet instantly began trembling at the possibility.If someone had overheard us from outside, it meant that we were not off the hook just yet. The thoughts of what could happ

JEREMYI let out a loud sigh, running my fingers through my hair as I looked at my four friends who stared back at me with eager expressions on their faces. I was left with no choice but to tell them. If I didn’t, they would force it out of me one way or another.“Fine,” I said, my expression turning agitated and the eager looks on my friends' faces intensified even more. “I only pretended to date Amber to make someone jealous.”The boys fell silent as they looked at me with utter confusion written on their faces. “What?” Dean said, his eyebrows rising in confusion. “Why would you want to make someone jealous, and who is this someone?” I let out a loud sigh, pressing my fingers to my forehead. This was the part that was going to shock them all, and I had no idea how they would take the news.“It’s a woman, and I did it because I’m in love with her.” “What?!” The four of them exclaimed in unison, their eyes growing wide as loud gasps escaped their lips.“You’re in love?!” Jack yell
