Kissing My Kryptonite [GL-Sapphics]

Chapter 12 - Truth or Nah

I don't know what to do honestly kasi I still don't know how Professor Cordova will react but nothing is happening.

Tumigil lang silang tatlo, binati ang isa't isa at nag-usap. Professor Juke even kissed Ma'am Navaeh's hand in front of her. What?! Is he making her jealous? O si Ma'am Navaeh talaga 'yung mystery girl?

Dala ang stick-o ko, lumapit ako para mas marinig sila and that I heard Professor Cordova congratulating them?!

"I'm so glad Professor Juke finally asked you, Navaeh. Kahit hindi natuloy unang plano niya sa function hall, he did not stop until he officially claimed you as his own."

So all along 'yung sinabotahe kong ganap in that function hall was Professor Juke and Ma'am Navaeh's special moment?

Imbes na ma-disappoint ako because I wasted time on that day at nakaperwisyo pa ako ng ibang tao, I found myself smiling like an idiot.

"Miss Veneracion!"

Ayon na nga, nakita pa ako ni Ma'am Navaeh bago ko naisip na umatras.

Humarap silang lahat sa 'kin, ngumiti lang ako ng pilit. Ako lang naman kasi ang dahilan kung bakit muntik silang 'di magkatuluyan..

"Do you mind assisting Professor Cordova with her things? Ayaw magpatulong kay Juke eh."

Of course, I heard it right. Nahulog kasi ni Professor Cordova 'yung box at natapon lahat ng laman sa ground.

"No problem, Ma'am Navaeh," I smiled in response.

Naiwan kaming dalawa ngayon at bago yumuko si Professor Cordova para pulutin ang mga librong natapon mula sa box ay tinawag ko agad ang atensyon niya.

"Miss Veneracion, I don't need help, you can go to your class," saad nito na nagpailing sa akin.

"Wala na akong klase, ma'am," iniabot ko sa kanya 'yung container ng stick-o ko, kunot-noo niya 'yong tiningnan saka lumipat ang mata niya sa muka ko.

"Can you hold it for me, ma'am?"

My lips formed a smile nang walang malay niya iyong tinanggap. 'Yumuko ako pagkatapos at mabilis na isinalansan 'yung mga libro sa malaking box. Tumawa ako ng mahina dahil sa reaksyon niya when I carried the box, damn it's heavy but I don't mind. Paano niya nadala 'to kanina?

"Are you sure you don't have any classes at this time onwards?" Nang-aanalisa niyang tanong, hindi niya suot eyeglasses niya ngayon kaya medyo maaliwalas siyang tingnan.

Her thick eyeliners and black lipstick are still irritating me pero hindi na kasing intense ng pagkadisgusto ko noon.

But here it is, I'll say it now. Professor Cordova's face is like a beautiful scenery or a photograph. Someway, those black inks and thick eyeglasses are like photobombers. Unwanted things that are uninvited in the picture, practical jokes and just the thought of it on her face even irks me.

Those are some of my issues about her aside from her shitty fashion style.

"Bakante ko na, ma'am," I answered with a smile. I pursed my lips, "So..to where? Please let me know where to go and the exact directions to your heart.."

Napakagat ako sa labi ko kahit wala naman siyang reaksyon kasi natatawa ako.

"Wanna go to hell?" Mataray niyang sambit at bago pa niya ipatong 'yung container ng stick-o ko sa box ay umiwas ako agad.

"Buhatin mo 'yan ma'am para may ambag ka naman," I chuckled. "You can eat one if you want if you're hungry or bored."

"I'd rather not, thanks," her sensual eyes left me.
