All Chapters of The Professor : Chapter 71 - Chapter 80

The engine died and they were submerged in darkness once more. Her eyes were glued on the small apartment ahead, the entire area was empty and she didn't know if her friends were back home already. "This is me." She whispered, turning to face him. Although his face was hidden in the shadows, she could still make out the faint outline of his nose, eyes and lips. He shifted on the leather seat and helped her unbuckle the seatbelt strapped to her front, "Goodnight, foxy." He was close now, close enough for her to feel his cool breath fanning her face,"Good night." She repeated slowly. Her eyes glued on his plump lips.Their time at the park, although short-lived, was a memory she'd never forget. Maya couldn't remember the last time she had fun like that. Alex was a different person too, he teased and flirted with her. He said things that made the butterflies in her tummy rage wild and then they danced.It was an incredibly silly thing for him to do but he initiated it anyway. He made

After lunch with Jason, Maya retired back home earlier than she'd planned. No one was in so she had the whole space to herself, when she called Gab, her friend told her that she was on her shift already and Jason had a frat thing he had to get to. After taking a quick shower, she edited some of her videos and photos before uploading them. She'd face timed her parents and they talked for a long time with her mom promising to drop by since she was heading in that direction for work. She made a quick dinner and then returned to her bed where she picked up her anatomy textbook. She didn't have another exam until next week but it wouldn't hurt to read, or rather re-read in her case. She had her reading glasses on, her face propped by both her palms. The dim light of the room provided an eerie atmosphere, the only bright illumination was the reading lamp hung overhead. Maya wiggled her legs in the air before rubbing her socked feet together, she had chosen her favourite pair of mismatched

"Yes."He turned away from her, his back facing her agonized face. The first tear rolled down her face, shaky gasps escaped her parted lips as she fought to keep her emotions in check. She itched to reach out to him, to touch him. But he didn't spare her a glance so she squared her shoulders and swivelled around.She shrugged on her sundress ignoring its wet state, she gave him one last look before rushing out the door. Her heavy footsteps padded on the ground, leaving wet trails as she walked. Maya slipped into the elevator, relieved that she was the only occupant. Her trembling fingers managed to press the ground button before clutching the straps of her bag tightly. Once the doors closed shut, she allowed herself to fall to the ground, her chest racked painfully and she heaved for breath,Maya sobbed until she felt like she couldn't breathe anymore, her vision was obscured by glittering tears and her entire frame shook. If she closed her eyes, she could still vividly see the emotio

Maya gaped dumbfounded at the door, unable to move from her spot. She didn't know what to do at that moment, Then it hit her! Alex!He would surely have a solution for this. Just as she scrambled to her feet, the door leading to his room flung open and a shirtless Alex walked out. His eyes still looked bleary and his hair was flying all over,"Maya?" He looked surprised to see her but the expression quickly turned into concern when he saw her wide-eyed state, "Shit! What happened?" He rushed towards her, cupping her face,She silently lifted her phone, positioning the screen in his direction. She watched as his eyes grew dark and his lips turned down slightly.He threw a wary glance at the door before releasing her. Maya grabbed his arm when she noticed that he was heading for the door and gently shook her head,"What if it's them?" He smiled reassuringly and pried her fingers off his arm before heading towards the door. She watched with bated breath as he gazed into the peephole be

"Thank you!"She gracefully accepted the large plate of pork ribs and placed it on top of the table. Her mother made a moaning sound as she sniffed the air and Maya rolled her eyes at the childishness. "What!" Her mother flared defensively, "This smells good." She rubbed her palms together and licked her lips.Maya found the whole situation hilarious especially how last year, her mother was adamant about never eating pork because she grew up on a pig ranch and considered them her family. And now,She shook her head in amusement, unable to hide her smile. Ever since Derek showed up yesterday, her mother kept bugging her about him. Asking if he was he was her future son-in-law and complaining about how skinny he looked. Maya had told her like a billion times that they were just friends but her mother didn't buy it.According to her, friends didn't hug each other. Maya shrugged her off, deciding to take her out to dinner since it had been a long time since they had some girl's time. T
