Jero really took care of me, and I looked at him like my new best friend, just like Ammy. Sometimes I tell him about feminine things… strangely he can answer. Chuck… he's cute.
He is also the one who offered to get me checked out, afraid that my prejudice would happen.
"If someone asks, just say it's my son… it will also make our status easier."
"But Brad will know it's his son, he knows I was a virgin."
Hearing this, Jero glared. "You were a virgin? I found out in my database...that you are a widow, the widow her husband left at night…"
I nodded, all the data is correct…" on her wedding night. You remember on our Wedding Night, he died..I was very virgin then. In fact we only kissed once in the morning… Brad knows I was a virgin… and he made me like this." I replied annoyed.
Jero is like a strange fish now, he opens his mouth and closes it silently…he just glares at him and closes his mouth.
"I don't know about that… we'll check it out after you work…"
"You're going to pick me up?" I asked doubtfully. Did he want to do such a troublesome thing, even when he is dating, Charlie didn't want to do it because he thought it is a hassle, and he is my future husband.
"Babe.. I will go to school with you, sitting in the same chair as all your students… until you come home. I will be you 24-7 bodyguard..remember." His answer is raising his eyebrows.
Looks cute and sexy, but I remember that he is gay.
"Hmm. Alright, thanks Jero..seems I can't you enough."
"So sweet…pip…pip.. let's go to school. Ah, it's so cute with little children echoing, and singing cheerful songs...isn't that really cute?"
"Yeah… very sweet, but still it's a small pay job… I only get paid 200$ a month, and a few deductions. I used to only receive 150$."
"Gosh, I have to demo to get your salary up. What's your principal's name?"
"Huh..Madam Gie. Why?"
"Age… status."
"56 years old? maybe? She's a widow."
"Ah…perfect. You will earn 400$ a month starting this month…trust me. I got magic in my face." He said he is super confident. He took me in his arms and wrapped his arms around me as usual. We went down through the elevator ..and after the lift opened, he is closer to me and several times kissed my cheek and ear. I'm guessing... that Brad's around here.
Jero drove me..and really got off. I entered the school complex and of course met Madam Gie. She asked where I had been for the past few days, did not enter and did not allow me.
"Ah… Madam… pardon my friend… she's a little clumsy…." Jero joked, I am shocked, he said I'm his 'friend?' and then the next move shocked me.
Jero stepped forward and kissed the back of Madam Gie's hand. Instantly her angry expression turned red. Very blushing.
"Ah..how sweet...there is no young man like you...Don't call me madam, for you I'm Giovanny." Madam Gie said with a giggle. I'm in shock…is this really what's going on, the fierce and resolute headmaster giggled, after Jero kissed her hand? Wonderful!
"So Gie, my darling…can we sit down first? I think teaching hours are still half an hour away.. I purposely drove her and will monitor her all day, for my education research lately.. I want to know how she teaches…" For a split second Jero looked at me with a probing look.
What the…
Why is he like that?
"Ah..you're right! The young teachers today are a little less dedicated… less passionate about themselves as printers of the next generation…they lack enthusiasm." Said Madam Gie.
'Yea Right…and I'm being paid below the minimum wage!' I thought angrily. I ended up sitting in my chair, drawing up a lesson plan, it should have been the day's work before… since I wasn't in… I had to change my lesson plan, and find a way to catch up with my students. I sat at my desk, and Jero is in front of Madam Gie's table, they are having a nice chat.
I'm not jealous..no.no, not at all! No.. but seeing them talk like that I feel…annoyed?
"So how much does she get paid? Ah.. I see.. I think she would be better off if she is paid above the minimum salary.. you know, in the end she hesitated with you.. Darling… believe me, they are young people who should be treated like that.. for her to be shy.. would be better if you scare them…yes…yes…that's right my darling."
I just listened for a moment to Jero's rambling. Hopefully this will bear goodness to me.
I got a raise.
"Ah..really? This institution is so unfortunate…so how much is your net per year? Ah I see…I think..you can pay them more than that…then set a target so that they make students feel more comfortable here…that way your good name will make more students enroll in the following year. Ah yes… right… brilliant!"
Jero then sat in front of me and smiled meaningfully. "You must say thanks to me later."
"Hmmm." I muttered.
Then he wrote down my piece of paper.
"You will be paid more than 500$ a month, starting this month..say thanks to Jero the handsome number one guy." The contents of the text. To be honest, my eyes felt like they are going to pop out of the socket. 500$? How could that be? Does Madam Gie have more income than that?
Ah..let it be when we are alone at the hotel.
Riiing.
The bell rang, and the sign for school rang, I walked into my classroom and started teaching. Nothing strange.. there is only a gigantic student figure with a handsome face and white teeth smiling broadly at me at the end of the mini chair. Jero occupied the seat of my absent student! Just be careful if it breaks!
When school ended, I am still filling out reports and making lesson plans. Jero is still having fun chatting with Madam Gie, even in one day he managed to meet all the female teachers in this school..he's become a trend! Artist! The idols..everyone sat around him… until Madam Gie got jealous and threw them all out… told them to work on reports. In the end, Jero only spoke to the principal.
After school, Jero took me to the doctor..to check my womb, even if there is a baby in my tummy.. I don't want to keep it..this is Brad's child..the earlier I know it the better..I have to get it out quickly. That's the worst thought in my head right now. I checked and the results are very satisfying. I'm negative. Not pregnant. I'm grateful.
Jero paid for everything and said goodbye.
"I.. I have to go to the toilet for a while… you just wait in the cafeteria, okay… there's a delicious burrito it seems. Order it for me too." I did as he asked… I queued up to buy the burrito which he said is delicious.
Still queuing…but suddenly someone pulled my hand back…I Was pulled and stopped at one end of the hallway..and when I could see who did it I almost screamed.
Brad! That jerk!
"What do you want?!" I screamed, but he silenced me with a punishing kiss.
