For the Record: The Nth Time

"It's been a year?" She doubted, "How?... Why?" She have many questions in her mind she desperately wants to find out but before she even realize half of them, she's starting all over again, "It's been a year?" again she doubted, "How?... Why?" She scratched her head out of confusion. She tried to grab everything she could but she can only keep few every morning. "It's been more than two decades... Since this thing happened to me..." He trembly said to himself out of frustration. "How could people be like this overnight?" He questioned with full annoyance, *I've been working hard and yet... And yet this still happens.* He thought as his blood become a raging ocean during storm while seemingly calm on the outside as he stares at her on a distance. *I'm trying to make you realize it over and over but it seems like you never paid attention.* To the one who wish he is being remembered... How long does he have to wait? To the one who wish she remembers... How long will it take her to recognize everything?... Everyone?...

"I think there is a huge misund-" the professor tried to explain but before the "-erstanding" left her mouth, professor A halted her.

"Shut up!" she exclaimed, "What misunderstanding could there be? Huh?!" This time her voice is getting rough and more unfriendly. "I'm rather surprised that you would just handed your phone just like that." Professor A started opening Ms. Professor's phone and mocks her this time.

To her shock, Ms. Professor's phone has no password nor pattern to unlock which caused annoyance to her all the more, *this woman* she grinds her teeth, "Did you just deleted your conversation with my boyfriend?!" Professor A accused. "You're really that good at cleaning traces, huh?"

"I believe, as far as I could remember, I haven't deleted any messages, all that is in there are the only ones you can see, nothing more, nothing less." Ms. Professor calmly defends, "If I ever did that, I would have deleted also my call history, right?" She added.

With disbelief, professor A immediately open the 'Call history' tab and found her boyfriend's phone number that contacted her only once, which was also the date she finally caught him, "Liar! You think you'll make others believe you're innocent just by saying that?!"

"Please lower your voice, the students outside are starting to be suspicious." Ms. Professor tried to calm her down but it's futile. Telling professor A what to do irritated the other party all the more.

"HOW DARE YOU TELL ME TO LOWER MY VOICE!!!" Professor A's voice resounded up to the third room next to the faculty. "WHY?! AFRAID EVERYONE WILL KNOW?!" Screaming like this with her eyes both almost like popping out and breathing heavily makes her looks scarier.

"Is there anyone in this room who can give me an explanation of this commotion?!" The voice was not loud but made everyone inside the faculty gaze their heads to the direction where the door post is with fear and surprise.

And there, is an old man groomed professionally holding a cane. He looks weak but he gives a strong aura that can overpower anyone in the room.

Recognizing who is that old man and realizing what just happened, professor A begins to panic, *Gasps, this woman, did she remained silent as possible knowing this will happen?* She covered her mouth out of agony, "President, I... I can explain e-everything!" She stuttered.

"Based on the behavior of everyone, I can already tell what is going on. Everyone involved in this will see me this afternoon. But if you insist, can you tell me who is this being unprofessional creating a negative example to the students?" The President then shoot a smile on professor A.

*Unprofessional? Did he just say I'm unprofessional?* The face of professor A burned out of embarassment and froze at the moment, giving the president of the university of no response.

"Hm? Well, save your words for later then, I'll just continue to do my business here, professor Ramiscal, have you already discussed the dissertation I handed over to you with Professor Guillermo?"

"Yes, Mr. President, we already discussed it the other day and he can proceed to the next step but..." Since professor Guillermo is Professor A's boyfriend, instead of discussing it to Professor G., she just think of another way to remove herself from this picture, "He can proceed to the next step but there's a part that only you, our president can evaluate."

"Is that so? Okay." The President agreed. "Professor Guil. send me your files tomorrow, let's not bother professor Ramiscal anymore, I believe 'SHE ALREADY HAS TOO MUCH ON HER PLATE'." He emphasized and gave professor A a seemingly professional but sharp look before he turned and leave.
