Suddenly, Vega called Alberto’s name loudly. Alberto was taken aback and surprised.
“Yes, Professor.”
“Are you daydreaming, Alberto?” Vega bowed her head and gave Alberto a sharp look because she was annoyed by Alberto’s lack of attention to her while she was teaching in class. Vega had tried to show her best abilities, but Alberto didn’t even care about her presentation until he didn’t hear when he was called.
“No, I’m not.” Alberto lied.
“Then, why are you surprised?” Vega became enraged and yelled angrily.
“I’m shocked by your attitude in this class.” Alberto expressed his surprise.
“I’m also shocked and surprised by your attitude, Alberto. I’m sad because you don’t pay attention to me. I’ve tried my best to teach in this class, but no one pays attention to me, including you, Alberto!” Vega expressed her sadness.
“I paid attention to you!” Alberto lied again.
“Okay.” Vega rolled her eyes.
“So, what’s the answer for this question?” Vega pointed to the question on the board. Alberto immediately whispered to Dario, “Dar, please give me the answer! As I know, she doesn’t teach us about this.”
“I’m sorry, Alberto! I don’t have any answers either. Your words are true. She doesn’t teach us about this,” said Dario.
“So, why does she ask about this?” Alberto was confused. If Dario’s words were true, why did Vega ask him?
“I don’t know. Why do you ask me? Why don’t you ask her?” Dario shrugged because he didn’t know Professor Vega’s reason.
“Oh my god! What’s the answer? What should I say?” Alberto panickedly said to himself.
Alberto tried to relax by reading the question on the blackboard again.
A moment later, he remembered that Vega had told Alberto about it. Alberto tried to remember until he remembered the material. Alberto immediately answered loudly, “Central nervous system.”
“Yes, that’s true. But that doesn’t prove that you paid attention to my lecture earlier,” said Vega.
“But, Professor, Dario didn’t give me any answers,” Alberto complained.
“But you spoke to Dario for an answer. You can lie to me and say that you’re not given an answer by Dario. It’s possible that Dario gives you an answer.” Vega said curtly.
Alberto’s face turned pale because he was shocked by Vega’s words. Like it or not, Alberto had to obey her orders.
“Oh my god! Why does she even want to ask me another question now?” Alberto immediately rolled his eyes because he was very lazy.
Not long after, the slides changed. The slide showed a diagram of the nervous system. Alberto’s eyes immediately bulged when he saw the diagram. As Alberto recalled, he had never seen the diagram before.
“Okay. Please, help me explain this diagram to your friends!” Vega’s orders made Alberto’s heart beat faster.
His face was pale. He was very panicked. He could only pray and hope that God would help him. After that, he exhaled and tried to calm himself down.
He looked at the chart again. Not long after, he felt that he had seen the diagram before, but he had forgotten where he had seen the chart. He tried to calm himself down until he remembered that Vega had taught Alberto about this before because Alberto’s dream was to become a doctor.
He really wanted to go to medical school, but unfortunately, he didn’t have much money. Alberto immediately explained the chart as best he could. After Alberto explained, Vega immediately smiled. Vega was happy because Alberto still remembered the material she taught him before, which means Alberto still remembers their moments together and she is still in his memory.
“I think he still loves me. If he no longer loves me, why does he remember the times I was with him? Of course, he would have forgotten about those moments if he had been able to move on from me to Lorena. He is a person who easily to forget, and not everything he can remember well,” said Vega in her heart.
“That’s a good point for me. I’m one step ahead of Lorena. After all, who loves that ugly woman? I don’t think Albert loves her. She is only a woman who tries hard to win Alberto’s heart,” said Vega again in her heart.
“Okay. Good! Your memory is still strong! I am praising your intelligence and memory, Alberto!” Vega’s compliment made Dario frown and glare at Alberto sharply.
Dario was confused by the memory that Professor Vega meant. For Dario, Professor Vega’s words were very strange.
“I believe you pay attention to me. Thank you for paying attention to me, Alberto!”
“You’re welcome, Prof.”
Then, Alberto exhaled heavily as he felt relieved. He was able to explain well. So, he didn’t get any punishment from Vega.
“Memory? What’s your most vivid memory? I’m very confused with Professor Vega’s words.” Dario whispered.
“Who knows! I don’t know either.”Alberto shrugged and lowered his shoulders.
“I’m also confused! The important thing is I don’t get any more punishment from her.” Alberto whispered.
Inadvertently, Dario and Alberto’s words were heard by Vega. This made Vega look at them. “Which memory are you confused about?”
Alberto and Dario’s eyes immediately bulged as they felt extremely shocked. They both looked at each other, puzzled. Alberto immediately frowned. Their expressions were so indicative of their feelings that Vega was able to understand what they were thinking and feeling.
“Alberto, please meet me after this class!” Vega ordered before she resumed teaching again.
Alberto immediately bent his face. Alberto’s face turned red. He looked at Dario with a sharp gaze.
“Ah! It’s because of you, Dario. So, I must meet Professor Vega after class.”
Dario immediately laughed out loud at Alberto’s expression. “Yeah, it’s okay! It’s great to meet your ex! Maybe, you will date with her again.”
“No way! Ex is ex. I’ll never be her boyfriend again!” Alberto again later.
“We’ll see later! Can you resist her irresistible charms, wild passions, and tantalizing sensual temptations?” challenged Dario because he was very sure that Alberto would be Professor Vega’s boyfriend again.
“Yeah, we’ll see!” Alberto accepted Dario’s challenge.
“I think it’s you who will fall in love with Professor Vega,” sneered Alberto.
“It’s you, Alberto. Not me!” Dario taunted.
“By the way, I wanna ask all of you here, who is the person in charge of this class?” Prof. Vega changed the subject.
“Clarinda, Professor.” The students answered.
“If I want Alberto to be the person in charge of this class, can I?” Vega wanted Alberto to be the person in charge of her class on her subject.
