Arkin
“Mr. Santos!”
It took all of my courage to smile and regard the person standing in front of me.
“Oh, come on, Arkin! You’re too formal. You can just call me Van. It’s not like we don’t know each other.”
I forced a smile at my fellow faculty member who I tried so much to avoid every chance I got.
“You’re late today, right? It’s actually the first time if I’m not mistaken.”
Of course it’s not.
Only, my previous tardiness were all because of other work related stuff as oppose to today.
“I just had to finish some things. That’s all.”
I said and made a move to walk away when Vance spoke again.
“I heard you have a visitor living with you at the moment. Was that him, in the car? What did your parents say about you finally bringing home a boyfriend?
