I Kissed My Professor And He Liked It

Chapter 236

Lila’s POV

“Shouldn’t you be writing your speech for the election? It’s only tomorrow,” Rachel asked, staring down at me with narrowed eyes.

I sat, cross-legged, on the couch in the student lounge with my sketchpad on my lap and I peered up at her with a frown.

“I’m designing the border for the mural the art class is creating,” I told her.

“Your speech is important Lila, and you haven’t thought anything about it,” she said, folding her arms across her chest. “I thought you wanted to be the president of the student committee.”

“I do!” I exclaimed. “Of course, I want it. I created the committee.”

“Then why aren’t you acting like you want it?” She asked, sitting down beside me. “Sarah has been bragging to everybody that her speech will wipe you out.”

“If the students want Sarah as their president, then there’s not much I can do,” I said shrugging as I looked back down at my sketchpad.

I was proud of the work I was doing for this border.

“You could try to win,” Rachel muttered. “She would destroy the committee if she won.”

,

I sighed and looked at her.

“I know you are worried, Rachel. But I’m telling you, you don’t have to be. I can’t really explain it, but I have this weird feeling that everything is going to work out the way it should. Don’t worry too much.”

“So, what are you going to say at the debate tomorrow without a speech?”

“I’ll figure it out,” I told her with a reassuring smile. “In the meantime, I need to finish this border.”

She sighed but she didn’t say anything else. She took out her textbook and started to study for her upcoming exam.

“Lila!!”

I looked up to see that girl in my history class running toward me. I tutored her with a couple of others in the library yesterday. She looked extremely eager, and, in her hands, she held a piece of paper that I couldn’t see properly because she was waving around in the air.

á

“Hey,” I said, giving her a fond smile.

“I got an A on my exam!” She shrieked, excitement radiating her face and lighting up her features.

I nearly jumped to my feet; instead, I put my sketchpad down and clapped my hands happily.

“Oh, my goddess,” I breathed, staring up at her with large and happy eyes. “I’m so happy for you! Congrats!”

“I couldn’t have done it without you,” she said with a grin. “Thank you so much for spending time tutoring me yesterday.”

Before I could say anything more, the door of the student lounge burst open, and in came the other two that I had tutored as well.
