Handsome subtitue teacher

"Did that handsome teacher says his name?" They all nodded. "Can I know what is his name?"
"Teacher H," they all retorted in unison.
"It's Hunter, Mommy." Brian shriek from the back making everyone gasp and look in Brian's direction, even Adrian.
"You have Mommy?"
"I thought you don't have Mommy." They ask and the classroom is filled with their noise, Brian stays quiet.
"Children, I am Brian's Mommy..." I just can't tell I am just his cousin's girlfriend, because he lost his mother. What if they bullied Brian because I didn't introduce myself as his mother? He is leaning on me, I can't just let him down, his self-esteem will fall.
My shoulder falls. My body was drained but my mind seemed to keeps on working without getting tired. My mind flew about what did Brian said a while ago. Hunter is the handsome substitute teacher..?
Shane said she is taking care of my students but my student said Hunter is the substitute teacher that handles them while I am inactive. I look at Shane's table— she was busy checking her student's work. I look at the pen I was holding since I sat down in my chair but didn't write anything. I sighed and stand up to went to her. Everyone was still in their classroom, probably waiting for their student's guardian to pick their child.
"Shane, can I ask you something?" Her face fall pale as soon as my question blurted.
"Yes, you can." She continue what she was doing, maybe, trying to distract herself...
"Who handles my class? Is it you or Hunter?" She sighed and shook her head.
"Me and him. When he has to go to his company and you, I am the one who handles it but when he was free or has a little paper works to do, he handles the class and does his work after the class." I stand in there like a statue, my eye was looking at her and at her paper works. "You know what, Lexi— he is the gentleman and a hard-working guy I've ever seen. Come to think of it, he wakes up early in the morning to work on some paper works he hasn't done since last night then goes to the school to handle your class— he would go to you and help you and even do his work. Can you believe that?"
"He's like superman— but I think he asks for a day-off for three days...?" My mind shut down and all I could feel was guilt. I haven't done anything for him yet. We're still not married but he is making me feel so special but after looking back, I found myself standing here like a statue without giving anything to him.
"Hunter isn't looking for a material thing. You could just give him your love and he is happy. I think a guy is not fond of material things but some emotional and physical feeling? You know what I mean?" I stare at her, waiting for her to speak further. She looks up and stares at me too. "If they give you something, your reaction will be the best gift for them. Loving someone who loves you back will be brought you to cloud nine, right? You can only make him satisfied and happy."
I frown. I sat down across her. "You know I am busy so how can I spend time with him? He is also busy, our schedule doesn't match so it can make some of the problems... I can do another way to make him happy though,"
"Did he asks you something?"
"Nothing..."
"The nothing. Ayden is not demanding so maybe Hunter too."
I am so so drained and stress so I think of walking out than passing out in there. I strolled to the gate and see Hunter with Adrian and Brian waiting for someone besides the car. Their faces brighten up after seeing me.
"Mommy." I sat on my knees and waited for them to hug me. I giggles and after seeing them making me smile and like my problems vanished.
"What makes you go out late?" Hunter asks. I stand up and shook my head before letting a heavy sighed. He stares at me for a minute, examining my actions.
He nods after a minute of staring— maybe he knew what I am feeling right now. He opens the backseat door and we both took Adrian and Brian to their seat and I went to the passenger seat since they have their seatbelt and Hunter will drive slow because he doesn't want to drive fast when the two kids were sitting inside his car.
He stayed quiet while I keeps on looking back to see if the two kids are fine. I smiles and chuckled seeing them all knocked down. I didn't let them play that much but look, they are tired and sleeping. Hunter glance at the back, curious at why I am chuckling.
We both arrived at his house in Madrid Heights and all the memories of Mrs. Eleanor sink into my mind. I sighed and went inside. The other servant was still there, we ask for the head made to take care of Brian and Adrian and make healthy food when they wake up.
Hunter and I stayed at my house and we're now sitting here in the dining room, waiting for someone to talk. I am busy thinking about what Shane has said, so my presence and love will only make Hunter happy? Is that all? I am worried about Hunter's health since he had taken care of my class and even taking care of his company— and even taking care of his responsibility as my other half but all I could give him was nothing but worry.
About Shane's pregnancy, it's fine for me. They both are dating and love each other. I trust Ayden, he would never do such a thing even if he is drunk. I know his alcohol level, he has a high tolerance for alcohol and never got drunk easily. They both had done it when they get drunk. Maybe he really can't wait for her or they can't wait. Shane seems so happy.
"What is it?" My thoughts vanished as soon as I heard Hunter spoke. I took a sip of my tea and look at him, confused.
"You seemed bothered. What is it? You can share it with me." I stared at him, thinking if I should tell him. I sighed. "Is it because of—" He stops and looks at me warily?
I look at him for about a seconds before letting a heavy sighed. "Ayden and Shane..." I look down at the table. "They both had done it and Shane is pregnant." I smile but I think it's a fake.
"What about it?" He stands up and took a seat beside me. He put his hand on my back and start caressing it, calming me.
"I am happy for them but I can't let it out. It feels like I am hurting myself when I am laughing." I can feel the agonizing feeling is eating me. I feel so many emotions taking over me. "I wanted to sleep, let's talk about this tomorrow, can we?"
Hunter makes me sleep. It's still 11:30 but I am already sleeping but it's okay. I didn't get enough sleep last night and my body is hurting. My mind is also drained so I need to regain my energy.
I woke up, early in the middle of the night. It's 4 am. So I sleep half a day yesterday? My eyes widen after I had realize it. Everything is settled yesterday so I don't have to worry about my schedule yesterday. I went out of bed and feels a little sore in the middle part of mine. It's painting now but I can still go to the bathroom and do my morning routine. I think I should reschedule my nap time and when will I woke up.
"You have a tour this week, this Friday, Miss, and you also have a meeting today." Mr. Navarro called to remind me of my schedule. I told him I am getting ready and if he had any problem or the company, don't hesitate to call me. He said okay and I hung up the call.
I look at the clock and see it's already 6. I was about to went out the bed when the door open slowly and Hunter peeked at the door, checking if I am awake and fully went inside the room with a tray in his hand.
"You're already awake." I smiles and happily nodded. "You should have acted like you were sleeping, I miss waking you up and prepare your food and deliver it before you wake up."
"I had a long sleep and I woke up at 4 in the morning."
"What? Yet you never went downstairs?" He put the tray on the table near the chair in my room.
"I went downstairs but saw you sleeping on the table, I want to wake you up so you can have a nice sleep but I just remember you always sleeping at midnight so I didn't dare to wake you up. You maybe get up and worried about me." He only nodded after letting a heavy sighed.
I went to my mining living room and starts to eat. "I had to go to the office this 7,"
"It's still 6 and you had 1 hour so we can still cuddle." He suddenly hugs me while I am eating. I stop eating and hug him also. "You're well taught. You're so tough even when you're a girl. You've gone through a lot, you deserve anything."
"Yah! Why are you being so dramatic?" I hit his chest as he pulled away.
"Me? Dramatic? I am just proud of you. You are so so strong that giving up wasn't in your vocabulary."
"How did you know about my vocabulary?"
"I went to your mind when you are sleeping and went to your vocabulary and read it and memorize it." I hug myself, acting afraid.
"Yah! You're creepy, you know? How did you get inside my head when my head was just tiny and your body was like a big truck." I mentally laugh at my stupidity.
"Big truck? Yah! I am fit, you know what fit is?" he argues.
"Yes, and your body wasn't an example. It was an example of a big truck."
"It is because I am wearing an oversize shirt. Want me to take it off so you can see me—"
"Don't ever think of doing it." I point at him. He laughed and sat down from where he was sitting just a while ago.
"Seriously, Lia." He then turn into a serious face which made me sigh. "I know you were thinking and feeling so much but our wedding is getting nearer and nearer and I decided some of your gown and my suit and the theme of our wedding venue and the reception, all I need is your agreement." I nodded my head. "If you don't mind, I will ask your opinion now?" I nod my head and feel touched after hearing his words. He is a very understanding man and I am very proud to have him.
He stands up went outside for a minute, and came back with his laptop in his hand. "Here, I wanted to have a private ceremony, do you like it or do you want a public?" I frown and shook my head.
"I would never agree on marrying you in public." We chuckled.
"So I decided this theme when we decided to get married in a church, there are so many flowers in the aisle, and that's the design, the designer said, we can tell them if we want something to add on to the design." He swipe left and every shot was giving the highlight of the design and well pictured.
"And this is the second option, everything is pink, the flowers are pink, the carpet is pink. And of course, if we get this as our theme, your gown will be white, and my suit will be pink." I nodded my head, gazes still in the pictures.
"And here, this is the place I wanted our ceremony will take in. On the beach, so we can go on vacation and so our family would enjoy the reception and the special day of ours." I hug his bicep. "The curtain was white, of course, it's a wedding. But it is snowing..."
"I like this," I point to the picture. "I don't mind where we will get married, all I am thinking is you will get married to me, only me. And thinking about the theme, this one is perfect because it was already our special day, it will less special if you see everything was so so shining bright. Like, you know, we should spend money on our future kids."
"But yeah, it was our special day so, we should plan it and make it more look so beautiful but I vote on this one. I like beaches!" I squeak, trying to tamp the words I just said before. I am wrong in that sentence!
Hunter seemed to understand what I am doing and nodded, but I know he's a little disappointed. I sighed and begun to be disconcerted, this may cause our fight.
"Uhm, Hunter.." I called, warily.
"Hmm?" He is busy looking at the gown and suit.
"I'm sorry, I shouldn't have said that. It was our special day, so we have to pick the beautiful one and make it so special to match that day. I know what I said is wrong—" My words got stopped when I feel something attached to my lips. "It's okay, no need to say sorry, I know what you meant by that. It's okay." He kisses my forehead before smiling at me.
I hug him tightly, "You're very understanding... I am very lucky to have you."
"Are you pregnant or what?" I gasp and hit his hand.
"Let's continue picking the gowns."
My day went on, after picking some dress and the venue, I went to the company to finish my works. Unfortunately, I still have a lot of paper to work on. This upcoming Friday, like Mr. Navarro mentions, I have a tour— which means I had to leave this country. I force myself to finish it in one day but my time can't take it... I left my company and went to my house.
I will continue it tomorrow. I saw Hunter cooking something in the kitchen. I went to him back hug him. He flinches which makes me giggle. "Sorry, not sorry." I kiss his cheeks before pulling away from him.
"How's work?"
"Frustrating. I can't finish the paper works so I decided to finish it tomorrow and this upcoming Friday, I had to go out of the country to check the project we're making in Canada."
"That must be tough, here... I make the dinner for my lovely wife and so the two kids can also eat." I smile and I won't lie I feel my cheeks blush.
"I got a sweet, cheezy husband huh?" He chuckled. He pulled a chair and made me sit in there. He took my bag and went upstairs, to call for the kids— maybe.
"Mommy!" For a moment, I feel became deaf and my soul was about to leave my body. I get annoyed but let it pass, they are kids though.
"Hi! Good evening babies." I spread my arms to them. They went o me and hug me. I giggles at how they were so attached to me. I put Brian on the chair beside me while Hunter was about to put Adrian beside him but Adrian pouted and frown.
"Why? You don't want to sit with me?" Adrian shook his head.
"I wanted to seat with you but brother, I wanted to sit with Lia," he said. I chuckled. I stand up and pull a chair at the end of the table and make Adrian sit there.
"I am now getting jealous. Since Lia came, you're ditching me, huh? Seriously? Your brother? I would go with Brian then," Hunter sulks. He stomps his feet while making his way towards Brian.
"Just for today, Hunter," Brian said. Adrian and Brian laughed while I just smiles.
"That's enough. Hunter, go to your seat so we could eat." He sighed and sat in front of me. He still sat beside Adrian then why is he sulking? I chuckled and shook my head. "Who wants me to feed you? Brian or Adrian?" Adrian look at Brian that was already pointing at himself but not saying anything and just smiles. Adrian sighed and point to Brian.
"Okay, so Adrian is so kind. I will feed Brian tonight then tomorrow, I will feed Adrian— is that clear?" They both nodded but Adrian seems sad. I let a weak smile. "Adrian, I'll make it up to you, Teacher has something to do tomorrow but after the teacher got done with work, what do you want to do?"
"Can we walk to the park and eat ice cream like what we did before?" His eyes lit up a little.
"Yes, of course. Hunter also has to go to work so after going to the park. I am free at night so maybe we'll make food and go to my brother's office for dinner, is that okay?" They both giggles as I look at Hunter who is smiling ear-to-ear.
"Yes mommy, let's do it."
To be continued.
