A Lyceum of the Philippines University professor has been accused of sexually harassing his student, who missed an important exam with the earlier.
posted on Facebook a story Thursday, March 30 about her experience with the professor who allegedly drove to Sogo Hotel instead of their school.
Mariechelle narrated that they agreed to meet at a restaurant along Matalino St. in Diliman, Quezon City to take the exam since her professor told her that he could not go to the school anymore due to another meeting and that his law office is only a little distant from the said restaurant.
To her surprise, the professor offered her to eat even if she refused to eat since she was not yet hungry. She was then told to take the exam in the school instead and was offered to ride with him. At first she refused, but eventually went with the professor thinking of less hassle and scorching heat of the sun if commuting. While they were inside the vehicle, the student narrated the following non-verbatim.
H: Ano bang palayaw mo?
M: Machi po.
H: Machi nalang tatawag ko sayo. Oh ano bang plano mo? Gusto mo mag exam?
M: Opo sir, sayang naman kasi yung ireretake ko pa, eh eto lang naman po yung namiss ko.
H: Nako, mahihirapan ka sa exam, at babagsak ka.
M: Bakit naman po? Nagbasa basa naman ako kanina ng konti.
H: 1-70 items yun. Puro essay. Memory work.
M: Grabe naman yun sir. Dalian nyo naman po ng konti.
H: Eh pano nga? Wag ka na mag exam?
M: Kung pwede lang po eh kaso baka babagsak ako nakapagexam. Mag eexam po ako sir, itatry ko po.
H: Nako, babagsak ka talaga. Tell me what you want. Give me some proposal para mapagusapan natin. Lets vault in.
M: (Tahimik na ako kasi kinakabahan na ako, parang alam ko na yung gusto nya mangyari.)
H: Oh pano balak mo? Gusto mo wag ka na mag exam, mag date nalang tayo. Kasi pag nag exam ka, babagsak ka at ibabagsak kita.
M: La, date talaga sir? Pangit naman non.
H: (di na sya sumagot)
M: (nagcellphone na ako at tinext ko boyfriend ko kasi kinakabahan na ako.)
H: San gusto mo kumain?
M: wag na sir, derecho nalang po tayo sa school kasi baka di ko na po maabutan ojt expo.
H: Kain muna tayo, o gusto mo dun nalang sa taas kumain. Order tayo.
M: Saang taas sir?
H: (di na sumagot, sabay kinanan yung kotse sa basement parking ng SOGO Banawe. Buti may kotse sa harap namin na di umaabante kaya nasa bungad pa kami)
M: (sobrang kaba na ko kaya nagpatawag ako sa bf ko, sabi ko sabihin nya sakin naaksidente kunwari mami ko. Kasi hindi ko talaga alam kung pano ako makakababa sa sasakyan. Ayoko din naman magsalita ng di maganda kasi baka magalit sya at kung ano pang gawin sakin, lalo akong mapapahamak kaya kalma lang ako kahit nanlalamig na ako sa kaba.) Sir, naaksidente daw po yung mami ko, kailangan ko pong umuwi na. Bababa na po ako.
H: hala. Saang hospital? Ihahatid na kita. (sabay atras ng kotse)
M: wag na sir. Magpunta na po kayo sa lyceum. Kaya ko na po.
H: hinda, ihahatid na kita sa may fishermall.
M: (naiiyak na sa sobrang takot)
H: tingnan mo muna kalagayan ng mommy mo, tapos text mo nalang ulit ako kung kelan ka pwede para maiencode ko na din yung grade mo.
M: sge sir. Bababa na po ako.
