I drive home, belting out to a love song the radio's playing.
I fell in love with a beautiful girl
And she still takes my breath away
I fell in love in the morning sun
While the the hours slipped awaySometimes when I hear your name,
A smile creeps on my face
Every reason, I can't explain
It's never our of placeCause I love you
More than you think I do
And I love you
Now you don't want me toI go home, still smiling wide while humming. I spot Dani laying on the couch across the TV, watching. I come up behind her and I cover her eyes, she instantly guesses that it's me and laughs. I don't normally do these type of stuff unless I'm in such a great mood, Dani knows that and she's probably guessing now what's the cause of this. She looks at me, confused and I brace myself for the questions she's about to fire.
"Kuya, why such in a great mood?" she asks me, curiously.
"Ah, hindi. Happy lang ako na pinili ako ng Mitsubishi para maging ambassador nila" I reply, hey I'm not completely lying.
"Talaga? Congrats, Manong!" she congratulates me happily while getting up from the couch to hug me. I hug her back, after a second, she pulls away and her face looks confused.
"Teka lang, hindi ba bagong ambassador ng Mitsubishi si Mika? Yun ang alam ko eh" she said.
"Mm, Dani, dalawa ambassador ng Mitsubish. Partner ko si Mika" I explain. Dani's mouth drops then squeals and claps her hands at the same time.
"Uy, i-update mo nga yung mga "moves" mo, luma na eh. Baka aatrasan ka lang ni Mika" she teases.
"Huh? Ang galing kaya ng mga moves ko. Kaya nga daming may gusto saakin eh" I say to her, in an annoying tone. Yeah, I know that was really mayabang of me to say but eh, I just want to annoy Dani.
"Yabang mo naman" she said, turning back to the television to continue whatever she's watching. She's turn her attention away from me but she suddenly jumps up again.
"Wait, may nangyari ba pagkatapos ng meeting? Imposible happy na happy ka kasi nakita mo lang siya" she states.
"Mm, niyaya ko siya mag coffee pagkatapos" I say shyly, looking away from her. Dani squeals and claps her hands.
"Elaborate the details please!" she exclaims, waving her hand in the air.
"Nagkwentuhan kami, she's really funny. Ang ganda niya, grabe. Like wow" I pause for a while, then I start speaking again.
"I want to be close to her. I don't ever want to lose contact with her again. That's the last thing I would want" I say, worried about the thought.
"Then make sure you don't. I have a feeling you guys will form a very close relationship in the future anyway, it's most likely" Dani says, winking. Wink wonk.
"I can see it coming too" I reply. Turning my back to leave the room, I glance behind me, seeing Dani with her lips pursed and the corners of her mouth tugging up as if she knows a juicy secret.
I go to my room and plop to my bed. I get my phone and check my Instagram. Someone tagged me in a photo, hm.. I wonder what it is. I check it and I blink my eyes at the sight of the picture. It's a stolen picture of Mika and I during the coffee date awhile ago, she's laughing at something I said and I'm smiling wide, looking intently at her. I save the picture and stare at it for a while and I feel a smile creeping on my face. I go back to Instagram and check the Miefer tag. Hey, don't judge me, I'm just curious. The picture is everywhere. I check Twitter too and sure enough it's the first thing that pops out on my feed. My notifications are booming, everyone's freaking out about the picture. I'm amused at this.
@kieferravena15 @reyesmikaaa date? I think so!
@kieferravena15 @reyesmikaaa kinikilig ako sa inyo!
@kieferravena15 @reyesmikaaa step aside Kiefly, Miefer's in town
I smile whilst reading the tweets, knowing that I'll be seeing more of this in the future.

Mika
I close the door behind me and I turn my back, finding Ara with her eyes wide with excitement, she screams when she sees me. I cover my ears, signaling to her that she's too loud. She blushes at that.
"YE! SI KIEFER PALA YUNG KASAMA MO SA MITSUBISHI!" she shouts enthusiastically.
"Uh, yeah. Calma lang, Daks" I say in calm tone.
"WELL? May nangyari ba?she asks impatiently.
"Ah, he approached me after the meeting if it was possible for us to have coffee after" I say casually, I'm actually surprised how calm I said that even though butterflies are exploding in my stomach right now.
"Talaga? Kwento naman oh!" she begs.
"Masaya siya kausapin. Nakakatawa rin. Very supportive siya sa pamilya niya. Sweet lang. Basta Daks, wala naman masyado nangyari" I say. Right at that moment, Kim barges in the room, with her phone in her hand and she's waving it in the air.
"Mika! Nakita ko yung pic mo with Kiefer sa cafe. Sweet niyo tingnan. Bagay" she remarks. I look at her confused, I do not know what she's talking about.
"Di mo pa ba nakita? Here oh!" she says, handing her phone to me. I take it from her and Ara goes beside me to also see what Kim's talking about. We both see the picture, it's a picture of Kiefer and I at the cafe and I look so happy, same goes to Kiefer because he's staring at me as he smiles. Ara puts her hand over her mouth in awe.
"Wala daw nangyari!" she accuses, pointing her finger at me.
"Ye! Look at how happy you guys look together!" Kim says, dreamily. I blush and smile.
"Daaaaks" Ara whines.
"Maiinlove ka talaga" she confirms.
"Hala, nag usapan lang naman kami. Love na ka agad. Nagmamadali?" I ask, mocking her.
"Sabi ko maiinlove, meaning, di pa ngayon. In the future maybe" she says playfully, waggling her eyebrows at me.
I open my mouth to protest but think the better of it because I think it's bound to happen too.

Author's Note:
Okay, I actually finished this chapter a long time ago, a day after I published the last chapter probably. But it so happens that everything I wrote deleted, I promise you I saved it, I have no idea what happened but it just disappeared. Really sorry it takes a century for me to update now, still busy with my studies except its more intense now because it's project week for us and I recently joined a sport so yay. Anyways, I died a little these past few weeks because there's literally no Miefer updates whatsoever, no interactions, dedication tweets, etc. None of that. BUT THANKFULLY, they were together yesterday, I think they had a haircut together. WOOO, they're still alive! Okay so, please add this book to your library, votes and comments are very appreciated! Comment what you want to happen in the next chapter and I'll gladly take it to consideration.
PS THANK YOU ALL FOR 4.6k READS! LOVE YOU GUYS XXXXXX
