"What were you saying again?" Mikha asked, smiling at her girlfriend, still holding her hand.

"I had a photoshoot with the band today for our next album. Guess what was our theme?" Jazz shared enthusiastically.

"What?" Mikha asked, looking intently at Jazz, wondering what is this all about. 

"Our theme is tropical, and it suddenly hits me about Asia, about HOME. I just thought that since we both have little work this coming summer, August, why not let's go back to your country for a holiday with Stacey." Jazz suggested.

"Yeah, we can do that, anyway, Stacey keeps on bothering me about going home. I will inform my family, so they can prepare the penthouse for us to stay. Will that be alright with you? Mikha shared, trying to hide the previous thought from Jazz.

"Really, Mikha!" Jazz was so happy that she moved her chair closer to Mikha and gave her a tight hug and kissed her cheeks. Jazz happiness was so radiant that it infected Mikha to smile too. They continued their dinner, and both had a fun conversation the rest of the afternoon.

Mikha spent the night at Jazz's apartment. They shared an intimate moment until Jazz fell asleep hugging Mikha. Mikha remains awake and caressing her girlfriend's right cheek, using the back of her finger, enough not to wake her up from slumber.

It was slightly bugging her the thought of going home and introducing Jazz to all of her friends and family. Not that she cares about what are they going to say, but more about what she feels. Being home reminds more of her memories with Aiah, the pain and happiness that she wanted to forget.

All those months that they became official, she is still uncertain about her feelings. Mikha's intention of agreeing to try a relationship with Jazz is to force herself to forget "her". She knows she is becoming unfair to Jazz, but she still wanted to like her. She has the qualities that anyone could ever have, but I guess you can't dictate who you will love. Mikha is fully aware that Jazz likes her more than a friend, and she wonders now if she can give what Jazz expects of her.

She removes the blanket hovering over their naked bodies. She gets up, to put on her dress and wrapped a robe hanging on the side. Mikha went out of the room to get her a drink, it might help her calm herself down. Unaware that Jazz was awake all throughout her reverie. Fully aware that something was bothering Mikha, and she knew who it was, but she did not want to entertain it yet. Not yet, and she went back to sleep.

IN THE STUDIO.......

Stacey visited Mikha at the studio to fetch her for their weekly dinner date. Stacey took something from her bag and handed it in to Mikha while they're sipping their margarita. "Are you sure about this, Mikha". Stacey was still reluctant about the idea while giving their flight tickets.

"Why do you ask, I guess it is about time for Jazz to come with me to the Philippines and introduce her to my family and friends"? Mikha shared adamantly.

"If you said so,". Stacey responded with uncertainty.

"Besides, we still have 2 weeks to catch up with the group and family before Jazz arrives there in the Philippines."  Mikha added.
