Mikha's Pov
"Thanks for coming with me, Aiah," I said.
"Ako dapat magpasalamat, I had fun," Aiah replied.
We're now in front of her house—gabi na rin.
"Honestly, ngayon lang ulit ako nakapunta sa BGC," I said.
"Next time yayain kita ulit lumabas para makapag-enjoy ka din. Wag puro work, ha," Aiah said while smiling.
The door of their house opened. Nasa pintuan si Tita Cathy at Jho.
"Aiah, sakto pag-uwi niyo," Tita Cathy said.
"Mikhs, let's go inside," Jho said.
Hinila ako ni Jho papasok sa bahay. Nasa dining area si Kuya Bryan.
"It's good to see you, Mikhs," Jho said.
"Jho, parang hindi tayo nagkita kahapon sa restaurant ko ah. In English pa talaga," I teased.
"Ang galing ko kaya mag-English. By the way, nakita ni Mom yung car mo sa bintana. Dito ka na daw mag-dinner," Jho said, smiling.
Alam ko 'yang smile mo, Jho. Oo nga pala, sinabi ko kay Tita Cathy na next time magdi-dinner ako dito. Lumapit sa amin si Kuya Bryan.
"Good evening, Kuya Bryan," I greeted.
"Good evening too, Mikha. Glad you could stop by. Have dinner with us—we're having sushi," Bryan said.
Nasa dining area na kami. Nakaupo ako sa gitna nina Aiah at Jho. Sa harap namin si Kuya Bryan at Tita Cathy.
"Mikha, the last time I saw you was in Baguio," Bryan said.
"Naging busy lang din po ako ngayon sa pag-prepare ng new branch dito sa QC, Kuya. Malapit na ang grand opening," I said.
"That's great. Mag-dinner kami nila Tita Cathy next time sa restaurant mo," Bryan said.
"Their food is so delicious," Aiah added.
"Sama ako!" Jho chimed in.
"Bawal ka daw sumama, Jhoanna Robles," Aiah said.
"Bakit naman?" Jho asked.
"Gusto mo lang makita si Stacey," I said.
"Syempre, future girlfriend ko siya," Jho said proudly.
"Tita oh, ang anak mo," Aiah said with a laugh.
"Jho, anak, uso 'yung umamin muna bago angkinin si Stacey," Tita Cathy said.
"Ouch, galing pa sa mother ko," Jho said, pretending to be hurt.
"Gusto ko po pala kayong i-invite for dinner sa grand opening," I said.
"It's decided then—we'll soon have dinner at your restaurant," Bryan said.
Aiah put some sushi on my plate. I smiled at her, but deep inside, kinikilig ako.
"Aiah, nabalitaan ko na your boyfriend Gelo is now a head chef at one of our hotels," Bryan said.
"Ex-boyfriend," Aiah corrected.
"Ex? Kailan pa?" Bryan asked, surprised.
"Since last week. Nakipag-break na ako sa kanya," Aiah replied.
"Okay lang ba sayo na he works at our hotel?" Bryan asked again.
"Hayaan mo na lang siya, Kuya," Aiah said calmly.
"Mikha saved your sister from Gelo. Sasampalin na sana siya ni Aiah," Tita Cathy shared.
"Thank you so much, Mikha," Bryan said sincerely.
