I slammed the door behind me as I walked towards the kitchen in full annoyance.
"Babe, I'm sorry" I didn't notice na nandito na rin pala siya sa kusina. I glared at her nung balak nyang lapitan ako.
"Don't you dare take another step Mikha Lim or I swear.." pagbabanta ko sa kanya.
"Okaayy.. galit ka nga.. full name na eh." Pabiro nyang sabi na lalong kina-init ng dugo ko.
"You think this is funny?" Mataray kong tanong.
"Your feelings are valid but the situation seems a bit ridiculous to me." She slowly walks towards but I glared at her. Mukhang di naman umubra sa kanya yung titig ko kasi nagawa nya parin akong hawakan.
"You know you're cute when you're jealous." She playfully stated then grab my waist and pull me closer to her.
"I'm not jealous. Stop saying that I'm jealous because I'm not. Mas maganda naman ako kesa dun bakit ako magseselos." Tuloy tuloy kong sabi pero sya nakatingin lang sakin na parang amaze na amaze.
"Ok hindi ka nga nagseselos pero andaming beses mo yatang sinabi na hindi ka nagseselos. Are you trying to convince me or yourself?"
"Isa pa Mikha Lim makakatikim ka sakin, sinasabi ko sayo." I tried to pull away from her kasi grabeng pang-aasar nya pero mas malakas sya kesa sakin.
"Anong klaseng tikim ba yan?" Pabiro nyang tanong.
"Suntok Mikha Lim.. makakatikim ka ng suntok." Sabi ko hanggang sa magkaron ako ng lakas makalayo sa kanya.
Flashback
Mikha and I decided to go on a date since we're both busy with our profession and we barely spent time together. She's an architect and I'm a lawyer kaya talaga super busy kami.
We're on our way to the restaurant when Mikha's phone suddenly rang. She looked at me na parang walang gana. Pinakita nya sakin kung sino yung tumawag and it's her dad.
"Yes Dad?" Sabi nya pagsagot ng tawag. Hindi na ako nakinig sa conversation nila kasi I'm sure, about na naman to dun sa babaeng gustong gusto ng family nya para kay Mikha.
"No dad, I can't. I'm with Aiah and no, I won't cancel my plan with her." I can hear the frustration in her voice.
Although alam ng family ni Mikha na were in a relationship, pilit parin nilang i-arrange sya sa isa sa mga anak ng ka-business partner ng father nya.
"Alright. But I'm bringing Aiah and you can't do anything about it." She ended the call and tumingin sakin. She looks very disappointed.
"Sorry, cancel muna yung date natin. We have a business party na kailangan puntahan and I can't do anything to convince my dad."
"I understand. Buti na lang and fit for the event ang outfit natin." She took my hand and kiss the back of it. She looked at me lovingly that makes my heart flutter.
"Thanks for being understanding. I love you."
"I love you too."
********
"Mikha! You came! Sabi ko na nga ba di mo rin ako matitiis eh." Denise said then clung her arms to my girlfriend's arm.
Automatic na tumaas yung kilay ko dahil sa sobrang dikit nya kay Mikha.
Assuming na nga walang pang alam about personal space.
"I have no choice Denise and pwede ba.. lumayo ka sakin. I'm with my girlfriend so show some respect and decency." Mikha pull herself away from the asungot girl.
Nagdiwang naman ang puso at tenga ko dahil sa sinabi ng asawa este girlfriend ko. Grabe talaga sya. She never fails to make my heart go crazy.
Mikha looks cold and intimidating outside. She's nonchalant about everything but she's never lack to express her emotions and soft side nya sakin. I'm so lucky and honoured na sakin lang sya ganyan.
"Nandito ako para sunduin ka. Pinapasundo ka sakin ni dad mo." Mikha asked my permission if she can leave me and I said yes. Denise and her walked side by side and ewan ko ba sa Denise na yun at grabe kung mang-invade ng personal space.
I watched them habang kausap nila yung parents ni Mikha. I saw how happy they are talking to Denise.
I really wish na tanggapin din nila ako sa family nila but unfortunately, I'm not the right person para sa anak nila according to them.
I was alone the whole party. Hindi nila binitiwan si Mikha and I'm starting to get annoyed. I know naman na hindi sya makaalis pero sana man lang she check up on me. Kung okay pa ba ako? Or kung humihingi pa ako?
Dagdag pa sa inis ko itong babae na to na enjoy na enjoy ang paghawak at pagdikit sa girlfriend ko. Minsan tumingin din sya sakin na para bang nang-aasar.
Kuhang-kuha nya talaga ang inis ko!
Hindi na ako nakapagpigil so I decided na lumabas and dumeretso sa parking lot to find Mikha's car.
"Aiah wait!" I heard Mikha calling me but I didn't stop from walking. Tumigil ako sa gilid ng sasakyan niya and ask for her key.
"Uuwi na ako. Mukhang nag-eenjoy ka sa party na yan pati dyan sa babae mo."
"Baby, I'm sorry.." I can hear the sincerity in her voice pero hindi ako nagpatibag agad. Hindi dapat tayo marupok.
"Give me your key Mikha." I insist.
"Let's go home. I'll drive. Screw this party. I can't let my queen go home without her knight." I know she's trying to lighten up my mood pero strong girl muna ako ngayon.
I pretend na hindi ko sya narinig or hindi ko nagustuhan yung sinabi nya pero deep inside, nagwawala na yung mga lamang loob ko sa kilig.
End of flashback
"Baby.. you know ikaw lang yung babaeng nakikita ng puso ko." Panunuyo nya.
"Ang corny mo." Sagot ko.
"Pero kinikilig ka na nyan? Sorry na kasi. Tsaka I need your yakap, your kiss kasi namiss kita ng sobra." She hugged me from behind and slowly move her feet dahilan para magsway kami na para bang nagsasayaw.
"Bati na tayo please.. I love you and it will always be like that. I don't care what my family thinks. I choose you over them, over anything. I love you Maraiah Queen Arceta."
I turn around and give her peck on her lips. "I love you too Mikhaela Janna Jimenea Lim"
Wala eh, marupok ako pagdating sayo Mikha Lim!
