Have You Ever

Chapter 26 - Secret

Mikha's POV

I stretched my arms on the opposite side of the bed, kinapa ko si Aiah and I was not able to feel her. Nagising ako bigla at hinanap siya.

"Love where are you? Nasa bathroom kaba? Breakfast na tayo. No one answered, binuksan ko ang banyo at wala dun si Aiah. She's gone, iniwan niya na ako.

I sat on the bed, why did she leave me hanging? Was that really a typical one night stand?
I heard someone knocking on the door.

"Mikhs andyan kaba? Breakfast na tayo pambihira gutom na gutom na ako. Stacey is shouting outside the door.

"I'm here, kakagising ko lang. Susunod lang ako, I'll be there in 10 minutes. Binilisan ko nalang ang pagkilos, I brushed my teeth and washed my face.

Time skip!!

We're having a buffet breakfast in the dining hall, the food looks delicious. I got my coffee, bread and butter then my cereal.

"Di kana namin nakita kagabi sa may dagat Mikhs, I tried to get in sa room natin naka locked na at ikaw lang may hawak ng key card natin. Nakipag sisiksikan tuloy ako kina Gwen at Maloi!!

"I'm sorry Staks sumama kasi pakiramdam ko di ko namalayan naka lock na pala yung pinto"!! Shit those were just lies how can I tell her na may dala akong babae sa loob ng room namin.

"You looked so tired Mikhs? Parang naubos lakas mo kagabi you didn't even drink that much at di ka naman sumayaw ah!! Isa pa tong si Maloi alam ko ang takbo ng utak ng mga kaibigan ko they want me to spill the tea.

"Sumama talaga pakiramdam ko kaya nauna na akong umakyat! They went to get their food na at naiwan na kami ni Gwen sa table.

"I saw her going out sa room niyo ni Staks early in the morning Mikhs. I looked at Gwen and I know di ko na maitatanggi pa, bakit ba kasi nauso yung witness.

"Yes I was with a girl last night, a random girl. Naalala mo yun nung nakaraan na may bumangga sakin at natapunan ako ng pancit? That girl.

I'm glad Gwen did not ask me anything else and she's the one who saw Aiah going out of my room kasi kung isa pa sa kanila ni Maloi at Stacey, they won't stop until they get some information. She was silent eating her food. Kumain narin ako, walang kumibo saming dalawa.

"Gwen, can we just please keep this a secret sa mga kaibigan natin! I'm not ready to share anything pa sa kanila kilala mo naman sila, they will just pester me with it".

"Naintindihan kita Mikhs, was she just like the other girls? Napatigil ako bigla sa kinakain ko, I was not expecting Gwen to ask me that.

"Mukhang seryoso yata yung topic niyo ah? Meron ba kaming di nalalaman ni Stacey?

"Napag usapan lang namin ang gallery at coffee shop natin. I told Mikha it's been a year since we did not see her make another piece of art sa gallery niya!!

Since the incident, I can't seem to think of another concept. Nawala na ang inspirasyon ko, Sam was my world siya ang dahilan sa mga artworks ko. Sam is my piece of Art.

"C'mon Gwen don't pressure Mikhs for another master piece naghahanap lang yan ng inspirasyon. Diba Mikhs?

I did not know I was spacing out, Aiah's in my head again. Her face staring at me, her eye smile. Her smooth skin, soft lips and I can't forget how tasty she is.

"Hoy Mikha Lim gumising ka nga, you're spacing out!! Kanina kapa namin kinakausap!!

Hays Aiah I hate how the way you make me feel.
