Mikha's POV

It's 4pm and I need to leave the gallery now, I asked Stacey to take care of it until closing time. Dadaan muna ako sa isang flower shop at last stop na sa coffee shop namin.

I bought a bouquet of white roses and drove straight to our coffee shop!!

"Ayy wow maypa flowers, may okasyon yata Mikhs? I just smiled at her alam ko nakiki tsismis lang to.

"Is Gwen busy? I need your help guys. What's the perfect cake here for peace offering? Daliii!!

"Ano na naman ginawa mo this time Mikha Lim? Perfect timing, I made a Tiramisu cake. Para kanino ba?

"Remember the girl in IAO? Gwen was stunned and smiled at me. "Good luck Mikhs!!

"Ano ba yan? Ako lang yata walang alam dito ah. You're so unfair.

"Sige na guys, next time na ang chika ma lalate na ako. I owe you big time. Bye!!

I drove off to the address that Colet sent me, kinakabahan ako at the same time happy since I'll be seeing Aiah again. I checked her stuff at the back seat pati narin yung mga regalo ko.

I'm deeply in thoughts right now, what would I say to her?

Time Skip!!

I arrived on time sa office nila. I texted Colet that I'm outside the building waiting for them. She told me to go inside and wait at the couch since they're about to go out na.
Di ko alam kong pinagpapawisan ako dahil mainit o dahil sa kaba.

Aiah's POV

Colet told me that she's outside waiting for us. Kinakabahan na ako kasama ko ngayon silang dalawa ni Sheena.
Malayo palang kilalang kilala ko na ang naka upo sa may lobby. Here we go Aiah kaya mo to daii!!

"Hi these are for you Aiah, I know di pa enough to sa ginawa ko sayo. I'm sorry!!

This girl really knows how to get me. Marupok mode is turning on.

"I just need my stuff Mikha and don't worry wala naman akong karapatang magalit sayo! It's fine.

She stared at me and I saw pain in her eyes. Binigay niya sakin yung flowers and cake sinunod naman ang mga gamit ko. May pagka sweet side din naman pala siya.

"Guys sabay na tayong mag dinner, my treat. Saan niyo ba gusto? I don't take no for an answer.

"Ate Aiah gutom na ako eh at bawal tanggihan ang grasya. San po ba tayo?

"Kaya nga Aiah I'm too tired to cook na for dinner!!

Wala na akong maasahan sa mga to, when it comes to food they'll betray you.

"Ikaw na bahala Mikha ikaw din naman nag aya at magbabayad.

Time skip!!

She brought us to a fancy restaurant in BGC, she let us order our food and wine.
Colet and Sheena loved the place kitang kita naman.
Nag usap kami ng kung ano ano lang. She's engaging with my friends, telling them about her gallery, the stuff she loved and a bit about herself.

"Mikhs are you single ba? Shee and her randomness.

"Yeah it's been more than a year now!!

We finished our food and drinks, nagpa alam na sila Colet.

"We'll go ahead na ni Shee, I think you need to talk guys. Thank you so much for tonight Mikha. Ingatan mo yang si Aiah kung ayaw mong makatikim sakin!!

WTF guys iniwan niyo ko sa babaeng to. My insides are screaming for help. We stared at each other for a long time and she broke off the silence, reaching my hands on the other side of the table.

"Aiah I'm sorry!! I don't mean to hurt you yan ang pinaka ayaw ko sa lahat na mangyari, ang masaktan ka. You're too precious.
I meant it when I said I want to get to know you. Pwede ba yun Aiah?

My mind is contradicting my heart right now, bahala na nga. Masaktan na kung masaktan.

"Just please be honest with me Mikha!!

"I will Aiah. Can I take you somewhere tomorrow?
