Have You Ever

Chapter 39 - Her Place

Mikha's POV

Aiah's hug is heart warming, I just want to stay like this, yung tipong ayaw ko ng kumawala sa yakap niya.

We both looked at each other when raindrops fell from the sky, napakalakas ng kulog at biglang napayakap sakin si Aiah. "We better go Aiah!! Come take my hand.

Tumakbo kami patungong parking lot dahil lumalakas na ang ulan, I saw Aiah getting wet and I took off my jacket and gave it to her.

"Baka lamigin ka, I don't want you to get sick Mikha!! Ayaw pa tanggapin pero di ako papayag lamigin siya mahaba haba pa ang biyahe namin pauwi.

"I insist, don't worry about me kaya ko sarili ko. Take it. I left Aiah with no choice, isinuot na niya ito.

I feel so carefree when I'm with her. Even if she's dripping wet, she's so beautiful at bigla nalang akong napalunok when I saw her top hugging her body bakat na naman.

"Shit Mikha yan pa iniisip mo? Umaandar kamanyakan mo!! (Self thoughts)

"Hoy Mikha what's wrong? Kanina pa kita tinatawag.

"I'm sorry Aiah. Nakakahiya I was spacing out nakarating na pala kami sa kotse ko. I opened the car door for her. I grabbed some tissue at pinunasan ko muna yung mukha ni Aiah.
She was shocked by what I did. "Pasensya ka na, you're dripping wet kasi."
"Thank you sa pagmamalasakit mo sakin Mikhs"

Time Skip!!

Maulan din pala sa Metro Manila, we both need to change our clothes dahil sobrang basang basa kami sa ulan we can't go to dinner looking like this.

"Aiah about our dinner, can we just order food since we need to change our clothes. Ayokong magka sakit ka. Your place or mine? Gusto ko ng sapakin ang sarili ko bakit ba bigla ko nalang sinabi yun. Kinakabahan ako baka ma turn off sakin si Aiah.

"Uhmmm. My place would be great Mikha malapit lang dito condo ko".

We arrived at Aiah's place, she turned on the lights and went straight to her room I just stood there waiting for her.

She gave me a towel and her warm cozy clothes. "You need to take a shower para iwas sakit. Just go straight then left. I'll order food narin.

I thank Aiah at pumasok na ako sa banyo, I took a warm bath. I need this medyo napagod din ako sa biyahe namin.

Pag labas ko ng banyo hindi ko mahagilap si Aiah. I called her and no answer. Saan na kaya siya?
I heard the door opened and I was glad it was Aiah may dala ng mga pagkain.

"Bumaba lang ako saglit dumating na kasi yung dinner natin. I ordered dimsum since you've mentioned the other night that you love it!

I smiled at her, my heart is overjoyed knowing she remembered little things about me.

"You bet Aiah I love them, thank you! You shower first then I'll wait for you. Dalian mo lang ha gutom na ako eh!!

Tumawa lang si Aiah at tumango. I sat at the couch and waited for her, my eyes were looking at the pictures on her wall. She's way different to the person I met in IAO, she looks so reserved.
I want to know who the real Aiah is, she's like a puzzle that I want to solve.

Time skip!!

I was so full tonight, I thank Aiah for the dinner and her warm clothes. I offered to help her with the dishes but, she insisted for me to rest on the couch.

I lay down on the couch nakaramdam nadin ako ng pagod at antok. I opened my phone and saw messages from the girls.
They're worried since whole day akong di nakapag update. I told them I'm fine and we visited Sam earlier in the afternoon.
Bigla na namang umingay ang gc namin, ang dami nilang tanong. I just sent them a picture of Aiah's back at her kitchen counter.
