We decided to book a grab car from mall to the near park. We really need fresh air after what happened, kaya nung tinatanong ako ni Mikha if I want to go home nalang, I refused.

We are now walking sa park at naghahanap ng place kung saan pwede kami umupo para kumain. Ang tahimik nya lang simula pa kanina, magsasalita lang sya pag tatanungin nya kung okay lang ba talaga ako.

"Uhm, Mikha Lim? I'm really fine, thank you for defending me kanina. Please don't be mad na? And another favor? can we not tell the girls about it? I don't want to make them worry just because of that creepy guy."

She looked at me and I know naiinitindihan nya 'ko. Hindi ko na kailangan pa ng maraming dahilan, alam ko na kahit gaano pa kababaw ng dahilan ko, iintindihin nya ko. Kahit magtinginan lang kami, sa expression ng mukha ko, alam nya. She just know me like that.

She sighed and nod and I'm not satisfied with that kind of answer. Need ko muna ilabas ang makulit na Aiah tonight. Feeling ko mas makakatulong din 'to para makalimutan ko yung nangyari kanina.

"Pinky promise?" I pout at alam ko na malapit na syang ngumiti. I'm waving my pinky finger waiting for hers to seal the deal.

"Para kang bata, ate Aiah."

And we sealed a promise. She promised not to tell the girls about what happened earlier, and I promised to keep my feelings in check from now on. I will not avoid her anymore, I just need to hide and forget about the butterflies in my stomach everytime she's around.
