AIAH'S POV
We're on our way back to the condo, and Mikha was so excited about the watermelon popsicle that she opened it right away. She also asked me to open mine so she could take a photo.
"I was nervous for nothing," she said with a confident grin right after taking our selfie.
"Sus, parang kanina lang kinakabahan ka ah," I responded, teasing her.
"That's my alter ego," she replied with a smirk.
"Ayan ka na naman," I said, rolling my eyes.
"Namiss mo naman," she said confidently.
"Weew, I see where the confidence is coming from," I answered, nodding my head.
"I want to kiss you..." she suddenly uttered, catching me off guard and making my heart flutter. I felt butterflies in my stomach, the kind that made me feel like I was floating just above the ground.
"Oh, bakit nagbu-blush ka? I can't do that right now, love, we're in public," she said with a mischievous wink, her eyes sparkling with playful intent.
Her teasing only made me blush deeper. The warmth of her words, combined with the depth of her voice, was like a gentle caress that made my heart race and my cheeks heat up even more but I needed to stop myself from blushing, she'd obviously tease me more.
"Ewan ko sa'yo Mikha Lim" I briefly responded
"Sus, kilig ka naman sa'kin eh" pangaasar niya
"Gusto mong umuwi na?" I asked, raising my eyebrows
"Love naman, nagjo-joke lang naman ako eh" she pouted
Tumakbo naman ako para mas maunahan siya"Hey!!! Ba't ka tumatakbo?!" she called out, trying to catch up.
I turned to face her and stuck out my tongue.
"Para naman 'tong bata eh!!" she exclaimed, her voice filled with playful frustration.
"Luh, kakahiya naman sayo, Mikha Lim!" I retorted, laughing.
"Love, stop na please. I'm tired na," she pleaded, her tone softening.
I just smiled at her and continued walking faster, leaving her to do her best to keep up.
"Aiah naman eh. Slowly lang kasi," she grumbled, clearly annoyed.
"Ah ganun? Aiah na pala tawag mo sa'kin?" I asked, raising an eyebrow, which made her smile.
"Sus, gusto mo pala 'love' tawag ko sayo lagi, eh," she joked, kaya mas lalo kong binilisan ang lakad ko
"Ewan ko sayo," I muttered, just as the elevator doors opened. I quickly slipped inside and closed the door, leaving Mikha outside.
Nai-imagine ko pa lang mukha niya mamaya, natatawa na agad ako.As soon as I entered the condo, I saw the girls teasing each other while lounging on the couch.
"Oh, asan na yung Mikha mo?" Jho asked, peeking over the back.
"Iniwan ko hahahaha," I responded, laughing hard.
"Ay hala, siya, balik nanaman sa pagkaisip bata," Loi said with a smirk.
"Syempre, kasama nanaman si ano eh," Jho added with a knowing glance.
I laughed at their jokes.
I don't know but whenever I'm with Mikha, I feel completely at ease. She's like my safe space, where I can be myself without any worries. Being around her just feels right, and I wouldn't trade that feeling for anything.After a few minutes, the door finally opened, and Mikha entered with a frown on her face.
"Nangyari sa'yo?" West asked.
Instead of answering, Mikha handed the popsicles to Stacey and marched straight over to me. She started tickling me relentlessly.
"Iniwan mo 'ko, huh? This is your consequence," she said, her fingers tickling me non-stop."Mikha Lim, s-stop!" I exclaimed, trying to push her hands away.
"No, no. Say please muna?" she teased, her smirk widening.
"No, why would I do t-that?" I stuttered, laughter escaping with every tickle.
"Ahh ayaw mo? Okay," she said, then tickled me even more.
"O-okay na, please stop na l-love," I finally said.
"LOVE?!!" Sheena and Stacey exclaimed in unison.
Nabigla rin ako nung natawag ko si Mikha ng "love" by accident, dala lang ng bugso ng damdamin.
"Ano yan, we picked up where we left off?" Loi asked, crossing her arms.
"Lord, please enlighten us," Jho said, her hands positioned as if she's about to pray.
"Namali lang, okay?! Ang O-OA niyo!" I protested.
"So it was just a mistake lang pala sayo?" Mikha asked, pouting.
"Piskit bai. Ang landi ni Mikha Lim!!!" West exclaimed, shaking her head.
"Iuwi ko na ba 'to girls?" West added, asking the rest of the girls
"Love, help me naman" Mikha pleaded habang nakatingin sa akin
"Ay talaga! 'Di ka titigil?" West asked"West, stop na. She'll sleep with me so wala kang iuuwi, okay?" I joked, but it turned out they took me seriously.
The girls stared at me intently, their eyes wide in disbelief. Even Mikha looked flustered, her cheeks turning red.
"No, no! I was just joking, guys! Ang serious niyo masyado eh," I quickly explained.
"But the way you said it, serious din eh," Loi responded.
"No, I'm just joking. Don't take it seriously," I insisted.
"Sus, I'm serious tapos mamaya niyan magkatabi na sa kwarto," Stacey said, crossing her arms.
The idea of sleeping next to Mikha made me flustered. Just thinking about it gave me butterflies.
"W-wait lang. Kayo na ba?" West asked.
I looked at Mikha, unsure of the answer, and she looked back at me, equally uncertain.
"May magkaibigan bang 'love' ang tawagan?" Jho asked.
As soon as Jho asked, Mikha turned to me and said, "Can you be my girlfriend this time, Aiah?" Her eyes were earnest, and I felt a rush of emotion.
I slowly nodded, and our gazes locked. It felt like it was just the two of us, savoring the moment together.
Upon seeing me nod, Mikha rushed over and hugged me tightly.
"I love you so much, love. Thanks for giving me another chance, and for trusting me," she whispered.
"I love you too, Mikha Lim," I replied, my voice muffled against her neck.
She held me even tighter. "I missed you, and this time I'll make sure to always spend my time with you," she whispered.
I simply nodded, my face still nestled in her neck.
"PISKITTT. ANG LALANDIIIII," West shouted, her excitement evident as she jumped up and down.
The rest of the girls were also smiling, clearly happy for us.
