-Mikha-




"Mikha Lim, mag usap tayo." Aiah with a serious tone held my hand. 





"A-aiah. What's this? B-bakit? I already returned that to Miss Alice."





"Yes, Mikha. Alice is my Aunt."





"W-what? Wait....I can't even remember. Huh?!"




I tried to remember 'that' day. I tried to focus but sumakit lang yung ulo ko.




"Arrgh!" I held on tight on her as my vision started spinning.




"I-i can't remember. Aargh!"




"Mikhs, wag mo pilitin please. Let me tell you what happened."





No, I want to remember it myself. My eyes were shaking, my whole body is shaking. I tried to wrap my head and focus on remembering the past but the pain I felt in my head got worst and it brought me to my knees.




"Mikha! Oh my gosh! Your nose is bleeding! Wait here ----" Aiah turned but I held her hand to stop her.




"K-kaya ko. I w-want to remember -----"




Those were my last word before I passed out.

----------------

I opened my eyes and wandered it, nasa room ako.




I tried to get up when I felt someone's head beside me, naramdaman niya yung pag galaw ko and that woke her up.




"Easy, Mikhs." she assisted me to get up.





"T-thanks, Staks. Saan si Aiah?"




Iniwan na naman ba ako?





"Kalma lang, Mikhs. Nasa kusina si ate Aiah, pinagluto ka. Sila Colet naman lumabas to buy some fruits."





"Staks, alam mo ba?"




"Ang alin? Yung kay A? Or yung totoong nangyari?"




"Everything"





"Yes, alam namin. Kaso, too late na. Naka alis ka na. Kung hindi ka naman nang ghost edi sana nalaman mo kaagad diba?" mataray na sagot nito.





"Pero, p-paano?"





"Hay naku, Mikhs. Si ate Aiah na bahalang mag explain sayo mamaya. Pahinga ka nalang muna. Sabihin ko lang na gising ka na."




I rested for while after Stacey went out.




I was about to close my eyes when I heard soft knocks and the door opened. Aiah emerged holding a tray with a bowl of soup and smiled at me. God, I missed this sight.





"Hi? How are you feeling na?" she carefully placed the tray on my bedside table and naupo sa tabi ko.




"A little bit better. We need to tal---"




"You need to eat first...then here ---- meds." Aiah staring intently to my eyes.

 
"O-okay."



I finished the soup that she prepared and took the medicine na rin. Aiah was just watching me while I am eating and that made me feel uneasy --- it's awkward. Her sight never leaving me, arms crossed and ocassionally letting out heavy sighs. Is she mad ba?
