THIRD PERSON'S POV
Tatlong araw ang makalipas and gratefully, Yung nightmares ni Mikha ay hindi bumalik ulit. Stacey was happy kasi hindi na niya kailangan silang layuan. And as for Mikha, she's satisfied since napatunayan na niya sa sarili niya na okay na talaga siya.
Today ang college entrance exam nila. Nagusap usap na din sila na sa iisang university nalang sila kahit magkakaibang courses.
It was six in the morning nung tumunog ang alarm clock ni Mikha. Gusto talaga niyang gumising ng maaga kaya sinet niya yung alarm niya ng maaga kasi gusto niya ipagluto ang mga kaibigan niya. She do her morning routine bago pa siya bumaba.
Akala ni Mikha na siya lang ang gising kaya nagulat ito nung makita niya si Aiah sa living room. Aiah didn't noticed Mikha presence because she was indulge on sketching something.
"Planning to be a fashion designer?" Mikha said. Aiah jumped a bit when she heard her voice but she quickly recovered.
"Oo, what do you think?" Aiah said, pertaining to the dress that she drew.
Nagulat naman si Aiah sa ginawa ni Mikha. Nilapit ni Mikha ang mukha niya para makita ng maayos yung ginawa ni Aiah. Ang mga mukha nila ay magkalapit na.
"Wow. Ang ganda nito ah. How come na hindi ko alam na may skills ka pala na ganito?" Mikha said but got no reply from Aiah. Aiah was still frozen, and staring at Mikha's side view.
Nung hindi narinig ni Mikha na sumagot si Aiah, she slowly turned to her which made Aiah reflexively divert her attention away. Aiah let out a few strands of her hair para lang maitago ang yung namumula niyang mga pisngi kay Mikha.
"Thank you" Aiah muttered softly.
"I like drawing stuffs kapag bored ako at kapag mag isa ako" She explained.
"Is that so?" Mikha said and distance herself.
"Saan ka pupunta?" Aiah asked nung makita niyang naglakad palayo si Mikha.
"To the kitchen. I guess it's time for you to taste my cooking, arceta" Mikha said wearing a confident smirk.
Aiah felt the head risen up to her cheeks. She started to fan herself using her right hand.
"Bakit ba biglang uminit dito shit?" Aiah asked herself. She took what Mikha said in another way.
"Kailangan ko ng tubig"
Alam ni Aiah sa sarili niya na hindi tubig ang kailangan niya. She's curious lang kung sanay ba talaga si Mikha mag luto and at the same time, Natatakot lang din siya na magkasunog sa kitche or worse masunog niya ang buong bahay.
Tumayo naman agad si Aiah at sinundan si Mikha sa kitchen where she found Mikha preparing. Dumiretso siya sa refrigerator para kumuha ng tubig, maybe for her not to be obvious that she's spying Mikha. Mikha was busy preparing so she didn't paid attention to Aiah who is now watching at her every move.
"So, Ano ang balak mong lutuin?" Aiah asked.
"Pancakes" Mikha replied shortly.
Aiah scoffed hearing Mikha's answer.
"Totoo ba? Pancakes?"
"Ano ba ang problema sa pancakes? Naalala ko non you used to cook those for me. I think it's time for me to do the same, Ano sa tingin mo?" Mikha said.
Hindi makasagot si Aiah kay Mikha kasi she was mesmerized by Mikha's beauty nung sinumulan ni Mikha na itali ang buhok niya. Mikha was wearing a denim jumper with a black tank top underneath. Hindi naman matanggal ang tingin ni Aiah sa biceps ni Mikha na ngayon nakatingin na sa Jawline nito. Hindi na niya mabilang kung ilang beses na siya napalunok habang nakatingin kay Mikha.
"I think you're still hot while cooking though" Aiah's eyes widened nung narealize niyang malakas pala ang pagkakasabi niya. Mikha blinked for a few times, wondering kung tama ba ang narinig niya.
"Really? I'm hot?" Mikha said. A teasing smirk started to formed right into her lips which made Aiah have some hard time to respond.
"Do you...." Mikha said as she started to walk towards Aiah. Napapaatras naman si Aiah habang papalapit si Mikha until Aiah felt the sink behind her. Mikha leaned forward, Making Aiah to automatically hold out at the sink behind her for support.
"Do you perhaps have a crush on me, Arceta?" Mikha said still wearing that smug smirk of hers.
"Are you speechless?" Mikha added before moving away.
"Nagjo-joke lang ako" Mikha said and went back to finish her preparations.
"G-gigisingin k-ko lang sila" Aiah said as an excuse para lang mawala lang siya sa sitwasyon na yon.
"Oo, Ayoko rin naman na ma-late" Mikha said without looking at her.
After a few minutes bumalik naman si Aiah and nakagayak na siya.
"Oh. Good timing, luto na ang pancakes" Mikha said.
"Tara dito, have a bite" Mikha added and handed Aiah a plateful of pancakes with a lots of honey and blackberries on top.
"This should be good ha" Aiah warned Mikha.
"Hindi mo naman malalaman unless you start eating" Mikha answered confidently.
"Wow, the confidence ha" Aiah said which made Mikha giggle that seems like music to Aiah's ears.
"Oo nga pala ano ang kukunin mo?" Aiah asked out of her curiosity.
"Hindi ba obvious? I'm taking culinary"
"Bakit? I thought you love taking pictures. Bakit nagpalit ka sa culinary"
"I really do have the passion na maging isang photographer pero there's no one else who can continue our business kundi ako"
"That make sense. I was really looking forward lang to hear your name boom sa photography industry pero yung culinary isn't bad at all"
"Chef Mikhaela Lim. Ang cool diba?"
"Indeed."
"So, Kamusta naman ang lasa?"
Aiah took her first bite and she was surprised. Sanay na talaga si Mikha magluto gaya ng sabi ni Stacey.
"Not bad mik mik"
Hearing those nickname for the first time and made Mikha froze. Hindi niya inexpect na maririnig niya ito kay Aiah for a long time. Aiah on the other hand ay nagulat din. It's a habit for her na tawagin niya si Mikha by that nickname since nagsisimula na ulit silang maging close. But now, Aiah was afraid na baka maka apekto ito sa progress nilang dalawa. Luckily biglang dumating ang girls saving the both of them from an awkward atmosphere.
"Nakakaamoy ako ng pagkain!" Maloi yelled that gained the attention of the both of them. Nasa likod ng kikay line ang mga papi line na antok na antok parin siguro mga nagpuyat.
"Bon appétit" Mikha said with a smile.
"Magpre-prepare lang ako ng sarili ko." Mikha said before heading upstairs.
