"How's the surgery going?" Aiah removed her earrings then put it securely in its place.
"Good, his heart is good enough to do the repair. He's still in the ICU but if everything is well then he can move to his room tomorrow."
"Tomorrow?" She was surprised. "Isn't that too fast?"
"I said if everything is okay, didn't I? My resident just called me, he's awake now, still on support system but he's alright. You can see him tomorrow."
"If I have some time left then maybe I'll stop by."
Mikha didn't reply, she sighed and dropped her half tired body on the bed instead. Her legs were still hanging at the edge of the bed.
Aiah, who was still in her dress, sympathetically watched her fiance stroking her stiff forehead. She took a seat beside her then laid her trunk, facing Mikha. "Tired?"
"Very." she replied shortly.
"Come here." Aiah slipped her left arm under Mikha's neck as her other arm pulled her by the waist to shorten their distance. Aiah silently massaged Mikha's head gently. Mikha closed her eyes, enjoying the pleasant treatment.
Today, she had two surgeries, a joint case with other departments, meeting with the hospital board discussing one of her friend's cases, visited her patients, had a quick dinner with her parents and parents in law, and lastly, she had to drive them to the airport. Aiah offered to do the driving but she refused.
She could feel her feet burning because it's aching badly. Her mood was bad due to her tiredness yet she couldn't stop the smile that crept out her lips by the memory of the dinner tonight.
"Bubby?" Mikha called with her eyes still closed.
"Yes, honey?"
"1st of June, huh?"
- - - - - - - -
"So, do you guys have a specific date?" Aiah's father asked at the family dinner.
Mikha and Aiah exchanged glances, they hadn't had the chance to discuss it. Blame it on the awesome physical activity that left them unconscious for hours. Since sex was a new experience to Aiah and Mikha, both just seemed to not stop doing it in every possibility they got.
"Well?" the elders all demanded.
"June 1st" they both replied simultaneously.
"Did you just—"
"How come—"
Mikha and Aiah burst out laughing. Mikha increased her hand asking for a high five which Aiah gladly clapped it.
"Great minds think alike." they grinned.
"What do you mean?" Mrs. Lim questioned.
"We just decided the date now, mom." Aiah smiled sweetly.
"Excuse me?"
"We decided about it without discussing it first, and I think it's settled, right dear?" Mikha chuckled.
"I would love to make my vow to you on that very fateful day."
1st of June was the day they first laid their eyes on each other and that date just popped in their heads unplanned.

"1st of June." she grinned widely. "Five months to go, Mikhs."
"Should I change your name on my phone to... let's see... hot mama?" she let a laugh slip out.
