Falling For Mikhaela Janna Lim

Chapter 33: Win or Hurt?

NO ONE'S POV

Intramurals came, and the celebration started.

Naging abala sila Aiah sa opening ng event, with each player from different departments and sports being introduced with their respective teams.

The four friends from the council managed the opening events, but aside from that, the sports facilitator was in charge.

"Ayaw ko naaaa! hindi na ako magka-council next year, gusto ko na mag bebetime!" Sheena whined, slumping onto the couch tiredly.

"As if you have a choice, first year ka pa lang, Shee. May dalawang taon pa bago ka mag-graduate para matanggal sa pagiging council." Stacey retorted while doing her makeup.

"Hiyang-hiya sa'yo, Staku." Sheena fired back.

"Well, it’s not my fault that both Ate Maloi and Ate Aiah are gurang na." Stacey replied with a smirk.

"Wow, kala mo naman sampung taon ang age gap natin, beh? good luck sa inyo pag third year na kami ni Ate Aiah, salong-salo n'yo ang responsibilidad." singit ni Maloi while playing with her hair and putting on some ribbons.

The four of them were resting in the council office after the hectic schedule of the Intramurals.

The three girls kept complaining, while Aiah just sat silently, though her thoughts were running wild, particularly about Mikha's whereabouts.

The last time she saw Mikha was last week, and it’s already the second day of Intramurals, yet Mikha was nowhere to be found.

She just hoped that Mikha would show up for her volleyball game tomorrow.

Maloi and the other two girls noticed Ate Aiah’s gloomy mood, but they couldn't do anything about it, nor could they tell why Mikha was missing in action.

Mikha's friends told them that Mikha got injured over the weekend dahil ka sa nga sumusunod dito after the dinner with their family but they couldn’t tell Aiah because she didn't know Mikha's true identity.

Besides, they knew Mikha would show up for her game, she was just resting her leg, which wasn’t too seriously injured.

"Ate Aiah, huwag mo na masyadong isipin si crushiecakes mo." Sheena teased, but she only received an eyeroll from Aiah as she stood up and excused herself.

"Ewan ko sa inyo, una na muna ako. Balik ako later, I'll just change my clothes saglit sa bahay." paalam ni Aiah bago lumabas ng council office.

"Ingat, Ate Aiah!"

"Huwag mo masyadong isipin si Mikha!"

"Teh, dalhan mo kami pagkain pagbalik mo!"

Aiah just shook her head, a small smile tugging at her lips, and started walking toward the parking lot.

Mas maraming sasakyan ngayon sa parking area dahil open ang school nila kahit local intramurals lang.

Some of the students from the satellite campuses came to watch the events.

Their campus was the main one for Binivelle University, and there were three other satellite campuses scattered around the area.

As Aiah made her way through the crowd, her mind wandered back to Mikha, making her oblivious to her surroundings.

She was lost in thought, wondering where Mikha could be and why she hadn't shown up yet.
