This or That?

Mikha's POV

I immediately dismissed my teammates after our long tiring training. As I promised, I became hands on with the freshmen. Most of the time, sa kanila nakatuon ang atensyon ko. I patiently taught them basics at kung paano makacatch up sa sets ko. 

"Madaling madali naman yata si Capt?" Colet smirked. 

"Shut up! Exam's approaching, nakapagreview na ba kayo?" I asked the two of them. Mukha naman silang tanga nang hindi sila umimik at nagkatinginan lang. "Bahala nga kayo!" I continued. 

I was about to head out to meet Aiah for our tutoring session when I heard a familiar voice. I turned around and saw Stacey,  walking towards me. I heard Colet and Gwen's murmurs pero hindi ko nalang pinansin. 

My heart pounded in my chest. I hadn't seen her in a while, and I wasn't expecting to see her now. Buong akala ko ay sa weekend nalang kami magkikita for our date.

"Hey, Mikha," she said, her voice soft which made me shock. Sanay ako na masungit si Stacey sa akin kaya nakakapanibago pa rin ang mga inaakto niya.

"Hi, Stacey," I replied, my voice a little shaky.

"Ayon naman pala! Akala ko sa isang Sevilleja na 'tong manok ko eh." I heard Colet whispered. 

"Hi, Gwenny, Colet!" Stacey waved her hands. "I was just in our building and thought I'd stop by," she said.

I couldn't help but smile. It was nice to see her again. Pero hindi ba parang point to point ang building niya papunta rito? Ang layo naman ata.

"Oh, I'll go to your house for tutoring. Would you like to join us?" I asked. "Aiah is really good at explaining things."

Stacey hesitated for a moment, then nodded. "Sure, why not? But you should try studying with me some other time. Mas magaling ako kaysa sa ate ko." she simply said.

Natawa naman ang dalawa sa likuran ko kaya nilingon ko sila at pinanlakihan ng mata. The both of them raised their hands as if surrendering. Colet pulled Gweneth as they head towards the gate.
