"Good morning." Isang malambing na gising ang narinig ko mula sa aking tenga. My smile instantly escaped hearing the angelic voice of my girlfriend.
I turn to see her and I swear, she's the most exquisite person I know. Her beauty stands even if she just woke up.
"Good morning." I huskily stated. She pepper my face with kiss which cause me to giggle.
"Wake up na, Mikha Lim. May pasok ka pa today." Aiah said so I got up. "Sunod ka sa kitchen, I'll prepare breakfast for you." She stole a kiss from me then happily jumped out of bed and exit the room.
I smiled to myself because of how adorable my girlfriend is. I went to the bathroom to brush my teeth then proceed to the kitchen.
Aiah and I been together for two years now. I met her sa school while I'm taking my master's degree. She's an inter professor sa school kung saan kami nagkakilala.
Maybe na love at first sight ako sa kaniya. Hindi na siya maalis sa isipan ko and I have to find all the courage para maging malapit sa kaniya.
I'm happy na hinayaan niya akong manligaw and ngayon, masaya na kaming magkasama sa iisang bubong bilang magkasintahan.
I saw her making breakfast at the kitchen so I immediately walked behind her and wrapped my arms around her waist.
"Why you're always looks good in the morning, bub?" I whispered as I caress her stomach. She lean her body to me then peck me a kiss on my cheeks.
"Tama na ang pambobola. You sit na so you can eat." I kissed the back of her head then followed her instructions.
She served me my food and eat with me. We have our morning conversations like what will be our agenda for the day.
This is enough for me. Waking up with her and closing the day with her in my arms. This is life for me. A life with Aiah is more than enough for me.
I heard a loud knock which made my head turn. "Sino kaya---" I was about to asked Aiah but she's nowhere to be found.

I heard the knock once again then I suddenly woke up from my sleep. My room is dark, pieces of clothing strewn on the floor.
"Bubuksan ko na 'yung pinto. You have to leave your room Mikha." The door swung open and I saw Stacey coming inside with a worried face.
"Ang kalat ng kuwarto mo, Mikha." Pagrereklamo niya habang pinupulot ang mga damit ko na nakakalat.
"Si Aiah? Where's Aiah?" I asked. Mabilis akong tumayo at lumabas ng kuwarto ko, frantically looking for my girlfriend. My heart raise every steps I take.
"Mikhs.." Stacey softly stated habang sinusundan ako sa paghahanap kay Aiah sa loob ng apartment.
"She's.. she's supposed to make me breakfast... She promise.. she..." I can't utter a complete sentence because of the heaviness in my chest. I stopped on my track and looked at Stacey.
I saw pity in her eyes. I won't blame her, I looked pitiful right now.
Pakiramdam ko ay naninikip ang dibdib ko at bumabagal ang paghinga ko. Tuluyan nang bumagsak ang mga tuhod ko kasabay ng pagbagsak ng mga luha ko. I saw Stacey rushed towards me.
"Mikha, stop thinking about her." Stacey said full of concern. She's now sitting on the floor as she hugs my weak body.
"I want her back, Stacey... I love her so much."
Flashback
"Aiah! Please. Let's talk muna.. hmm? Please." Pagmamakaawa ko habang pinipigilan ko siyang umalis.
