Oo na, Mahal Kita (JeMik)

Chapter 10

Jeron

Mika stood up.

"S-sige Jeron, mauna na ako sayo..." dali dali niyang kinuha ang bag niya that made the girls beside me confused. "bye girls...." She smiled and immediately went out.

I shook my head. Kahit kailan talaga.

"Ayyy..." napatingin ako sa taas nang magsalita ang isang babae. "Hindi pala kayo magkasama ni Mika?" naka pout niyang sabi. It seems she was disappointed on something. But I guess, about Mika and me.

"N-ni Mika?" I asked and they all nodded. "a-uhm... No. We just bumped into each other here. Nilapitan ko lang siya to say Hi and pasensya na kayo, nagmamadali daw kasi siya... She's with her... hmmm. friends. Yeaah, her friends."

I just hope they bought it. Pero sa tingin ko naging convincing naman ako.

Lumipat sila ng pwesto at humarap sa akin. "hmm Jeron, can we ask you a question?" nahihiya pa nilang sabi at nakangiti pa sila.

"idol, sana okay lang sayo..." sabat nung isa.

"ano yun?"

"hmm. how is Mika po? I mean... di ba po you are friends? How is she as your friend?"

Napakunot ako ng noo.

"Sorry po ah, pero some were bashing her po kasi on twitter before... hindi po kami naniniwala hanggat di po namin alam ang totoo."

She's famous so its not anymore new to me... Kapag sikat ka marami kang bashers. Buti nalang at wala na kami sa uaap ngayon.

Napa iwas ako ng tingin at napa isip. Ano nga ba si Mika?

I saw her outside with a little girl crying. Kinarga niya ito at pinatahan... Everything she does went into slow motion.

And my heart was beating faster.

"she's... she's amazing..." I said without looking at the girls in front of me.

Dahan dahan namang nag flashback ang unang pagkita namin sa bar ni Thomas. That day na nagkabanggaan kami... the day when she comforted me when I was at my worst... the day when her father saw us sleeping on the same bed... the day when we both know that we are getting married... the day when we were arguing about our wedding... the day when she walked the aisle, by the way, she was sooo beautiful that day... the day when we were married...

At ang mga araw na puro hampas ang natitikman ko mula sa kanya, ang bottle ng shampoo na tinapon niya sa akin at ang 'wifey duties mo mukha mo' na linya niya.

Hindi siya nahihiya kahit mukha na siyang PG at ewan sa harapan ko, she is what she is. And that's the best thing about her.

I smiled at the thought.

And that's how she is... she is amazing.

Hindi ko alam kung saan nanggaling ang mga iniisip ko but somehow I agree kahit nag isip mag isa ang utak ko.

Tama, nag isip mag isa ang utak ko.

I looked at the girls in front of me waiting to continue my statement.

"She does everything she likes... she's not afraid to show off her real self. She's just what she is. Mika is real, and whatever you read on twitter or on any social media sites... those are just pure insecurities. Those are not true."

Hindi ko alam pero nakaramdam ako ng tapang nang sabihin yun. It gives me signals that I need to protect her.

And I don't know why...
