Totally Unexpected (JeMik FanFic)

Chapter 12

Jeron's POV

I will make my move today. I already told Mika last night that we'll have our date tonight. Ahia, Thomas and I spent the whole night helping me plan out our date. Si Thomas na raw bahala sa place since Tita naman niya ang owner ng resort. Si Ahia na daw bahala kumausap sa mga girls para ayusan si Mika and aliwin na rin ito while we prepare the place.

Maaga akong nagising dahil hindi rin ako masyadong makatulog kagabi. I guess I'm just excited to say the least. Ewan ko ba. Ang hirap i-explain kung ano man ang nararamdaman ko ngayon. I sat here sa terrace with my coffee just listening to the sound of the waves.

"Aga nating nagising ah. Excited lang?"

Jeron: "Coffee, Ahia? Di ako masyadong nakatulog eh."

Jeric: "Bakit hindi na nakatulog ng maayos?" Umupo si Ahia sa katabing chair ko dito.

Jeron: "I don't know. Excited? Nervous?"

Jeric: "I get it kung excited ka. But nervous? Why?"

Jeron: "Because after tonight, our friendship will definitely be at stake. It may go both ways. And either way, our friendship will never be the same."

Jeric: "Ganun talaga yun Shoti. When you decided to fall for Mika, you also decided to put your friendship at risk. But I tell you, it is a risk worth taking especially if it will make you happy."

Jeron: "What if hindi pala mutual ang nararamdaman namin ni Mika? What if she just sees me as a friend. Or worse lumayo siya sa akin o sila ni Ice. Di ko na yata kaya yun Ahia. I'm too attached to them already."

Jeric: "I can see that. Eveyone can actually see that. Just be ready for whatever direction your relationship with Mika will go after tonight."

Jeron: "I guess that will be the best option for me. Hope for the best, prepare for the worst."

Jeric: "Tama na nga muna 'to. Remember birthday pa ni Ice today. Yun muna bago yang date niyo. Tara, tayo na magprepare ng breakfast."

We went to the kitchen to prepare breakfast for everybody. After breakfast, we decided to play at the beach with the kids. Ang mga girls naman ang nagpaiwan sa bahay dahil maghahanda pa daw sila para sa birthday ni Ice.

Ara's POV

Naghahanda kami ngayon para sa lunch mamaya at sa birthday celebration na din ni Ice. Simple celebration lang naman sabi ni Mika. Nagluto siya nga spagehtti and gumawa ng salad. Si Tita Susan naman nagpadagdag ng barbeque and pork chops and nagvolunteer akong mag-ihaw nun.

Thomas: "Babe, tulungan na kita jan." Biglang sulpot nitong boyfriend ko and sabay back hug sa akin.

Ara: "Eh bakit kailangan may yakap pa? And saan ka galing? After nung breakfast, nawala ka na bigla."

Thomas: "Namiss kita eh." He kissed me sa cheeks. "I did something for Jeron. Para sa date nila ni Mika mamaya."

Ara: "Mamaya na yun? Kaya pala hindi masyadong nakatulog si Mikang kagabi. Excited siguro."

Thomas: "Magdate din tayo mamaya." Nakaakap pa din sa akin.

Ara: "Babe, baka magsawa ka na sa akin dahil sa kakadate natin."

Thomas: Iniharap niya ako sa kanya. "That will never happen, Babe. Kahit everyday pa tayo magdate, hinding-hindi ako magsasawa." He kissed my nose. Ang sweet talaga ng lalaking 'to.

"Nasusunog na yang iniihaw niyo oh." Tiningnan naming dalawa ni Thom ang niluluto at malapit na ngang masunog. "Tama nga munang yang landian niyo bes. Haha"
