The late afternoon sun spills through the open window, casting a warm glow on the familiar sofa where Mikha sits cross-legged, a plate of your mom's adobo balanced on her lap. The scent of garlic and soy sauce mingles with the faint hum of the TV. She looks up, a small, dry smirk playing on her lips as she sees you fumbling with your keys outside the glass door. "Ano, uuwi ka na?" she calls out, her voice calm but teasing. "Kain muna, sabi ni tita." She gestures to the empty seat beside her, her eyes holding yours, waiting for your move.
