Limp - call the raise. either fold or c/f the flop.

Let me explain. AK UTG is a pain to play. If you miss the flop - like you did here - and you lead preflop - you have an issue.

Much easier to play this passive preflop. If you smash the flop - you have some deception on your side. If you don't - you get away cheap.
