Diana's POV

KINABUKASAN

Maaga akong pumunta kina Franki.

"Ikaw na ang bahala sa anak ko Diana ha. Sige, I have to go na eh."

"Yes Ma'am. Ingat po kayo."

Pumasok nako at nakahilata lang si Franki while busy sa phone nya.

"Oh, you're here. Here have a sit." Paupo nya sakin sa tabi nya. Diana, chill. Uupo ka lang.

"Okay Miss Franki, uhm of course first is we start from the basics like furnitures for example. One is chair, there are three words for that. Upuan, with a root word upo which means sit. So if you say You sit down, you'd say upo ka or umupo ka. Okay follow me Miss Franki, u-po ka. U-mu-po ka. Good, you're getting it.."

Pero ang nakakabahala sa ganitong trabaho is when you try to teach your student on how to pronounce something, hindi talaga maiiwasan na titingin sila sa mga labi mo. Sakin wala lang naman yun, pero ang ganda nitong tinuturuan ko parang ewan.

Usually kasi, Straight girls don't actually stare at other girls' lips when they talk but Franki had to do it since it's just required. Which makes me feel uncomfortable.

"U-pu-an. Sil-ya, sa-lam-pu-wit. I think I'm really getting this. " She said enthusiastically, as if she just learned a new special skill.

Tinuruan ko sya hanggang 12 noon. Ang saya ko kasi madali naman syang matuto. Paalis nako nang,

"Diana--" she held my hand.

"Are you doing something else after our session tomorrow?."

"Tomorrow is supposedly my day off. But I need to teach you so, you're the only one I'm meeting."

"Really?. So you're free the whole afternoon?."

"Yes. We can say that. Why?."

"I'm vlogging in this room and I was just wondering if you could be my guest."

"And what would I do there then?."

"I don't know. Depends on my subscribers' request. So, are you in?."

"Sure. That'd be cool. As long as we're not doing porn."

"Haha silly. Okay Diana, see ya'."

"See you too. And Franki, my hand please." Nakalimutan nya kasing bitawan ang kamay ko. Another gay gesture (gaysture) detected. Umasa ka na namaaaan. Wala lang yan sa kanya. Ganyan lang talaga culture nila sa ibang bansa.

"Oh right hehe. Bye." Beso pa nya sakin.

After nito, may mga bata pakong itututor kaya sobrang nakakapagod.

8pm na akong nakauwi sa apartment namin ni Mae. Busy naman ang gaga sa kakareview ng etotutor nya para bukas.

"Sipag natin ah. Nagpapayaman ang btch kong kaibigan."

"May gana akong asarin, hmm musta ni yung Diyosa na sinasabi mo?."

"Ah si Default. Okay naman."

"Anong default?."

"Straight. Yan tingin ng society."

"Hindi naman lahat. Lahat ng tao kahit anong kasarian normal parin yan Diana."

"Maliban nalang sayo. Sino na namang lalaki ang nabiktima mo sa araw na'to?."

"Grabe ka naman. Wala kaya. Focus na muna ako sa work."

"Iba din. Pero Mae, grabe. Sobrang ganda talaga niya. Nung una medyo masungit, pero ngayon okay na. She even asked me na maging guest sa channel niya."

"Ay naku, nakaka-excite naman yan. Ano name niya ulit?."

"Franki Russell."

"Sige sesearch ko later. Patapusin mo muna ako dito sa work ko, okay?. Sya nga pala, kumain ka na?."

"Wag ka namang ganyan, baka mahulog ako sayo mahirap na."

"Baliw. Tinanong lang kung kumain eh. Bahala ka nga dyan, mamatay ka sa gutom. Che."

"Kumain na po ako sa labas madam haha. Thank you sa pagtatanong."

KINABUKASAN

Sobrang excited ko nang makita sya. Madali lang kaming natapos sa tutoring session ko with her.

Nagpiprint na sya ng pagpipilian naming challenge na gagawin, tinulungan ko naman sya sa paggupit ng mga ito.

"You'll be the one to pick a challenge later D ha."

"Pwede ikaw na lang?. I'm bad at this. I always get the terrible choices."

"No, really--you're my guest so you have the privilege."

"Basta don't blame me."

"I won't. Whatever that challenge is, I'll do it with you with all of my heart."

"Okay, if you say so."

After an hour.

"Welcome back to my channel ma'babies! I am here with my beautiful guest, my favorite tutor in the world Diana Mackey!." Introduce ni Franki. Nagwave nalang ako sa camera.

"So, we're here now to do another challenge. By the way guys, I'm learning how to speak Filipino na. So, expect that there would be changes soon. Syempre, thanks to my tutor Diana. Diana--"

Tatanga tanga naman ako, nakalimutan ko agad ang pinractice namin.

"Oh yeah--sorry, I have here the bowl of challenges. I will pick one and that's what we're going to do today. Here it goes.." sabay bunot nako sa bowl.

At nang buksan ko ang nakatuping papel, nanlaki nalang ang mga mata ko.

"Diana--hey, what is it?."

"Uhm can I pick another one?."

"No, remember? We're gonna do your first pick. What's that ba?."

Inabot ko naman agad sa kanya.

"Chapstick challenge. Hmm that's interesting." She said with an awkward smile, looking at me.

"Are you sure--"

"I've never done this challenge before, and I think it's a privilege to do it with you. So, I'll be right back guys. I'll just get the props we need here." Is she serious?.

At dun nako nagsimulang magpanic. Inamoy ko ang hininga ko, buti nalang nagtoothbrush na'ko at hindi ako kumain ng kung anong may masamang amoy. Pumunta muna ako sa CR para mag retouch at umihi. Tapos nakalimutan kong nakaon parin pala ang camera.

Pakiramdam ko mababaliw na ata ako.

Ilang minuto lang ay bumalik na agad si Franki.

"So, D *sigh* are you ready?. You're gonna be first ah. Of course you already know how this works. You'll wear the blindfold, I'll put on the chapstick I chose randomly from this dark colored jar. And for your information guys, I don't have any idea about these chapsticks, these are my sister's. Just to be fair. So Diana, you'll guess what it by tasting it on my lips. Get it?."

Tumango nalang ako ng medyo nag-aalangan.

Why do I have to be gay and be involved with this crazy activity with a straight girl?.
