Rj calling...
Alden picked up the phone. "Hello?"
"Umm... M-Meng?"
"Y-Yes. I guess." She paused to take a breath and then yelled, "WHAT THE HELL IS HAPPENING?" He heard her or his voice on the other end of the line, breathing a sigh of relief. "Rj! Anong nangyayari?!"
"Wait, wait, so.... You're me?"
"I think. I'm still me, Menggay, in my head but in your body!"
"Same here."
"Fuck. Is this for real? I was just watching a movie like this!"
"Okay, calm down. Hindi ko alam but baka naman panaginip?"
"Anong panaginip?! Gising na gising tayong dalawa, di ba?"
"Shit. Shit. Shit."
"I don't get it. This can't be happening."
"I know, but for now let's just try to get by. Baka naman bukas okay na." He sighed. "Sige na, we have to get ready for work. We have an endorsement shoot. Susunduin nalang kita so we can talk before work."
"Okay." She agreed, but didn't drop the call. "WAIT."
"What?"
"Baliktad. Ako susundo sa'yo." She said. "Which car should I use? Where do you even keep your keys?"
"Oo nga pala." He told her where to find everything she needed and she did the same. "O sige na. Let's get ready para makapag-usap na tayo kung anong gagawin natin about this."
"Okay. WAIT LANG!"
He rolled his eyes - or her eyes. "Ano na naman?"
"Maliligo ka?"
"Malamang."
"Uh. Umm... Close your eyes when you bathe."
"What –" He couldn't help but laugh out loud. They had been together officially for awhile now, but they hadn't been that intimate. "Menggay, even if I close my eyes, I'm still going to have to touch your... ummm this body."
She stayed silent.
"We've always complained kulang tayo sa sexy time, baka ito na yun kaya binigay sa 'tin?" He teased.
"'Tado. Shut up, Rj." He heard ragged breathing. "Shit. Rj! Your, umm, shit... It's standing up! Fuck, what do I do?"
"Touch it."
"Rj! This is not the time to joke around!"
"I won't get mad! We've done that much before. You're just going to have to do it to my body, with you in it. Gahd, ang screwed up into." He continued to tease her. "I won't get mad, really. I mean, I have needs... I mean, my body has needs and since you're in there you're going to have to help me out."
"'Nyeta ka, Faulkerson."

He enjoyed teasing her but Alden was faced with a dilemma - how to get through bathing without touching her body in... umm... well, those places. "Aha! BIMPO!"
He ran to her closet and thankfully found a wash cloth and proceeded with his bath. Even with the cloth, it took all his will not to look at the full length mirror in the bathroom and not let his hands explore and roam around. Kingina. Kingina. Kingina.
Next was the process of having to select her outfit. He chose matching animal print underwear, a white see-through floral shirt and striped jeans.
"What are you wearing?!" She said as soon as she - he - well, her in his body, arrived at her place. "Wrong underwear and jeans for that shirt!"
She marched to her closet and picked out items. "Don't wear a printed bra under a white shirt, goodness Alden, ano ba."
"Fine." He pouted then got changed. "Malay ko ba. Bakit kasi ang daming sinusuot. At bakit ganito yung panty? Sumusuksok sa pwet ko."
She chuckled. "Malamang. Thong yan eh."
"Kingina. Maganda lang pala tingnan. Meng, kahit wag kang magsuot ng ganito for me, okay lang. Ang uncomfortable pala."
"HOY! Sino nagsabing magsusuot ako niyan for you?"
He frowned. "So bakit ka may ganito? Para kanino 'to?!"
She laughed. "Napag-trip-an lang namin bilhin one time. Maganda naman eh. Kaya nga lang sobrang uncomfortable kaya never ko pang sinuot."
Once he passed her inspection, they headed to the car and drove to their shoot. "Kamusta naman kanina? Nakaligo ka naman ng maayos?" He asked her. "Huy, dapat nag-scrub ka ng maayos ha! Baka mamaya may libag pa yang katawan ko."
"Yabang mo! OO. Nilinis ko 'no!"
"So, nahawakan mo na lahat? Kamusta naman?" He teased again. "Sarap?"
"Gago. I used a loofah and a wash cloth!"
"Kahit sa -"
"Shut up!" She said at the same time he asked, "-pwet?"
"What is it with you and butts today?!" She yelled, while gripping the steering wheel tighter.
He looked at her and laughed at her discomfort, then noticed her blushing furiously. "Bakit ang pula mo?"
"Wala."
"Bakit nga?! Uuuuuyyyyy, tsinansingan mo ako 'no?" He noticed her eyes widen and he continued to tease her. "Uy, grabe ka sa kin. Taking advantage ka."
"Hindi ko sinasadya!"
"HAHAHAHAHA! Hindi nga?! Pano?"
"Wala nga. Shut up."
"So, since nag-take advantage ka, pwede din ba -"
"NO! SHUT UP, FAULKERSON!"
He continued to laugh. "Joke lang! Pero, paano nga?"
"Are you really going to ask me to tell you?!"
"Yes."
"You're enjoying this."
"Immensely."
She parked the Jaguar in the slot reserved for artists before replying. "I just - I... Even with the wash cloth kasi naramdaman ko yung behind mo, okay? And I just, let my hand rest there for a bit. Sorry."
He looked shocked. "I can't believe you answered that."
"WHAT?"
"HAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA! Niloloko lang kita eh. HAHAHAHA!"
"Bwiset ka, Faulkerson."
"Nice to know pinagnanasahan ako ng girlfriend ko." He teased as they exited the car. "You know what? This doesn't seem to be a bad thing after all. I think I'm going to enjoy this for awhile."
He saw her narrowing his eyes when she said, "Laugh now. Tingnan ko lang anong gagawin mo pag nagkaron na ako IN A FEW DAYS. Say hello to my dinosaur for me!"
