Between You & I (GxG)

CONDOM PO. 1BOX

Jan’s PoV

Sobrang gulat ko kaya naitulak ko si Krull at napaupo sya sa sahig. “Gosh! My undies!” she is obviously on panic too pero napa stop nalang kami nung makita namin na nakasilip na si Dylan sa pinto.

“LUMABAS KA MUNA ANUBA!” sigaw ni Krull habang madaliang itinatago yung katawan ko. Dylan did so pumunta muna ako sa CR at nag hugas.

After everything was clear, saka pumasok si Dylan.

“Lumabas ka Krull.” sabi ko at parang di nya pa ineexpect na sasabihin ko yun. Aangal palang sya nung sumigaw ako. “LUMABAS KA SABI KO.” lumapit lang sya and leans her head on me.

“Janhae please dalawa tayong sangkot dito—” I shut her with a kiss.

“Usap tayo mamaya ha? I love you.” at parang na kuntento na sya dun. Paglabas nya, kitang kita ko kung paano sya pinandirihan ni Dylan.

I clear my throat to get his attention. When I did, I sigh. “I’m sorry Dylan.”

“For?” tanong nya at biglang tumayo. “For being a lesbian? No Janhae. Don’t worry hindi ako galit although na-shock ako.” nagulat ako kase he sounds interested. Walang galit. He sounds like a child curious about what’s on the next page of his bed time story. Nakangiti pa sya “I mean, how? You are so so so girly and—I didn’t know you penchant for females.”

“Hindi ka galit?”

“No.” he said na mejo tumatawa. “Excuse for my word pati sorry in advance narin pero hindi kita type. Una, I think you’re beautiful—no one can ever beat you on that pero ayoko sa maarte. But now look, you were with a girl? I mean—how? Since when? I mean, all this time you are gay?”

“Dylan not really. I am gay only for one girl. I don’t penchant for girls. Just Krull. Pero yes. I am gay—for Krull.”

“Wow.” di ko alam kung matutuwa ako o mahihiya. “Janhae you are extraordinary. I like your confidence.”

“Like my confidence?” tanong ko kasi parang may laman yung pagkakasabj nya nun e. Napailing nalang sya.

“I’m gay, Janhae.” muntik nakong hindi makahinga nun. “I am literally gay. Sana wag kang magagalit pero I used this engagement with you because I want to get close with Kieffer. Pero hindi ko alam paano ioopen. Gosh Janhae you so brave.”

“You too. Biruin mo na iconfess mo sakin na trip mo si Kieffer kahit alam mong pinsan ko sya? Man, you’re brave.”

“Because I can’t help it. I locked it in me my entire life and now, I never expect to find companion in my fiancée.”

Natawa nalang ako ng malakas and he joined in. “BES!!” I high fived him and he just laugh.

“So nainggit ka sa sexiness ko?”

“Di no. I don’t like trans. Just me. Saka wala akong nakita kanina since yung ulo ni Krull yung nakasubsob.” Sa sobrang hiya ko hinagis ko yung folder at company handbook sa kanya bago ako nagblush ng todo. “Jan, sana walang maka alam.”

“Trust me Dylan. Or can I call you Dee?”

“Great. Dee. I want it Dee.”

“Pero bes pano si Papa?” natigilan kami pareho at napakamot sya sa baba nya. He’s so manly. Very manly.

“Balak ko na sana hindi magpakita after I hurt you kase believe me Jan. Hindi ko sinasadya yun. Hindi ko lang talaga nakontrol sarili ko and I want to change that attitude. Pero your mother and father visits my place.”

“Mother?”

“Oo. Nagulat din ako. Sobrang galit nung Mama mo. Nabalitaan nya yata kay Kieffer na nasaktan kita. She came in MY company and in front of MY board members and MY FATHER, she slapped me saying wala akong karapatang saktan ka. At Papa mo, as usual, to convince me na madaliin yung wedding.” parang anlaking kasiyahan nung balita nya about Mom. Muntik na kong maiyak.
