November 16, Before JFAAFJ:

M: Love tama na ba to? *bends over the pool table and poses to make a shot*

R: Ang ali... *stops mid sentence as he turns to look at M, takes a deep breath as he tries to calm himself from the sight of M's green body hugging dress clinging to her slender back, accentuating her bountiful buttocks and exposing her smooth legs* Uhm... Wait, Love. *walks towards M* Sigurado ka bang gusto mong aralin to? Medyo frustrating sa umpisa mag-aral ng billiards.

M: *straightens up and looks at R* Di ba lahat naman ng bagay ganoon, Love? Tuturuan mo ba ako o hindi? Kina Kuya Jose na lang ako papaturo. *pouts*

R: Wag! *panics at an almost missed opportunity* I mean busy pa sila, Love. Nagbibihis. Ako na magtuturo sa'yo.

M: Yey! Thank you, Love. *hugs R's arm* So, paano?

R: Una sa lahat, Love. Pipili ka ng cue stick. Yung tama sa height mo at sa grip mo. *inspects those available and selects one for M* Eto mukhang tama to sa'yo.

M: Di ba maiksi yan, Love? Paano aabot yung bola sa butas? Bakit yung sa'yo mahaba?

R: *freezes, initially shocked by the question*

M: Yung gamit mong cue stick kanina, Love.  Mas mahaba yun.

R: Uhm... Kasi... Ano Love... Mas matangkad ako kaya mahaba yung stick ko.

M: Ah... Nasa height pala yun.

R: Yes, Love. Depende din sa preference ng gagamit pero madalas talaga based sa height. *thinks "Billiards pa din naman ang pinag-uusapan namin di ba?", shakes his head to focus*

M: Okay. So what's next, Master? *giggles*

R: Master ka diyan. *laughs* So,  hahawakan mo na yung stick. Dahil right- handed ka, yung dulo ng stick hahawakan mo sa kanan *positions M's hand, feeling its softness in his palm* tapos yung kaliwang kamay ihahawak mo sa bandang unahan. Ayan. Ganyan. Yung thumb mo sa baba para suporta ng stick tapos itong index finger mo icu-curl mo sa taas. Higpitan mo ang hawak pero dapat smooth pa din na makakadaan yung stick.

M: Hmmm... Okay. Ganito Love? *practices sliding the stick in and out of the loop of her fingers*

R: *bites his lip as he watches, thinks "Billiards pa din to. Billiards. Focus, RJ!" Uhm... Ta... Tama na yan, Love. I mean tama yan, Love. Ngayon pwede ka na tumira ng bola. *arranges some billiard balls and the cue ball on the table* Ayan... So yuyuko ka na, Love. 

M: Like this? *bends over the table, her booty accidentally brushes R's thigh*

R: *jumps back and topples a chair, thinks "Jusko! Menggay! Hirap na hirap na nga ako magpigil eh."*

M: Oh, Love. Okay ka lang? Ingat ka.

R: Okay lang ako, Love. Okay ako.  Sorry. Okay sige. Tuwad ka na. I mean yuko ka na sa table.

M: *shakes her head and giggles* Ikaw talaga, Faulkerson. Ganito di ba?

R: Yes, Love pero dapat yung left arm mo steady yan. Firm. Hindi yan gagalaw yung right arm lang ang gagalaw.

M: Okay, Love. Game? Pwede na ako tumira?

R: Yes, Love. Go.

M: *makes her first shot and misses, pouts* Mali naman, Love eh. 

R: Tama yun. Uy! Wag ka na malungkot. Teka nga. *rearranges the balls and walks behind M* Ganito yan.

M: *bends over the table again and positions her arm* Ganito?

R: *takes a deep breath and tries to calm himself as his knee touches the back of her thigh, bends over M and places his left arm to support hers on the table while he holds her right hand on the end of the stick*

M: Tama na ba to, Love? *turns her face slightly to meet R's gaze,  their lips mere inches from each other*

R: *exhales sharply, whispers* Yes, Love. Tama to. *thinks,  "Gahd! Bakit ba ang bango bango mo lalo tuloy kitang gustong..."*

M: Uhm, Love?

R: Yes Love?

M: I think we should end our lesson muna.

R: Bakit naman, Love? Akala ko gusto mo matuto?

M: Oo nga, Love. Kaso... *whispers* May ibang cue stick atang gustong sumargo. *giggles*

R: *looks down, blushes* Halaaah... Pssst... Down, boy, mamaya na tayo mag-8 ball.

M: *laughs* ❤🎱❤👫❤🙈❤
