Chapter 360 – Developing Physical Strength for the Future
“My leg hurts.”
Hiyori muttered as she went down the stairs of the building.
I decided to take it seriously when she gave me a pouty look, showing that she genuinely didn’t want to go to class.
“It’s because I don’t exercise.”
“What does this have to do with exercise…! “Am I healthy?”
“It’s not a joke, it’s real. I need to build my thigh muscles. “Have you quit going to the gym?”
“Anon.”
“You said you were working out?”
“I was so busy that I forgot.”
“That’s an excuse lazy people make every day.”
“Because you’re not lazy? Come to think of it, you’re good at sports, right?”
“Can not.”
“Don’t lie. You can’t build a body if you don’t exercise. “Teach me that exercise.”
Hmmmm… You’re coming in very boldly.
This is why I took it seriously.
To seize the opportunity to strengthen our relationship even more.
“If you want to make up your mind, come to my house on weekend mornings.”
“Why? “It’s annoying.”
“What kind of exercise are you going to do if you don’t have that much grit? “Even if you run for just three minutes, you’ll get tired and ask to stop.”
“No… It might be close, but it’s too far…!!”
“Do you know my house address?”
“I told you last time that you live down in Nerima Ward.”
“Is that so?”
“Don’t you remember that either? I’m disappointed.”
When did I say that? Even when I look back on my memories, I can’t remember anything…
I think the conversation came up when we were on a date, when I was casually listening to Hiyori’s chatter in the car.
“It’s noisy, and it comes down. “What on earth are you doing there?”
Hiyori stands quietly on the landing of the stairs leading to the hallway.
When she heard my reprimand, she made a shameless face.
“They always make noise if you don’t have anything to say. “I don’t want to go.”
“Class starts soon?”
“I was going to skip it in the first place, but my senior forced me to do it. So, I need to rest.”
“So you’re going there again?”
“Yes.”
“Your mindset is amazing. “I know I’ll get scolded if I don’t come down.”
“Is your senior a teacher?”
“Stop talking nonsense and come down. Hurry.”
When he frowned and motioned for her to come here, Hiyori, with her lips pursed, deliberately and leisurely came down the stairs.
I, who just thought that Hiyori looked like Lenka who had to say it one more time to listen, tried to repeat what she said.
“Senior…”
“I’m talking to you, so please listen to me?”
Hiyori’s words accurately predicted my intentions.
I scratched my cheek with my index finger as if I was embarrassed by that, and stopped trying to touch Hiyori’s stupid hair.
Because doing it occasionally rather than every day will recharge your energy better.
“… I know very well.”
“It’s because you always say the same thing.”
“Not all the time.”
“Is that correct?”
“Let’s say that, and walk quickly.”
Tuk.
I gave Hiyori a very light push on the back after she had come down all the way down the stairs, and she stumbled forward.
An action that is clearly over the top.
I said, laughing out loud in bewilderment.
“Stop acting weird.”
“But it seems like they are escorting criminals. “I feel like I’m going to jail now.”
“It’s an ending that just suits you.”
“Are there no handcuffs?”
Do you want to play like that?
Come to think of it, it could be fun.
Let’s ask Lenka to teach us well.
“Go quickly, dude.”
“Yes. But if I go near your house, are you going to teach me how to exercise?”
“Are you coming?”
“No.”
Even if he says it like that, it seems like he’s secretly interested.
I think we’ll be able to run together sometime soon.
“Then don’t come.”
“Can I go on a weekday evening? “I want to sleep in late on the weekends.”
“Root…”
“Don’t tell me I don’t have grit. “Everyone wants to rest on the weekend.”
Well, that’s true.
I also like to sleep in on weekends, but forcing me to wake up early is too harsh.
“Then do it.”
“All right. “But can’t we just stop by the store for a moment?”
“No.”
“I want to go.”
“Go to recess.”
“Yes…”
It’s no use pretending to be downcast.
It may have worked in the past, but it definitely won’t work now.
After forcing Hiyori to go to her class for not listening to her, I headed to her second-year hallway, thinking that I would have to scold her at some point for making her feel drained in the morning.
**
“Do you like it here?”
When I, who was holding her Chinami from behind and playing with her lower abdomen, asked her in a soft voice, she shook her head once.
“No…?”
“Then here?”
Starting from her lower abdomen, slowly moving up to her abdomen just above her navel.
As I gently stroked that area, I felt Chinami’s body, which had her back against my chest, tremble.
“Oh, no…?”
“Then here?”
This time, near the solar plexus where you can feel the texture of the lower chest.
As soon as her hand reached that point, her entire body went into strength.
“Huh… Oh, no…?”
“Shall we go higher?”
“Oh, that’s not possible… This is the laundry drying room…”
“Does this mean it’s okay anywhere other than the drying room?”
“That’s not what I meant…”
I rested my chin on the top of Chinami’s head, who was very embarrassed, and openly touched her abdomen and waist.
Then Chinami, who even her teeth began to chatter, became restless and placed herself in my hands.
How can human skin be so soft?
I want to go to the lounge right now and sleep while hugging Chinami.
“How is your mother?”
“Yes, four…”
“Please say hi.”
“Okay… Huh…”
Not long after the conversation, a long snort of wind came out of Chinami’s nose.
Looks like he’s feeling better.
At the moment when he was about to raise his hand towards Chinami’s chest,
Rattling.
“Chinami. “On the list of participants for this competition…”
The drying room door opened, and Lenka came in, holding a piece of paper in her hand.
Since all of her laundry was done, she naturally saw me and Chinami.
“On the list…”
Lenka blinked her eyes as she repeated what she said.
Her confused expression, wondering if it’s a dream, is very funny and cute.
I think it’s a bit excessive to do something like that after they all went to a hotel together, but I understand because it’s the first time they’ve openly shown an erotic scene with Chinami in the club room.
“Sickle…!?”
Chinami, seeing Renka with her mouth open, was startled and jumped out of my arms.
Then he walked up to Lenka, snatched the paper from her hand, said that he would check, apologized, and quickly left the drying room.
I hear a running sound, and it looks like he may have run to the break room.
“Why are you interrupting me?”
I reprimanded Lenka in such a shameless tone that I was struck by the sight of her suddenly coming to her senses.
“B-Interruption…? “Are you just saying I’m interrupting you…?”
“No?”
“Woah, this place is a poor room…! “The club activities aren’t even over…!!”
“I often do this to the manager as well. What’s the problem?”
“…”
Lenka’s mouth pursed as she had nothing to say.
He must have realized that my attitude toward him in the club room was stronger than when I treated Chinami.
I said, looking at her like that and shrugging her shoulders.
“Are you jealous?”
“What is he saying now…!”
“No, no. But what is the competition about?”
“Ah… Sports Festival.”
The Sports Festival was a large-scale competition held every summer, similar to Interhigh School.
It looks like they are planning to gradually select personnel and begin special training.
“I don’t have to participate, right?”
“At all. “We will definitely remove those who do not have the will to do it.”
That’s fortunate, but Lenka’s reaction is very disappointing.
He was the first runner-up in the men’s division and even won MVP, so why are they eliminating such a talented person, no matter how unmotivated he is?
You have to persuade them to participate.
In any case, it was true that Hiyori was involved and had no intention of participating in the competition due to being busy with her current life, so I shook my head and thought about it.
“All right. “I’ll just support you.”
“Don’t even cheer.”
I don’t think there’s any need to nitpick like this…
Are you upset because you don’t show any signs of being touched?
I think you will find out if you check.
“Really don’t do it?”
“Uh.”
“Really?”
“…Uh, get your face off…!”
Looking at that expression that says he never wants to talk to someone like you, I think I’m right.
Thinking about that, I looked around.
The sliding window of the drying room is wide open.
When I went there and closed the window, a shocked Lenka asked in a trembling voice.
“W-what are you trying to do…?”
They are doing this even though they know everything.
Maybe you should erase the subtle anticipation in your fearful eyes and say something like that…
Our Lenka, despite her acting ability, is too strong.
When I returned to Lenka in silence and was about to say something, words filled with embarrassment came out of her mouth.
“Candy… Shouldn’t you give it first…”
I answered, holding back the laughter that was about to burst out.
“I didn’t bring it today.”
“Then… Get out. “I came here to get that, but they said it wasn’t there, so that’s it.”
“Where are you going?”
“… I’ll just go.”
Lenka, with her snort snorting, turned her body around and walked out of her drying room.
I guess he’s acting like that because he got caught in my feelings and got stabbed for no reason.
In the end, was only the skinship with Chinami canceled due to Lenka’s interference?
If this happens, I will have no choice but to slightly increase the size of the plug as punishment.
I, who was working as her manager and looking forward to an upcoming memorable time with Lenka, went into the dressing room and checked my phone when her club activities were over.
[Is it okay tonight too?]
The message Hiyori sent arrived an hour ago.
You’re talking about the exercise you did in the morning.
I can’t let Hiyori, who has great drive, disappoint.
It was something I equally welcomed, so I responded without much hesitation.
[Okay.]
