Chapter 90- Akisu’s surprise

Akisu's schedule these days has dramatically changed. 

The boy used to remain awake late at night; playing games and watching movies. Late night snacks were a part of his daily routine and having meals at random times of the day was a common occurrence. 

He usually liked to sleep until seven thirty and take only ten minutes to get prepared for school. Because of that, he didn't brush his teeth properly and sometimes wore an unironed shirt to school. The smell he emanated made people stay away from him.

In the past, he didn't care about their opinion and lived his life in his way.

....only until he didn't meet a certain redhead during the trip to Kyoto.

He met Miku only thrice on that trip, yet he felt so affectionate toward her....so attracted to that single girl that in hopes of meeting her again, he decided to change himself completely.

He knew it was nearly impossible for him to meet Miku again, more so when she hadn't contacted him even once, but still, he had hope. Hope that one day they will cross paths again and the next time Akisu could be confident in himself enough to ask for her number.

Not only has he improved his eating habits and stopped consuming anything after eight in the evening, but Akisu now wakes up early in the morning at five. 

He goes for a run around the society before heading towards the gym which is only five hundred meters away from his house.

'Although he said he would come, I doubt Minoru would ever join the gym... ' Akisu sighed.

Since he was new here, and originally an introvert, it was nearly impossible for him to make any friends at this place. 

The gym was made in a massive hall with four different sections devoted to, muscle building, cardio, combat training area, and cross fit. 

Akisu has prepared himself a chart from the internet and is mostly focusing on the muscle building and cardio section for now.

"Good morning." Greeting the bulky man sitting at the reception desk, Akisu planted his thumb on the biometric scanner to get himself clocked in for today.

The trainer didn't reply to Akisu and lazily laid on his chair like a sloth.

However, suddenly, the trainer hurriedly straightened his back and looked at the person behind Akisu with eager eyes.

"You are here, Miku-chan~Good morning."

Akisu's eyes slightly widened upon hearing that name, even though it was a pretty common name.

Even so, he immediately turned to look behind him...only to find the most beautiful girl standing there and chatting with the trainer.

*Ba* *Dum* *Ba* *Dum*

His heart began to beat like crazy as Akisu hurriedly turned away in a panic and rushed inside the gym.

'What should I do....what should I do?!' Although his heart screamed at him to go and talk to her, his mind said something else.

The way she was talking to the trainer in a friendly manner, it was given that Miku was a regular of this gym and knew many people there. And suddenly if a fatso like him approaches her....there is a chance that her reputation might get shot down.

'It would be bad....' Although he wanted to meet her, he held himself back.

Pulling his hood over his head, he climbed over the cycle and began moving the pedal. 

Since the cardio section was nearest to the entrance he could see the people walking in.

When Miku entered, Akisu was left mesmerized.

She was wearing skin-tight trousers, along with a sleeveless red tee and a loose open jacket over her shoulders. Her hair was tied in a ponytail and her beautiful face shone brightly like a morning sun. 

The yoga pants hugged her figure well and ample breasts seemed pretty profound in the thin t-shirt. She was tall and well-defined. Cuteness along with a tempting body. 

She looks beautiful—he inwardly sighed. 

Many people greeted Miku one after another and she responded to them with a smile. As Akisu thought, Miku was quite popular in this gym.

'She must have been out of town the past few days...' Akisu joined the gym recently yet it was the first time he had seen her.

Quite a miracle it was, in his eyes, to find Miku in the same city and in the same gym where he goes. 

"Ah, Miku-san. Wanna be my partner for today?" Akisu clutched the handle, hearing one of the handsome dudes asking Miku to partner up with him.

But soon, looking at them together, Akisu's grip loosened up.

That guy was tall, dark, and handsome. Someone who suited Miku. Together they looked so perfect that some even began taking their pictures.

Akisu felt all his enthusiasm dimming and the clouds of sadness surrounded him.

'It's the truth...I can never be with her....' Akisu lowered his head; not prepared to see Miku being close to someone else.

Some moments passed, when suddenly, 

"You don't look so happy?"

"Ah!" A familiar voice chimed in his ear as Akisu nearly fell from the other side.

However, she held his hand and supported Akisu.

"Be careful, Aki-kun!"

Akisu hurriedly got down before he looked at the person standing there with her hands placed on her waist in a complaining manner. 

There was no doubt about it.

"M-Miku-san..." 

The frown from her face disappeared as she smiled at him and greeted him, "Long time no see, Aki-kun. Were you deliberately ignoring me just now?"

Akisu widened his eyes before shaking his head, "Such a thing, I would never...." However, he soon yielded, "....y-yeah, I was."

"Fufu~I liked the honest Aki-kun better."

"Fue..." His face heated up hearing that. 

Miku enjoyed the innocent reaction as she inched closer to him and slowly lifted his hood, "Why do you hide such an adorable face?" 

The way she shared her thoughts which seemed nothing but genuine...made it more difficult for him to keep his calm.

"Miku-san...please don't tease me too much." Akisu looked away from her but didn't try to cover his face again.

Miku grinned ear to ear seeing such a reaction before she stepped forward and hugged him.

"Haaah....why are you so adorable, Aki-kun~"

In response to that, Akisu wasn't able to utter a single word.

His whole body was paralyzed upon feeling her supple skin pressed against his. Her womanly fragrance was the only thing he could sniff. 

However, suddenly, the blissful sensation disappeared as Miku hurriedly separated herself and apologized, "I am sorry about that. I must be smelling awful right now because of all the sweat."

With an embarrassed smile, she uttered.

'...you smell really sweet tho....' Naturally, Akisu couldn't say that aloud or he would be regarded as a sniffing pervert.

"Then, Akisu-kun, what are you doing today? Shall we workout together?"

"Huh? I mean I don't mind...but didn't that person ask you first?" Direction his gaze towards the handsome dude who was still glancing in their direction now and then, Akisu asked.

"Doesn't matter. Now that I have my Aki-kun, no one else matters. Now let's gooooooo~"

"Ah!" Akisu yelped as suddenly she hooked her arm with his and pulled Akisu away.

The way she smiled at him. The way she ignored everyone, to be with him. The way she talks to him and even hugs him without feeling ashamed to be seen by others.

....Akisu couldn't help but feel hope in his heart. A hope, that maybe it isn't truly impossible to have this girl as his lover...
