Chapter 966 Stressed Out

Chapter 966 Stressed Out

By the time we reached the Boxing Gym, I stopped being surprised or bothered by the attention thrown at me. Sena, on the other hand, was in a jovial mood as she acted like a tour guide. However, what she’s showcasing was the different reactions of those around us.

For example, when she found a group of younger girls on the other side of the street who stopped in their tracks upon noticing us, she said. “Hey, Ruki. Those girls looked at you. They’re just teasing each other but stopped as soon as they saw you.”

Or that one time when I stopped and helped a housewife trying to cross the street while carrying heavy bags of groceries.

“Nice job, Ruki. But did you notice? She froze for a few seconds before responding to your offer of helping her.”

And lastly, when two girls that looked older than us - perhaps college girls - were surrounded by men trying to pick them up for a date, the two ran and hid behind me to escape from those men. They then said, “Sorry boys, here’s our date.”

Alright, those girls were a bit troublesome because those guys’ animosity fell on my head. But since they already involved me, I just intimidated them.

Well, they’re some of those flies who tried picking up my girls before. That’s why when they finally recognized who’s the guy that ruined their chance to pick up girls, they bowed and apologized to me before running away.

Once they were out of our sight, Sena then looked at the two girls, “Alright onee-san, stop holding to my man.”

Although her eyes remained calm and serene, the two college girls put under her gaze shook and latched off me, intimidated. It could be her boxer’s presence or just her lover power whichever took effect.

Knowing that they couldn’t win against Sena, the two girls thanked me. But before they walked away, they each handed me a strip of paper. Printed on it were their long list of social media handles from Facebook, LINE, Twitter and Instagram.

What assertive women, they’re hoping for me to contact them…

However, that paper didn’t last too long on my palm. Sena took and threw them into the next trash can we passed by.

Yep. The girl realized that I became a chick magnet and it made her silent for the rest of our walk. Her eyes are on the lookout for any other girls to latch onto me.

It’s not like I would entertain those girls. They’re troublesome. And since they’re standing on that street, they’re surely waiting for someone to pick them up. Those flies were just not up to their standards.

Anyway, that’s that.

Stepping foot into the gym, I easily spotted Coach Ayu. When our eyes met, the girl’s brows furrowed for a few seconds. Upon realizing that it was me, she clicked her tongue and walked toward us.

“Coach, you’re back. How was your trip?” Sena asked.

She was absent yesterday for business reasons. So I guess she went outside our city, huh? And most likely, it concerned boxing. Well, her whole life revolved around boxing so that guess might be correct.

“Stop grinning… I know what you’re waiting for.” Coach Ayu returned to the front desk to pick up something. When she returned, she handed a paper bag to Sena. “Here’s your souvenir. Everything you listed.”

“You’re the best, Coach! I love you!” Sena’s grin widened as she excitedly took it before sprinting towards the inner door.

However, as though she realized something, the girl suddenly stopped and turned back. Her eyes focused on me. “Oh, right. Coach Ruki got a haircut and it made him so handsome. Can you protect him from other girls?”

“Sena… You’re aware that I don’t need protection, right?”

“Even so, who knows how many of your students will jump at you?”

“They’re well-behaved, don’t worry. Besides, you’ll be there as well.”

“Ehh… Alright. But still, Coach, I’ll be counting on you!”

Upon saying that, Sena reached in for a kiss before sprinting inside the boxing gym.

As we watched her back disappear inside, I heard Coach Ayu cracking her knuckles. “That girl. I haven’t been strict with her lately. Should I increase the load of her set exercises?”

Although Coach Ayu mumbled it, given that I was just next to her, I clearly heard her voice.

A moment later, she sighed and dispelled her slightly menacing aura directed toward her student.

“Uhm… What should I do?”

“Ugh… Why are you still standing there? Are you not going to follow her?”

Yeah. I should. But because there’s a new influx of gym-goers as well as the enrollees to my program, we’d just be separated again. There’s no chance to be alone inside anymore.

Furthermore, Sena intentionally left me behind. She could’ve dragged me with her but she sprinted as though she was preventing me from coming with her.

Despite how defensive she became against the other girls on the street, she’s comfortable passing me to Coach Ayu.

At least, that’s how I saw it. The girl wouldn’t be that excited about souvenirs alone.

“Well, I’m waiting for you, Coach. Let’s enter together.”

“Why will I? Can’t you see I’m manning this front area?”

“Oh, that? I can see, of course. But aren’t you going to help me with my lesson?”

“You, idiot couple, will most likely be the source of my wrinkles.” Perhaps running out of argument to rebut with, Coach Ayu sighed helplessly.

“Don’t worry, Coach. We both adore you.”

“Yeah, right… I’ve been stressed these past two weeks because of you two.”

“Stressed? Coach, you’re blooming. Can that be a result of being stressed?” I scanned her from top to bottom. Although she’s wearing a gym jacket on top of her sports bra, the zipper was only halfway done. Looking at her like this, she gave off a sense of aesthetic beauty and I could feel myself getting the urge of pulling down that zipper fully to revel at her well-toned navel. Furthermore, although she’s wearing jogging pants, her spats were clearly outlined because of how fit they were around her thighs.

But yeah, she’s blooming. It’s like something happened and she subconsciously started showering her surroundings with her pheromones. And that made me feel attracted to her.

Although she’s the one who initiated those kisses we shared on two occasions, I was having this urge to hold her at this moment.

“Stop eyeing me, pervert.” Around half a minute later, Coach Ayu noticed my eyes ogling her and covered herself up, zipping the jacket up to her neck.

“Is it bad? I’m just pointing out that you don't appear like someone stressed out.”

“… I can take those words from anyone else but not you. Are you even aware of how you put me on this endless rollercoaster?”

Coach Ayu’s shoulders drooped as though she was exhausted. And before I knew it, she started wobbly walking towards the interior of the Boxing Gym, leaving me behind.

She’s not expecting me to answer. She just blurted out her grievance.

Thinking about it, I really did put her in a rather precarious situation. I had her think about her answer… So, if she says she’s stressed out because of me, that’s undeniably true.

Haa… now I’m feeling bad putting her through it… Even if I said that there’s no other choice, it’s still my suggestion that put her in this situation where she had to come up with an answer on what she really wanted to happen between us.
