Stealing Spree

Even with the interruption and our decision to veer off from our original intention, the next few minutes still brought Ayu and me to a satisfying conclusion. I still got my release and Ayu was delighted to finally pay me back for the last time.

And while she was cleaning me up using a tissue after licking it clean, the woman declared that the next time she brought me to her house would be the day when we were going to do it. Additionally, she made me promise that I’ll stay with her for the night.

The first part was doable since I also planned not to keep her hanging like I did with Rae or Shizu. As for the second part, it became a little complicated considering we have to plan it well on my end. That way, it won’t end up conflicting with my future plans with the other girls.

While it’s easier said and done... with a lot of things cropping up lately, it’s still up in the air whether we will have to adjust it in the future.

Other than that, I really have no problem with spending a night with her. I did it with Nao as well during her first time. Although it might be unfair to the others like Nami, Saki, and Hina, the circumstances with them were just stacked against us. They couldn’t just invite me home to stay the night and vice versa. Spending the night at a hotel was also impossible considering they had come up with a reasonable excuse why they have to sleep somewhere else.

Ayu has her own place, similar to Shio. That’s why there’s no problem if I ever decide to spend the night with them.

Anyway, as disappointing as it sounded normally, I guess being interrupted and holding off on going all the way at this moment in time was better for us. As much as our heads became full of our desire for each other, we couldn’t really ignore the world outside of this room.

Being caught once was already bad. If that woman talked to others and blabbed about what she saw, it would be embarrassing and awkward for Ayu. Even if she decided to not mind it, it would be like a stain on her name.

And for sure, given Ayu’s reaction when that happened, she was also aware of those possibilities. The only reason she didn’t voice it out was her lack of desire to shift the blame on me. Or if not that, she knew what I would do... Own it up.

“I’ll go outside first, Ru-kun. I’m going to look for her. I’ll send you a message when the coast is clear.”

“Mhm. If something else happens, message me immediately. I can’t have you handle everything if it’s going to trouble you.”

Upon changing into another set of her sports attire consisting of a sports bra and spats before putting on her tracksuit again, Ayu started making her way to the door.

At the moment, I was still in the middle of changing. Nonetheless, since we already decided what to do regarding the unexpected witness of our intimate moment, she’s just repeating it as a reminder.

In actuality, we both agreed that she could just ignore that woman. But with the possibility of her staking outside to find out who is it that managed to get into her pants, Ayu suggested dealing with the woman.

I mean, even if I discount the possibility that she’ll talk about it with the others, my identity as Sena’s boyfriend isn’t a secret in this boxing gym. The woman isn’t ignorant about it. It will cause controversy if she discovers that I’m also in a relationship with Sena’s coach. Unlike the setup we built in our school, there’s no choice but to keep our relationship under wraps for now.

In the future... we’ll be as brazen as we can be about flaunting it...

“Heh, don’t worry about it and believe in your Ayu... If things go south, I can just knock her down.” Ayu smirked as she closed her hands into a fist before throwing a jab in front of her.

“So, violence is an option, huh?”

“Certainly!”

A brief silence later, we both laughed at that. It’s not an option, of course. Nonetheless, bringing it up released the invisible pressure in both of our minds.

After waving at me and sending a flying kiss, Ayu disappeared from the room.

Around a minute after I finished changing into my training attire, Ayu’s message arrived.

With that, I also exited the room and made my way to where Marika and the rest of the new enrollees are.

“Junior-kun, I find this set of exercises amazing... Is it really fine to do it at my own pace? Will it be helpful?”

“Mhm. The set of exercises that I imparted to all of you is for building up foundation and stamina. As long as you diligently do it without skipping a day, it will show its effects sooner or later... Also, senpai. Mind I remind you to call me Instructor during these sessions?”

Without running into any problems, half of the allotted time had already passed since I started the first session with my new students.

The same as last time, the first thing I did upon introducing them to the course and showing a little bit of a preview of how strong a boxer can be was to impart to them the same set of exercises that I was using.

Afterward, I had them do it in front of me while I roam to check whether they were doing it properly one by one.

And since Marika was among the sixty students, this kind of interaction was inevitable.

As much as I love to dote on her, I have to keep up the appearance of an ‘Instructor’ so that it won’t become a problem in the future. Not everyone will be satisfied with my course at first so if they see me playing favorites right away then they might just quit or lodge a complaint.

Back then, Akane and the others were also careful not to trouble me. Only when we were in direct contact would they try out something with me.

“My... I must have forgotten. Thank you for reminding me, Instructor...” Marika bowed her head, looking a little embarrassed. She might be naïve but she understood that she made a blunder there.

Watching her reaction, I couldn’t help but smile inwardly before stepping forward to do my job as an Instructor by answering her earlier question and fixing her posture. During that time, Marika attentively listened to me as her whole body gushed out of excitement.

Unfortunately, I couldn’t stay around her for too long. She’s not my only student here, after all. Before she could bring up another question, I already moved to the next student and did the same thing – not the doting part but pointing out the errors and answering questions.

When I finished my round and returned to the side where Ayu was also observing and keeping a watchful eye to assist me, the woman nudged my side and spoke in a barely audible voice, “Ru-kun, no matter how you restrained it, you’re too obvious in my eyes there with your senior. And I can say the same to her... That girl is too infatuated with you. The adults probably noticed it already but some of the boys who are also stealing a glance at her might antagonize you if they see her act that familiar when you’re instructing her.”

Yep. There’s the value of having Ayu as an assistant. She’s seeing things that I was failing to see up close.

She’s right on that part with Marika. No matter how much I tried to play it cool, the girl’s natural elegance and presence were truly impossible to be hidden. No matter the case, she’s always going to attract attention.

“There’s no going around it. I’ll just deal with them like how I did it to those five idiots last time if ever they act up. But Ayu, will those housewives continue taking my class? I get it that I enticed Ichihara-san and the others back then as an alternative for them to watch over their children. But today, some enrolled without bringing their children.”

“That’s the power of word of mouth, Ru-kun. Given how successful the first course went, that’s normal. Just continue doing what you do. They’ll have expectations about you, for sure. However, knowing you, you’re someone who isn't underperforming even if you’re pressured. I’ll keep an eye out here so... Go and make this another success.”

With a tap on my back, Ayu channeled her encouragement to me. She’s now smiling from ear to ear, clearly satisfied about everything that happened to us today.

As for the details of finding that woman from earlier, she told me that it’s a success and there’s nothing to worry about anymore. When I tried searching for that woman, I spotted her doing jumping ropes in one corner, fumbling every few seconds. She looked pretty shaken.

Most likely, Ayu really employed another method than just talking about what she witnessed.
