Chapter 2460 A Little Park Date

The lesson ended without a hitch and I got invited by some of the mothers for a celebratory dinner tomorrow which... I had to decline. Obviously.

I don't have time to spare for it and it doesn't sound right. Although not everyone, there are some among those invitations hinting at a different idea than just a friendly, celebratory dinner for finishing the 10-lesson course. Still, I made sure to act grateful for their offer and promised to make it up to them some other time.

That allowed me to extricate myself from the situation without causing any waves. I had to admit, though, that it was always flattering to be desired by these women. If it was the old me, I'd probably not hesitate to dig in because my desire to steal someone would be properly sated with them.

Unfortunately, it was all in the past already. I'd rather spend my time with my girls now. Or do something productive?

Well, if there's merit in making connections with them, I just needed to maintain what we already had as their instructor. And if they need my help, I'll see if I can provide assistance.

The same as the previous times, with the lesson over, we convened inside Ayu's office where... I more or less pampered the three of them before and after discussions about the job.

Marika mentioned about Ichihara-san bringing Koharu tomorrow since her husband already advised her not to continue inviting me to their home for the lesson. @@@@

As for whether they're going back here to the gym or another setting like our house, Ichihara-san never mentioned it.

At the very least, it's more likely the former. Ichihara-san was still a member of the gym, after all. It'll be a more convenient setting as well than our house with only a few pieces of equipment related to boxing.

After taking another shower to wash off our sweat and changing out of our training attire, I left the gym with Marika and Sena.

As always, Ayu was too stubborn to go home early even though Hisa-jii wouldn't really mind her clocking out early. I could've stayed with her and waited but with Sena and Marika also with me, I just decided to return later.

"So, where do you want to go?" I asked Marika who was already clinging to my left. On the other side of the street, I could see the black car of her guards tailing us already.

"Uhm... Anywhere with you?" She answered with an innocent smile and sparkling eyes.

But before I could reply, Sena, who was clinging to my right, interjected, "Come on, Marika. What did I tell you? Your innocent smile can only work with Ruki a few times."

Marika pouted, looking a little bit helpless. "But Sena, I just want to spend more time with Ruki-kun before going home."

Sena grinned while shaking her head, "I know that's what you want but Marika, won't it be better to add some adventure when you're going out with him? For example, when I first went out with Ruki, he brought me to a park. We played hide and seek like we were back in kindergarten. A police officer came and scolded us though."

Ending that with a mischievous giggle, Sena just recalled one of our earliest dates, way before I stole her completely. Nonetheless, It remained a fond memory. But the police part was because she kept jumping on the slide as she ran away from me.

The hide-and-seek changed into tag because she's always caught within the first thirty seconds.

"Boo! Not enough. I want a kiss too!"

"Now, that's being greedy, Sena." I chuckled, watching as they both balanced themselves on the see-saw, their laughter echoing through the quiet park.

I stood in the middle, watching them as they rose and fell alternately.

Of course, for Sena, this was a piece of cake with how athletic she was. But Marika immediately felt dizzy after being flung up high a few times.

"Marika, are you okay?" I couldn't help but laugh as she held onto her stomach, looking slightly green.

"I-I'm fine," She assured, her voice wobbly. "It's just... I've never felt like this before. It's... thrilling!"

After saying that, she looked around and pointed at another piece of playground equipment. "Ruki-kun, I also want to try that swing! Push us!"

"Girl, you might go home nauseous," Sena warned with a smirk as she gracefully hopped off the see-saw.

"But it is fun! I always see them on TV and wonder what it feels like!" Marika exclaimed. She was indeed living the childhood she'd never had before.

"Alright, alright. You're the one who suggested this, Sena. Let's give her a fond memory to remember."

"As long as you kiss us after."

"You keep asking for kisses, was what we did earlier not enough?"

"We're insatiable. Especially when it comes to you, am I right, Marika?"

"Yes! I also like a kiss, Ruki-kun." Marika giggled as she stumbled her way to the swings, her guards watching from afar. They're probably also worried that the usually dignified lady was acting like a playful young girl in a children's park.

In any case, can I even turn them down? Of course not.

I walked over to them and helped them both sit on the swing before doing my duty of pushing them. It was a simple pleasure, to see them laugh and have fun.

Really, this kind of moment was something we all needed. Just a pure sense of relaxation and bliss, away from anything else.

With this, we spent close to an hour before Marika eventually collapsed in my arms, her energy drained from all the running and giggling she did. Sena was fine, of course. Her stamina was close to mine, after all. In any case, she pretended to be exhausted too.

Because of that, I brought them both to the bench, comforting and pampering them as they caught their breath.
