As the days passed, Sunny also began to keep up with his physical growth along with his peers.

However, he was still not strong enough to confront the bullies. He wanted to get a little stronger, but he didn't know who to consult. Kiyo looks strong too...

So, after IT class, Sunny happened to ask Kiyo.

"You look good, Kiyo..."

"What?"

"No... I mean..." - Sunny hesitated, trying to come up with what he was going to say. "Well... do you often go to practice?"

Originally, Kiyo was strong because he had to undergo training as an assassin, but he couldn't say it clearly.

"Yeah... I train a lot too."

"So... I'd love to, but I don't have many conditions..."

Kiyo lowered his voice:

"Doesn't this school have some practice equipment?"

Sunny knew that, but if he practiced alone in school, someone would definitely come and disrupt him.

He boldly looked Kiyo straight in the eye and said:

"Isn't it more fun when you practice with me?"

Kiyo caught that look, wiped the sweat from the bridge of his nose, and replied:

"Yeah, that's right. Let's go to the field to practice this afternoon."

Sunny nodded.

In the afternoon, they had arrived before the scheduled time. Both were wearing exercise clothes and sneakers for ease of activity.

"Okay Sunny, let's warm up before practice."

"How?"

"Rotate the wrist and ankle joints. Like this."

Sunny followed Kiyo.

"Next is the shoulder joint."

They warm up until they run out of legs.

Sunny now feels like his body has stretched a lot. Meanwhile, Kiyo was thinking about what practice to give Sunny first.

Recalling the training sessions, maybe he should let Sunny do some simple exercises first.

"Okay Sunny. Now I'm going to teach you simple exercises, just for starters. Pay attention."

Kiyo quickly changed into another pose, one move at a time. Neither too fast nor too slow, steadily.

Sunny watched, noticing a single movement. His eyes didn't leave Kiyo.

Apparently, the more he looked, the more he saw Kiyo as beautiful in his eyes.

Kiyo stopped after a while modeling for Sunny.

"It's done. Now you do it."

But Sunny said:

"I remember it all."

"...Really?" - Kiyo was stunned by Sunny's quick memory.

"But I'll practice to make sure."

Once again, he observed all of Kiyo's gestures and actions, and he imitated them to remember them well.

When he did this part well, Kiyo changed to the next practice.

It stays like that until the evening, excluding the break time. Both of them were tired, so they decided to go home quickly.

But they went to Sunny's house.

It's a three-story house that looks a bit old. There are apple trees and vines on both sides of the house, both of which have not yet produced fruit.

The entrance was paved with stones that Kiyo wasn't sure about, but there was more grass in the middle.

"Is this your house?" - Kiyo asked surprised.

"Yeah." - Sunny got off the bike and Kiyo gave it back to him. But Sunny said:

"Just use it and go home. It's Sunday tomorrow."

"But what if your parents find out-"

Sunny didn't let him say the sentence:

"They rarely go home..."

Suddenly recalling the story Sunny told about his family, Kiyo just said:

"Okay. I'll give it back tomorrow. See ya."

"Yes, be careful." - Sunny waved to him.

Kiyo jumped on the bike and returned home when it was already dark.
