"Hi, Nice to meet you. My name's Yuito Fujita." I continued, "Now, how about you try it."
I wanted her to practice on me instead of letting her practiy alone in the empty classroom.
"You can try as many times as you want." I said and for a moment...
I think I saw her eyes shaking.
She paused and stood still like a statue. There was no visible emotions in her eyes and she just stared at me in absolute stoicism.
I also copied her. But my expression was not stoic like hers, instead I just looked like I couldn't be bothered with anything in the world.
It was quiet for a long long time before her lips parted and she - with an absolute straight face -said to me,
"Hi-i. Nice to meet you too." her voice was so quiet I was afraid it would evaporate before it even reaches me.
But somehow, someway, her low voice managed to travel in the empty room and reach my ears. Her voce penetrated my ears and they buzz pleasantly to her voice.
It was the strangest thing, how much emotions were contained in her voice. I didn't knew words could carry that much emotion.
It was as if everything she lacked in expressing herself through her body, she made up for it with her voice.
"ai, m Shouko kOMi." her voice couldn't last anymore so the last part of what she said was distorted and small.
But she didn't look affected nor embarrassed, she just stares with her purple eyes which probably held emotions that I still couldn't yet decipher.
An awkward silence was eager to occupy the space when we just stood there in the empty room, facing each other like two cowboys having a stare down.
Well, fuck.
I should have thought this through before I decided to act all main character and confront her. Now I feel like an idiot.
I quickly racked my mind on what topic I should bring up next. Something simple and interesting.
"It's a nice weather we have today." I said, actually the weather today was not really good. But I couldn't take back the words I had said.
Komi took her sweet time and just stood still in her place. I took the time to observe her, trying my hardest to read her.
She must have some way of expressing herself. Some way I could understand her. The author told me that the main character of her story could understand her.
So I tried. I studied every detail of her, from the top of her head to the tip of her shoes.
But nothing.
She was just perfectly still. Like a photograph.
While I was busy in my thoughts, Komi finally parted her lips and decided a minute later was the perfect time to reply.
"Yes." she said.
oooookaaaayyy...
That is something impossible to work with. What was I suppose to say next? Affirm her yes by saying yes?
I cringed at the awkward atmosphere and decided it was enough for today. I couldn't take it anymore.
"Okay.."
"See you tomorrow then, bye." I said and turned around and leave the room. But before I exited, I turned back and saw her waving at me.
(Thank you)
She again whispered something but I couldn't hear it. So I just nodded as if I heard what she said and leave the school.
As I walked on the road which was slowly leading me to my home, I couldn't help but get pissed at the author. Because he was laughing at me.
{Hahahahahaha.}
He wouldn't stop, and from the sound of his laughter, it doesn't seem like he would stop anytime soon. Rather, it seemed like he found the situation funnier and funnier,
I didn't react nor retort though. I didn't want to give him the satisfaction.
And soon after, his laughter died down.
{That was probably the most anticlimactic meeting between characters ever.} the author was wheezing and catching his breath.
'What was I suppose to do? She was just too awkward!!'
{Of course she is. That's the whole point of her. But you also totally suck, I guess you didn't have the ability to read the room like Tadano.} he said and I could still feel the smile in his words.
'Fuck you, everyone's life is not written by an amazing romance author who could make every interaction with a girl magical.' I said.
{ I agree but this one also has a unique charm and besides..} he said and paused, holding his laugh.
{Now I know what happens when an introvert and someone with crippling social anxiety meet.}
I groaned, I knew I shouldn't but I couldn't help but ask, 'What happened?'
{YES!!!} the author screamed and laughed at me again.
'Not funny dude. You have tumor, not humor.' I said and quicken my pace.
I was nearly halfway home before I saw a funny sign on the side of the road. I remembered that this was the exact place I had reached before I turned around to get my lunch box again before.
..
Wait...
My lunch box.
"You have to be kidding me.." I muttered in disblief.
I forgot my lunch box again.

[The next day]
"It's been so long since I jerked off..." I said while staring at the ceiling while laying on my back on the ground.
It was early in the morning and I had just finished an intense workout session while also training my breathing the whole time.
The way I trained was, I would hold my breath most of the time while exercising and would allow myself only one breath at a time.
This caused my lungs to adapt and take in as much oxygen as it possibly could during that one breath. Thus, strengthening my lungs and made it more efficient at taking in oxygen in one breath.
It made no sense at all biologically but it works with my status and skills. I could feel myself improving.
[Skill :-
Breathing technique : Grandmaster.]
Now returning to my previous statement. Yes, it was true.
It has been a long time since I jerked off.
{I am telling you, just go for it. No one's stopping you.} the author said, extremely amused.
No way in hell am I jerking off with him around. Just imagining myself jerking off from a 3rd perspective send a shiver of pure sham in in my spine.
{It's not like hundreds of people are going to read about you jerking off anyways.}
'Yeah, I am definitely never jerking off again. '
Which sucks because I am a hormonal teenager and I am pretty sure my incubus race made it way worse.
If this goes on like this I didn't know if it would affect me.
'Hope this doesn't lead me into any trouble.' I thought to myself, a bit worried because I was living with a hot milf.
'No use worrying about it too much.' I told myself before stopping my train of thoughts.
My rest is over. It's time to grind again.
"Well, time to get back to training!!!" I screamed and hype myself up.
I got up from the ground and stood in the squatting rack where a bar with 600 kg of weight was already set up.
I got the bar on my back and relaxed all my muscles. Then like a vacuum, I took a deep breath, filling my lungs with huge amounts of air.
"Lightweight."
I held my breath and began squatting with the 600 kg bar pressed on my back. My legs struggled to resist gravity but I was able to do 10 reps before I put the bar back on the rack.
I expelled a huge amount of air and took a few seconds to regain my breath before I sucked in the air again and did another rep of 10 while holding my breath.
I needed to be extremely careful else I would end up with a brain damage or something.
It was a dangerous process.
But I was making huge progress with my training. Something had ignited in me once again during the Championship and I felt like I finally had a goal again.
My training worked better than ever and I had never been so determined to get stronger.

I finally finished and with sweat dripping down my body I went to the corner of the room where I put the water bottle and towel.
I went there and slumped on the ground. Taking the water, I drank it with evident need before I finally released a content sigh.
"I love this feeling."
Then I took my phone which was laying on the ground and switched it on to check the notifications.
It was early in the morning and I still haven't check my phone and when I looked at one of the notification, my brows knitted in disbelief.
It was a Email from someone named....
"Joe Rogan?" I muttered in disbelief.
