Something Interesting

Yu woke up this morning a little late so he rushed to take a shower, and was in a hurry to go to the simulation room where Doctor Alina was waiting for him.

Alina sighed softly as she stood with her hands folded under her breasts, she shook her head looking at Yu who was hunched over near the entrance, gasping for breath.

"Twenty minutes," said Alina, glancing at the watch on her wrist.

"Just, just a moment," said Yu, who was controlling his breathing so that the tightness in his chest could lessen. "Okay, okay, I'm sorry," he said later.

"Is there any particular reason?"

"No," Yu smirked as he stood up straight with a deeper sigh.

Well, he couldn't possibly say that he had trouble sleeping last night because the image of the mechanic making love to the female attendant on the stairs haunted his mind.

That's ridiculous, he thought.

"This is purely my fault," Yu said. "Perhaps, because during the day I sleep too long so that at night it becomes difficult for me to close my eyes."

"Ah, I see, huh?" Alina nodded. "All right, I'll give you ten minutes."

"Thank you."

Yu then took off his clothes in that room too because he felt it was impossible to do it in another room like in the past days.

Alina cleared her throat to see the man take off his clothes one by one. She decided to occupy herself with all the things on the stainless steel table rather than the thought of having to wander all over the place to see the man's almost naked body.

"Okay, I'm ready," said Yu.

"Alright, please go to that chair!"

Yu, who was now wearing only short and tight underpants, went to a special chair and lay on his back on the chair.

As soon as Alina activated all of the instruments on the special chair via the tablet in her hand, the special instruments hissed softly as certain parts of the device itself pressed against his head, and along Yu's vertebrae.

And followed by fine needles that penetrated Yu's skin at certain points.

Yu frowned slightly to feel the coldness of the devices attached to his head and body, as well as the fine needles piercing his skin.

"Are you calm?" Alina asked, noticing the yellowish liquid in the syringe in her hand.

"What is it?" Yu found something unusual in the doctor's face and body gestures.

"What do you mean?"

Alina then approached Yu after making sure there were no air bubbles in the yellowish liquid. She wiped the area under the elbow crease of Yu's right hand with a cotton swab soaked in alcohol, to sterilize the area before injecting the yellow liquid.

"You're a little different today, Alina."

"Is that so?"

Alina tried to focus on the syringe in her hand.

Yu frowned again as the syringe pierced his hand. Not because of pain, just a little surprised.

"Is it because I'm late?"

"No, don't get me wrong," said Alina as she put the syringe back on the stainless steel table.

"Oh, I see?" Yu took a deep breath. "Or, maybe about my request yesterday towards Mr. Akimura?"

Alina tried to smile while massaging the man's right hand, his shoulder, then his right chest where Yu's heart was behind that chest. Yes, he does have abnormalities regarding the position of his heart compared to humans in general.

"No," said the doctor again. "Mr. Akimura leaves the decision to use the serum or not in your hands."

"Aah, good to hear that."

"Calm down for the next fifteen minutes," said Alina while rubbing the man's right chest.

Yu smiled happily, the doctor's caressing, as well as her gentle massage earlier actually brought about another feeling in Yu.

And then, he tried to calm himself down by closing his eyes.

Yu may feel calm but without him realizing something in his crotch is moving smoothly. All because of what he saw last night, also about Alina's gentle touches just now.

Alina realized that thing. For a moment, her gaze was fixed on the part in Yu's crotch that was starting to rise. She swallowed hard to realize that it was an unusual size.

The beautiful doctor even felt an incitement in her heart to touch the man's private part. Or at least, to see and know firsthand the shape and size.

Alina with all her heart resisted the incitement that suddenly appeared in her.

And luckily, Alina doesn't have to stay glued to something tempting under Yu's underpants. A moment later, Yu's hands and feet seemed to start moving slowly which indicated the man had been in his subconscious.

Alina took a deep breath with a slightly flushed face and a faint smile on the corners of her lips.

Thank goodness, she thought. If Yu realized this, he would ask me to be his date.

"Yu?" Alina stepped closer to the wide and thin screen on Yu's left. "Can you hear me?" she watched the movement of the man's heart rhythm through the monitor screen. His brain wave activity, as well as his blood pressure. "Yu? You are there?"

"H—Hi, Alina, sorry!"

The doctor smiled as she shook her head slightly. "How are you doing there?"

"Yeah, I'm fine."

"What do you see?" Alina asked Yu that but instead, her gaze returned to Yu's crotch. "Hmm, is there anything interesting?"

"Interesting, huh?" Yu smiled widely.

For a moment, Alina was flabbergasted because she thought Yu knew that she was looking at the man's crotch. The next second she let out a soft sigh of relief, all just worrying.

"How's it going, Yu?"

"I'm a little confused," Yu replied. "How to distinguish a Black Hole from other celestial bodies?"

"Aah, so you're near a Black Hole, is that it?"

"Yeah, maybe like that."

"Tell me!"

In his subconscious, Yu was indeed in the vicinity of a very large Black Hole, like a star but seemed to have no surface or bottom in the middle.

"I don't know," said Yu. "Like the sun, but with black and a golden orange glow around it."

Alina smiled at the man's words. "You see anything else around the Black Hole?"

"Well, very much."

"Tell me!"

"Yeah, it looks like what's in front of me right now is indeed a Black Hole."

"Are you sure?"

"I mean," said Yu. "I read an article about this last night."

"Ah, I see, huh?"

"Smaller celestial bodies rotate slowly and are sucked into the black face itself."

Yu witnessed how celestial bodies in various shapes and sizes seemed to be drawn by an enormous and intangible force into the Black Hole. Sucked and disappeared.

"Even dust particles–Oh, gee…!"

"What? What happened?" asked Alina.

"Is it possible that light can also be sucked in?"

"Oh my God," Alina massaged her chest. "You scared me just now, you bastard!"

Yu chuckled, "Sorry, sorry," he said. "But, is that possible?"

"Well, you're right," said Alina. "A Black Hole is capable of sucking in anything, including a light."

"Wow…!"
