Chapter 45: Am I Really Fighting Against Eun-Soon? (Part 3)

"Ah…ah..."

Jong-woo howled in pain as he clutched the side of his face with both hands. I guess he didn't want to show me how much pain he was in because he turned away from me.

"Are you okay?" I asked with real concern. Of course it isn't because I was worried for him. I just didn't want the sparring match to end so quickly.

"Oh…haha…yes..hahaha!"

Once he could get his face under control, he turned to look at me. Then again, the side of his face was so swollen, it looked like a sack was growing on the side of his face.

"It doesn't look okay."

"Really, I'm fine. Your kicks sure are strong though."

Jong-woo smiled as if nothing was wrong. I wanted to show him a mirror, but then I was afraid that would really make him want to stop.

"Then, should we keep going?"

I clenched my fists and saw Jong-woo visibly gulp. This time, he stood in proper form.

"Come at me."

"Okay," I said with a smile. Then, I brought my fist forward.

Jab. Jab. Jab. Right hook, left uppercut.
