"Stay as long as you like, I'll be here for a while, too, so let me know if you need anything," Makoto said before one of his students jumped into the pool.
"You're gonna be a great uncle to my future kids," I laughed walking into the pool area where Makoto works.
"Huhhh?! Where did that come from?!" Makoto asked, surprised for the most part.
"It was just a thought I had to say out loud. Don't worry, I'm not planning on kids any time soon," I laughed.
"Good, you need to find a good partner first," Makoto smiled.
"Seems we meet again," the man who looks like a stalker walked up to us.
"Ahhhh, I finally figured out who you are... Ryuji Azuma, isn't it?" I asked, snapping my fingers.
"...yes," Azuma said.
"What are you doing here?" Makoto asked.
"I wanted him to coach me," Haru walked up to us.
"Really?!" Makoto said in a worrisome tone.
"Don't worry, it's nothing official or permanent. I'm not about to drop everything and start working at your college. Relax, just think of these as a few private lessons," Azuma said.
"But... I heard you're a famous coach and you've worked overseas?" Makoto questioned.
"And money? I can pay for lessons," I asked - offered.
"I don't train females," Azuma said.
"Luckily, I'm not seeking to be your trainee. I'm offering for Haru," I said.
"Eh, I'm not worried about the money. You can just buy me dinner or something. I'm not picky as long as it's not mackerel," Azuma said.
"Yeah, alright. Haru, don't worry about the meals. I'll pay for them," I smiled.
"You really don't have to," Haru said.
"Just think of it as an investment into your future. If you two make it official, I'll fund you," I said, shrugging my shoulders.
"But sis..." Makoto said.
"I've got the money for it, it's really not a problem, Mako. Oh, hey. Are you gonna meet at the coffee shop when you're done here?" I asked. Haru walked away to start his training, Azuma after him.
"I don't think I'll be able to," Makoto said.
"No worries, I'll go meet with Kissume," I smiled.
"Okay."
"See you soon!"
"I'm so bored. Everyone is so busy with practice lately, we haven't had any time to hang out," Kissume said with his head on his arms that were on top of the bar counter, "Plus Makoto has his job."
"What am I? Chopped liver?" I pouted, walking to the barstool next to Kissume.
"Of course not! I'm glad to see you!"
"Hey, y/n," Akane said as she held her baby.
"Hi! Hiiiiii little one," I said to both of them.
"College champions are coming up, remember? They can't participate in the All-Japan invitationals unless they can beat the qualifying time," Akane explained.
"I don't think Haru will have any trouble with that though," Kissume said.
"Definitely not now that he's being trained by Azuma," I said.
"The famous coach? The one they were talking about not long ago?" Kissume asked.
"Yep!"
"Ugh! 'Course Asahi is the problem child," Akane pouted, "He acts tough but he's a lot more fragile than he looks."
