Warmth And Coldness

Chapter 20

I stepped in front of a building. Looking at the large sign of two Pointe shoes

I entered and saw a few girls doing their footwork routine. My eyes connected with Madam Lilia. She crossed her arms and rose her brow

"What brings you here?" she asked (they whole conversation is spoken in Russian language I'm just tired copy pasting in Google translate)

"Uhmmm I want to apologize" I said with my head hung low

"I will forgive you in one condition if you have one session with me" she said my eyes widen

The girls left the dance room so I was left alone with her. She gave me a pair of Pointe shoes that was perfect size for me

"Have you ever practiced but the looks like it, apparently not" she spoke while eyeing me up and down

I changed into proper ballet attire for practice. While I wore my Pointe shoes. I wasn't used to it so I stretched and worn it out for a few minutes

I did warm ups and then saw Madam Lilia

"Do you still remember your routine" she asked

I nodded my head. I excacuted my routine horribly. I internally cursed myself for messing a few spins

"Well you have become rusty if only you didn't quit"

"I don't want to quit anymore" I said while I sat on the floor rubbing my crooked feet from the pressure of my ballet shoes

"Then you shall practice under my circumstance. Same time right here" she instructed I simply nodded my head

"I will, I definitely won't be tardy" I stated

"That's more like it and increase your posture a bit your out of balance" she pointed out

"Right"

For days I helped Emiko with being a manger and getting on time for practice

I simply help Emiko with refilling the drinks and the towels. Then I would leave halfway in practice to go to my own practice

In ballet Madam Lilia had been strict to her other students but gentle with me which earned a few glares from the girls

I even get home late

"Hey I haven't seen Yuki San anymore" Inouka said while pouting

"Emiko Chan is handling us alone" Tora said some how feeling guilty for their manager in training

"Yuki stills help with refilling our bottles and let Emiko handle with distributing is to us" Kenma defended

"Oh my aunt had been training her" Lev said while eating his Yakisoba bread

"Kuroo did she tell you anything?" Kai asked glancing at the rooster head boy

"Yeah she told me to not tell anyone" he responded with a grin

"She didn't tell you, didn't she?" Kenma asked while fiddling with his game

"Yes" Kuroo sighed

"Relationship problems! Sucks" Yaku yelled behind him

"We're not breaking up!" Kuroo reassured himself

He then stood up and started walking

"I'll prove to you!!" Kuroo yelled while looking at the others but he accidentally hit a pole while he winced in pain

Yaku was already dying losing his lungs in the process so did Kenma which was a rare sight

~

He arrived at her apartment and opened the window to her room. Then he saw her wincing in pain

"Yukio?" he called out she flinched at his voice. I stared at Kuroo who was now in front of me. I immediately hid my crooked feet away from his vision

"It looks horrible on the inside right?" I spoke

"No it doesn't" he comforted

"Your only saying it to make me feel better" I glared at him he switch position facing towards me

"It looks like your battle scars. It looks cool" he said while gently holding my foot

I blushed at his comment

"I hope I can see you dance soon" he stated then kissed my cheek. My heart speeden I covered my face and lightly kicked him

"I listened to what you said. I wanted to overcome my fears" I whispered

"I'm already proud of you Yuki"

Yuki fainted in embarrassment and Kuroo took photos for future purposes

~

I was eating my breakfast. Kuroo had to go home yesterday since he had to pack for the last training camp before the spring tournament starts

"Yuki~ Can you come here for a sec" my dad asked I walked to the living room and saw him holding a box

"What's that? What is the occasion? Is it my birthday already? " I asked him but he simply shook his head

"Open it yourself" he gave it to me

I opened it and saw skates. Figure Skates shoes I pressed my hands at my lips

"Dad?"

"I can't afford you wearing just rentals. They said those stuff stinks badly" he grinned

"How did you know I wanted to continue?" I asked him

"I'm just a great dad that's all" he rubbed his nose hiding the smile that was forming my lips. The truth is he heard the conversation she had with Kuroo. So he immediately bought one

"Thank you" I said

"Your welcome" he patted the top of my head

"Just make sure you don't hurt yourself again" he reminded me

"I won't, I promise to work hard"

"Is it because of Kuroo?" he asked but my face heated up

"Noooooooo" I denied but it was clearly seen by him since he knows his daughter

"I will support you no matter what. I'm even a good father in law for Kuroo" he hugged me I just lay my head down his shoulder

"Daad!!"

"What? You still not thinking of marrying him? You guys look good together. I already have your blessings" he gave me a thumbs up

My face heated up

"It's too early for that!"

"You should always think about your future" he teased

"Daaaaaad!!"
