Only You.

CHAPTER EIGHTY EIGHT

60, 61, 62, 63, 64...' Juri counted in her mind, busy doing push ups in a handstand position, sweat trailed down her neck as she lowered herself and brought herself back up.

"Juri." Kaguya called, standing a bit away from her with a bottle and a towel in her hand.

Juri dropped herself down gracefully, her chest rising and falling as she panted, going over to Kaguya, she took the towel and wiped her face with it, she kept it around her neck and she took the bottle with a thanks.

"After you are done, your grandmother wants you to make your way up." Kaguya informed, following her towards the bathing quarters that was close by.

"Okay." She nodded.

Getting towards the shower section, she stripped herself of her clothes, she took the soap that fancied her out of the selection that was there.

Scrubbing the sweat off of her, she washed herself off, and after a while, she stepped out with a towel wrapped around.

Grabbing the coco butter from the shelf, she lathered it onto her skin, going over her scars, which she was still pretty sour about.

It was much harder to deal with these permanent scars, and it was even harder to come to terms with herself that they are permanent.

But she managed to put through, and now she wasn't as negative about it as she was a couple of years ago.

She stared at herself in the mirror for a moment, securing the strap of her bra on her shoulder, she tilted her head slightly.

There truly was a lot of progress with building her body back up and she was content about that.

Despite it being dark out, it was still pretty warm so she just wore her grey, Nike tracksuit bottoms, paired with a white t shirt, and her jacket over it.

Picking her afro out lightly with a pick comb, she put it back into her pocket and followed Kaguya who was making her way out.

"I don't look too muscular now do I?" She asked suddenly, which caused Kaguya to frown her brows at her in puzzlement.

"Why do you ask?" Kaguya questioned.

"I don't know, I've been trying to balance out looking thick, slim and fit at the same time." She said, lifting up her shirt and looking down at her stomach, where she could see slight abs forming.

Naturally it should've formed over the 5 years of harsh training Juri was undergoing but because she would also eat a bunch of food and slack off, it didn't.

Not that she minded.

In fact she was more than fine with what she had half arsedlly worked towards.

"My thighs aren't working with me though, they just look thick as always, I think they got thicker." Juri mumbled.

"Where is this conversation going?" Kaguya sighed.

"Hey, hey, I'm trying to express my concerns of ending up looking muscular like Ray or Tobi." She said, causing Kaguya to snort out at this.

"What about looking muscular?" Ray questioned with an offended look as he joined them from the hallway to the left.

"Mn, nothing." She chuckled with a cheeky grin.

"I must return to my duties, call me whenever." Kaguya said.

"Oh, alright, bye-" Juri turned to her side just to see she wasn't there anymore.

"I swear Kaguya is a ninja or some shit." Ray said in awe as he glanced around.
