FLOWER

CHAPTER 9.5

The sister approaches Alexander and I approach Lian. He smiles mischievously when he sees me. I must remember the video shown to me by Asher. Nothing more. No other thoughts. Regarding his appearance. Eyes. Mouth. It's going to be hard. I can do it.

- Warm up and see what you remember.

- By what right? - Nasturtia asks furiously.

- You have a new trainer, so keep an eye on him. - Lian looks at her with a challenge in her eyes. She finally snorts and turns to Alexander.

Performs all acquired skills carefully. I put my whole self into them. At least I'm trying. I'm distracted by the sorcerer's presence so close. And all his attention was on me. But this is a boxing lesson I'm paying for. He's here for the money, not for me. I repeat it in my mind like a mantra.

- You stand too narrow, your hands are too low.

I'm improving. The wizard doesn't take his eyes off me even for a second. My skin is already slowly burning from its intensity. It's becoming more and more difficult for me to follow orders.

- Say it again, whatever it is.

I tense up. I repeat. Sweat trickles down my neck. I'm exhausted. I try to focus on the movement he is making. Step by step. And not on my handsome trainer. The wizard smiles mischievously. As if he knows about my internal battle with him in the main role.

- The technique is lagging today and I'm crying in the corner. - He comes to me. -Do it slower. It will show you the errors.

I do this. And he makes corrections to my movement.

- Once again at the same pace. - Doing it. - Somehow you don't have these types of problems with Alexander.

- I'm just having a bad day.

- I doubt it. Next time, focus on the movement, not on me.- The wizard comes to me and whispers in my ear. - I won't escape you anywhere. - Hot breath hits the back of my neck.

How clever. I don't even turn my eyes towards him unless I have to. It promises to be a tiring experience. And that wasn't even halfway through

- Technically good. Now we need to work on speed a bit. You're moving too slowly.

- You keep correcting Róża. It wasn't going that bad for me at all. - Nasturcja interjects, offended.

- If you mean staring at Alexander and standing still. So you did it very well. - He doesn't even look at her. But the sister already leaves Alexander alone.

- That's all I remembered. I've sweated seven sweats because of you.

- Do you like me or what?

- Ooo! You've gone crazy with your imagination. - Nasturcja's ears turn red with anger.

- How else can you explain that you keep asking me questions? You draw my attention to yourself.

- You won't hear a word from me again.

- However, they still reach my ears.

- Asshole!

- Nasa, don't try, you don't have a chance with me. - As he says this, he looks into my eyes.

- Ten push-ups.

Alexander says to my sister in a stern tone. His hands are folded across his chest. The sister turns her head towards the voice. The blonde man looks straight into her rebellious eyes with a reprimanding look.

- You against me. - He hisses. The sister stamps her foot furiously. - I won't allow myself to be treated like this.

- I'm warning you right now, I don't want you back. And besides, I have someone to train. - Lian points her index finger at me. - Don't move from here!

- You're too comfortable, it's time to change that. - My sister is coming to us. And the wizard turns to her.

- You're ruining my pick-up line.

- Who are you supposed to pick up on? The room is empty.

- You're not nice to your sister.

- Oh, knock the bullshit out of your head.

- The gardener's dog will not take it himself or give it to someone else.

- I inform you, your efforts are in vain.

- You have the least say in this matter.

- You're wrong.

- Alex, your student is ruining my classes. Take her. - Lian looks at his buddy reproachfully.

- In case you haven't noticed she doesn't listen to me. You will probably have to go back to the previous arrangement. You can't break up. - Lian sighs. He looks sternly at the culprit.

- NASA ten push-ups now. No more slacking off. - Snorts offended. - Otherwise, I'll go back to Róża. - She quickly falls to the ground and follows the command.

And so I go to Alexander, who looks at my sister's ass for a while. Sighing, he looks at me. Am I the only one who enjoys such an exchange? I am already participating in the lesson without distraction. I feel lighter and more relaxed.

The three of us go to the exit. Alexander gets at the front desk to discuss something with Mr Caiuby. I'm walking next to the sorcerer. My sister prefers to glare at him three steps behind us. It makes me want to laugh. How I turn towards her. Lian opens the door for me. He lets me through. I thank him. I'm passing. Meanwhile, behind me.

- A boor, a simpleton and an asshole. - I hear it, I turn around.

Nasturtium opened the door for herself. Lian was right behind me. He speaks towards her with a mischievous smile.

- You shouldn't be so critical of yourself. - Then he looks at me. - See you later, Róża. Don't bring that ball and chain next time. - He says as he leaves.

- No worries, I'll nudge myself. You can sleep soundly. - She gives him her best murderous glare. - What an idiot. He was under the illusion that, he had a chance with you.

- He's making fun of you. Don't exaggerate Nasa. - It was time to evacuate as far away from his sister as possible.

- I'll give you Nas. Say it again. - Very, very quickly.

- Róża, help you with this crazy woman. - Lian shouts.

- You forgot. We said goodbye after all. - She answers him.

- Thanks, I can handle her.

She turns his furious gaze on me. It's time to break the speed of light. I won't get away with it now. I quickly reach the bike before her hands can even touch me. Maybe when he gets a little tired he'll cool down.
