By the time we reached the Boxing Gym, I stopped being surprised or bothered by the attention thrown at me. Sena, on the other hand, was in a jovial mood as she acted like a tour guide. However, what she’s showcasing was the different reactions of those around us.
For example, when she found a group of younger girls on the other side of the street who stopped in their tracks upon noticing us, she said. “Hey, Ruki. Those girls looked at you. They’re just teasing each other but stopped as soon as they saw you.”
Or that one time when I stopped and helped a housewife trying to cross the street while carrying heavy bags of groceries.
“Nice job, Ruki. But did you notice? She froze for a few seconds before responding to your offer of helping her.”
