章 88: Swordsmanship Lesson (2)

(From Blue's Perspective)

I did not think Dem would be teaching me on the first day. I thought I would not be able to focus. Whenever he was near me, it always felt like everything else was gone and it was just him and I. I would get flustered for nothing in particular and could not focus on anything. It felt like high school shoujo romance manga. 

And I was proved right and wrong at the same time. When he was right behind me, holding the sword over my hands, I felt like my heart would burst. No matter how much time we spent together or how many times our bodies met each other, I would always get flustered near him. But when he started to talk about techniques, I truly did not get flustered anymore. Rather, I was more determined to focus on his words and moves. 

"Straighten your back, darling, and don't tighten your grip too much," he said from afar as I was swinging the wooden swords as he told me.
