A few days earlier, Ai had just finished class and was making her way down to the school entrance to change her shoes before heading to the baseball club.
She was in a great mood, sporting a smile as she reminisced about yesterday's encounter with Ken. It was their first time going home together after practice, yet everything felt so natural.
Ai didn't feel like she had to wear a mask, she could be her true self in front of Ken. He was always respectful, never saying anything inappropriate, nor overstepping his bounds.
While it was true she felt he was holding back a little, it more felt as if he was being respectful rather than deceitful, a welcome change.
'He said that we can head home together every day after practice.'
A beautiful smile blossomed onto her face unknowingly, the sight of which was enough to make any boy stop in their tracks and stare in awe and appreciation.
I feel some blackmail coming on... We finally get to see the reason why Ai has hidden herself away. Next chap coming in hot.
