Chapter 52 Timing Is Important
Edited by: Kanaa-senpai
Massage Day 3
As he’d mentioned the day before, Haruto arrived at the swim club an hour late.
He found Rin just as she was about to dive into the pool.
Splash.
She seemed to be practicing her dives.
When Haruto approached, Rin noticed him and climbed out of the pool.
”Sorry I’m late.”
”It’s totally fine~”
This was the second time he’d seen Rin walking with water droplets glistening on her skin.
Haruto couldn’t help but admire her graceful presence.
”Shall we head to the club room?”
”Ah, yes! That’s right.”
Rin walked off with a slight sway, and Haruto followed closely.
But when he caught sight of her backside, he paused for a moment.
(Her competitive swimsuit is so well-fitted!)
Rin had been practicing dives until Haruto arrived,
and her swimsuit clung beautifully to her figure.
(It’s truly impressive—a testament to her dedication!)
On the first day, he’d focused on her comfort during the massage.
On the second day, they’d had a productive session with occasional interruptions.
At least on the third day, he was greeted by her professional swimsuit.
(I’m grateful for this opportunity to help her!)
Appreciating the sight of her focused demeanor,
the two arrived at the club room.
”Hey, by the way, where is Sayaka-senpai?”
”Sayaka has the day off today.”
Massage Day 3 alone with Rin in the club room.
Haruto was determined to ensure her muscles were fully relaxed for her upcoming practice.
”Shall we get started?”
”Yeah, can I take off the swimsuit for comfort?”
”Yes, that’s fine.”
Rin turned her back to Haruto and adjusted her competitive swimsuit to her abdomen.
Already knowing she was prepared, Haruto focused solely on the massage.
(I just want to ensure her muscles are ready for practice.)
The swimsuit remained fitted, but Haruto’s attention was entirely on his task.
He stretched his arms fully to massage Rin’s back, maintaining a professional distance.
”Your shoulders are much better, so just massaging your back should be fine today.”
”Can I start practicing today? Or should I wait until tomorrow?”
”To be safe, let’s start from tomorrow.”
”Hmm, I want to practice quickly, but it’s gotten so much better now.”
Haruto decided to focus only on her back today to ensure her comfort.
In reality, she could have started practicing right away, but it felt more natural to wait until tomorrow.
Haruto carefully massaged her, ensuring every stroke was soothing.
This marked the end of the 3-day massage sessions.
”Alright! The massage is finished!”
”Phew, thank you!”
Rin, who had been lying face down, sat up.
She realized something.
”Ah!!…”
”Huh? What happened?”
”Nothing, it’s fine.”
Saying this, Rin hurriedly adjusted her swimsuit.
Her face, when she turned around, looked slightly flushed.
”Are you really okay?”
”I’m fine! I’m fine! More importantly, thank you for these 3 days! I have to do something to thank you.”
”No, no, you don’t need to thank me. It was my pleasure to help.”
(I’m just glad she’s feeling better.)
Rin said she would properly thank him after the tournament and then returned to her practice.
(I wonder why Rin was in such a hurry?)
Actually, the protective covers she’d applied before practice had absorbed moisture from the dive practice
and had already lost their adhesive power.
By the time Rin had adjusted her swimsuit, they had come loose.
When she’d turned face down, they’d peeled off.
In other words, if Haruto had massaged the front like he had the day before,
he might have noticed the covers were loose.
For Haruto, it was simply a case of focusing on his task.
But sometimes, life just works out that way.
