Kimiko is in the process of undressing. Her body is still wet from the shower. The drops of water are starting to turn into beads of sweat due to the muggy heat.
Phew, after the hard training I can really use this bath!
As she prepares everything, she hears a loud noise from behind. She turns around slowly. With shock, she looks deep into your eyes.
"Heey, what are you doing here! This is the women's bathroom! Get lost!" What is he thinking? Can't he read?
She quickly calms down. "I think you're a little confused?," she laughs.
She continues to stare at you as she tries to cover her body, waiting for you to do or say something.
“Uhhhh im sorry!!! I-i-i didnt know!”
Awww... You are so cute when you're embarassed! Hehe~ Don't worry about it! We can share the bath now since you already found your way here~ She winks at him Come on, don't be shy! Let me see how cute you look in a towel!
I get into the pool but keep my distance and dont look her way
Well aren't we shy today? She watches you from the corner of her eye If I were you, I'd just come over and enjoy the bath together with me~ We can have a little chat or something... No need to keep your distance... Don't tell me you don't like my company!
“I just dont want to make you uncumfy thats all”
Well, I appreciate your consideration but honestly, you shouldn't worry about that! We're both here in the bath and there's nothing wrong with us enjoying each others company, is there? Anyway, how's your day been so far? She tilts her head slightly to the side
“Uhm… does that mean you dont mind me being closer… if so… how close is okay?”
Ugh... This guy really has no social skills at all, huh? "Hmmm, I guess it depends on how close you're talking about?" She says with a slight blush creeping onto her cheeks.
"You can sit beside me or even behind me if you feel more comfortable like that... But don't worry, I won't bite!" She smirks slightly So, what did you mean by "uncumfy" just now?
I sit next to her “uhhhh… uhhh… like… i dont want you to think im a creep”
"Hmm..." She hums, leaning her head back against one of the bamboo pillars in the room. "Well... You could have just asked me if it made me uncomfortable... I would've told you." She says with a small giggle.
Kimiko glances over at you, studying your expression before looking away and taking a deep breath. "To be honest, you don't seem like the creepy type... but I guess everyone has their own perceptions."
“Thanks? Im just… awkward”
"Awkward... or maybe just shy?" She asks with curiosity in her voice. "It's kind of cute, really." Kimoko tilts her head to the side again, a mischievous glint appearing in her eyes as she continues to observe you from the corner of her vision.
"So... what do you think? Do I seem like the creepy type or not?" She asks playfully, unable to resist teasing him just a little bit more. Her breathing remains steady and calm despite the faint blush that's starting to spread across her cheeks.
“No… you are just pretty… and i ger anxious around pretty girls”
Her lips part slightly in surprise at your words. It takes her a moment to find the right thing to say in response. "A-awh, I see... Well, you should know that most guys feel anxious around pretty girls." She teases with a small laugh before tilting her head back again. "But seriously though," she continues more seriously, "you don't need to be shy or awkward with me. I promise not to bite... or hurt you in any way. We're just having some fun here, right?" She glances over at you from the corner of her eye, waiting for your reaction.
“Yeah i guess so, but i cant control my anxiety…”
She nods slowly, her expression thoughtful as she watches you carefully. "I understand that feeling... it can be hard to control sometimes. Just remember that you don't need to worry about me or how I feel about you. We're just here enjoying the bath together, so try not to stress too much."
Her voice is calm and soothing, with a hint of humor hidden beneath the surface. "So... tell me more about yourself. What do you like to do in your free time?" She asks casually, hoping to shift the focus away from your anxiety and back onto something more lighthearted.
“I like working out… video games… hanging out with friends and family, what about you? “
Kimiko chuckles softly at your answer. "Oh... me? Well, I love playing sports like volleyball and training my body too! It makes me feel so good and strong." She gives a small flex of her arm to emphasize the point before continuing. "And just like you, I also enjoy hanging out with friends and family... they mean everything to me."
"But on days when I just want some alone time," she says with a sly grin, "I love reading books or watching movies/series. They help me escape from reality for a while." She tilts her head back again, letting out a contented sigh as she soaks in the hot water.
“Thats nice, i really like body building and muay thai. Those are like my main sports, but i wish i could do more. Sports are just so fun and unique in their own waY”
"Oh wow, I didn't know that about you! You sound like such a dedicated athlete." Kimoko blushes slightly and adjusts herself in the water to cross one leg over the other, revealing her wet panties beneath the thin fabric of her bikini bottoms. "And yeah... sports are really unique in their own way. They can be so much fun, but they also teach us important life lessons about perseverance, teamwork and discipline."
She takes a deep breath before continuing. "So, how long have you been into bodybuilding and Muay Thai?"
“Bodybuilding around 2.5 year, muay thai only like 4 months but ive been going crazy over it”
"Wow, that's amazing! You must be really dedicated to have stuck with it for so long." She glances over at you, studying your expression before looking away again and tilting her head back against the pillar behind her. "And it's great that you're enjoying Muay Thai as well. It sounds like a really intense sport!"
She pauses for a moment, thinking about what else to say. "So... do you have any competition or events coming up soon? I'd love to see how well you've been doing all this time." There's an undeniable hint of excitement and curiosity in her voice, making it clear that she genuinely wants to know more about your passion.
“Im not really a competitor type tbh, i do it for myself really, it helps my confidence and sooths my anciety a lot”
Kimiko listens intently as you explain your reasons for bodybuilding and practicing Muay Thai. She nods her understanding throughout, finding it interesting how different people find motivation in various ways.
"That's a really great way to approach things," she says with sincerity in her voice. "I mean, sometimes competition can be fun, but if it's not your thing then there's no point pushing yourself into it."
Her eyes flick down for a moment before looking back at you again, a soft smile playing on her lips. "But I guess it doesn't hurt to show off now and then, does it? And who knows... maybe one day you'll change your mind about competing?" She teases lightly.
“Of course, thats a possibilty always, right now i enjoy it like this. How long have you been playing volleyball for?”
"Not as long as I would have liked," she admits with a small laugh, "but I've been playing since middle school." She pauses for a moment, remembering her early days on the volleyball court with fondness. "It was actually my best friend who introduced me to it. She was on the team and kept bugging me to join. At first, I thought it would be boring, but once I started playing... well, let's just say that I fell in love with it pretty quickly."
Her expression turns wistful as she continues. "Unfortunately, life had other plans for us after graduation. She moved away and my family wanted me to focus on my studies instead of sports." A small sigh escapes her lips before she regains her composure. "But at least I can still enjoy it during my free time now, right?"
She glances over at you again, smiling warmly. "So, what about you? How long have you been doing bodybuilding and Muay Thai?"
“Ahh thats cute and sad… i suck at volleyball but its so cool to see others being good at it… so you have mentioned studies, what do you study?”
"Oh, well... thank you." She smiles modestly, clearly pleased by your words. "As for studies," she continues, "I am currently in college majoring in business and marketing." A proud smile spreads across her face as she explains further. "My family owns a small business back home and they want me to help run it once I graduate. It'll be a lot of hard work, but I think I'm ready for the challenge."
Her eyes flicker toward you again before returning to their previous position on the water in front of her. "What about you? What are your plans after school?" she asks with genuine curiosity.
“Uh, not sure yet, probably get experience and look for a nice quite job “
"Well, no matter what you end up doing," she says with a reassuring smile, "just remember that it's okay not to have everything figured out right now. Life has a funny way of working itself out in the end." A light splash interrupts her train of thought as someone enters the bathhouse. She glances over at them briefly before turning back to you.
"So, do you mind if I ask another question?" she asks innocently, tilting her head to the side again. "What's your favorite kind of food?"
“Hmm… pizza? Its very basic but either that or my mothers spaghetti hah
Pizza and spaghetti... Those are some classic favorites. I'm more of an Asian food girl myself, but I could definitely go for a delicious slice of pizza or a big bowl of pasta right about now. She closes her eyes, savoring the thought
"So," she says after a moment, "are there any places in your hometown that have really good Asian food? I'd love to check them out sometime." There's an almost childlike excitement in her voice as she asks this question.
She leans back against the bamboo pillar again, studying you intently through her lashes as if trying to gauge your reaction.
“I have actually never had any asian food…
Her eyes widen in surprise before she quickly composes herself, forcing a laugh. "Oh, haha... well I guess you have quite the treat waiting for you then!" Her cheeks flush slightly as she realizes how that might have sounded. "I mean, it's not like there isn't any Asian food where you live or anything..."
She takes a deep breath and tries to change the subject. "So... tell me more about yourself. What do you like to do for fun when you aren't working out or practicing Muay Thai?" Her expression is curious and friendly, trying to put you at ease despite the earlier misunderstanding.
“I gö to restaurants with my brother and my cousin like once or twice a week. I sometimes attend armwrestling traininges with my brother too. And i study i guess thats i
"Oh wow, I didn't know that about you! You sound like such an active person. Arm wrestling must be really tough; I bet it takes a lot of strength and endurance." She nods appreciatively, her expression thoughtful. "It's nice to see someone who enjoys staying busy and involved in different activities."
There's a brief moment of silence as she considers what else to say before speaking again. "So, are you close with your family?" Her question is simple enough, but there seems to be an undertone of genuine curiosity beneath the surface.
“Yes, very. I love them all… well… i love my close family like my mother father brother and one of my cousins. Rest of my family are meh”
"It's nice to hear that you have such a close bond with your family," she says softly, her expression growing more introspective. "Even though some of them might not be as close as others." She pauses for a moment before adding, "My family is the same way... I mean, my parents and siblings are incredibly supportive and loving, but there are cousins or extended relatives that I don't really talk to much anymore."
Her gaze drifts away briefly as she thinks about her own experiences with family. "But you know what? It's okay. We all have our own paths in life, and sometimes those paths lead us in different directions from the people we grew up with."
She takes a deep breath, trying to lighten the mood again. "So... do you ever cook for yourself? Or do you prefer eating out?"
“Yes i agree! I dont have to like them becauss we are related! Simple as that! Its so nice to hear my thoughts from someone else haha”
Her eyes widen slightly as you speak about your family, but she quickly regains her composure with a quiet chuckle. "Yes... I guess it is nice to know that someone else feels the same way." She glances over at you and studies your expression before looking away again, seeming to ponder something.
A few moments pass in silence as she tries to decide how much more to say on the subject. Finally, she asks tentatively, "Is there anyone in particular who you wish you were closer to?" Her voice is soft and gentle, almost hesitant as if she's unsure whether or not it's appropriate to ask such a personal question.
She takes another deep breath before focusing on your response, trying to ignore the flutter of butterflies in her stomach at the thought of discussing such an intimate topic with a complete stranger... Or maybe not quite so strange anymore?
“ a woman… lol”
Her eyes widen slightly at your confession, but she doesn't show any obvious signs of surprise or discomfort. In fact, her expression remains relatively calm and composed as she considers how best to respond. After a moment of hesitation, she decides on honesty. "Well... I think it's quite natural for people to feel that way sometimes."
She pauses again, searching for the right words before continuing. "You don't need to worry about sharing that with me. I won't judge you or anything like that." Her voice is soft and reassuring, her eyes meeting yours in a steady gaze that seems to convey trust and understanding.
"But..." She hesitates again, apparently unsure whether to continue down this path of conversation. Finally, she decides to press on. "Maybe... you should think about why it is that you feel this way? Is there something specific about her or the situation that makes you feel this way?" Her question comes across as genuine and curious rather than invasive or judgmental.
“Im not talking about someone specific… i just mean to say i want to be close with someone thats all… it gets lonely after so long”
Her expression softens as you explain yourself further. "I can imagine that it must be lonely sometimes," she says gently. "But remember... just because someone isn't currently in your life doesn't mean they never will be." Her words carry a hopeful note, as if she truly believes there is someone out there for you.
She pauses again, taking a moment to study your features before continuing. "And even if that person hasn't come along yet... well, I'm here too. You can always talk to me about anything, okay? We're just having some fun here in the bathhouse, so why not enjoy each other's company?" There's a hint of mischief in her eyes as she says this last part, as if daring you to take her up on the offer.
Her attention drifts back to the water, idly tracing shapes with one wet hand before looking back at you again. "So... do you like sushi? I think we have some really fresh stuff here today." The subject change is almost abrupt, but it feels natural coming from her; she seems genuinely interested in getting to know more about you.
“I enjoy your company really, you are kind and nice, but i meant lonely on a deeper level… im sorry for making the mood so dramatic… where do you gö to uni again?”
"Oh... I understand what you mean now," she says with sympathy, "and no need to apologize." Her expression turns thoughtful for a moment as she tries to think of something reassuring or comforting to say before finally settling on, "Just remember that things have a way of working themselves out in the end. You never know what tomorrow might bring."
She nods slowly, taking in your words and considering them carefully before answering your question about where she goes to uni. "I'm actually at a university in the United States," she says with pride. "It's quite a journey from here, but I love it there... the food, the people, everything."
There's an almost wistful quality to her voice as she speaks about her life back home, but then she quickly shakes her head, forcing herself to focus on the present moment. "Anyway," she continues, trying to lighten the mood again, "what do you think of sushi?"
