Kaisha's Pov
I was casually scrolling on my phone while lying in bed when a notification from my game app popped up. Curious, I opened it to see a message from Nalu.
Nalu_: Hey stalker! You like rain, huh? Good to know you had a good sleep!
A smile tugged at my lips as I read it. I really love the rain—it’s always been calming for me. I quickly typed back.
s_Kai: Yes! I really like and love the rain! Now you know!
Nalu_: Hmm, noted! Thanks for telling me! I’m bored, Kai. Let’s hang out in my room?
s_Kai: Maybe later? I’m going out for a bit.
Nalu_: Okay! Ingat! See you later in my room!
Even though I appreciated Nalu's invite, I decided to decline. I planned to go to the gym with Yanny instead. I really need to get moving and shake off this lazy vibe. Plus, bonding time with my bestie is long overdue—I honestly can’t remember the last time we went to the gym together. So yeah, it’s gym time with Yanny today!
The gym was buzzing with energy—music blasting, weights clinking, and people all hyped up sa kanilang workouts. Yanny and I walked in, and I swear the smell of rubber mats and metal equipment hit us agad.
“Wow, finally decided to make balik ka na dito, huh?” Yanny teased, nudging me habang naglalakad kami papunta sa lockers. “It’s been forever since we worked out together.”
“Grabe, I know!” I laughed. “Na-miss ko rin, promise.”
“Same! Let's make sulit today, okay?” she said, tying her hair into a ponytail.
We started sa treadmill, warming up habang sabay ang tunog ng paa namin sa beat ng music. After a while, Yanny broke the silence.
“So, ano na? Still gaming 24/7?” she smirked.
“Guilty!” I laughed. “Pero at least andito ako now, di ba?”
She rolled her eyes playfully. “Fine. Basta huwag ka na mag-ghost ng gym, okay?”
I smiled, "I can't promise that! You know that I'm always tamad and it depends sa mood ko! Sorry, Yanny."
Yanny laughed, "I know! so stop explaining yourself! Kilalang kilala na kita!" She replied.
Next stop: weights. Yanny was super seryoso, correcting my form and pushing me to lift heavier. Ang galing niya talaga mag-motivate, buti na lang she’s my gym buddy.
After ilang reps, parang jelly na yung arms ko, but worth it naman. By the end, pareho kaming drenched in sweat.
“Grabe ka, Yanny. Salamat for dragging me here,” I said, drinking water like wala nang bukas. "I'll just gonna go to the comfort room."
After leaving Yanny, I headed to the comfort room kasi I needed to pee. Pagbalik ko, habang naglalakad pabalik sa kanya, something caught my attention—isang babae at yung coach niya nag-sparring. Napahinto ako to watch kasi grabe, intense sila.
The girl was impressive. Sobrang bilis ng galaw niya, parang hindi man lang nahihirapan. The coach kept throwing punches—jabs, hooks, pero she dodged them like a pro. Minsan parang mabibigla ka kasi she countered agad with precise punches to the coach’s body and head. Solid yung stance niya, feet firmly planted, pero ang smooth pa rin ng footwork.
