Chapter 43: The day I went to the pool. (Swimming.)

Since Yui-chan has her own float, I used that to teach her swimming posture for about ten minutes. At first Yui-chan puts too much strength in her leg, but she still managed to do a flutter kick naturally in the end.

As for Misaki she’s inside the float Yui-chan’s pushing. At first I planned to teach them both at the same time at somewhere their face is still not under water, but this pool is about one meter deep. Unfortunately Misaki’s leg can’t reach the botoom, so for now I have her wait obediently somewhere within my eye’s reach.

“Misaki, how’s this!? Is this fast!?”

“……Un.”

Though no matter how you look at it that’s still slow, but well I guess the standard for an adult and a kid is different. Rather if she’s actually fast then it’d be a big problem. There’s a lot of people around us, even if you’re careful you can still bump into other people in no time.

That aside Yui-chan keeps doing flutter kicks with a satisfied face. But she hasn’t let go of the float yet, maybe that’s the thing that makes her still being able to swim.

“Yui-chan, don’t you think it’s the time to try it without your float now?”

“I’m going to die!”

“Your leg can still reach the bottom of the pool so it’s okay. I’m also staying by your side too.”

“I won’t be deceived!”

“I’m not deceiving you really.”

Yui-chan stops kicking with her feet, and look at me with eyes full of wariness as her lips are shaking like crazy. Maybe she has experienced drowning in the past I guess.

“But do you hate that idea so much?”

“No!”

Seems like her determination is still going strong.

“Can’t helped it then…… Alright, Misaki’s turn now.”

“……Un?”

Right now Misaki’s inside the float, and with a relaxed face at that.

Misaki’s turn? At what? She tilted her head as if to ask that.

“Swimming practice. You’ve seen what Yui-chan did right?”

“……Un.”

Excellent memory is Misaki’s specialty. Surely even with my bad teaching she can learn how to swim in no time at all. However, her leg not reaching the bottom is still a bit of a prob―― Well, I really want to punch myself now for thinking that I could teach Misaki even for a moment.

Splash splash splash.

Ten minutes later. A figure of a girl named Misaki restlessly swimming using dog paddle style can be seen.

“Ohhhh incredible Misaki! You’re swimming! You’re really swimming right now!”

“……Un-n.”

She’s a little out of breath, maybe it’s because she’s moving at a rapid pace.

“Next put your face into the water. I just taught you how to do crawl technique right? Like this, when your nose is in the water you exhale, when you need to take a breath, you quickly twist your shoulder, then let your mouth get out of the water. Watch this.”

I bend my leg as to let my shoulders sink into the water, then I moves only with my hand to demonstrate the crawl technique.

“……Un.”

She nods, submerge her face in the water then stretch her hands out forward.

Then, she started doing the crawl technique just like how I did it.

“Ohhhh awesome! Totally awesome MIsaki!”

Since I havn’t taught her the flutter kicks yet so she hasn’t moved her legs much. But her hands’ movements are perfect. Of course the her speed is just like a turtle walking on land, but she’s steadily moving towards me.

And so, she has arrived at my place without any danger.

Misaki touched my shoulders using her fingertips and raise her head up, and then start doing dog paddle on the spot. However her eyes are still closed, maybe because her hands are still occupied so she can’t wipe her face. Her eyebrows are tightly knotted, seems like she’s wondering what has happened.

I borrowed the float from Yui-chan who was looking at Misaki with stunned expression, and then I put Misaki on the float. Although when I lifted her up Misaki is surprised from the suddenness and starts struggling, but once I told her what’s happening she returned to her calm self, then slowly she starts wiping her face with her hand.

She blinks repeatedly, looking at me.

After thinking about what I should do, I give her a thumbs up. Misaki nods in satifaction.

Oh man, I’ve always thought that Misaki was a genius all this time but, to think that she can even learn how to swim this fast…… She has no weaknesses at all. You’re totally flawless aren’t you Misaki!

“……Cool?”

“Oh! That was super cool!”

“…………”

“…………”

W-, what. She’s staring hard at me for some reason…… Wait hold on, I think I remember this. This is just like the time we did the string figure―― Pat her!

Fuu, I’m different from myself from before. Myself rightnow, is a man that knows everything she wants. Rejoice Misaki, I’ll pat your head as much as you wants――

“Ryo-kun!”

“What’s up Yui-chan. I’m about to do that right now.”

“Look at this!”

Yui-chan takes a deep breath in, and then put her face in the water with great momentum.

Immediately after, she raised her head up with great momentum.

“Water! My face! Water!”

Said Yui-chan while her swimming goggles on her neck is still shaking.

“Yui-chan, your goggles.”

“Hah-, my blunder! ――This goggles is no good!”

“Get the water out of it first before wearing it……”

Yui-chan stood up as she feels a sense of rivalry towards Misaki but, she just wasted her energy on something useless. How do I put this…… It kinda make me feels listless in a good way.

Misaki look at Yui-chan who’s making a fuss, as her eyes kept blinking repeatedly.
