The dinner he had with Chou Yi Tian 2 weeks ago is still bothering him. The question he asked was so random as if he knew something and he’s finding an answer to it. He couldn’t get his head around another reason for it. Something is not right. He wouldn’t ask if he didn’t knew anything. Even today felt weird. Hyori Chou is not here either to monitor Tzuyu’s progress. 3 days she had been absent from Tzuyu’s training. Coach Park look up at the bleachers stand and saw Sana sitting there with her book in hand maybe doing her revision while accompany Tzuyu. She’s here for the past 3 days since Hyori absence. He can’t help but feeling worried for Tzuyu. No matter how he see this, he has to admit that Sana is the reason why Tzuyu is cutting on time. Sana is the reason why Tzuyu is doing well at the moment. Yes her parents can’t be neglected to her success but Sana influence in the way Tzuyu is performing is out of any logical reason. What would happen if they took Sana away from Tzuyu? Coach Park shivered as he brush away his thought as he focus back on Tzuyu who actually already in her 3rd lap.

 

“Okay Tzuyu! 2 more laps!”

 

Tzuyu dived in as she made another turn as her legs kicking harder. Today, she feels kind of good. Don’t’ asked why. She had a good feeling about today and it shown in her training. Every felt right and every kick push her further forward. Tzuyu swim harder as she push for final lap. She only breathe 3 times as she push herself forward as her body gliding through the water. Tzuyu touch the wall as she dive out of water finally taking that desperate air she needed. She took of her googles and swimming cap. She look up on the bleachers stand and saw Sana leaning on the railings waving at her. Tzuyu smile and wave back. Maybe she felt good because Sana is here and she’s here because her mother is not here. Tzuyu have no idea why but she likes it. Hopefully Hyori won’t come for another week.

 

“Tzuyu, I’m here and not up there. Look at me.” Tzuyu awkwardly smile as Coach Park already on his right knee, kneeling in front of her with his clipboard and that stern expression.

 

“Erm, sorry coach. I was just..” Tzuyu rubbed the back of her neck as Coach Park shook his head.

 

“You’re doing well. I think next week open would be easy for you. Our main target would still be in Kazan. That will be your bench mark on how far have you gone. If you do well in Kazan then you’re going to be a serious contender in Rio.”

 

Tzuyu answered by nodding her head as she pushed herself up out of the pool. Coach Park take a step back as he watch his student grabbing onto a towel and wrapped it around her body.

 

“I know coach. Thank you.”

 

Coach Park glanced towards Sana once again before back at Tzuyu. He felt it his job to warn Tzuyu about his suspicious.

 

“Hey Tzu?”

 

Tzuyu look up as she grab her bag.

 

“Yeah?”

 

“How are you and Sana?”

 

“Sana and I? We’re doing fine. Why?”

 

“Really? No interferences from your parents? You know how they are against you dating right?”

 

Tzuyu chuckled as she takes out a blue sweeter and a pair of track pant.

 

“I didn’t tell them yet so basically they have no idea that I’m in a relationship. But I’ll tell them when the time is right.”

 

Coach Park raised an eyebrow as he found her explanation is a bit weird. Yi Tian didn’t know about Sana? But why does he sounded like he is at the dinner? Is he missing something? But looking at how happy Tzuyu is, he decided maybe he was being a delusional. He over think it. He better get back to reality.

 

“Uh well maybe I’m over reacting. Good job for today. I’ll see you tomorrow.”

  Coach Park pat Tzuyu on her head as he always do. It is his way of telling her how proud he is to be her coach. Well who wouldn’t be proud having this swimming genius as a student? A lot of his colleagues were envious of this opportunity that was given to him. They said Tzuyu is going to hit big in the future and mark her name as one of a great swimmer. Tzuyu smile reaching her ears as Coach Park walked away. As soon as he exiting the indoor pool hall, Tzuyu quickly look up once again and saw Sana wasn’t there on the stands anymore. She frowned.     “I’m here swimming genius.” Her wide smile is back as she turn around and saw Sana already standing behind her. She saw her girlfriend eyes travelling from bottom to her top body. She grin.   “I’m y aren’t I?”   Sana cut the distance between them as she held both ends of Tzuyu’s towel on that she placed on her neck when she was speaking with Coach Park. Sana tug on the towel and the force pulling Tzuyu forward towards her.   “Which part do you think that you’re y Tzu?”   Tzuyu wrapping her arms around Sana waist securing her hold on her as they had eyes on each other. Tzuyu like Sana’s brown eyes. Her eyes had this mysterious story behind it. There were times when she tried decipher what was behind that look Sana gave. Well she got nothing. Her girlfriend seems to be able to control whatever her eyes might give a hint. To be honest, there were times that Tzuyu have no idea what’s going on inside Sana head too. They had been dating for 4 months now but it felt like Sana still have a side where no one can learn about it even from her. Sana noticed how Tzuyu bright expression suddenly change.   “Hey, what’s wrong?”   Tzuyu shake away her thoughts as she focus back on Sana.   “I’m thinking how I’ll go through senior year if you weren’t here. It might be boring as hell.”   Sana pull away the towel from Tzuyu’s neck as she drop it down on the pool. Tzuyu glanced down and giggled as she saw her towel floating in the pool. But before she could say anything, Sana cup her face and forced her girlfriend to look at her instead of the floating towel.   “Why would you be thinking like that when I’m here? Plus…”   Sana leaned forward as she run her lips lightly from the base of Tzuyu’s neck upwards towards her right ear as her right hand slip inside Tzuyu’s jacket and tug it down her shoulder exposing her wet shoulder.   “…don’t you want to know which
