At first you weren't quite consistent with working out your body. I mean you were busy being a preschool teacher, and you were busy with your little adoptive dog, that required lots of training in different areas. This piled up on you, but you reached a breaking point where you wanted a more maintained schedule and lifestyle even if a bit challenging. You were in your early 20's with tons of life ahead of you, so you decided to finally get yourself together and switch that life upside down.
From that point on you did early morning walks during weekdays having to walk your dog anyway and then go to the actual gym on weekends. There was a local gym that you would go to with your friend, that was surprisingly cheap.
It hasn't been entirely long since you've been going. But you started to take mental notes of all the people there, though there was one and one only that stood so far out to you. She seemed like the celebrity of this gym, everyone knew her, everyone loved her, she was very helpful to the people there genuinely the whole shabang. You often caught yourself staring at her as you worked out, your best friend always teased you about it often times having to hit your arm to even grab your attention back.
On this day your best friend left out of town to go visit family leaving you doing it alone this Saturday. You got the mighty bright idea to try out new equipment without her there to guide you thinking you could do it yourself. So, there you were standing there trying to do different positions to figure out which one actually worked for it, Haruko noticed this with a lifted eyebrow she examined you. After letting out a silent chuckle and head shake, she went over and approached you. She startled you a bit at first, but upon realizing it was even her made you go a bit red. You had to secretly pinch yourself to get it together, before she noticed you were red for another reason. (I'll leave it up to you to decide her response to Haruko or other way around.)
