Chapter Six 3
What a high diving platform...
I stood on the diving platform that had been built early in the morning and looked down. All the people wearing Jono uniforms looked very small, like ants. The wind 40 meters above the ground blew on my face and it was cool and a little painful.
So...so scary!
If I accidentally fall down... Ugh! Ming Cha Cha, what on earth are you thinking about all day long?
I mustered up the courage to look down again… My legs went weak and I couldn't help but grab something nearby to steady myself.
"Hey, what are you doing!" Ayano Yu raised her beautiful dark eyebrows and said with disdain, "How can you be so strong? You almost tore my sleeves."
"I'm scared!" I answered him confidently.
The corners of Ayano Yu's mouth twitched a few times, and he sighed helplessly: "Look far away, then you won't be too scared!"
I followed his gaze and looked into the distance. The azure blue sea was shining brightly in the sun, as beautiful as a huge sapphire.
It’s so beautiful… My tension is really relieved!
"Hmph, coward." Ayano Yu glanced at me very coolly and slowly tightened the safety rope tied around his waist.
I didn't expect him to be so courageous...
"Ayano Yu, aren't you afraid at all?" I looked at him puzzled.
He raised his black eyebrows: "When has this young master ever been afraid? Ming Cha Cha, do you think everyone is like you, so timid that they don't even dare to look at it..."
"Okay, classmate, you can dance now." At this moment, the coach beside him patted Ayano Yu's shoulder.
"Cough cough!" He was suddenly choked by his saliva and let out a deafening cough.
"Hey! Ayano Yu, how are you?" I was startled and quickly supported Ayano Yu.
The wind ruffled his hair in front of his forehead, revealing a pair of obsidian-like calm eyes. His thin lips were pursed into a line, and a trace of paleness slowly crept up Ayano Yu's cheek. He tightly grasped the railing beside him with one hand, and his fingers were blue with veins because he used too much force.
No...something is very wrong...
"Ayano Yu, you..." I suddenly felt his hands trembling slightly through my clothes.
This guy is not as calm as he says.
"Ayano Yu, it's okay. The safety rope is very strong, and there is a safety cushion underneath. This training is just for preparation. If you can't adapt to it, you can give up..." The coach also noticed that something was wrong with him and said considerately.
Ayano Yu glanced at me and pursed his lips: "It's just a little bungee jumping... I, I'll jump right now..."
After saying that, he took a step forward, left one foot suspended in the air for a second, then immediately retracted it.
"Hehe," Ayano Yu laughed dryly and explained palely, "I'm still a little bit out of accustomed to it."
"Ayano Yu-san, why don't you let Mingchacha-san dance first?" the coach suggested.
"No!" He and I said in unison. He grabbed my hand, and a hint of uneasiness flashed in his obsidian eyes.
I looked behind me and found that other people were already queuing up at the back, and everyone was looking at me and Ayano Yu with strange eyes.
"Teacher, Ayano Yu and I will take a break first, and let the students at the back practice first." After saying that, I pulled Ayano Yu aside.
Only after he walked down from the platform did Ayano Yu let go of my hand. He glanced at me guiltily and then turned his eyes away. Ayano Yu's face was pale, his white teeth were chattering, and his head was drooping, like a sick husky...
How can I lose my temper when he is in such a miserable state?
"Hehe," I curled my lips, "Go ahead, confess to me."
"What's there to say? Aren't you scared too?" Ayano Yu muttered. Now he had no momentum at all and looked even weaker.
"I am scared, but I have said it clearly, and now I am not afraid at all!" You little brat, you are still so stubborn. I deliberately said loudly, "I will jump now, there will be absolutely no problem!"
"I, I..." He paused for a long time, and finally scratched his hair angrily, "I'm just a little afraid of heights!"
"The No. 1 Male God in Shino - The Unknown Little Secret Revealed"!
I don’t know why, but this news headline suddenly flashed through my mind, and I couldn’t help but burst out laughing: “I never thought that the legendary male god would have such a weak problem as fear of heights…”
"What's so funny!" Ayano Yu looked around and rushed over to cover my mouth. "We are a team. If I'm embarrassed, you're embarrassed too!"
The warm skin of Ayano Yu's palm touched the tip of my nose, causing my heart to beat uncontrollably.
I slapped his hand away: "You also know that we are a team! Why didn't you tell me earlier that you are afraid of heights?"
"Uh..." Ayano Yu said stubbornly, "What's the point of telling you? Can it cure my fear of heights?"
This idiot, I really want to beat him up!
"How could I be as stupid as you!" I finally caught this guy's handle, and couldn't help but raise my hand proudly and tapped his smooth forehead, "Of course I have a better way!"
If a person is afraid, then as long as I am with him, it should be much better!
Since Ayano Yu is afraid of heights, I'll come and accompany him!
five minutes later.
“Ahhh—”
“Ahhh—”
I screamed loudly and fell down rapidly with Ayano Yu!
We hugged each other tightly, with the safety rope tied around our waists. I felt myself falling faster and faster in a state of weightlessness. I was about to hit the ground hard, but suddenly I felt a pulling force on my waist, and the bungee rope pulled me back into the sky.
The wind quickly passed by my ears like a knife, it was so scary!
At this time, Ayano Yu's slightly warm breath fell on my shoulder. Compared with me, he seemed much quieter. Our heartbeats overlapped . His unique refreshing scent came, like a ray of sunshine breaking through the clouds in the cold winter. My heart suddenly warmed up, and the feeling of fear faded a lot.
After bouncing up and down several times, Ayano Yu and I finally landed slowly on the air cushion.
"So exciting!" I untied the safety rope on my body and patted his shoulder excitedly, "Not bad, right? Fear of heights can be overcome!"
Ayano Yu looked at me with a pale face and said, "It seems... not so good."
After saying that, his knees went weak and he fell into my arms.
