Loving You What It Is

Chapter 20's

Abi looks lethargic because he is not used to the activity that suddenly changed let alone this is only the second day. He also had to adjust to the healthy food made by his mother. However, junk food tastes better than vegetables.

Not only did that make him lethargic, today he had to help Sarah and ask Justin if he already had a girlfriend or not. Surely he was reluctant, he was afraid Justin misunderstood let alone they would continue to meet but he had no choice because he did not want to disappoint Sarah.

At that time he and Sarah were already on a bus that would take them to the gym. Sarah looks like she's having fun, she's sure Justin doesn't have a boyfriend because last night she called one of her friends at the reunion and asked him about it.

He also asks a lot about Justin and his belief that Justin is a successful entrepreneur is getting stronger. He would not give up much less he planned on following Justin secretly. A house near the station in Broklyn? I really don't believe Justin lives in a place like that.

Don't call him Sarah if he can't prove that Justin is the businessman he deserves to pursue. He will do it later but he wants to know first, Justin has a girlfriend or not and after that he will follow Justin secretly. For sure Ben will suddenly get an impromptu task that he will never expect later.

The bus carrying them had stopped, Abi was seen sighing. All he was thinking about right now was how he asked Justin later. He had to do that to look normal, all this time he also did not know Justin even though they were old friends, it was because they were not close let alone Justin moved suddenly.

Sarah grabs Abi's hand as they step toward the Gym. He wants to remind Abi that he does not forget to find out, Justin already has a girlfriend or not.

"Abi, don't forget to find out if Justin has a girlfriend or not" Sarah reminded.

"But, Sarah?" He really doesn't want to.

"Please, you promised," Sarah put on a pleading and begging face.

Abi sighed, the girl nodded with a heavy heart. Sarah is really happy, this way she can know Justin already has a girlfriend or not.

They went into the gym and separated. Abi went straight up to the second floor, while Sarah went somewhere else. Abi sighed as he was about to enter the room, he should have concentrated on his fitness but he so thought about Sarah's request.

The door opened, Justin was already inside waiting for him. Justin smiled as he looked at Abi, the girl looked awkward and waved her hand.

"Sorry, I'm late" Abi said.

"It's okay, it doesn't matter."

"Have you waited a long time?"

"No," Justin replied with a smile.

Abi smiled, his finger pointing towards the changing room as he had to change clothes, while Justin nodded. During the change of clothes, Abi rethink Sarah's request. She didn't know how to start the conversation so she could ask Justin. He even thought about it while fitness and it made him not concentrate at all.

"What's wrong with you?" Justin looked at her with astonishment.

"Ti-No!" Abi shook his head but Justin suspected that there was something Abi was thinking.

"Then why don't you concentrate?"

"Ma-I'm sorry," Abi was so unwell.

"Well, stop for a second and tell me what you're thinking. I don't like to see you don't concentrate like this" the treadmill was dismissed so Abi stopped her steps.

"It's okay, me?"

"Dry!" Justin grabbed Abi's hand, he would take the girl to rest and talk for a while.

The two of them sat in a long chair in the room. Justin gave a bottle of water to Abi, he hopes that after speaking Abi will concentrate on his fitness again.

"Ti-No!" abi replied while shaking his head.

"Then?" Justin looked at her intently, he wanted to know what Abi was thinking.

Abi lowered his head, he was really reluctant let alone this was none of his business but he also could not delay because he knew Sarah would definitely ask this when they came home.

"Sa-Sarah wants to know if you have a boyfriend or not" Abi said, not daring to look at Justin and still looking down.

"What's? So you're like this just because of this?"

"I'm sorry, I don't want to make you misunderstand me, but Sarah asked me to ask you this."

Justin was silent, he looked thoughtful but his eyes glanced at Abi once in a while. She did not expect Sarah to ask Abi to ask that.

"Sa-Sarah said she likes you so she asked me to ask you this. Sorry, don't be angry and offended" Abi said.

Justin smiled, he knew Abi had no choice. He couldn't be angry just because of this. If Sarah wants to know then she'll let you know if there's a girl she's liked for a long time.

"It's okay, I won't be angry. I'll answer your questions so Sarah knows and not press you again."

"Thanks," Abi smiled, she began to dare look at Justin.

"Indeed I don't have a boyfriend, but there's a girl that I've liked for a long time."

"really?"

"Yes, don't you believe me?" justin asked as he looked at Abi closely.

"No, it's not that."

"Tell Sarah if I don't have a boyfriend but there's been a girl I've liked for a long time. Maybe you'll think I'm blind but that girl isn't much different from you. He's also fat and now he's trying to lose weight like you."

"Really?" Abi looked in disbelief.

"Yes, why would I lie? That's why I became a fitness instructor. I'm trying to help her lose weight."

"Well, he must be very lucky. So besides being my fitness instructor you're also her instructor?" ask Abi again without knowing if the girl Justin is referring to is himself.

"Yes, that's how it is" Justin smiled.

"I'm getting excited" Abi said.

"Don't let the girl you like lose weight, and I won't!" Abi looks excited, it turns out he is not the only one who is struggling. He can't lose because he wants to be skinny so that his life is better.

"Good, I love your spirit!" justin's smile blooms again, may Abi realize who he means one day.

"Let's start again" Abi moved, approaching the treadmill. Today he will do it earnestly and of course he will not complain.

He knew to lose weight would not be easy but he would not give up, by changing the usual lifestyle he did he was sure he could lose weight and for sure the struggle was not easy but he would not be alone, because Justin would accompany him until his wish was achieved.
