I go up the stairs and see Arata is covered with sweat with a towel around his neck, he's drinking a bottle of water that he brought with him. I approach him with Togawa-san next to me, he's surprised to see me in the gym at this hour, he waves his hand while putting the bottle on the floor. He asks me why am I here and I tell him about my suspension, then Togawa-san asks him if he wants to have a spar with me. Arata looks at me with a surprised expression but then he stands up and wipes the sweat on his face and neck.
"You want to spar with me, Aze-kun? Then let's go."
I scoff and raise my eyebrow while staring at him with disbelief.
"Where's that confidence is coming from?"
Arata is laughing nervously while wiping his face.
"Because I have been trained by the pro so I think I believe in my skill now."
I look at Togawa-san and he's just smirking and chuckling arrogantly, I shake my head and look at Arata.
