*Haa haaa*
"I shouldn't have run at such a speed, I almost can't feel my legs," Orion complained.
Looking at the clock in the terminal, the guy had about 20 minutes left.
"Shower, shower shower shower.I need a shower.I have to finish everything in 10 minutes."
Orion takes a shower in the locker room, changes clothes, hands over the keys to the gravity room and runs to the G building.
"I ran there, I ran here.Yes, I'll fall when I get to the building!"
Miraculously, without being late, Orion resorts to the building, sees Ei in a white T-shirt and blue jeans at the entrance.
Then, with a calm step, he approaches her.
— Hi Ei.— The guy raises his hand in greeting with an apologetic smile.
— ...— She, in turn, does not even think to look in his direction.
"Hey, are you serious?You yourself wrote to me where and at what time I should come..."
— I'm sorry I didn't text you when it was over.I really didn't want you to worry.
"Yes, I will be so under the heel!It will be necessary to level the situation later..."
— Pf…Follow me. — The girl said dismissively
They walked calmly to the building.
Following Ei, Orion can't help but enjoy her slender figure.
Ei in turn thought:
"That's it, he's on the hook!I know you're looking at me from behind.If I turn around, I'll definitely catch you off guard and call you preoccupied."
The corners of her lips twitched up.But realizing that he might notice it somehow, he put on the ice mask again.
Turning her head in his direction, she speaks in a cold tone.
—What are you looking at, Oz..." she doesn't say.
Orion was looking in the direction of a passing car.
Her whole appearance radiated power, and the roar of the engine only added to her power.
Orion, realizing that they were addressing him, asks.
— Hey, did you say something?Just drove such a fucking car, you should have seen.
The girl was speechless.
"I was wagging my ass like a whore on purpose, and you didn't even look at me!?Who do you think you are!"
Ei accelerates her pace in anger and moves away from the guy.
Orion tries to catch up with her and ask what happened to her.
So, Orion was trying to find out why Ei clenched her fists and accelerated.
Meanwhile, the couple gets to the D building.
"Don't be so angry at the child Ei, you are psychologically older than him and should behave appropriately."
The girl reassured herself.
Entering the building, they immediately turn right to the stairs and climb to the second floor.
— Hey, it's nineteen ten now, unik will have to close by this time.
— I have the keys to the test site.
— Why should we go there?
Unable to stand Orion's stupidity, Ei almost screams at him.
— You have to fix everything you've done!
— Eh?— The guy was taken aback.
"I understand that I messed up yesterday, but she said it in the plural, did I do something wrong today?"
They enter the playground, Ei hands him a "Booster" and says.
— Now you will have to test this device.
Going back to the table, Ei takes out a piece of paper with instructions for using the Booster and hands it to Orion.
— Accumulates air, does Baah???And the little man flies off in the other direction?— The guy looks at the drawings.— Is it safe?
Ei is not looking at Orion, but at a complete degenerate.
— Of course it's not safe, that's why I called you.— You—she points her finger at him.— you'll have to test it.Use the power of Athena or that Tank from Biya's team there to reduce the number of injuries.
Orion looks at the Booster, understands that if he does not do something here, then he will not see a chance to be on equal terms with her.
— Okay, I get you.
The white-haired man puts on the device and goes to the center of the site.
— So, how do I activate it?
—You press the button on the left, you fly away to the left, to the right in the same way.In the ass, you fly forward, you press in front, you fly back.
— And how to use it in an emergency?
—This is a test sample, an idea that I propose to develop.There will be version 2.0 if I am recognized.— The girl said dryly.
Orion presents the scene as a great hero fighting a nine-headed hydra.
His body began to strengthen, and the strength in his muscles increased.
"Hercules."
Meanwhile, Ei is sitting with a drink and a camera.
— Go ahead.— She says, sipping a straw with a drink.
— Push to the left!— The guy presses the button and flies to the left side at a fast speed, almost bending double.
— Aah!The human body should not bend like that!
Ei took another sip and answers.
— Okay, so we'll calibrate it.
Catching his breath, the guy asks.
— How can such a small box push me away with such force?How much air is there in it?
— The air in it is strongly, very strongly compressed.
— I see…
And so the couple tested the Booster, its use in various situations.
*Haaa haaa*
The guy was breathing heavily.
— Can I at least drink some water?-Orion says wearily.
— No, if you throw up here, we'll be here even longer.
— Have you even written down what needs to be fixed there?
A malicious smile appeared on her face.— All your sufferings are recorded.
Looking at the girl, the guy thinks.
"Wait, that's not what I meant, not on camera!"
— Half an hour of good, no, just great stuff!Later I will review and write out all the shortcomings.
-So you were just watching me suffer?
- Yes.— Ei answers without a doubt.
-I'll be damned…
-You've been cursed for a long time.
Realizing that the conversation cannot go further in this direction, Orion says.
— We will practice separately from all groups, unfortunately.
— Mmm, we were also told that the rescue groups are separate from the production ones.
— So it won't work.— Looking out the window, the guy claims.
— Ori...—As if nothing had happened, Ei calls out to the guy.— will you help me test the Booster further?This is a very important project for me.
"Don't you care about my health?"
The guy is silent, thinking about this offer.
"And maybe..." she mumbles.—...I'll forgive you.Ei says almost in a whisper.
— Haa.— the guy sighs dejectedly.-Sometimes I think you're just using me."
The guy gets up, removes the device and puts it on the table.
"Orion, don't you think"
The girl shakes her head.
— Great!Then let's get out of here before the guards shut us down.— Says Ei.
— What time do they close everything there?
— By 8 o'clock the building is empty.— Ei looks at the clock.— We still have 5 minutes.
- Ok.— The guy nods.
They quickly turn off the lights, close the office and go outside.
—Listen,-Orion Says.— I was thinking, why were you allowed to use the test site?
— No one is against it, and even more so this project will be my way out to the companies.
— So they will invest in you if everything works out?
— Yeah.— The girl claims.
— Cool.
The couple goes to the dorm.
Orion gathers his will into a fist.
An image of a calm and collected Kyle Barrow appears in his head.
"I hope I can copy his calmness."
— Ei.-Orion looks straight into the girl's eyes.— I'm sorry, it won't happen again.
The whole look of the guy was collected, his eyes were as clear as the surface of a calm lake.
— I promise.
Ei looks dumbfounded at the guy in response.
Her cheeks were suffused with a crimson blush.
— I-I told you, w-that if you help with the project, I'll forgive you ...— The girl can't take her eyes off the floor.
— I would have helped you anyway.-Orion smiled at her sincerely.
"Ori, can you be romantic..."
— Okay, call me if you need me.— The guy goes to his room.
As soon as Orion was out of sight, Ei exhaled.
— Fuuuh ... — the blush still remained on her face.
Ei remembers Orion's warm and sincere smile.
"Everything is going according to plan, but the main thing is not to fall in love with him yourself, otherwise everything will go down the drain."
