Chapter 4 - Chapter 4: Physical Exercise

Tatsuya was in the middle of his physical exercise class when he suddenly realized that he was doing better than usual. He was moving faster, jumping higher, and had more endurance than ever before. He felt nervous, unsure of why he was suddenly so much stronger. He had always been a decent athlete, but this was different.

After class, Tatsuya was approached by some of his classmates who were impressed by his performance. They asked him if he had been training or doing something differently lately. Tatsuya hesitated for a moment, not wanting to reveal his powers to anyone. He decided to play it safe and told them that he had been exercising more recently.

"Really? I didn't know you were into that kind of thing, Tatsuya," one of his friends said.

"Yeah, I figured it was time to get in shape," Tatsuya replied with a shrug.

"Well, it's paying off. You were amazing in class today," another friend added.

Tatsuya smiled, feeling relieved that his cover story had worked. However, he couldn't help but feel a little disappointed that he couldn't share the truth with his friends. He wanted to tell them about his powers, but he couldn't risk it. The last thing he wanted was for people to find out and start asking questions.

Tatsuya was lost in thought as he walked home from school. He was starting to realize that having powers was going to be a double-edged sword. On one hand, it was amazing to be able to do things that others couldn't. On the other hand, it was lonely and isolating to keep it a secret. Tatsuya sighed, feeling overwhelmed by the weight of his newfound abilities. He just hoped that he could figure out how to balance it all and find a way to use his powers for good.
