Preparation and prior planning.

Finally able to get dressed, I am almost out the door when Aor, still recovering from Yui's gruelling training session, tells the room, "I think I want to train with stud over here from now on."

"Not going to happen Aor!" Yui flashes back instantly as a knowing look passes between us, images of the sauna in both our minds.

I leave the girls to start getting ready for their week. Yui will have school and Piya her studies, same as me, Aor is currently a stay at home mum with her gorgeous little cherub but the girls Lawan and Dawn must almost be finished school. I'm not sure if this is their last week or not.

I am just about to enter my apartment when I run into my police officer neighbour Barry as he's leaving for work.

"Hey Barry, thank you again for helping us the other night," I say as we meet.

"Don't mention it mate. The missus sure hasn't stopped talking about it all weekend," Barry says in his typical good-natured humour.

"You're a lifesaver!" I tell him.

"All part of the job," Barry agrees, his eyes going to his senior sergeant stripes on his police uniform. "Any time you need me, just let me know. Although the earlier the better."

"Say about that, I couldn't borrow your boat sometime this week, could I?"

"Of course, mate. You know the drill, just clean her and fill up the tank afterwards. Lucy will have the keys if I'm not around. You taking your lady out for a cruise? What was her name? Yui right?"

"Yeah, kind of," I try and explain to a straight-laced man in his late fifties, "I'm actually involved with two girls at the moment. You met Yui the other night. I'm taking her friend Piya out this time."

The complete blank look on Barry's face is priceless.

"Damn kids and their orgies," Barry grumbles as he walks away, giving up on the conversation and walking away.

With thankfully no classes scheduled for my uni today, I am able to recover from the weekend and managed to get the majority of the preparation done for a workshop I have tomorrow. I head out again for the lunchtime MMA class at my academy. I thought a good workout would help me clear away the last of my hangover. I was wrong. By the third round of sparing I am out in the car park, doubled over, throwing up the remains of the rum I drank last night, along with the breakfast Piya prepared. Waving off the rest of the session my training partners get a good laugh at my expense.

I take an afternoon nap when I get home and have showered. I awake to a bunch of photos from last night along with the video Aor recorded of Piya and Yui drinking rum off my abs sent to me. Yui should have finished teaching for the day so I give her a call.

"Hey honey," Yui answers before the first ring has even finished.

"Hey, beautiful. How are you feeling today?" I ask hoping she wasn't too unwell in class today.

"Oh, just amazing! I had so much energy after my run with Aor today. I'm going to the gym again when I leave work if you want to join me?" Yui bubbles as I am amazed at where she finds the energy for everything.

"I don't think I'd feel up for it, sorry babe," I tell Yui before explaining how I already vomited once today trying to exercise.

"Aww you poor thing," Yui giggles at me. "How about I pick up something to eat when I'm done at the gym and we can eat together if you like?"

"That sounds great," I tell her.

"Goodie!" Yui exclaims at having organised to see me again so soon. "Now are you going to tell me what you have planned for this week?"

I tell Yui what my plans are to take Piya out on a proper actual date and she agrees that it's a wonderful idea and then feels a little guilty that she's been hogging me. I tell her not to worry and that Piya has been going through her own things at the moment which makes her feel better. After that, we talk about how the nuns had told her how much they liked me today and that Sister Superior Constance was very taken with me. Yui also tells me how she was shocked when she came into her office that morning and saw the mess we had made on her desk. I think Yui enjoys talking about what we had done just as much as she did making that mess. We bid farewell to each other knowing Yui will drop over later that evening and I let her finish working on her student's report cards.

Feeling as if I should take Yui’s lead and be productive, I finish off the rest of my workshop preparation and pack my uni satchel for tomorrow, notes safely packed away inside. My timetable gives me a two-hour break between lectures and my workshop at three in the afternoon. I message Piya to see if she will be free during that time at all. Piya had been putting in very long hours working on her thesis this year which meant she’d often been too busy to catch up for lunch as we had done in previous years. Luckily though she had an hour free and arranged to meet me in the tavern. With my uni work out of the way I straightened my room after Yui’s sleep over the other night and took a shower before she arrived.

So it was I was absently watching the latest current affairs program when I heard a knock at the door.
