Chapter 153 Going To The Gym With Rita
-----
As I ran to the gym, which was just around the corner of my house, I took my phone and saw a text from Rita.
-----
[Rita: Hey Elayne, I\'m already in the gym, how long are you going to take?]
----
R-Right! She was coming along with me to the Gym… This happened because I was actually quite afraid of going alone. I needed someone to encourage me, and she decided to come along because she was also getting a bit too much weight.
-----
[Elayne: I am sorryyyyy! I am already getting there!]
[Rita is typing…]
[Rita: Okay, make haste, Planta!]
[Elayne: Don\'t call me like my game avatar!]
[Rita: The Fairy Queen would be disappointed if she knew you\'re such a slacker!]
[Elayne: Ugh, if you talk about the game like this it gets cringy super-fast… Please stop!]
[Rita: Hahahaha! Ohhh, look at this guy! He got some good ass]

"Ehhh?!"
Rita suddenly sent me a picture of a muscular guy working out in the gym. He indeed had a beautiful ass… But isn\'t this a bit too perverted? She\'s such a degenerate!
-----
[Elayne: RITA! You\'re married, don\'t go look at men like that! Also don\'t take pictures, that\'s creepy…]
[Rita: Hahaha! Come on, I am just enjoying the view… You\'ll love it! So many hot guys! Holy shit… Maybe you can get popular here because you\'re alone ;)]
[Elayne is typing…]
[Elayne: Sop talking nonsense! Degenerate!]
[Rita: Jajajaja]

Ggrrr… That Rita really gets in my nerves sometimes by talking such embarrassing things!
When I finally got into the gym, I showed my ID and then got inside. It was just as big as I remember it. The building had two floors and it seemed to have windows everywhere. Thankfully the bathrooms didn\'t had them.
This gym was pretty high quality. I had checked the bathroom for ladies and it was just very beautiful and clean. It also has separate showers and warm water with fragrant soap. The monthly fee is around a 100 Canadian Dollars, but it was really worth it! I have thought about coming more times through the week too. And I might end up staying longer here in the weekend, as Elena said it was fine to take more time for myself.
"Uwaah, the place is big…" I said to myself, but my voice ended coming out slightly louder. A burly man with tanned skin and a handsome face suddenly noticed me and walked towards me.
"Hey, you\'re a newbie here?" He asked.
He really looked like the typical "Gym Bro" and I was already melting with that body he had! My god, why are you tempting this woman like this?!
"H-Hi… Y-Yeah…" I said while trying to look into his eyes, but my eyes always ended falling down to his chest and his big arms.
"That\'s nice! Name\'s Julio. I am an instructor here in the Gym. What\'s your name?" he asked nicely.
"E-Elayne…" I said. "Nice to meet you, Julio. I hope you can be nice with me…" I said slightly timidly.
"Sure thing! So? Do you need some introduction around the area or something? That\'s my job." He said while patting my shoulder.
"Erm, I came with a friend here, she\'s waiting for me somewhere… have you seen someone named Rita?" I asked.
"Rita… Rita… OH! Yeah, a woman near your age, right? She came here and she was super nice and talkative! I already gave her an introduction. She said she was waiting for a friend. She\'s on the second floor. Want me to bring you there while showing you the place?"
"S-Sure! Thank you so much."
"No problem, that\'s my job! Ask me anything!"
Julio was actually super nice. He introduced me around the entire gym and showed me each area in detail. He even told me they did dancing classes here to exercise too, which are often preferred for ladies my age. I ended seeing him off after I met with Rita, as he walked away leisurely and quickly found another newbie to introduce. It seems he took his job seriously.
"Hahaha, Elayne! How are ya- GYAAH!" Rita cried as I grabbed the tiny hair of her arm and pulled it out furiously. "I-I know you\'re angry but don\'t be! I was just joking! Come on…"
"Ggrrr…! You know? Sometimes I begin to reconsider our friendship when I realize I am the friend of such a huge degenerate!" I sighed while crossing my arms.
"D-Degenerate? Now you\'re exaggerating… I am just a lady, it\'s normal to enjoy my view sometimes…" She said. "And you\'re the weird one here trying to be all pure and innocent, I bet you were melting with Julia, right?"
As Rita said that I began growing redder.
"W-What are you talking about?! I would never see him this way, he was a super nice and good guy!" I barked back.
"Yeah, sure. Keep your façade for as long as you can." Rita said while smirking.
"Anyways, what do we do now?" I sighed. It was hopeless to argue with the pervert.
"Let\'s do some bicycle for starters. Did you warm up?" She asked.
"No…" I sighed.
"Then let\'s do a quick warmup together." Rita said.
She was surprisingly attentive and guided me through and through. It seems she had already gone to another gym some time ago, but stopped going out of laziness, or maybe she lost motivation.
After we warmed up, we did bicycle while talking about whatever, but the conversation of the game quickly rose up. Rita was more invested than I had originally thought.
"The game\'s getting pretty weird lately with all those custom quests. We have yet to go to the main town too!" She said.
"The one with that you can teleport into?"
"Yeah that one! Are you really planning to evade it?"
"W-Well, I am a bit afraid of going there…"
"Come on, we\'ll go after we are done. And this time WE\'LL DO IT FOR REAL! You\'re not evading it by saying you\'re busy in your farm, or that you\'re busy with your job or anything! Okay?" She said quite angrily.
"O-Okay! Why are you so bossy over this?" I asked.
"I just want you to enjoy the community of the game! Just talking with NPC ain\'t it." Rita said.
"I guess you\'re right… I should at least take a peek…" I sighed.
