The next day.

After Mashauva's classes ended, she went straight to the canteen to buy about a dozen bottles of water.

Only then did she go to the field with bags of water in hand.

Before she arrived, the boys on the basketball court were joking amongst themselves.

"Do you think that the girl from yesterday will come by later?"

"Who knows. She wasn't feeling well yesterday, so she probably won't be jogging today. She might need to rest for a few days. God knows what time she woke up yesterday."

"But even if she doesn't run today, she'll at least come to thank us, right?"

"C'mon, dude, you shouldn't help someone just because you want them to thank you. That's emotional blackmail."

"Alas."

"Look, who's that?"

The group of boys became excited when they saw Masahuva on the track.

"Here she comes. She's really here."

"What's in her hand? The bag looks heavy, but I'm not sure what it is."

"D*mn, can it be that she bought us gifts because we helped her yesterday?"

As Mashauva approached them, they noticed she had a rosy tinge to her fair skin. She looked charming and adorable.

"Dude, I think I'm in love."

"Who would've thought girls with some meat on their bones can be quite cute too."

"She's coming. Shush."

Mashauva finally reached them, carrying the bag of bottled water.
