I arrived in my place, feeling sluggish and tired. It was short training camp but it was indeed tiring.

But, sensei is right. I need to work on my stamina and weights. I realized that adding weights on my equipments could make my shooting difficulty to next level, and could help me with my shooting efficiency. So I also need to put weights for myself, and also my stamina to be able to hold them for enough quite of time

Before that!

I stood and immediately changed into my jersey.

"Time to have a running routine!" I got my phone, house key, put on my running shoes, and went out of the house, making sure that it was all locked.

I just came out of my apartment building but noticed that it was kind of dark already. I checked the time and it was only past 4:30 in the afternoon. It's spring, right?

Anyways, I stretched my arms and was about to run when my curiosity caught a brown box under the bridge in front of our apartment mansion, and it was moving. I went to see what it was and was dumbfounded to see a brown small husky, it's a puppy, wagging his tail, having his tongue out, looking at me

"Did someone leave you here?!" I immediately went towards him and noticed a jacket fall off inside the box "are you okay?" I asked and he kept on wagging his tail. I noticed his eyes, the left eye was gray, while the other is pure white. It wasn't heterochromatic eyes, but the right eye was indeed defected.

I crouched down and caressed his back, seems like he was liking it

"I think I'll just run tomorrow." I chuckled and there's something inside me telling me to adopt this dog. At least I have someone with me

"What are you doing here, (f/n)?" I flinched as I turned around and the least expected person I could see was standing behind me. This puppy also wagged his tail vigorously, excitedly barking at him

"...I-I just saw this puppy. Is he yours?" I asked and I just now noticed he was holding a box of almond milk, and a man-made bowl from an empty bottled water

"I saw him when I was on my way back." Akashi responded and was about to pour the milk when someone shouted

"You two over there! What the hell are you doing there?! Hurry up and get out of there!" We looked towards that man and he was wearing an orange vest and he was indeed anxious calling us. "HURRY UP!" He again shouted.

Akashi handed the milk and the bottle to me, then got the jacket, wrapped it to the husky then carried him.

We hurriedly went up to the side road, in which the man wearing vest was already there

"Didn't you see the notice?!" He angrily asked

"Notice?"

"There's a storm coming and the dam will release water today! There's a flood warning tonight until tomorrow! Didn't you see that" As he said that a loud warning noise resounded, in addition to that it started to rain

"Yama-san! All bridges on this side are now sealed. The trains also stop operating now!" A man on the other side of the bridge shouted

"Yeah! We'll almost done here as well!" This man named Yama-san shouted and then he looked at us "Now you two, go home already! Didn't you see the news that there's a big storm coming? Hurry up, go home and make yourself warm!"

After that he left and approached the other men putting barricades on the side of the road

"Akashi, uhm, if it's okay with you, I can take care of the husky and you can go home." I told him but he looked at me with stern expression
