This is Palmetto University in LA, one day after the daily swim practice. Mio steps out of the pool wearing a one-piece campus swimsuit that is significantly one size too small, which now doesn't wrap around her recently enlarged breasts very well, with exposed side boobs visible on the side. The chlorine in the air stings her nostrils as she notices that her grades had dropped again, looking down at her huge breasts and sighing.

'Why have my boobs gotten bigger again lately? The increased resistance in the water will slow down my grades! At this rate, I might not be able to fulfill my pact with Hiro!'

Just then Mio notices that Hiro has also just finished a lap, water dripping from his dark hair onto his broad shoulders. Mio speeds up her pace, the wet floor slippery beneath her feet as she walks over to Hiro, her childhood friend who came to college with her. Both share a passion for swimming, and they made a promise to get together if they both win their respective divisions of the college swimming league this year.

'Hey Hiro, I saw your results, you swim really fast! Your times have improved lately, I'm sure you can reach your goal!' Even though Mio learned that her grades had gotten worse, she suppressed the disappointment in her heart and sweetly congratulated Hiro, the scent of chlorine mixing with her strawberry shampoo.

Hiro: 'Heh heh yes, I'm sure I'll be able to catch up to the captain's record soon, and if I can, then there's a good chance I'll be able to win the championship this year!' Hiro replies enthusiastically, but he turns his head to look at the captain's record on the sheet posted on the wall. He's been trying for a semester now, and that number seems so close yet always out of reach.

'Yeah, the captain is really good at it... He's won the championship three years in a row in the past...' Mio suddenly realizes that this doesn't seem to be the right time to brag about the captain and hurriedly changes the subject. 'I don't mean that, what I mean is that the captain is so good, he must be able to lead even better players, like you aren't you?'

Hiro: 'It's okay, I know what you mean, I'm sure we can get there!' Hiro stares into Mio's eyes and says with fondness and encouragement.

'Of course we'll make it... At that time, we'll be able to...' Mio also looked at Hiro with fondness, her cheeks flushing pink as she shyly lowered her head...

A few days later, Mio came to the school's swimming pool to train alone on the weekend, still wearing the too-small one-piece swimsuit that left little to the imagination. The morning sun glinted off the water as the swim captain happened to be passing by not far away. It suddenly occurred to Mio that since the captain was so good at swimming and had years of experience, he might be able to help with her drop in grades. Mio quickly steps out of the pool, water streaming down her legs as she walks over to the captain with wet hair clinging to her neck and shoulders.

'Hey Captain, my grades have been dropping lately and I was wondering if you could help me out with some guidance. I'm willing to do anything if it will improve my grades...' Mio realizes that what she said was a bit inappropriate, her face turning crimson. 'I mean, any training...'
