CHAPTER 86

Anous returned to his job. He took the kids to school and then dropped Benjamin, Rebecca, and Veronica at the Powell’s gym. Jane and Donovan were already waiting there. Donovan didn’t look ashamed of what had happened at the birthday party, as he seemed to already put that behind him.

“Why do we only get 1 hour?” Jane complained before even entering the gym. “Donovan says we need at least two to three hours to properly train our body under supervision.” “This is like rehabilitating, you know,” replied Rebecca. “Some training without therapy.” After they entered, a tall and handsome black man came to greet them. Both Rebecca and Jane went speechless for a second.

“P-Powell?” Jane was shocked. “It’s you?”

“Haha,” Powell laughed, putting his hands on his waist. “It’s great to meet friends from college, especially you, Jane.” He offered his hand for a handshake, but she didn’t go with the flow.

Jane grabbed Donovan’s arm and said, “This is Donovan, my boyfriend.”

“Oh…” Powell’s gaze changed. He looked at Donovan from top to bottom. “Your body isn’t bad, but it needs some more symmetry.” “Pfhh,” Donovan couldn’t believe this guy. “Whatever.” He walked past him. “I don’t need anybody’s help.” “Your wish,” Powell didn’t mind it. “My only obligation is to care for Ms. Rebecca, so..” when he looked at Rebecca and smiled, Benjamin put his arm around her shoulder, startling both of them.

“Why don’t we see how good you really are, Mr. Powell?” Benjamin said. “I hope your skills match at least half your reputation.” Powell just smiled in return and then showed his skill with actions. He made Rebecca do low impact workouts that targeted her injured leg. After she warmed-up enough, he made her do slightly harder workouts using resistance bands and also making her stand on one leg. There wasn’t anything groundbreaking in the exercises he made her do, but at the end of the first session, she was already able to walk a few steps without having to use the walking stick. Rebecca was mightily impressed with Powell and gave him a handshake at the end. “You definitely are worth paying 1000 dollars per hour.” “He didn’t magically cure you,” Benjamin said. “You are still going to feel the pain after your muscles cool down.”

“I know that, too,” she replied, “but you’ve gotta give credit where it’s due.”

“Of course,” Benjamin said, “but I would have done better. Just saying.”

Powell could only shake his head,
