Weight Training Brings Results

That evening she called out to him,
after lifting weights, after sweating
next to each other, after hearing each
other’s breath
She called out to him between
snowflakes, to see if he might
want to do something
sometime…
they were both alone in
the world, everyone seemed
to be going home
to someone.
He turned towards her
and said yes
and a week later,
he pulled her towards him
and kissed her.
He will still never
admit such a bold
move, that shy Texas
boy.
