Kid

by Never Explain

As I walked into the gym, I saw all of the other soldiers staring at me.

I wonder what they are thinking…..

I started to set up some waits to bench. A stalky-looking kid, probably not a day over nineteen, dressed in a green beater and baggy black pants, was staring wide-eyed at me as I piled on weights.

He’ll go away..

He didn’t and now it was starting to irritate me.

“Can I help you?” I asked, turning my head to him and trying my best not to sound irritated.

He jumped back when I spoke.

“Y-you gonna lift those?” He stumbled.

“What do you think I’m here for?” I said, sarcasm dripping.

“C-can I see?” He said quietly.

I nodded, fastened the weights and lied down on the bench.

    Wow he is really afraid of him. Interesting, he must look very intimidating then.

    Sorta kinda, you can only look so intimidating in – a armored suit. They are afraid, he is very intimidating just cause they heard how dangerous he is.

    good.
    one note though- weights, not waits.
    Otherwise great!
