There hadn’t been time that particular morning for Grandfather to show me the weight room, so I had to wait until after school. When the final bell had rung I launched myself from my desk, ran out of the classroom and the school before anyone could stop me. I didn’t even bother to go back to my locker. I had run all the way home only to find that except for Micah, no one else was there.
Finding the basement turned out to be easier than I had expected. You see, my grandparent’s home is huge and I’ve gotten lost in it on more than one occasion. When I arrived home and realized that yet again my parents and grandparents were both out, I raced to the kitchen where I found Micah.
