“He went to see the stallions, I tell you,”
evandro almost overreacts in his blue Yaris with a pop song in the background,
maybe Backstreet Boys.
“And what about if that was the issue,
man?,” Osmar smiles at him. “Neither he saw us naked in the backstage.”
“Sure indeed, dork, because he has got
everything during the play. I bet you they do give you the job.”
“Fuck! I prefer not to make illusions.”
“I know Escalante, Osmar – it’s his modus
operandi.”
“Based on that theory, then he went to see
me, don’t you believe?”
“Fuck him, dork. Fuck him! It’s the only
way you leave poverty.”
Osmar prefers to smile.
The next morning, Friday, when Evandro
finishes his training session, the boy who has congratulated him the previous
morning while taking a shower gets him close.
“What’s up, champion?,” the aactor greets.
“I couldn’t go to the theater – I wanted to
see the play again.”
Osmar gets both close.
“Don’t worry,” Evandro continues smiling.
“The season follows until the end of month, so you easily can go wherever you
can.”
“You ready, Gibran?,” the trainer greets at
least. “Today is legs day.”
“Guys,” the boy clears throat. “As you are
here, I’d invite you to a meeting in my house tomorrow night. Don’t you gotta
do anything Sunday morning or what?”
Evandro and Osmar see each other.
“Sleeping late,” the first one answers.
“Well, I’d like to invite you, just in case
you can go.”
“Is it any type of celebration in special?”
“My birthday,” Gibran blushes.
Evandro and Osmar see each other again.
“Well, leave me your address with this big
hunk and we’ll come around tomorrow.”
“May you, seriously?,” Gibran excites.
“Yes, we may,” Osmar confirms. “But first,
we’re gonna work out your calves, tights, and ass. Do you agree?”
“Great!,” the granter enjoys, as he goes to
the lockerroom.
Hiding, Evandro joins his index and bold
left fingers and make them beating as he looks at Osmar who shakes his head and
smiles as he is on his way.
“Go taking a shower,” he notifies his
trainee before.
The Osmar’s work time at Steel Fit Gym
officially begins at six in the morning, although he actually arrives half an
hour before (the most with Evandro after jogging from the building where they
live) for cleaning a little and getting ready to have the first pupils. Just
before six, he takes advantage to taste the first portion of his breakfast.
Then, he tries the next portion around nine or ten when the trainees load has
fallen a bit. If he has two or three pupils, he takes the time to train until
before noon when he takes a shower and has lunch with other portion in the
gym’s mini-kitchen. If not, he will wait for time gets over at two, taking
advantage the other trainer comes in, to do his routine, taking a shower, and
just tasting the portion at four.
That Friday is one of these days when after
nine, he has six new pupils, so he can’t uncare and he has to monitor them
mandatorily. So he gets no more remedy than training at two in the afternoon.
While he takes the shower at the gym, he
thinks of two things: first, since his arrival to Peru, pleasures that he
initially could enjoy at his home like the bath, he has to do it now at a
public space – and, secondly, that after eating his fourth daily portion, he
has to get back the building to organize his bedroom a little for eating his
fifth portion at six and a half, then the last one already at the theater,
where he arrives at nine, three quarters of hour before the curtain opened.
At four in the afternoon, people just begin
to come in the facility, so it’s impossible not matching two or three trainees
in the lockerroom who Osmar greets with kindly and he takes off the towel. He
doesn’t care if they see him as God generously brought him to life. In fact, he
has learned that modesty is a very focused concept, that only must be respect
and promote in public spaces, but in private, or at the theater or in front a
camera, the nudity is the most natural. Even, when he is closed in his bedroom,
he prefers going nuts.
The fact is, after going out the shower and
dressing on, he turns on his cellphone and a lot of notifications begin to come
in. A same number tries to get him. He calls back.
“Osmar! I’m trying to pick you up,”
somebody says him on the phone.
“Yes, Mr Escalante, it’s I was training, I
was in the shower, and…”
“Doesn’t matter, bro. Come to my office
when you just can because I need to talk with you.”
Will it be Evandro matched his forecast?,
he thinks.
