April was so happy. Garrett was walking around, posing and flexing all day long when he was home. Not only that, but all the horror stories about him getting bullied at school were now over. Nobody dared to bully him anymore! Lastly, April was thrilled to see his dedication to lifting weights, as he was spending every afternoon in the garage, lifting heavy plates and dumbbells in order to build his muscle even more.
So, April quietly wished for Garrett’s muscles to become super-responsive to weight training and exercise. Whenever Garrett did his workout, his muscles would respond right away, and he would instantly see the results. She smiled and looked forward to seeing her brother make dramatic muscle gains from now on!
Garrett did some arm curls in the garage with his dumbbells and his biceps immediately would swell up and become hard as rocks. When he did leg extensions and lunges, he would feel his quads bulge with muscle and power, and he would note the results right away when looking in the mirror. Gaining muscle seemed so easy!
So, the following day, when Garrett walked out, he was stopped by Alicia, the cute girl next door. April was looking out the window and she saw the exchange. Alicia asked Garrett if she could rub his biceps, and he obliged. He grinned as he proudly flexed his massive arms while she rubbed the bowling-ball muscle, kissing him on the cheek. It made April very happy to see that!
But there was an interesting development the next day! Garrett came walking home from school, and he was carrying two BOYS on his big, broad shoulders! Eric and Kyle had hitched rides on Garrett’s massive shoulders and Garrett was more than happy to walk home with the two boys sitting, each one on either side of his shoulders. April’s jaw dropped to the floor when she realized how strong her little brother had become!
When Garrett squatted down to let the boys off, they both talked and took turns rubbing Garrett’s giant muscles. April grinned when she saw the admiration that the boys had showed towards her little brother. He had finally earned some respect!
But then the boys did something else. Each one hugged and kissed Garrett on his flexed biceps as well. Wow! What did that mean? They did that before they ran off to their homes, just down the street. When Garrett walked in the house, he was extremely happy.
“Garrett? Are those your friends from school?” April asked him.
“Oh yeah, those are Eric and Kyle!” Garrett replied. “Kyle might come over later on tonight.”
“He’s coming over to study?”
“Oh, no! Kyle’s my new boyfriend!”
“Oh? What about… Alicia?” April wondered.
“We’re going on a date this weekend as well! Pretty cool, huh? I got a girlfriend and a few boyfriends!”
“Wow! You’re Mister Popular now!” April chuckled.
“Yup! I gotta hit a quick workout before my date!” Garrett smiled as he changed clothes and ran off to the garage…
