Ty was taken aback as new memories flooded his mind, memories of Matt, his new big brother. When Ty was adopted by this family Matt was already into bodybuilding for six years. Ty was 11 and Matt was 12 when they first meet and Matt instantly took a liking to Ty. Matt defended Ty from Dustin and other bullies.
As the years went by Matt’s love for Ty grew. At Ty’s request, Matt started to take Ty to the gym where Matt worked as a junior personal trainer. Matt became Ty’s personal trainer and for 3 years Matt trained Ty to be just like him. Currently, Ty had gain 40 pounds of muscle and was very strong.
As the new memories fainted into his mind and his body bulked up with muscles, Ty walked towards Matt, who smiled when Ty approached. “Hey Ty!”
The two brothers hugged which became uncomfortable for Ty because Matt was so strong that he was cutting the air supply to Ty’s lungs. “Matty…hard to breath…!” Matt realized what he was doing and immediately stopped hugging Ty. “Are you alright, Ty?” said a concerned Matt. After catching his breath Ty replied, “Yea, Matty. I am. Easy on the hugs next time, okay?”
“Sorry. I guess having muscles as big as these does have some disadvantages.”
To illustrate his point Matt raised his left arm and flex. His huge left bicep shot up. Ty was memorized. “Can I feel it?” Matt smiled, “Sure Ty.” Ty touched Matt’s bicep. Ohs and aws escaped Ty’s mouth as he felt the hard muscle. He let go and Matt relaxed his arm. “You must really be working on those arms, Matty?”
“Yea,” Matt smiled embarrassingly as he put a hand on the back of his head.
He then said, “Let me see your bicep, bro.”
Ty flexed his arm and even though the muscle was much smaller than Matt’s, Ty was still proud of it.
Matt touched it. “Not bad Ty.”
“But it is not like yours, Matt.”
“Ty, even the biggest bodybuilders started out small. You should be proud with the progress you already made.”
“Really,” Ty said.
“Ty Clark, you have the best genetics I have ever seen,” Matt said confidently. “I really believe you have the potential to be a great bodybuilder!”
“Whoa Matt, that means a lot!” Ty said.
“This is great,” Ty said in his head. He finally has a family member that cares about him.
