When I awoke, I could tell immediately that something was off. He had feigned excitement for both of our accomplishments like the supportive friend I thought he was, but in the harsh daylight of the following morning his true feelings were unveiled. Everything changed the day after I placed ahead of him for the first time ever in competition. A dynamic in our friendship that I had never paid much attention to, but I’d come to find out was crucially important to him. I suppose the last of those was something we still technically shared, if you could even call what I’m doing living anymore. We practically did everything together, we trained together, competed together and eventually lived together. That man once being my gym buddy and best friend. It’s hard to remember that just a few short years ago I looked like the man on video in front of me. It was a familiar sight to me having once lived in that same world. The call connected to show him in a convention center, all tanned up. What could it be this time? There was only one overarching reason why he would ever call, to humiliate me by flaunting his taught, strong body. The familiar noise of the video call coming in pulled me out of my normal trance.
