Sonja Knight is a 23 year old who struggled with a mild form of Cerebral Palsy, always struggled to find her purpose in life. She calls condition 'A Gentle Disease'. Her parents always hard on her and she's finding it hard to fit in.
What happen whe...
I was wearing my black Nike tracksuit bottoms, black hoodie and my black high top converse. I walked into physical therapy today I felt lazy and didn't bother dressing up.
"Hi Beast! How are you?" I call out to Joe. He was wearing a black Metallica shirt, with some black tracksuits and trainers.
"Iron Lady I missed you! Are you ready to rock?" Joe asks me and I nodded, while putting my bag down and I took off my hoodie and stayed in my shirt.
We begin doing our warm up with marching in place and stuff. Then we moved onto the pull-up bar and I put on my gloves and I began to do some abs and core workouts hanging off. I was sweating bullets, I also did a few callisthenics exercises.
"Wow Sonja very good! You're getting stronger and leaner!" Joe says to me and I nodded. I had been implementing intermittent fasting and stuff making sure I didn't balloon in weight.
We took a little bit of a water break, and we were talking. God Joe was so awesome to speak too.
"What's happening with those boys then Sonja?" Joe asks me and I sighed. While playing the loose thread of my tracksuits.
"I was right Joe, they were so judgmental. I mean not all of them but the guitarist. Honestly I don't blame him." I whispered with a sigh.
"Why would you say that Sonja?" Joe asks me, I decided to tell him.
"You see although my mum was supportive of the way I was. She always pointed out how people looked at me differently because of my gait." I explain and he nodded. I felt sad that I couldn't let people in.
It was just letting in people led to disappointment and stuff, I didn't want to be judged so kicking out the possibility of having love and friends, I chose to close myself off.
Joe pulls me into a hug and sighs.
"You're brave you know! You're an Iron Lady, you know maybe you should give them a chance! I mean give them some time Sonja! You're absolutely amazing!" Joe says. We got up and got into it against.
We laid on the floor and he helped with a 70lbs weight and I did some hip thrusts with those, and then some bridges with a black resistant band. Then some crawls and stuff. God this session was intense!
"Alright let's get some stretches done!" Joe says while he helps me up and he gives me so hip stretches and hamstring stretches.
"Thanks Joe! You're the best!" I whisper hugging the tall muscular man and he embraces me in the warmest hug. It was around 12pm and head home. I took a shower and got ready for work and got dressed in:

I went to my forensic biology class since I had lab today, I was done by 2:45pm and went to work. I just hoped I didn't see the boys.
"Hi Patrick!" I said wirh walking inside, while I helped him with the inventory. My Dr Martens made some noise, while I walked around with a clipboard and pen and wrote down the CD and vinyl we needed to order.
