Hey Jr.!

Chapter 9 - First 100 hours

"please always remember these Jr."

"I will, I promise" he responds immediately as if he's in a trance.

There was silence for a bit after that, when the sun was almost setting, they saw a guy approaching them from behind the building.

Siya narrows her eyes to get a better view of the person as he waves at them with a smile on his face.

"Is he waving at us?" Carlos asks also trying to figure out, but also waving back eitherways.

As he approached them he exclaimed "Siya! Is that you?"

And something clicks in Siya's head, her eyes go wide "Oh my god! Peter! It's you!?"

He bends down grabbing her hand and a giving her a quick hug.

"This is Carlos" she introduces him.

"Nice to meet you mate. I'm a fan!" He also gives him an hand shake with a smile.

"Oh thanks man!" Carlos says surprised "Appreciate it." He adds smiling back.

Peter looked like he belonged to the same age group as Carlos and Siya, probably in between them.

"I was just walking out of the wrestling ring and saw you guys" he says point his thumb back over his shoulder "I just thought I'll check who it is, but then saw that it's you!"

"The wresting ring? It's still there?" Siya asks surprised.

"Yes, as good as it was when they first made it! I come here whenever I get sometime to practice or to make sure everything is good." He adds.

"Can we see it? I haven't wrestled before" Carlos asks interested.

"Sure! This way" Peter points

"So you still do wrestle?" Siya questions Peter while they're walking.

"Yes! Just to stay in touch" he answers " How about you? "

"Me? Oh no no no, I haven't done anything close after we left this place" she says shaking her head.

"We used to wrestle as kids. For some reason Peter was into it and I used to copy him like crazy. So my mom thought it would be a good self defence too so she got us this part and a coach back then." Siya explains to Carlos, making sure he doesn't feel left out of the conversation and Carlos nods with an "Ooooh"

They are now at the ring, walking downhill was faster compared to when they climbed the hill to watch the sunset.

"Wow! Still the same!" Siya says taking it all in "atleast from what little I remember" she chuckles.

"Do you want to try?" Peter asks with a grin as he steps inside the ring.

"Not today. I'm already done for the day" Siya says smiling

"Ooooh, or are you scared you'll loose now?" He tries to agitate her while Carlos laughs.

"Your trash talk won't work on me Peter! You know that!" Siya says bringing her hands in the air, to her shoulders and shrugs.

"Whatever! How about you Carlos?" He asks

"Sure! I can give it a try" he says walking in.

Peter was on the leaner side so Carlos didn't know what to expect but to his surprise after a couple of trail games for explanation, when started a real match it took seconds for Peter to put Carlos down.

Peter stretches his hand for Carlos to get up.

"Wow!" Carlos exclaims "I did not expect that!"

"Do you know why I didn't budge?" Peter asks and Carlos nods a no "because my core is my strongest and you were targeting it. It's almost like targeting the neck of an F-1 driver!" He tries to bring in context "so from my quick analysis of my opponent, I thought the best I could do is to use your arm and flip you."
