One week later.

It had been 15 minutes since Seth was in his first physiotherapy session. He was laying on the patients bed, still nervous as a series of thoughts came to his head at that moment while his physiotherapist checked on him. His physiotherapist seemed to be a nice and a welcoming guy. Seth still had to know his name. It looked like he was pretty young. Perhaps he looked younger than his age.

What got Seth nervous was the physiotherapist checking on his broken knee. It was Monday, which meant that what would happen to the WWE title would be decided on Raw that night. How bad he wished the physiotherapist would tell him that his knee was all good and he was fit enough to walk so that in the next moment he could just run out of the hospital and attend the Raw event that evening. But that was not possible. He moved his attention towards his therapist and stared at him with pleading eyes, even though he knew the therapist would never give him a good news.

The pale skinned therapist looked back at Seth and smiled. His looks were pretty much Asian. Seth liked the way how the latter's eyes curved as he smiled. "Hello Mr. Rollins, sorry I didn't introduce myself earlier. My name is Teddy James Perkins and from now on you'll be having all of your physiotherapy sessions with me."

"N.. Nice to meet you." Seth smiled nervously.

The session started soon after and Perkins could sense how nervous Seth was on his first physiotherapy session. "Okay, now relax your body. Don't move. Don't stress yourself out and just relax," said Perkins in a calm voice which soothed Seth as he tried to relax his body. "I'll try to move you now and make you lay on your side. Okay?" continued Perkins and gently pushed Seth's body, making him lay down on his side. Seth's knee was aching but he clenched his jaws together, trying not to make a sound. But he soon failed and let out a shriek as Perkins caught hold of his right leg and tried to bend the injured knee carefully. Perkins stopped as soon as he heard the scream whereas Seth then said, "I'm sorry. Please continue."

"Are you okay? I'm sorry but you've to bear it for a moment. You'll be fine. I just have to examine something." said Perkins and continue to move Seth's right leg carefully, trying to bend the knee portion. Seth closed his eyes out of pain, trying not to scream. "Perkins, are you out to kill me today, or what?" Seth screamed inside his head. His face went red as he was even holding his breath. A few seconds later, the therapist let go of Seth's leg and Seth released his breath in a relaxed manner.

"Mr. Rollins, you're quite tough! Are you okay?" said Perkins patting Seth on his shoulder.

"I'm okay," breathed Seth. Perkins then excused Seth for about a minute and went over to his table writing something on his records so that Seth could catch his breath and relax.

Perkins went over to Seth's bed and then helped Seth sit up, holding him by the back of his waist. The rest of the session was not as horrible as the first half of it as his right knee was treated with a warmer.

"You did pretty well. You'll progress soon and I can guarantee you that, Mr Rollins." said Perkins as soon as the session ended.

"Thank you," smiled Seth. "Well you can just call me Seth." Seth really liked the personality of his therapist and found him cool.

"Well in that case Seth, you can simply call me TJ." Perkins smiled back and at the next moment, they shook each other's hands.

Seth came back to his room relaxed and wanting to sleep. He lay himself down on the bed in order to take a nap while the manager was somewhere else in the hospital, perhaps talking to the doctor that worked on Seth. The fact that the physiotherapy session was now over, and also that the therapist was really kind, made him feel like a great weight get removed from his chest. He took a quick nap soon after.
