My Boxing Hero

Setting In

   That same day, Kontra decided that we should go out today and get some fresh air. He thought it would be good for me since I haven't been out, of the house since he found me.     He did promise that He'd be by my side while we're out. Following Kontra out to his Black 2500HD Chevy Silverado.

   I took in everything I could about it, his sleek black painted Chevy was lifted by 2-3 inches maybe more I wasn't sure though. I slowly walked over to the passenger side door where Kontra was patiently waiting for me, I noticed his windows were tinted so you couldn't see inside.  Getting up into the passenger seat I looked to see the interior was magnificent with carpet like seating and many buttons.
   He started the engine and backed out of the driveway, driving on the road we were quiet until about half way to  out destination when I asked,

 "Where are we going?"

"A fun place" replied Kontra smiling and giving a glance in the rearview mirror to look at Ava who had a grin on her face as she knew exactly where we were going.

"Its a fun place, its got a lot of things to do" stated in Ava in her cute little voice.

  Soon arriving at the "fun place" Kontra parked and we all got out and followed Kontra through the back door to see multiple boxing bags and a medium sized chorded ring in the middle of the room, there were lockers surrounding the ends of the spacious room im guessing where everyone puts their gear when they train.

I clung next to Kontra not knowing what to do, other than just following where he goes and maybe what he does, Ava had gone off to the main office and found the juice in the fridge and got herself a cup.   Meanwhile Kontra handed me a set of workout clothes and told me to get them on and come out over to him.   He pointed over to a women's bathroom and I went over to change.

Changing into a white crew neck t shirt and black sweatpants, I walked out of the bathroom and looked around for Kontra, finding him I made my way over to him and handed him the bag and waited for him to say something.         I could tell he wanted to say something but couldn't because of where we were and the fact that his daughter was here too.

"Come on" he said gritting his teeth and motioning for me to follow him to a corner, where we'd be able to practice and be to ourselves as well.

"Okay, I want you to know some defense. So when I'm not with you, you can defend yourself and not get hurt"  said Kontra smiling a little

Nodding in response I took the gloves he handed me and he helped me put them on properly.

"We'll start with the basics" said Kontra, "I want you to copy what I do"

I watched him as he threw a jab then a cross then two hooks before another jab, he stood back to watch as I attempted to show him what he did.     Smiling he knew I was just setting in and was gonna be good at this.
