Ch- 20 Stalking Coach Sid

Kiara's pov

As per my sleep schedule, I woke up around 5 in the morning. Cursing my alarm clock for spoiling my sleep. But I was still feeling guilty for my outburst with Coach Sid. I will apologize to him today..

Anyways, dad was not home today, so I decided to go to my normal practice ground (the one where Sid trains Kiara) for morning walk.

When I reached there, I heard Sid's voice. He was screwing someone at 5:15. Poor whoever. But I was curious to know who it was and what was Sid doing here in the ground at this hour in the morning? Then I walked nearer to them and hid behind a tree. It was Nick. Omg. Sid was still screwing him. Wasn't the punishment he gave him yesterday enough!

Nick was now a mess- running across the field doing modified suicides. Sid would wait for him with a pretty set, at one end without giving him any break.

But what caught my eye was Sid doing his own workout. I've heard people saying how much he loves to roger others by just push-ups. Well, I've already witnessed it yesterday.

He didn't go easy on himself either. I saw him doing many types of push-ups with hardly any break. He would match his sets with Nick's suicides and change his own when he completes one. After almost half an hour of non-stop suicides and workouts, Nick was shaking and breathless.

He failed to get up from his last burpee of the morning, earning a few curses from Sid who had now changes to crunches.

After a few minutes of getting oral training, he was allowed to go. I expected Sid to go back too, but I was surprised to see him continue. He took out a stop watch and did his workouts in sets according to the watch this time.

It took me some time to realise that he was trying to do sets of sixty in one minute.

How can a man finish 60 crunches or 60 burpees or 60 pull-ups in just one minute?

He did six types of crunches in back to back sets followed by a minute's break. It was funny to see him grunting and caressing his fried abs.

Next were pull-ups and by the end I was afraid he might fall off in that momentum. His loud breaths confirmed that he was struggling to keep up the pace.

His timer made the 'ding' sound before he could finish 60 and he let out an annoying squeak. He kept pulling up and did ten extra. So that was his way of punishing himself for crossing the time limit.

Dropping back down and giving himself another thirty second break, he started with burpees, leg raises, and flutter kicks.

If my ears were good at their only jib of counting the dings, his plank lasted nothing less than 4 minutes!

If I were to do a plank after everything he did, I wouldn't last even 40 seconds. Four minutes were just too much!

It was great to see him pushing himself- the man who cruelly pushes everyone else. But there was one thing I noticed. He reacted like a normal man. He would grunt, make sounds of disappointment, mutter curses under his breath instead of keeping a poker face and hiding the fact that he was struggling and getting tired. He wasn't behaving like a superhero who doesn't feel pain or exhaustion. Instead he looked like just a normal person working himself out of his limits.

He was in middle of his knuckle push-ups when his phone rang. Stopping mid-way, he got up and answered it.

"What is it?"

.

"Can't it wait for an hour? I was going to gym now."

.

"60 in 60. Though I sucked at pull-ups and plank." Ah the disappointment.

.

"But-"

Oh man! He was nodding quietly like a child being scolded.

"Fine. I'll do three. And thanks for gifting me one less hour of sleep." What!? I just couldn't understand what was going on?

.

"When else do you think I'll get time for gym?"

.

"Fine sir, I'll have a 6 hour sleep. Now can I continue?" That's pure sarcasm.

.

"See you in twenty."

He completed his set of knuckle push-ups and kept his stop watch back into his pocket.

And then he climbed the pole again to complete three sets of thirty pull-ups each, without timing- I think, and except if he was doing the mental counts and timing stuff.

Getting down, wiping the sweat off his forehead, he bent down, and did a handstand.

Before I believe my eyes, he started doing Handstand Push-ups.

I stood there surprised while he did thirty pushups gracefully and slowly, never falling or loosing balance.

Slowly he lowered his legs and stayed flat on ground breathing for a few minutes. I have never seen someone doing Handstand Push-ups ever before, just heard about it being very difficult. I wonder if Nick can do it too!

Meanwhile, he got up and walked away.

This was the first time I saw him working on himself. No doubt he expects everyone to be fit when he doesn't cut himself any slack. This seems too impressive to be real.

I wonder how much of a badass he must have been during his training days. And how cruel must have been his trainer to get him where he is today.

I saw just a part of his routine, since his gym plans were ruined by someone. And I don't even have the idea that at what time did he come to the ground? By the amount of sweat, I can just guess that he was here atleast for the past 3 hours, if not more!

Then I slowly started walking towards my home, lost in deep thoughts, only to be met by a very pissed-off Paul.

"What happened Paul? Why are you so angry?"

"Really? Are you asking me what is wrong? Do you have any idea what time it is? And where the hell were you? Atharv tried to search you everywhere, only to be found by no signs of you? You know how much worried we were? And your phone was also in your room. Why didn't you keep it with you? And most important, Why did you not tell any of us where you are going? This is so irresponsible of you Kiara?"

"Calm down geez! I am fine. I just went around for a walk?"

"What? Why are you being so stupid kia? Do you know what time it is?"

"What!? Maybe around 6:30 or 6:45."

"Its 7:45 now. Your school has already started 15 minutes ago."

"What!? Is Atharv gone?"

"Yes. Now hurry and dress up fast. I'll drive you to school."

CRAP! CRAP! CRAP! My first class is with Headmaster Pierce. He'll literally kill me for getting late. Now, I realise how stupid I was to see Coach Sid working out and lost the track of time.
