1st Day at ‘Gym’

Posted by Asim

 Recently I planned to join a local gym not far from my home, infact that’s the main reason why I joined the gym, apart from something to keep me fit. We had joined the gym on 23rd April and decided to workout from the next day, one friend on mine called Moiz played the main role to get me up to the gym. We were working in 6.30 PM to 3.30 Am shift, had a home drop at 4:15 AM, it took nearly one hour for us to reach home. We already decided that we will pay the fees after coming back from the shift, and we did. The gym’s name is Raymond’s Gym, I entered the gym, an instructor pointed out at the my slipper’s as gym has a strict rule for no footwear inside the gym, I removed my slipper’s outside and then reached, the desk, here came the owner of gym, a man in his 50’s I believe, he said "Rs.400 per month, and Rs100 as the admin for the first month, for extension we would have to pay the same 400 per Month" we paid the fees’ he gave the id-card’s and said a strict voice "Get your own towels" we gave a strange look at each other. The next day Moiz called me, but I had a tiring day was fast asleep, usually I come home and sit on my desktop to watch movies, or may be connect to internet, if I can. (I still do not have a regular internet connection) I use the Mobile Office from Airtel (its suck’s). So back to business, we didn’t go to Gym on the 24 that is the next day when we paid our fees for the gym. Vice Versa the next, no we did not go the gym, the caller was me, Text Msg to Moiz "U R an Asshole". Called him the same after noon, it was Saturday, I had an off and he was working, he finally replied that we would be regular from tomorrow. The day proceeded and it was 6.04 Am 25 April, received a call from Moiz, he was back from shift, I got up did the usual stuff. This is the first day to Gym, ever in my life I was excited, how would it be?, what would I be doing?, will the coach help me?, I was wandering between these question’s and Moiz asked "Hey did u get the towel?" by the time we were half way to the gym, and I was not in a mood to go back, I said "no, what if he send us back?" Moiz showed he his and laughed, and we kept on moving, I was carrying my mobile and wallet in my hand, Moiz said "oh I forgot my id-card" now time for me to laugh, we shared something in common, he didnt want to go back. I was back wandering through my question’s who? Why? How? And what? We reached the gym "Sunday Closed" said the big board in front of the gym entrance; and slapped in our faces. We looked at each other and then started laughing to the core. We didn’t go to the gym but had a good time; we also went to favorite school time cafe "Mastan" for Lassi and finally back to home. (I think this was a prank played on me by Moiz.)
