    my life. Nothing good would ever come from dwelling on those things which were out of my control. That was something my father always tried to impress on me, that only those things in my control were worth worrying about. I guess it was time to heed his advice. I spent the afternoon working out at the gym. One of the perks of my job was having a membership at a local fitness center. It was a top-notch facility, complete with a swimming pool, showers and a sauna, along with state of the art equipment. I didn't take advantage of it as much as I should, but it seemed like a good idea to go work out and maybe help clear my head today. I've never had a weight problem, but my average build was in need of some serious toning. I requested a trainer to help me out when I first signed up at the gym and I was surprised when Lydia, a very fit and attractive trainer, was assigned to me. Lydia had a tight body, with smallish, yet firm breasts and an ass of steel. Add to that a pixie haircut framing a beautiful face and it was easy to become distracted during my workout. Lydia had a reputation of being something of a taskmaster, demanding that her pupils commit to complete dedication in their training regimen. For some reason, Lydia liked me. She always had a smile on her face and never gave me a hard time about my infrequent visits to the gym. I liked Lydia, but never made a move on her. Sometimes you have to show restraint in order to accomplish things, and I considered Lydia to be ...
    off-limits. Maybe that's why she liked me, because she felt safe with me, but it never stopped her from doing a little harmless flirting whenever I stopped by. Today was no exception. "Why hello, do I know you?" she teased. "If I didn't know better, I'd swear you are a dead ringer for Frank Beddoes, but he is much better looking than you are." "And hello to you, too, Lydia. You never seem to get tired of busting my balls, do you?" "Frank, you should know by now that I don't treat any of my others the way I do you. I'm a hardass, but I seem to have a soft spot for you. Otherwise, I'd be all over your skinny ass for showing up so infrequently. Seriously, how have you been?" "Lydia, I've had better days. Hell, I've had better months." "Let me guess, it's your love life, right?" "Is it that obvious Lydia? I've had a tough time lately and I'm trying not to let it show. I'm not succeeding, am I" "No, you aren't. I'm sorry to hear that. If you were dating me, you'd be smiling all the time, that's for sure!" See, that's where I'm not sure if she's teasing me or not. She makes some kind of remark about us dating or getting together every time I visit the gym. We got into the program she set up for me, heavy on the cardio to begin, followed by cool down periods and then on to the weights. It's about 60 to 90 minutes and I always sweat like a pig once we get into it. Lydia pushes me to do a little more each time, and I appreciate it. If I came to the gym regularly she would have me looking ...
