Amad smiled mysteriously, “When I grow up, I want to be an athlete, so I need to spend a lot of time on training.”
“An athlete?” Alexis was surprised, “I didn’t realize that was your hobby, so what kind of athlete are you going to be, gymnastics? Or swimming?”
At Alexis’ expectant look, Amad replied, “I want to be a … weightlifter!”
Silence.
Deadly silence.
Anna, who was drinking water next to her, couldn’t even hold back and choked solidly.
Alexis was dumbfounded, “Why is it, you’re such a cute little girl, you don’t go to gymnastics or swimming, you choose to lift weights? Did you know that people who lift weights get really strong?”
Even, many kids were originally slim, but the coach would ask to gain a little weight so they could compete in higher seasons.
Doesn’t Amad love beauty?
But what Amad said out loud made Alexis start reflecting on herself.
Amad said, “Why is it that thin people are beautiful, I think chubby girls are beautiful too, and weightlifting is an honorable competition that can bring honor to many people, even to a country, it’s the same as gymnastics and swimming, so why is it inferior?”
To Amad, these are all the same.
“I envy those ladies who practice weightlifting, they say that they can eat lots and lots of good food, they don’t have to control their weight, and that when they lift weights, they are the happiest they can be.”
Said with, Amad wants to be a weightlifter too.
She also tilted her head to look at Anna, “And when I gain weight, Mommy won’t be constantly chanting for me to eat more, saying I’m skinny as a buttercup!”
Anna’s heart stirred hard.
Only after a long time, she pressed Amad’s shoulder, and said with extra seriousness, “Okay, if you want to be a weightlifter, then mommy will support you, after you get out of the hospital, mommy will take you to the gymnasium, how about it?”
Children, is to try more, find their favorite.
All roads lead to Rome, and not only those that look good, is good.
Being a weightlifter is also good!
“Thank you Mommy,” Amad was very happy, burying her head in Anna’s arms and rubbing it hard, then promised, “Even if it’s hard, I’ll still stick to it, and when the time comes, I’ll definitely bring the gold medal back to you!”
“Mommy wait!”
Alexis left with a complicated expression.
When she returned to Cedron, she couldn’t wait to tell him about it.
“Mr. Navarro, you say, Amad is such a cute little girl, how can she go to learn weightlifting, her arms will be practiced in the future, I don’t mean to say that having thick arms is unattractive, but I’m afraid that Amad will regret it!”
What if she retired from the sport but turned out to be a woman with muscles all over her body?
Alexis rambled on and on.
When she finished, she realized that Cedron didn’t react at all.
“Mr. Navarro, I’m talking to you, why are you ignoring me!” Alexis opened her mouth in depression.
Cedron still didn’t raise his head and continued to drum on his cell phone, “What reaction do I need to give you?”
“Amad is your daughter, aren’t you going to make a comment or do something.”
Anyway, get moving!
Cedron looked up slowly then, “Do do something, you’ll be in charge of delivering the stuff when it arrives later.”
What stuff?
“I bought some protective gear for little kids to lift weights, give it to Amad in your name.” Cedron replied.
