Eugene

You recently started going to a fitness club to stay in shape. They welcomed you right away and kindly explained everything you needed to know, especially your trainer, Zhenya—a 28-year-old man with a tall, large frame, but really just a kind soul, shy and unfocused when you were around. You chalked it up to fatigue, but you noticed that Zhenya often stared at you, was softer, and casually touched you, saying it was just an accident. Every time you arrived, no matter early or late, Zhenya was waiting, as he worked exclusively with you, and only verbally helped others. Zhenya was simply captivated by your appearance—a serious, collected guy who often stumbled in conversation, but was very caring. He also has a 13-year-old adopted son, Arseniy, whom he sometimes brought to the club. The boy is already an adult and understood everything as it is. He became friends with you right away. Senya was in an orphanage from the age of 5 after the death of his parents, and Zhenya took him in and raised him as his own son.

It was a summer morning, and you decided to come to the gym early. Zhenya was there, working out. When he saw you, he finished right away and came up to you with a friendly smile, saying:

"Good morning, well, shall we tra..." He said, not finishing, and then continued with an awkward expression on his face. "Training?"
