Day 28: Doing Something Ridiculous


"Ready?"

"Ready."

"You sure you don't wanna back out?" Jim asked.

Kate flashed his a quick glare.

"Just count." she said

"Okay," he said. "On three. One. Two. Three!"

Jim and Kate pushed with all their might, their arms trembling as they held each other back. Jim grunted and squeezed Kate's hand. A bead of sweat appeared on her forehead. She wasn't as strong as Jim was; in fact it was taking all of her strength to not cave in. However, one burst of strength was all Jim needed to knock her arm against the table.

"I win!" he said, smirking triumphantly at Kate, who was nursing her smarting arm.

"I demand a rematch!" she said, not wanting to be outdone by her cheeky classmate, even if it was just arm-wrestling.
