[center][h1][color=f7976a]Xia Alexander[/color][/h1][/center] [center][h3]Monday Evening - Luna Sports Facility (Her office to Baseball Bananza)[/h3][/center] The weekend wasn't so bad. Just spending time with the her girlfriend and constantly getting annoyed by her cousin who seems to get off from the random arguments and bickering he'd cause. Saturday wasn't so bad. She spent the night with her lover, watching some movies and keeping things a bit positive. Might say there were a few tender moments they had so that Xia could reassure Marlin that she was still with her. Other than that, it was another typical weekend. Sunday, nothing major happened. Xia would spend the evening thinking of possible ways she could get her business to become bigger to the point that she could make her own massage parlor or basically use her home as such. After a nice long day, Xia was getting prepared for heading out to catch the baseball game for a little. She was not a huge baseball fan but hey, it's still a sport and she loved competition. She was closing up for the night after getting her shower and getting her clothes on that she'd wear this evening out. Short shorts with a a baseball jersey of a team from back home. It was an open shirt with a black undershirt and sported a blue cap. Getting her gym bag closed, she was about to head out. It was a bit quiet though. Usually there were still a few staff still around but maybe some were leaving early but regardless, something felt a bit off. Xia walked around the locker room. [color=f7976a]Is anyone else in here?[/color] She asked but there was no answer. She scanned the area and gave a sigh before turning around only to immediately see out the corner of her eye, a tall figure behind her wearing a hoodie. [color=f7976a]Oh fuck!![/color] She quickly turned screaming and swung her arm to punch the figure in the face, dropping the guy. Hearing the groaning, Xia was in fighting stance ready to whoop someone's ass but this individual was holding his face. "I'm sorry! I didn't mean to scare you!" The person said, leaving Xia to still stay in her stance. [color=f7976a]What the hell? Who are you and why the hell are you in here?[/color] She asked. The guy looked over. "I was waiting out in front but there was no one at the desk. I was wanting to speak to a trainer...someone by the name of Xia Alexander...I was needing to see her because my doctor recommended her for me to meet with." Xia stared at him and sighed. [color=f7976a]Come on get up...[/color] She said holding her hand out. The male took her hand and he stood. [color=f7976a]Someone would've met with you. But you need to be careful. Sneaking up on a black girl will get you an ass whoopin. I'm Xia...the one you're looking for.[/color] The guy stared at her. "Oh...sorry about that. I was too hasty and wanted to meet with you." [color=f7976a]You said that your doctor recommended me right?[/color] "Yes, yes!! Doctor Cook. He said he knows you. I was in an accident and he said I need rehab and you're on the top of his list to come and see." Xia raised an eyebrow. [color=f7976a]Oh...I see..[/color] She motioned for him to leave the locker room area and to head back out in the front. [color=f7976a]Yeah I know Dr. Chauncey Cook...pretty cool and funny guy. And I do specialize in physical therapy. Do you have an appointment?[/color] She asked. "No...I was just coming in to see if you could see me asap" With a bewildered expression she had, Xia looked him up and down. [color=f7976a]Um...things don't work that way here, sweetie. You have to call in to make an appointment. It's not a first come first serve basis.[/color] "Can you just...slide me in somewhere?" He asked. [color=f7976a]What's your name?[/color] "I'm Stanley Perrin..." He told her. [color=f7976a]Okay...look Stanley, I can't just slide someone in like that. You'd still need to make an appointment. That's our policy for that. Not that I don't want to help but I have several clients and I can't just fit you in because it will throw off the others that already have appointments.[/color] Stanley was starting to look a little flustered and anxious. "Please!!! I can't use certain medications for my pain because it will have negative effects on me. All I'm asking is for a bit of help please!! I'll get on my knees to beg if you'd just see me asap!" Xia was getting a bit uncomfortable with this guy by how he was acting and one of the other trainers came out. [color=8dc73f]Xia are you okay?[/color] He asked. Xia looked over. [color=f7976a]Yeah I'm....I'm fine...just speaking with a potential client.[/color] She said as the other trainer stared. Xia sighed once again. [color=f7976a]Stanley...calm down okay. Look...[/color] She grabbed a pen and paper. [color=f7976a]If you give me your number and I'll write your name down. I'll give this to one of our people at the front desk and see if there's any openings tomorrow to put you on. I'll have someone give you a call tomorrow. Is that okay?[/color] Stanley stood up. "Yes! That's fine! Thank you!!" He told her, giving her his number. She wrote all the information she needed before taping the note on one of the desk tops. [color=f7976a]Someone will check first thing in the morning and get back with you okay? Now...I have to leave okay?[/color] The guy nodded. "Alright....thank you....you're very kind!" he said while she nodded. [color=f7976a]Uh-huh...thanks...you take care and I'll see you soon.[/color] As he left, she looked at the other trainer as if she just ran into some nutcase. She slightly chuckled and shook her head before getting on her phone. She sent Marlin a text. [color=f7976a]"Baby, I'm leaving the gym. I'm heading to the game right now."[/color] While she was leaving, the same guy, Stanley, was watching Xia walk off. His eyes didn't leave her, following her movements while taking in her physique and pretty facial features until she'd turn the corner and was no longer in his line of sight while keeping himself hidden from the view of others before he's leave as well.
