Forty-five minutes later and dripping with sweat, he put up the machine, taking care to wipe everything down first. He rinsed off in the shower and dr...ssed in his uniform, intending to practice after he ate breakfast. He grabbed the remote and closed the curtains, not wanting to forget in case Elaina came home earlier than he anticipated.He ate a light breakfast consisting of a fruit salad Elaina had left for him.
