Audrey Andrews was working at the gym, she had a clipboard in one hand and a measuring tape in the other. A young woman is standing in front of her, the woman has short black hair and is wearing a pair of black bike shorts and a black sports bra. Audrey wraps the measuring tape around her waist and makes some notes on the clipboard.
Audrey: You lost 2 inches, Daisy!
Daisy: Thank God, I don't think I've ever had that much sweat pouring down my back. So any ideas about this wrestling thing?
Audrey: Well I'm going to do it. Ken is suppose to bring over some videos and talk with me about it. Since he used to wrestler himself, I figured he'd be a great source to help me get started.
Daisy: You know you could get seriously injured, right.
Audrey: Yes I know Daisy. Maybe this isn't the ideal situation, but The Hunters can give me what I need most.
Daisy: I'll give you the money! You can pay me back from the profits or something.
Audrey: I have to do this on my own Daisy. Having to get you to co-sign was hard enough, thank you though. For being worried about me, I think I'll be fine though who knows I may even love it? Maybe me becoming a wrestler will turn out to be more than for the money. I could even become one the greatest women out in the ring. You never know.
Daisy: (shakes her head and laughs) You would...
Daisy hugs her best friend, they met in Middle school and had been best friends since. Daisy knew things about Audrey that no one else ever would, including everything about baby Olivia.
Daisy: You know I'll be here taking care of this place while you're gone. I won't let anything happen to it.
Audrey: (smiles at her friend) I know. And Thank you. You don't know how much I appreciate it. Daisy, you're always there for me, I don't know what I'd do without you.
The front door jangles, Daisy and Audrey turn and see a man about 6 foot tall and rather muscular walk through the front door with a bag in his hand. He smiles at the women.
Man: Hey ladies.
Audrey: Hi Ken.
Daisy: Ken...
Ken: She had her mind made up before I agreed to help her Daisy. I couldn't talk her out of it, I figured I'd help her learn the ropes so we can keep her from getting hurt.
Daisy nods and heads to the desk where a customer is waiting. Audrey motions for Ken to follow her to the back and upstairs where she lives in her tiny apartment. Audrey unlocks the door and opens it revealing a worn brown sofa and an old blue recliner. There is a scarred coffee table and end table as well as a little generic lamp. She motion towards the couch for Ken.
Audrey: Its not much, but its home...
Ken: Don't worry about it Aud, my first place was worse than this. It was infested with roaches..(shivers in disgust)
Audrey: Be thankful for the small things then , huh?
Ken: Absolutely.
Ken opens the bag pulling out several VHS tapes, he then hands her a pile of clothes. Audrey sits the VHS on her lap and opens the clothing. There is a navy halter top with a deep V-neck and a pair of navy pants that also have a slight V-shape at the top.
Ken: You need some proper ring gear and those are tapes of some of the greatest women wrestlers of all time. You need to watch those and get some ideas as far as moves go.
Audrey: Do you really think I can do this, Ken?
Ken: Yes, I do. You have heart Audrey. You may not be the biggest woman out there but you have so much heart, no one will beat you unless you let them. I've known people who couldn't make it out alive dealing with one thing you've dealt with, but look at everything you've dealt and you're still a great person. The things you've seen didn't make you into a bad person. You my dear, are going to make it big., I guarantee it. Power isn't everything, being the biggest, baddest bitch in the ring isn't all there is to wrestling. Winning isn't everything either. You go into that ring and show the fans the person you are and they will love you. You are already a physical person, athletic, I don't think you're going to have any problems at all. I'll be back tomorrow, you watch those videos, Ok? We'll talk and we'll practice some moves if you'd like.
Audrey: Thanks, Ken. Thank you for saying all that, you don't know what it means to me...
Ken stand up and kisses Audrey on the forehead.
Ken: For the last couple years that I've known you, I've gotten to feel like I had a daughter. I'm proud of you Aud. SO very proud of you.
Ken walks out the door leaving Audrey standing there with tears in her eyes and hope in her heart. She wipes her eyes and pops the first VHS tape into the VCR.
Audrey: You lost 2 inches, Daisy!
